1) This DVD is not sold with Collage. Very limited distribution system set up.
2) The workout uses a weighted walking vest to add intensity, without a vest, not worth the time unless you're coming off an illness and need to get back into it slowly. With the Atlus vest, it connects on top and the one Gin uses connects below waistline making it easier to do a lot of the workout b/c mine creeped up doing planks.
3)The advertised 30 minute workout includes warmup and 8 intervals with short cooldown. The stretch and the core are done seperately adding 7 minutes if you do both.
4) All plank work is done with the bench. Gin uses a towel but if you use Cathe's step cover will work better, from experience. She offers options on everything.
5)Cardio, some of the transitions are odd like jumping rope to skiing with moguls. Jumping rope was the easiest part of the interval cardio and the skiing was the toughest. Crab walks are not the same as Cathe's crab move planks. You are standing up and doing it aerobically. Jumping jacks most difficult interval especially being weighted with the vest.
6)No crew or class. It is just Gin and you similiar to Simply Step
Honestly, no one beats Cathe as far as quality of workouts in totality so I workout with Gin Miller to change things up once in awhile. Tomorrow will be Simply Interval then Bella Strength. 2012 will be High Step Training then the Hardcore series.
