Q about Mindy Mylrea videos

[garance]

I have just ordered her Interval Express, Strength Express, and Awesome Intervals. Can anyone tell me more about these? I have been doing the Intensity series--the blast for 10 weeks, have lost 13 pounds, and love it, but I am afraid I will get bored if I just keep doing only the Blast. Soo--if anyone can tell me about these videos--are they as rigorous as they sound? Will they provide me with some needed variation to the Intensity series? Thanks!!

All I can offer is my personal opinion... now first consider I just got 4 of her videos last week and have only done 2 of them To answer your question.. will they provide variatioN????? I vote yes!!! I think they are so fun! Plus they kick my butt! She is crazy though. She moves so quickly. Her cardio is very powerful but very fast. I like a challenge so it is good... but it will definitely take me quite a few times on these to master.

They are so tough I found myself modifying a couple times.. and I hardly ever modify with Cathe. I bought Awesome Intervals, Interval Express, Extreme Intervals/Pump Party and Boot Camp. So far I have done Awesome Intervals and Extreme Intervals. The music is great, lots of great ol' 80's / 90's dancin music. It reminds me more of a killer class you do at the club! She uses the medicine ball even during the step portion. She does terminator thrust like climber things right in the middle of the workout. She also turns the step long wise on both of them I did. I also love her hi/lo sections at the end. I love them and am so glad I found them. I really needed some variation. I too had great results early on with the Intensity series but definitely started to hit a plateau!

Good luck!

Thanks! I think that's what I want to hear (oh no!). I was worried about one of the videos reviewed at Collage, since the reviewer said she fractured her ankle doing it. So I stayed away from that one.
