CIA 2101: Extreme Intervals |
  Love this Workout |
| I have to say this is one of my favorite workouts. When I really want a killer workout with some challenging moves that will cause my heart rate to skyrocket, I pull this video out. I also use some of the choreography in my aerobic classes and my girls always feel that it pushes them to their maximum heart rate in a good way. I recommend this video for the advanced workout fanatic that wants to be challenged. - posted by Lindsay on 8/20/2008 |

| bad instruction |
| i have several of mindys tapes collecting dust in my exercise room. yes, she can get your heartrate up, but her cueing is horrendous. she never seems to get any better, despite having put out alot of videos. i never reach for her workouts, even when i am ready for a change from my usual rotations. i would rather go for a run. there is more satisfaction in that, than in mindys stuff. she should stop trying to be a comedian, and take teaching lessons instead. - posted by darlene on 7/14/2008 |

| A Favorite Workout |
| When I want to blast some calories I reach for this video. Fantastic interval workout will get your heart rate up. Interesting yet easy to follow moves. Mindy always makes the workout fun even though you are working hard. - posted by Jane on 9/27/2007 |

| EXTREME |
| I thought this was the best workout- even better than my entire Cathe Collection. I am thinking about getting a spin cycle and with all the money I spent on Cathe, I could have had one by now... Tossin' em!!! MINDY YOU ROCK!!! - posted by XTREEM on 3/10/2007 |

| Awesome workout, motivating instructor & great music |
| I wanted a new video to add some pizazz to my rotation and this is it! Mindy is peppy and witty, and the moves in this advanced tape are challenging and interesting. The step portion is great and incorporates moves that mix things up from your basic step routine. I really like how the high/low portion is interesting...this is probably the most interesting high/low segment I've ever done (the ones I've done weren't this challenging) so it's almost a shame it's only 20 minutes long. And then Pump Party, which is a pretty good overall toning segment. This is my first tape with Mindy Mylrea - I like how she is funny and motivating, I also like how I can do the step, high/low or toning portions individually in the mornings before work, when I don't have the time to do the whole tape. This is such a great workout video and a worthwhile purchase! - posted by Sharon D.B. on 1/29/2005 |

| Great music, lots of fun! |
| This is my first Mindy video and I had so much fun doing it I wanted to rewind and start again (but was too fatigued!) The music and her energy made me want to keep going. Also I was able to catch onto the step moves rather quickly after two or three tries, and this video got my heartrate up much more than The Firm videos I have been doing. However I would not say I ever reached the level "9" intensity that Mindy aims for during the intervals-- so I would say although this video is advanced, it is not killer advanced. Try it! One note however, it's very high impact, so if you have knee problems or are a klutz (like me) be extra careful with the moves, especially the really fast ones. - posted by roadrunner on 2/2/2004 |

| Good Workout |
| This is one intense video. I consider myself to be in good shape. The step portion had me sweating like a bull. The floor cardio portion was okay. The strength portion is very good. But a word to the wise. Since some of the moves are very fast, modify them and you will still get a good workout. - posted by KME on 7/20/2003 |

| A Nice Change! |
| I'd consider myself an advanced exerciser who usually does Cathe and The FIRM. I'm starting to branch out a bit with other advanced tapes and I've heard good things about Mindy.This tape was a nice change for me. It's advanced, but not "killer" advanced. The choreography can be a little tricky at times, but nothing that you can't easily pick up after time.I really like that you can split the workout up into 3 parts. I love to combine the "parts" with other tapes I have.At first, I didn't think I'd be challenged by the Pump Party (toning section), but I was!. It won't build any muscles if you're used to Cathe, but it's great for endurance with a bit of cardio and core work mixed in to it. - posted by Diana on 6/11/2003 |
