Certified instructor description: Two ultra-challenging, uniquely-structured workouts plus a short abs program. You're absolutely guaranteed to burn fat and reshape your body ... if you can keep up! Both primary workouts are formatted in 30-second segments (with a motivating countdown timer). You'll do a move for 30 seconds, then “max it out” for 30. Then you'll do a different move and max it out. Finally, you'll combine the first two, followed by the second two (i.e. 30 seconds of max+max — it's tough!). The aero/tone program uses a step; it includes amped-up versions of cardio classics — moves like squat thrusts with air jacks (“get that airtime”). The toning section is equally intensified; it features innovative exercises like circular curls and “iron crosses.” Requires two sets of dumbbells (e.g. 3 and 10 lb.). ©2011. DVD has: Wide screen.

Max 30 with Toby Massenburg
Motivation to the Max
Terrific workout. Toby does a great job cueing and really motivates me to push hard. Fun and unique blend of moves with a few of my favorites mixed in. I love curtsy squats but I hate burpees, which he maxes! Overall great calorie burner for limited time and space. A keeper! - posted by Julie on 3/23/2012

Great Workout
I really like this video -- like another reviewer said, Toby has a great smile and great personality. For some reason, when I'm doing this, it seems hard, but not impossible, but the next day I am completely sore. (And I'm a pretty advanced exerciser). I always do it right before a scheduled rest day, because there is no way I could work out after that. My only complaint is that you need a step for one of the segments, and I don't have one. But still, the video is totally worth it, very low dread factor -- impressive considering how hard it is. - posted by DD on 3/15/2012

Great Work Toby..
Great cueing, fun, new moves, intense and short!!! What else can you ask for!! Loved it! Prepare to sweat! - posted by Aimee on 3/2/2012

right mindset
he will work you--next day feel; but not enough intensity. Its okay, I was expecting more - posted by kerine on 2/16/2012

Great job!
I was so excited when I saw that Toby had a video and I was not disappointed. Don't be fooled by level one - this workout gets you sweating! I hope Toby makes more videos! - posted by EAFN on 2/8/2012

Love it!
Great workout. Toby uses exercises that I've never seen before and I've been using videos for 20 years. He keeps it interesting and challenging. Great instructor. - posted by Jen on 1/26/2012

Awesome Workout!
Great workout! Loved it, loved it, loved it! I first saw Toby on Patrick Goudeux's Hot Lean Bodies DVD. When I first noticed that he released his own DVD, Max 30, I couldn't wait to try it. He really gets my heart rate pumping. Like Paul Katami's A.S.A.P Hollywood 4X4 DVD, Toby's workout consists of blocks with one-minute intervals. These intervals make my heart shoot through the roof. They're tough, but definitely a workout you will feel good about when you're done. Toby has a nice personality and I enjoy his cute comments. Not only does he make the workouts fun, but he gets you in shape in the process. You will not regret this purchase. Fun, fun, fun! - posted by Monica on 1/19/2012

Glad I got this one!
This workout IS advanced level. If your heart rate isn't up there you aren't pushing yourself hard enough. That is the way this workout is set up. There are breaks because it is a type of HiiT workout and those typically have breaks. Work harder if it isn't doing it for you! - posted by Melissa on 1/18/2012

Good/Not Great.....Intermediate/Not Advanced
I exercise 6 days/week alternating weight training days with cardio days. I like advanced workouts, and some of my current favorite instructors are Paul Katami(all of his kettlebell workouts, especially Burn & Build), Michelle Dozois (all of her Peak 10 workouts) and Shaun T (Insanity). There are a lot of pros about this workout. It has some original moves and kept me interested. The time seemed to pass quickly. Toby has a great smile and a nice tempurment. He is encouraging and cues very well. However, there were also a few cons to this workout for me. I wear a heart rate monitor and was disappointed to see that I didn't burn as many calories as I do with most of my other interval workouts. While the weight training portion of the workout was fun it was not super intense. Similarly, the cardio section does not have enough challenging drills. My heart rate did not stay in my training zone for very long at all during the 30 min cardio segment. I did the entire 70 minute workout back to back and still had a lot of energy left to do more cardio on my elliptical, which is unusual after most of my other advanced workouts. Additionally, Toby's workout would be better if it had some really banging music! Overall, I think it is a great first effort. If Toby continues to make workout DVDs I have a feeling that he will get better with each effort. - posted by Melinda on 1/11/2012

More intermediate/high intermediate
I'm just not feeling the love that others are. Not sure if I really consider this advanced. I did this in the morning and I am usually not as ambitious with advanced cardio/weight vids in the A.M. as I am at 5pm. So with that being said I did this whole workout in the morning for the second time. The cardio sculpt just isn't complete for me. It's a little of each muscle group, but not enough to do much. I thought it was somewhat fun, but the adding hops and working upper and lower altogether was way to confusing and I find myself rewinding and switching weights. I never got much of a muscle challenge. The first time I did this section, I did it with another toning dvd to get a better workout. I will continue to do that. The cardio portion was good. I like that he builds up the intensity and keeps it fun, but again, I didn't find myself really cardio challenged at all. I will say I did not do the jump turns in the air over the step. That just seemed to dangerous for this 47 year old body. Then some of the cardio was kinda putsy, given that he also gives you a break. But, it doesn't feel long or repetitive. The core work was ok, but I think he could have added more. I like his personality and the fact that he didn't yell at you to keep moving. I will use each section but with other workouts. I think intermediate exercisers will like this one. - posted by Cam on 1/7/2012

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.

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.

Step aerobics & toning

Definition: Includes two workout activities. The step aerobics segments involve stepping up and down on a platform. The moves range from simple stepping to more choreographed exercises. These segments require a step bench platform. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against 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.
