uh oh is my step too big for low impact step ?

[Cassadine86]

I recently purchased the low impact step dvd and i have a circuit step but it's not the one Cathe uses on the dvd. I find myself still skipping around the step when they are on to the next move . Yikes. I'm hoping that I just need more practice It looks so fun. I would hate to return or sell it.I would really like to know so that i won't be wasting my time trying to get a move that I already have but can't because my step is too big.

my step is too big. i'm returning this..

WAIT WAIT!!! Before you return it, is there some way that you can modify?

Because you'll want that larger step once you move onto other Cathe workouts. Guaranteed.

I agree with Shelley! DON'T RETURN IT!!!! TRUST US!

No . I'm not getting rid of the circuit step but I just got rid of the low impact dvd since I can't use it with my step. I tried modifying the move but I can't because the move turns into those lunges and I can fall over :-(

I've done Low Impact Step on my regular size step. The only thing I found I had to modify was the three lunges of the side. Instead of doing all three off the side, I do the first two off the side, then 'hop' the last one so I exit off the BACK of the step rather than the side (otherwise, the step is too wide for the next move and there's a real possibility of knee torque).

And you can't return a DVD once it's opened anyway, so you might as well try it a couple of more times.
