I just did Cardio Party in this order: Warmup, Calorie Crush, Main program, 6 Pack Abs #1, Cooldown, Extended stretch.
I did it using the Main page as there wasn’t a premix in this order but it was easy to do because it’s well chaptered.
Loved the warmup, it was like a mini combo with fun moves. It was a little longer than usual at 9 minutes.
The calorie crush is like a mini IMAX step workout with a combo followed by a blast and then an active rest. I only used the platform (no risers) until I’m comfortable with the choreography. I don’t do across the top multiple times with a spin because I get dizzy either
so I did them on the floor behind the step. Overall a fun, mini step workout that comes in at under 30 minutes with the warmup/cool down added ( premix). When I know the combos, I’ll add one riser.
The main workout was fun! It has a nice mix of boxing, hi/lo, old school, low impact, and blasts. You don’t do the moves for very long so there’s not a lot of repetition which makes the time go by quickly. Very enjoyable intermediate cardio workout.
I agree with everyone about the 6 Pack Abs #1, it moves slower but the exercises are more advanced. They are all boxing inspired. I can’t do sit outs at all, it puts too much pressure on my wonky shoulder so I substitute my own version of an alternating leg across in plank position. The sit-up punch combos were do-able and the plank/Superman combo was my favorite move. Overall....challenging!
The stretch was done standing and was a nice ending. I tacked on the extended stretch and enjoyed it very much. It’s relaxing floor combination that isn’t too taxing and leaves you feeling great!
