Certified instructor description: A challenging workout that intermixes faster/slower step aerobics with short toning intervals. It's a "high intensity interval training" technique that maximizes both fat-burning and body-sculpting. Each block has 60 seconds of cardio followed by 30 seconds of toning (which also serves as the active recovery period). Within the cardio, you'll begin with 45 seconds of "regular" aerobics and end with a 15-second "burst." But it's all tough — the step aerobics often boost the challenge with dumbbells. The toning is fast-paced and usually works multiple body areas. Fortunately, Kristi Molinaro does help you adjust the overall intensity with weight variations and movement modifications. Requires 3 to 10 lb. dumbbells. ©2011.

The 30/60/90 Workout with Kristi Molinaro

This Workout is TOUGH!!!
I felt the burn from the warm-up all the way to the end. But that is because it was my first time doing this DVD, which is more advanced than my normal exercise routine. But I will work my way up to it. This is a keeper, for sure! - posted by Pedro on 2/23/2013
You can really work at your own pace
I like this video a lot. It's advanced but she lets you work at your own pace and there are a lot of variations to choose from. It's a great workout. - posted by Sally on 2/18/2013
Hold on...I need to catch my breath...
I am an advanced exerciser who's always on the look out for a new workout DVD that will push me further. Mostly, I tend to stick with Cathe videos, as they're among the toughest out there. I bought 30 60 90 on a whim, but holy moly! I can honestly say it left me completely breathless about a third of the way in! Kristi's cuing is good, and I love that she's not too bubbly or garrulous. She gives just enough pep talk to keep you going. I would most certainly NOT recommend this to a beginner. Even the modified exercises are killers. - posted by Liz on 2/7/2013
Try it with a Bosu
This workout is very effective. I was sweaty before the warm-up was over. I knocked a star off for 2 reasons - 1) Her mirror cuing is not consistent so that confused me once when I put my weight in the wrong hand for an exercise. 2) I don't like "2 weights in one hand". I'd prefer her saying "Heavy", "Medium", and "Light". I started some sets not sure what to use because I did not feel I had a good guide. She did guide some of the times though. It does not bother me that she walks around rather than doing the entire workout. I wouldn't be able to talk and do that workout. It also doesn't bother me that people do each set at their own pace. I was focusing on getting my weight and footing and pace correct. I used a Bosu in place of the High Step for many of the drills and it added more balance and fun and felt better on my knees. Try it if you own one too! - posted by Karen on 1/26/2013
Fantastic Advanced Workout rivaling Tabata and Hiit
I have never heard of Kristi Molinaro and am always on the lookout for new advanced hardcore, calorie-burning workouts. This one delivered. I have switched to male instructors except for new Tabata or strength/interval workouts by Cathe, Mindy, Jari, Amy Dixon and Amy Bento Ross, because I am very motivated to lose weight through exercise and have fun!! I love Paul Katami, Patrick Goudeau, Mike Donavanik and Toby Massenburg's strength and cardio interval workouts. Like them, Kristi pushes you to keep up a tough pace and uses weights within cardio interval drills. Like other reviewers, I agree that there are no breaks and that you must pause your DVD player to sip water and recover. I do that anyways so not an issue for me. I highly recommend this workout for days when you really want to burn calories and work hard. - posted by Megan on 12/27/2012
Does the job
I loved the intensity in this workout. I found that the time moved very fast. Lots of push-ups so the upper body is worked. I loved all the options that she gave and I found her to be motivating. This work out will get you in great shape. Very tough. - posted by Mary on 11/24/2012
Killer Workout
I simply couldn't believe that I was dripping with sweat and still in the warm up! The workout is tough, but doable. Time flies by. I highly recommend. - posted by Laura on 11/20/2012
GREAT workout
This was such a good workout. Kristi really pushes you and is very motivating. I loved it! - posted by Melissa on 11/19/2012
Boring and Depressing
The benefit of the program is primarily cardio and legs. For upper body, the speed is not conducive to lifting heavy weights, but with light weights there aren't enough reps to feel like you've done anything before she's on to the next thing. If you care about doing the same number of reps on each side, you're going to be counting to yourself the entire time, because the music does not provide a beat (on purpose), and the time allotted was giving me 25 reps on one side and 15 on the other. Then you'll want to keep going to match it up, but then you're behind on what she's doing next...ugh. Not fun. Plus the "music" feels like the same 4 notes over and over for an hour--deadly. - posted by Sarah on 11/5/2012

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.
sample time graph
Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
sample time graph
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Step aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The step aerobics segments involve stepping up and down on a platform. The moves range from simple stepping to more choreographed exercises. These segments require a step bench platform. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
