Certified instructor description: Six complete cardio intervals that each use totally different moves. They all start slowly, build in intensity and end with a “burst” (so you can really push yourself because you know a “resting” segment will come up next). The movement diversity combined with the tempo variations are sure to keep you motivated and challenged. Nothing fancy, these athletic-style moves are easy to follow and familiar — from pony steps and lunges to kickboxing and “football feet.” Michelle Dozois is a pro — her cue-ahead instruction is clear; her energy is invigorating. DVD also has a pre-mixed 31-minute workout version. ©2007. DVD has: 1 premix (31-min. alternate workout), Chapter menus.

Michelle Dozois' Rockin' Body Cardio Jam

Disappointed...Confusing
After reading the reviews below, I was excited about this DVD, but was disappointed. The background is dark and fuzzy which makes it hard to see the movements of the exercisers. The transition from one exercise to another is confusing. Will not recommend this one. - posted by Janine on 11/16/2011
LOVE IT!!!! A TRUE GEM!
I have had this workout for a few years and I always come back to this one. I would rate it more int/adv than intermediate. It is tough! I like that it is a little dancey without being too dancey and athletic with plyos as well. I agree with another reviewer that alot of the dance aerobics just do not get your heart rate up enough. They are fun but not great workouts for me. More for my active rest days. I like that Michelle repeats the sections on both sides of the body so it is all done evenly. On days when you do not want to do all plyos, you can modify. The modifier is clearly visible. The other thing I like is that while you need space to do this workout, you do not need a TON of space. I hope Michelle will make other workouts like this one. I have her Peak 10 Interval Burn and that one is great as well. Get this one. It is tougher than advertised and a great workout. You will burn a ton of calories and sweat tons! - posted by J on 11/5/2011
Makes you sweat.
This was the first DVD that i purchased of Michelle Dozois, i was not disappointed michelle keeps you motivated all the way through the workouts and you do sweat, and by the end of the DVD you know that you have done a really good workout. - posted by Karen on 7/11/2011
Great cardio but moves too fast for proper form.
I don't consider myself a hard core exerciser but I have been doing videos for years. While this is a good dvd to break out in a sweat to, I feel she moves too fast through some of the combo's that you totally lose form. A slightly slowed down version on some of the more involved combos would be better. Michelle is a likeable instructor though. - posted by Angel on 5/18/2011
Good workout but not an exciting one
First of all, yes the set is a bit of an eyesore but you'll stop noticing that after you get going. This is a good cardio workout but there's nothing particularly innovative-all very basic kickboxing and floor aerobics moves. It's good for days when you are choreography adverse. There is a 50 minutes and express 30 minute version. My biggest complaint is the designated low impact exerciser is sometimes just doing "less high" impact-this is really noticeable in the last section. Michelle is likable, positive and a good cuer. The DVD also contains a personal message from Michelle about her struggles with her son's autism but it is separate from the workout (you don't have to watch or ff through it every time to get going.) - posted by Vanessa on 4/28/2011
Enjoyable Workout
This is my first workout with Michelle Dozois. I thought it was a great workout. It was constant cardio. Her cueing was excellent and she kept me motivated. As I have been ordering videos for years, I was so happy to find a new trainer that I enjoyed so much - posted by Lorraine on 3/18/2011
Not A Fan Of Floor Aerobics
It's going to serve its purpose to use for lite cardio when I do PT. Some of the moves were hard to coordinate, but pretty fun workout. - posted by JoAnn on 3/3/2011
AWESOME!
Michelle's "Rockin' Body Cardio Jam" is so much fun. For years I have been a FIRM Believer, but decided that sometimes I need/want just plain aerobics. Michelle delivers with this video. The moves are simple enough, Michelle's cuing is timely, the intensity is high from the beginning, the music is great, and you will sweat from head to toe. It is amazing to find out that eventhough I have trained with weights for years, my endurance level was not what I thought it was. So this workout is exactly what I need, and I will definitely purchase more of Michelle's aerobics-only workouts. - posted by Beverly on 3/3/2011
Like it a lot!
I was really wanting an all-cardio workout the past few months; the shorter days have meant it's too dark for me to jog after work. Although I love my interval videos, it's nice to just do straight cardio sometimes. And this is great. Perfect length, time doesn't drag. Always get a good workout if I put some energy behind the moves. And although I like videos with all the popular burpees and mountain climbers, it's nice to sometimes just upright while I exercise. Fun and hard enough to count as a solid workout if you put everything into it...might be a bit too easy if you do the moves small of half-heartedly, like any workout I guess. - posted by Soledad on 2/24/2011
A Good Workout!
I'm new to aerobic/dance type videos, and I liked it. This is my first Michelle video. I'm a little slow with the choreography--but it's a good, hard workout. And, I think it's just right as far as the workout minutes go. - posted by Priscilla on 2/24/2011

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.

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
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.

Floor aerobics
X
Definition: Fast-paced standing movements like marching, walking, dancing and jumping. Requires no equipment.
