Karen Voight's Ultimate Step Circuit |
  It is ok |
| I used to do this workout back in the day when I was just beginning to get back into shape. It became too easy very quickly. I think the only problem I had with it is that it is to short. It does not keep the heart rate elevated long enough, especially with such short strength segments. If the cardio and strength were longer this may be one I would use in my current rotation- but I think I'll stick to Cathe and Sharon Twombly and Kelly Coffey when it comes to circuit workouts- they have much tougher workouts. - posted by Mandee on 11/5/2008 |

| Good workout |
| I am not really a fan of Karen Voights, but I did like this workout. If someone else would have done it, I would have been very pleased with it. It gets my hr up and has toning as well, so to me, well worth the hour of work. - posted by Marsha on 10/3/2008 |

| refreshing workout |
| I did a tough cathe workout yesterday So I pulled this out. I sweated and still felt like i worked out. Face it you cannot do a hardcore workout everyday even cathe made a couple of low impact workouts.So if you still want cardio with some weights and it is a light workout day this fits the bill. - posted by delores on 2/29/2008 |

| Great to Re-visit! |
| I own the DVD that is the combo with BLT, and I hadn't done the workout in a while. It was my very first step video purchase in 2003, and I loved it back then and found it very challenging. Fast forward to 2007- still challenging! I worked up an amazing sweat and had fun. I always love Karen and wanted to re-recommend this great video to everyone! - posted by Alison on 11/21/2007 |

| Workout is too easy |
| It really is a great workout but I always keep wishing that it was longer and a little harder. - posted by Margo on 7/12/2007 |

| I really like it |
| It kept my heartrate up and the steps were challenging but very doable and I felt like I got a good workout with out being killed. I love my Cathe's but this def. has a place in my rotation as well. - posted by on 5/15/2007 |

| Disappointed |
| I'm really surprised by the DVDs that Karen is releasing. She changed the way we looked at step with Energy Sprint, which, at the time, was one of the most challenging workouts on the market. But, it's been downhill since. While Ultimate Step was okay, it's just too short and easy. I think she may be targeting a different audience. But, it just means that I'm not going to be purchasing anymore of her DVDs. This one just didn't do it for me. - posted by Anonymous on 5/6/2007 |

| Great Workout! |
| I pulled this one out this morning- just did the 30 min step cardio segment. It is great! It goes by so fast because it is in 3 different segments of coreography. Not too hard or complex at all. I got a great workout. The full circut is great too, but I just did weights with Jari Love ripped to the core yesterday! I am glad I pulled this one out agin! If you like Cathe's basic step and body fusion- this is very comparable to it. - posted by Tracy on 3/31/2007 |

| Love it - Karen is great |
| I love this one. Karen is great. Her moves aren't too dancey or complex, and yet she manages to be elegant. My dvd of this has options for mixing and matching workouts which is a handy feature for days when you don't want to do the whole thing. All in all a great workout. - posted by Sam from New Zealand on 3/15/2007 |

| SO-SO |
| While I really liked the stepping routines, even though as others have said Karen's cuing is a little off, I thought the weight sequences were bo-ring. The abs sequence is good but not long enough (I'm used to Cathe). So I just pop the dvd in when I am crunched for time and I do only the cardio option from the menu. - posted by Christie on 1/27/2007 |
