I love Amy Bento's KBX and HLX. There are blasts but they are not like Imax blasts although, I'm in the learning stages of these and they are still killer cardio! There are premixes where you can do the combo's without the blasts if you like. Fun, fun, fun, and great music. These are tough workouts and they are sweat fests for sure!!! I want to try Amy Bento's Advanced Step Challenge but will wait until Advanced Step Challenge 2, unless I'm fortunate enough to acquire in a trade. I also LOVE Step-Boxing (Kelly Coffey-Meyer), but be warned that there is maybe 37 minutes of cardio total including WU & CD bofore she changes to compound movements and cardio weights for the remainder of the workout. Kelly starts right in with the WU so your heart rate gets elevated quickly. It is fast, fast, fast and fun, fun, fun!!! If you own a bosu the CIA Double Cardio DVD has an awesome bosu cardio workout called Bosu Blast. I love it! It has another workout on there featuring step/floor cardio that alternates between intense core work and total body, functional, toning moves. It is a sweatfest also and is called All Body Cardio. Better Burn Better Buns is a great lower body (no weights) cardio alternative that kind of "gets" ya later. Once you learn to execute the moves properly it is defintely a nice change of pace.
