Certified instructor description: A straight-forward aero/tone interval workout that's demonstrated at three fitness levels (beginner to intermediate). The idea is that you can start at one level, then move up to a higher one as you get stronger. Each of the three 18 to 20-minute segments has the same format. They begin with calorie-burning cardio — basic floor moves for beginners, with a step aerobics option for intermediate exercisers. That's followed by upper and lower-body toning that often works both areas at the same time. It ends with a solid set of ab-focused floorwork. Then the entire sequence is repeated a second time before moving on to the next segment. Note: While the "three levels" concept is interesting, it does make the program a little difficult to follow (e.g. while she's showing the beginner exercises, you're waiting for the intermediate level). Requires 2 to 5 lb. dumbbells; a step is optional. ©2011. DVD has: Chapter menus, Wide screen.

Custom 3 Fit: Cardio & Strength Interval Circuit

good workout

I liked this workout- though kind of confusing as to alot of levels of intensity shown & very fast- you definitely get a solid circuit traning/interval workout- work up a sweat & also tone muscles- overall it is a keeper for me-might be a little to hard for beginners to catch on & keep up with account of how fast the moves are done. - posted by donna on 3/14/2012

Great overall workout DVD.

This is the first time I have purchased her DVD. And let me tell you it was surprising good. I followed level 3 the entire time for a very challenging workout. The three different level options they show you are very convenient. She does 3 minutes of cario followed by 2 minutes of toning and 2 minutes of abs. Great overall workout. - posted by Georgia on 2/2/2012

Lots of variety but advanced...

I agree with the other comment that said this workout is too fast. The workout is OK but I was disappointed with the pace of the workout...I am intermediate but the pace is so fast that you really need to be in shape to follow, even if there are 3 levels, the pace is way way too fast for my taste. The instructor is good, the workout would have been, in my opinion, so so much better if the pace was not as fast. - posted by Melissa on 1/26/2012

A great one

I just did the entire workout, it was great. I don't know if I was more tired than the other day but this workout seems more inter/advanced than intermediate. I appreciate the 3 levels, when it`s too tough you can switch to another level. After 60 minutes, I broke a sweat and felt my muscles. I'll include this one on my rotation. - posted by Claire on 1/23/2012

This workout is crazy FAST....TOO FAST!

Wow...I hurt myself doing this workout...It's ridiculously fast...How can anyone have proper form when its fast like that...I was really dissappointed because the instructor is good and the concept is very good BUT...unfortunately, I will return this workout...I can't do it. - posted by Lola on 1/18/2012

Variety Galore!

I did this video as one workout, so that's how I'm reviewing it. Even at the most advanced, Level 3, I don't think the individual 18 - 19 minute segments would make a sufficient workout. That said, I loved this workout. The warmup is quite easy so I was dubious that it would be much of a challenge, but was I wrong! Angie very clearly directs the three segments of intervals on three fitness levels, numbered 1 to 3, one being beginner and 3 being advanced. Each segment starts with 3 minutes of cardio followed by about 3 of toning, then 2 of abs, after which you repeat everything once more to complete it. She demos each move at level 1, and adds on variations for each of the higher fitness levels. I found it very easy to follow and totally grooved on the variety. Second time around, Angie even gave variations on her variations! Something I really love is the countdown "stopwatch" in the lower righthand corner showing you exactly how much time is left in each round. On this video, the first circuit is really challenging, the second one less so, and the final one a bit tougher again. Angie encourages you to match your fitness level to the correctly corresponding level in the workout; "I want you to succeed!" I have only two minor complaints, neither enough to eliminate a star. I was a bit surprised and disappointed that the warmup in this DVD is the EXACT same as the one on her companion DVD. I know it's identical because the level 3 demo gal starts the warmup out of sync with Angie, and it was that way on both. Also, the music isn't the greatest; it reminds me a bit of circus music. However, the beat of the music matches the moves, and that's what's most important. With all the options given, I think it would take a long time to get tired of this workout. - posted by Janny on 12/26/2011

Your review will appear on this site within 2-3 days as long as it fits our guidelines. We do NOT post reviews that:

Use profanity, obscenities or are just plain mean-spirited.
Are single word critiques -- readers need to know why you liked or didn't like the workout.
Include non-Collage phone numbers, addresses, URLs, or pricing information.
Are written in all-caps -- it just seems like screaming.
Do not appear to be genuine, honest and helpful to others.
Are personal attacks on the instructor or on other video reviewers (i.e. posts that do not primarily discuss the content of this video).

Note: Please do the video a few times before you write a review so you're sure about your long-term opinion. And try to be specific about what you liked, or didn't. For example on a video, "Hard to follow" might mean you thought the video was poorly cued. Or it might just mean that it has complex choreography.

Also, it's helpful to give a little information about yourself (e.g. your fitness level, style preferences, age). It will help others better understand your comments.

Reading a Time Graph

Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.

Chapter menus

You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).

Wide screen

The program fully fills a wide-screen television screen. Note: These videos will display black bars at the top and bottom on a traditional 4 x 3 ratio TV screen.

Level

Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact

Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography

Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis

Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Floor aerobics & toning

Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
