Rating: Summary: It's not interval training! Beginners Only! Review: I am truly disappointed with it. It definitely did not feel like an interval training . Ok maybe she had 3 one min intervals but that's a joke. You don't call a workout interval training if that's all you offer. She should have called it a light or beginners' cardio so people know what they are getting. And why were the weights there? She would have needed them if there were high intensity intervals that needed recovery time. And she's very fast with the moves. If I did not have good coordination I would probably have given up after 10 min. I have Prevention's Walk your way Slim. This one is similar to Kobler's but it's so more advanced and it really gets your heart going and it's longer. I don't think I'll be doing P.Kobler's Intervals Training again. She might have great step workouts but that definitely wasn't a good product. I just did not feel as if I've worked out well once I was done with it. She should have not called it interval training.
Rating: Summary: Calling all Baby Boomers Review: I have been an avid exerciser for 15 years, doing a lot of the Firm Videos. As I'm getting older, and my joints are getting more sensitive, I've been looking for a tape to get my heart rate up and really provide a good workout. This one is it! The Cardio is excellent and well cued and the balance and core work along with a little yoga thrown in is a great bonus. I can't recommend this tape strongly enough. Good going Petra!
Rating: Summary: Very good workout Review: I love this workout. It is a great 38 minute workout that I never get bored doing. Petra changes the workout a lot so it doesn't drag on each segment forever. I is a wonderful to snatch up for a cold winter when it is hard to go outside to workout. It also grows with you. There are 3 levels to pick from. I am planning on getting more trainers edge DVD's to add to my collection
Rating: Summary: this girl is too in love with herself, made me sick doing it Review: i thought i was going to throw up if this acient was going to keep talking, she never shut up! the workout had potential, but i could never get over her non stop chatter, stop talking and work out! my gosh, Leisa hart nver does this, you would think other teachers would clue in and learn to instruct better, i did not like Petra and think she'll bug more people than just me
Rating: Summary: Fun!!! But must be a quick learner Review: I wanted a cardio session without any step routines and I got it. Love it!It is very much like doing a session at the health club. ^_^ VERY fun but please be aware...the moves are quick and you must learn the routines quickly. She's got charisma and the upbeat music that is worthy of my fitness library. She is also realistic when it comes to our body's state each day. So there are three strength levels that you may choose from....I will leave it at that...buy the DVD.
Rating: Summary: Superb workout! Review: Petra Kolber's Cardio Interval Training reinforces my admiration for Petra and her professionalism. What really attracts me to her style is that they are simple, easy but very effective. It gives you an instant fix, as well as a sense of well being which is just fabulous! My arms and legs are now more toned, without ugly bulky muscles. The shape the workout gives you is just really sexy, not over, not under - healthy, but still feminine of course that is, if you do her workout at least 3 times a week. Of course I do other workout still, like Petra's Sweat Factory which are faster, but I see the different shape I have since I started this new DVD. Congratultaions Petra! I'm a die hard fan and you still loook ever so wonderful!!
Rating: Summary: A Fun and Effective Cardio Fat Burner! Review: Sure, the title is misleading. This workout should be called circuit training because it's a combination of cardio and weights. Nonetheless, I love this workout! It is fun and effective in a short amount of time. You can make the moves harder by exaggerating your moves and using heavier weights. Even though you use weights, I would still consider this a cardio workout since the weight segments are too short anyway. This workout is suited for beginners/intermediates. As with most exercise videos, there is always a way if you want to add more intensity - MODIFY!

Rating: Summary: Respectable sweat Review: This DVD is fun, a pretty decent workout (advanced beginner - intermediate) and a good time (40 mins) for days when you don't have an hour or so to spare. I really liked the trainer, though you need to know something of form yourself as she doesn't say much about it, and the workout is over before you know it. I didn't find it confusing, but then I work out to DVDs every day - I just enjoyed myself. I have to say, I have NO IDEA what the weights parts are doing there: they are far, far too short to do anything really except give more variety to the moves - which I guess is okay. I liked the 10 minute bonus DVD feature of a Baron Baptiste yoga workout too; of course, I know it's really an advert but it provides a nice stretch for after this workout. I'm English, and don't like the over-peppiness of some American programmes - this verges on the annoying but doesn't get there as Petra is really likeable. Recommended.
