5.0 out of 5 stars A Fun and Effective Cardio Fat Burner!, April 18, 2004

This review is from: Trainer's Edge - Cardio Interval Training with Petra Kolber (DVD)

Sure, the title is misleading. This workout should be called circuit training because it's a combination of cardio and weights. Nonetheless, I love this workout! It is fun and effective in a short amount of time. You can make the moves harder by exaggerating your moves and using heavier weights. Even though you use weights, I would still consider this a cardio workout since the weight segments are too short anyway. This workout is suited for beginners/intermediates. As with most exercise videos, there is always a way if you want to add more intensity - MODIFY!

5.0 out of 5 stars Calling all Baby Boomers, May 2, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Trainer's Edge - Cardio Interval Training with Petra Kolber [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I have been an avid exerciser for 15 years, doing a lot of the Firm Videos. As I'm getting older, and my joints are getting more sensitive, I've been looking for a tape to get my heart rate up and really provide a good workout. This one is it! The Cardio is excellent and well cued and the balance and core work along with a little yoga thrown in is a great bonus. I can't recommend this tape strongly enough. Good going Petra!

This review is from: Trainer's Edge - Cardio Interval Training with Petra Kolber (DVD)

Exceptionally well-cued, it includes both faster-slower cardio intervals and short toning segments. This gives you a good chance to catch your breath. You will burn fat for sure. You will need 2 to 5 lb. dumbbells for the toning and you'll need lots of energy for the aerobic portions. I like this kind of routine where you do intervals. This is what tempted me to buy this and I'm not sorry for doing so. Petra is a good instructor who knows her stuff and you'll love this I know.
