Amy Bento's All Cardio Hi-Low Knockout |
 My absolutely favorite instructor! |
| I LOVE Amy! I am constantly looking for new videos from her. I agree with another instructor that every video of hers I get quickly becomes my new favorite. This video is primarily cardio, and I have not tried the abs toning. The cardio section gets the heart rate up and keeps it up there. The moves are advanced and may take you some time to get them down. I tried to preview the DVD but actually found it easier to just get in there and do it! It is fast-paced, fun, has great music and the intervals are intense (esp. #2!). Hang in there, though, it's worth it! Amy is such a great instructor and her cueing is excellent. I use this and her other workouts several times a week. I can't wait for the two others of hers I just bought! - posted by Kate on 3/31/2009 |

| I love this workout! But Ouch! |
| Every Amy DVD I buy I think 'this is my new favourite' and this DVD was no exception. I really love this DVD. But it is hard, and because of the intervals, probably harder than Amy's other hi/lo dvds. The choreography is interesting, but by no means hard to pick up. Combos 1 and 2, and intervals 1 and 2 are far harder (physically) than 3 and 4, and when I've mastered the first half I feel quite relieved. I am always dripping when i finish and Amy workout, but this one more than any other. I think combo 2 is the weakest choreographically, as the counting is slightly unusual. But it is still brilliant. I love Amy, and since buying this DVD I have bought 4 others. I have so many Amy dvds that she has her own shelf! She is by far the best. - posted by Zoe on 2/18/2009 |

| A heartpumping groove fest. |
| I love this. I'll admit I watched it a few times before I attempted the routine, but it has grown on me. I especially love combos 3 and 4. I talk myself through combos 1 and 2 because I know I have the last two to look forward to :-). I've always loved good music and this video has plenty of it. The moves are challenging (and I miss a few steps here and there), but it is worth the effort. The ab section is also unique and great. My Amy Bento collection has grown significantly since I discovered her last year; I hope she keeps creating these workouts. - posted by Anita on 1/23/2009 |

| Calorie Killer |
| High Energy workout. The time flies. It's long and yeah, it may take a few runs through to master the moves, but they are fun and you won't get bored. I wore a heart rate monitor and fried major calories! Great ab section. - posted by L. on 12/4/2008 |

 I will grow to love this one! |
| I know I will grow to love this workout but the moves are a bit hard to get down the first few times. I love how it keeps your heart rate up and you are continually moving- I also love the fact that there are some great kickboxing moves in it-- front kicks, crescents and side kicks during one knockout. This is definitely more fun than her hi/lo extreme in my opinion. I am looking forward to doing it again as I am hoping to get all the moves down next time so I won't have to be frustrated. It is a milestone we must get over to really enjoy workouts like this!! - posted by Mandee on 10/27/2008 |

| TOO COMPLICATED |
| Loved the music. I have done this workout several times and consider myself pretty coordinated. The choreography is too complicated. I don't think it's necessary for the choreography to be so complicated that you become frustrated learning it. A workout is supposed to be enjoyable. - posted by BETH on 9/28/2008 |

| Wow, Ow... and wonderful! |
| I am an advanced exerciser, and this was a challenge for me. I don't pretend to be at the highest end of the advanced scale, but I feel I am pretty advanced. None of the other Amy's, however, have been as much as a challenge as this one, though HI/lo xtreme came close. This is an amazing workout! I was reluctant in buying this, as I have not yet tried Amy for Kickboxing. I have ordered all her other dvds so quickly after doing this one, it's going to take me weeks to get through them! THe Choreography in this workout is extremely fun. I loved Amy's Hi/lo dome workout, due to the varied choreography, but this is even better! My heart rate was through the roof! The intervals are longer than on some of her other dvds, and this makes you really feel every move. I find Hi/lo Dome as much fun as this one, despite it being slightly (I mean ever so slightly) easier. Her moves are so innovative that you never lose interest. Although combos 3 and 4 are slightly easier, they are not easy! Amy has hit a winner with this workout. Every muscle appears to be worked, and it is a real cardio challenge. I particularly like, in the knockouts, how she utilises different muscles. I found knock out two harder than the rest, and I would warn that it is more difficult on carpet. But I enjoy having something to work up to. The Ab workout is fabulous. So often are the ab sections on Dvds the same boring moves that they aren't worth doing. Amy's ab workout is so innovative that it leaves you wanting more. I think this workout is a winner. If I could give it more than five stars I would. - posted by Zoe on 9/28/2008 |

| I love Amy Bento |
| I love Amy Bento. Here's another workout of hers with fantastic music, exciting moves, advanced level. It's just an all-around great workout for someone who wants an advanced cardio challenge. Regarding the choreography, give yourself a few times through to get it all down. But I got enough of it on my first try that I could enjoy the workout completely! - posted by Marianne on 9/27/2008 |

| Fabulous Workout and Awesome Music |
| I really loved this workout and the music (finally...something more than weird techno-beat aerobics music). It was definitely a cardio-challenge, but the music is so motivating and fun that you want to keep going. I am somewhat choreography-challenged, so I took each choreography segment (there are 4) and learned one new one at the end of my standard workout each day until I finally had the entire workout down. Now, the choreography is a piece of cake and lots of fun. I highly recommend this DVD. - posted by Rebecca on 9/14/2008 |

| One of my favorite workouts! |
| This is one of my favorite cardio workouts, and I have so much fun doing it! Granted, it took me a few times to get the choreography down, but, once you learn it, it's great to not have it repeated too much. The music on this is great, and Amy's fun personality shines through. Highly recommended! - posted by Leanne on 9/2/2008 |
