Certified instructor description: Two athletic-style workouts — one maximizes the fat-burning with a step, the other with high-impact plyometrics. Both programs feature an interesting series of non-dancy moves (easy to follow, but tough!). The step workout has five different add-on combos. They range from classic repeaters to innovative “bench hops.” The plyometric program boosts your heart rate with ten powerful jumping drills. They range from pure-strength straight-up jumps to equally challenging lateral hops (with lots of variations). Kelly’s high energy and straight-forward cuing is motivating and clear. DVD includes premix options that mix the step and plyometics into one workout. ©2009. DVD has: 2 premixes (41 & 49 min. alternate workouts), Chapter menus.

Kelly Coffey's 30 Minutes to Fitness: Cardio Blast

Athletic Step, Straight, No Chaser
Kelly woke me up this morning! When she asks in the begining of the workout "are you ready for some athletic step"? She's not kidding. Love, love, love this cardio step! This is my first Kelly Coffey-Meyer class and it will not be my last. She is encouraging and pleasant, and quick! I'm an intermediate/advanced stepper and she made me give up a lot this morning. I sweated buckets and felt proud of myself for accomplishing so much in 35 minutes! I'm doing the plyo-cardio next time. Way to go Kelly! This class is officially added to my weekly rotation. - posted by Janice on 5/2/2012

I love this video! I checked it out at the library, and decided to purchase it the next day. - posted by Shana on 4/27/2012
Great short cardio workout!
I have been looking for a short cardio workout (20-30 min long)for interm/advanced exerciser and I finally found a terrific one! The steps are not that hard to follow (if you fairly coordinated) and you definitely break out a sweat! Thanks Kelly! - posted by Sofi on 3/2/2012

I am glad there is a plyometric portion of this workout because trying to pick up the step aerobics choreography is a slow process for me and I do not work up a sweat. But, I work up a sweat doing the plyometrics. - posted by Kim Stults on 10/3/2011
Cardio Blast is a BLAST
Kelly has done a fabulous job with these two very different but extremely fun and effective workouts. With so many Step workouts out there that are difficult and frustrating to learn, Kelly keeps it simple with fun athletic, non dancey choreography. Step workouts are a little hard on my knees so I have mastered the Step workout without the Step and still get in a fabulous workout. Once again, the Master Modifier Lauren is there to show you modifications. I am extremely challenged with choreography and stay clear away from complicated routines but even I was able to learn the Step class after a few tries. VERY fun workout! The Plyometrics routine was my first ever attempt at this style of workout and, to be honest, I avoided doing it for a very long time but,again, Lauren is there showing modifications so I gave it a try. I LOVED IT!! Simple high intensity moves, awesome music and even a little break in between moves. I burned an insane amount of calories doing this workout and felt SO proud of myself when I finished it. Don't shy away from this one if you can't do high impact, this one can be done by any fitness level. I would rate the Step workout as Intermediate and the Pylometrics workout Advanced if you follow Kelly's lead. As always, Kelly's cuing is perfect but not overdone, she's by far my favorite instructor. Her 30 Minutes to Fitness series of workouts just keep getting better and better! LOVE IT, KELLY:) - posted by Judy on 7/27/2011
Fun and effective
I've had this dvd for about a year, but never used it. I just found it and did the plyo workout...its really good. I've never seen Kelly but I REALLY like her energy, very "real," and encouraging. It was tough enough that I feel like I really accomplished something, but not so tough I couldn't do it. Great for a short cardio blast, like the title says. Definitely will continue to use this one! - posted by Theresa on 6/19/2011
So much fun and the music is not dull for a change!
I have done this dvd a few times now and I love it so much. It is challenging but very do-able. I feel like I accomplish something after finishing and even though I work hard, I don't get drained. The music is recognizable and fun - not the boring synth beat in so many other dvd's. K.C.M. is personable and down to earth - I love her! This workout flies by. I highly recommend it. It is one of my favorites of all time. - posted by Beth on 5/30/2011
Great workouts...and fun!
Fantastic workouts...both of them! The 30 minute plyometric is my FAVORITE! I've got a crazy schedule lately so have gotten several DVDs from you all that have some pretty intense 30 minute workouts. I'm hooked! Love Kelly's style, cueing and "you can do this...let's have fun" attitude. Keeps me coming back and I'm totally happy with results I'm getting. - posted by e on 5/5/2011
Its okay
The step workout is a little to dancy for me-the plyo was okay but not quite as tough as Cathe's HIIT! - posted by Chrissy on 4/4/2011
She's great!
Although this workout was not as difficult as Kelly's usual workout it was still fun. I liked the fact that I can use premixes to decide what I want to do on a specific day and I love the motivation and energy from this instructor. - posted by Melany on 3/18/2011

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.

Premixes
X
These are alternate workouts created by the manufacturer. They use the same content as the main program (i.e. the very same video footage). But the sections are re-edited into pre-made alternative workouts that you select from a menu. These are often condensed versions of the main workout.
Chapter menus
X
You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).
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
