Certified instructor description: A compact and well-designed aero/tone interval program that packs a lot of fat burning into just 31 minutes. You'll get maximum results with its fast tempo and quick-changing exercises (beginners beware it never slows to breakdown the moves). There are two cardio segments: a lower-impact series at the start and power-burst sequence at the end (e.g. plyo jumps, high-impact runs). The toning is choreographed and creative mostly compound upper-and-lower-body exercises plus balance routines. It's led by Emily Welsh who demonstrates superb cuing and excellent transitions. Lower impact options are shown. Requires two sets of dumbbells (e.g. 3 and 5 lb.). ©2008.
