Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
The secret to breaking through weight-loss plateaus is challenging your body to work out at a higher intensity than it's used to, to "overload" in fitness parlance. Kathy Smith's Fat Burning Breakthrough presents two 18-minute step workout "waves" that progress through ever-harder intensities, building to a peak, then gradually tapering down. The two sessions can be done singly or combined into a 46-minute workout. Smith's all-female demonstrators show modifications for higher and lower intensity throughout, and one does the whole workout without a step for a much easier version.

The choreography is more complex and the overall intensity is higher than most of Smith's videos, making this video most appropriate for intermediate exercisers. A brief weight workout follows each cardio session, and at the end is an abdominal and back routine, and a stretch.

Smith, as always, is safe and motivating, with excellent technique. Her fans appreciate that her videos contain no screaming, no frenzy, no endless counting, no distracting camera work. Although Smith is motivating, the music here is merely innocuous, barely keeping the beat. The setting is a lovely outdoor park scene. --Joan Price

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Been using this video for over three years and plan to continue.
I recall when initally started doing step vidoes there was Denise Austin and Kathy Smith. I enjoy Kathy Smith so much more. I initally started with her 'Step Workout' 10 years ago, then progressed to the 'Power Step Workout' (both great workouts). However these videos were VHS and I needed a DVD one, so I purchsed this one. I love this DVD! I feel so good after I do it. Living in a four season climate, and typically excercising in the morning, I love the convenience of rolling out of bed and putting ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great quick workout
I do the 18 minute workouts when I short on time and do a short yoga tape (sara ivanhoe). This workout will have you working hard! I sweat with both or just one of the workouts. The step for me were not too dancy but
then again, I'm used to cathe friedrich and Those are so tough I only do
them when I'm up for it. The weight section in good as is the abs. the only thing is you have to do your own cooldown if you do the just the one
workout on it's own like I do. Other then that Kathy ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - It's Gotta Work...
The step routines are killer and, therefore, have to be beneficial for burning calories and building leg muscles. I always like it when a DVD breaks the exercise routines into several segments so that, depending on the time you have at the moment, you have multiple options regarding your workout (from as little as 4 minutes with the abs section, and/or two separate 18 minutes with the step aerobics/brief target-training on the arms, and/or warm up & cool down segments as well). And you don't have ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - my favorite aerobic instructor and dvd
this dvd is broken down into warmup, aerobic + weights, aerobic + weights, floor work, cooldown. this is great because you can do both sets of aerobic + weight or just one and skip to the floorwork and cooldown, depending on how much time you have and your fitness level. her cues are very easy to follow and directions are clear. she is down to earth and encouraging without being overly enthusiastic, but also does a great job at keeping up the energy level. i particularly like this one because it lacks ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Really Great Workout!
This is the first time that I really felt motivated enough to write a review. I love this DVD. I workout often, and I have problems finding workouts that challenge me enough. I also have three children, so time is limited. This DVD solves both problems for me. A great challenging workout and I can choose the time. If I don't have much time, I only do the first wave. It is quite the workout by itself. If I have more time, I go further into wave 2. Honestly, I have yet to make it through wave 2. I've ... Read More
