Summary: An Amazing Workout
Comment: Wow!!!! I just received it today and it's fantastic. It's been years since I've exercised and I really need to get back in shape. I'm 5'9 and BEFORE I had my baby I weighed 125 lbs and could wear anything I wanted. I now weigh 160 lbs (I recently lost 16 lbs) and my baby's 6 years old! I have tried all the fad diets and nothing has worked. I'm finally ready to get back to the basics...less calories and more exercise! With self discipline and the help of Step Reebok Circuit Challenge..I am positive that I'll reach my goal and rediscover my former self.

Summary: This is a good work-out video, beginner or advanced.
Comment: I had been working out at a gym for about 1 year and decided to start working out at home. I bought a tape and used it for about a year and needed a new one. I bought Gin Miller's tape and at first was uncomfortable with the camera work. And really, who needs to watch the musicians when you want to watch the foot work of the people you're trying to follow! There are plenty of repeat steps to help you catch on if your a beginner, but they can become boring if you're advanced. I've had to crank it up to keep my interest.

I noticed that her counting is off in one spot, some moves she has you do a set of 4, sometimes a set of 5 and sometimes a set of 6. I am of the mind set that a set of 4 is the normal. So it was a little odd at first, but you get over it.

There is no time allowed to get that drink of water. So keep your bottle near by and sneak it in when you can.

I've used this tape for 2 years now. I have been bored with it from time to time, but seem to come back to it. I always work up a sweat with this tape, even 2 years later. I have introduced ankle weights and use both lifts on my step.

I'd suggest before using this video, to have some experience under your belt by going to a gym to learn the basics. 3 visits on a consistant basis would do the trick.

Overall, I'd say this is a great video because it does incorporate cardio and toning. There doesn't seem to be anything like it on the market. After the cool off segment I do my own floor exercises to finish it off. Doing this 3 days a week has helped me lose weight and maintain the weight loss for 2 years!

Summary: Go For It!
Comment: This is my first Gin Miller video and I must say I was really challenged! I just love her enthusiasm! I haven't worked out in a while and it definitely "pumped me up." It is for all levels (believe me, just starting out again, I'm definitely a beginner), but it challenged me to work up to the intermediate and advanced level. I also recommend you use weights instead of tubing if for no other reason, to keep up. The fast pace makes it a little difficult to alternate between the strength training and cardio without having to pause the tape (and I hate to do that). I nearly killed myself the first time I did it! But if you are looking to build muscle from strength training and burn calories from cardio all in one, this is no doubt the workout for you!

Summary: Fast Paced Bordom Fighter!
Comment: If you're bored with your workouts and/or want to get maximum benefit from your time this workout is for you. It consists of three 10 minute blocks of circuit training. The blocks fly by very fast because you switch frequently between cardio and strength. No way you'll get bored! Your heart rate may slow a bit on the strength section, but if you put more effort into the cardio section it is like doing windsprints, which can greatly improve your cardiovascular fitness. You will see results with this video. You can do all three circuits, or just one or two.

The video shows most of the people using an exercise band for the strength sections. I use free weights and they work fine for me. You really need a variety of sizes of weights--I use 8 and ten pound dumbells.

Gin Miller is a great instructor. She is intelligent and has a good sense of humor. She has great muscular legs! Her cuing is good and she never patronizes you.

Don't worry about the reviewers who say they weren't working hard enough. You WILL get a good workout. And if it gets too easy, raise the level of your step platform and add power moves!

Summary: Good moderate-intensity, all-around workout
Comment: The stepping/resistance training cycles keep this video interesting, with a good combination of moderate-intensity cardio and strength exercises. The cueing is good. I do not mind the changing camera angles or the shots of the live musicians, but it might not be everyone's cup of tea. I worked up a sweat, but my heart rate did not ever get very high. For a really intense aerobic workout, Reebok Intense Moves with Gin Miller is much better, as is Kathy Smith's Fat Burning Breakthrough.
