Prevention: Drop It in 30! |
 Alright |
| Well I thought the first workout -fat-blasting- was a little bland. It didn't have very many moves that kept me interested. But in -metabolism-boosting- I thought that the workout was fun and enticing. I felt like I burned some mega calories and had a lot of fun. I give this five stars because of Chris Freytag. She is the best workout motivator I have ever seen. She is just the best! - posted by Emily on 2/22/2009 |

| Sweat Blaster! |
| I love the two 20 minute workouts! It's athletic cardio for intermediate exercisers. I usually do both workouts and they do get my heartrate up. It's very easy to make the workouts harder by exaggerating the moves and adding hi-impact to steps. For example, instead of just marching in place as what Chris does in between sets, try jogging in place. If she steps side-to-side, try side-hops. The nice thing about home workout DVDs is that you can always adjust the intensity to suit your needs. I am actually high intermediate/low advanced exerciser and the workouts still make me sweat. Fun workouts! - posted by Caroline on 2/16/2009 |

 For Beginner Only!!!! |
| This workout is a complete bore and waste of precious exercise time. My heart rate was not elevated at all and I did not sweat. There is too much stopping and marching. The moves were not intense and frankly rather simplistic.. The metabolism workout was better than the fat burning one, but both were rather neither challenging nor fun. None but a very beginner would feel challenged by this workout. - posted by Denise on 1/9/2009 |

| Excellent, quick workout! |
| I just completed this entire workout and I enjoyed it a lot!The first segment is a little dancy with some dance routines and it's more low impact than segment 2. Segment two is more of an athletic workout with basketball drills and soccer drills and ending with some jump rope movements...THIS is my favorite segment and you will sweat and feel the burn! This video flies by so quick and you don't even know how time flew. I have most of Chris's dvds and if you go to the prevention website she has a new kickboxing dvd that you can only find there, as of yet. This dvd is great for everyone and there is a person who modifies each version. TRY IT!! You WILL enjoy this dvd!! - posted by Vivian on 10/22/2008 |

| Good workout |
| I ended up liking this one more than I thought I would. In some of Chris's earlier videos, I didn't care for her that much (her cueing wasn't so good before and she'd say "Ah-some" about 25 times). But with this one, her cueing is much better and she's become a better instructor all around. I liked that the moves are simple and fairly athletic. It's a solid fat burner that gets your heartrate up and keeps it there. I'd rate the first section as Low Intermediate and probably too easy for someone who is very High Intermediate. The second section is more High Intermediate. - posted by Marianne on 3/29/2008 |

| Fantastic! |
| This is an awesome workout! I love the mix between high and low impact moves. There is great variation in the choreography to keep it interesting and it really keeps your heartrate up if you put full effort into it. This is a great, pure-fat-burning workout. It gets the job done quick. - posted by Shelley on 3/15/2008 |

| Like Chris Freytag |
| I like Prevention dvd's and Chris Freytag. But wasn't big on this workout. Just didn't like the routine of it. It was a good workout, just didn't like it for some reason. - posted by Marsha on 2/11/2008 |

| Really great workout |
| I really like this DVD. Chris Freytag is great- she's encouraging without being cheesy. The first segment is more dancy which I like, I wasn't too crazy about the second segment which is athletic drills. Overall a great dvd. One complaint is I wish it was programmable. - posted by anonymous on 1/14/2008 |

| Best Workout! |
| Once again Chris Freytag is energetic and up beat, she is a great instructor. She has a few kids and looks fantastic which shows you what hard work will do. This is my favorite Chris Freytag workout. The second portion is more fun than the first and you can really feel the burn. Especially with the squats. The first segment is fun as well, but it wasn't very intense. It is the same dance sequence you just keep adding on to it, and it became sort of boring. - posted by Christie on 12/3/2007 |

| A Mixed Workout |
| I really like Chris Freytag. As an instructor she is motivating without being over the top. However, this is not my favorite video featuring this instructor. I found the first segment to be a bit easy. However, on the positive side, the second half of the tape is a little bit more difficult. An advanced exerciser might find this workout to easy. However, a beginner/intermediate exerciser will probably like this DVD. - posted by Marie on 11/9/2007 |
