This workout was great. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a good mix of cardio and strength or even if you're more a cardio person and you'd like to get into strength training more. I don't even own a bench for stepping, but I did other cardio exercises instead (e.g. skater lunges instead of side hop over, jumping jack session, side squat-lung-hop combination or simply all movements without stepping bench, but putting more speed and energy into it) and I'm a sweaty right now 😅. It's all about movement, right 😉!? And with this workout, it's quite easy to find alternatives as there's no choreography involved. Thank you, Chris!
One of your faithful vampires here. As an introvert your workouts offer me the opportunity to be a part of a workout community in the comfort of my home. Thanks for reminding me to just say hello. I appreciate all that you do to help us become strong, stay fit and be healthy.
I'm 74 and have been doing Chris's step classes for several months. I had done step many years ago. Love the fast basic classes and just started step and strength classes. Thanks so much. Love, love Chris's classes. I'm so glad I found them.
Comment #2 I missed Saturday's live and I looked at the after party and decided I am not yet that caliber of step so taking Chis's suggestion of doing another workout and since I had book marked this workout as a favorite, I decided to do it again. I am a sweaty mess. WOW this is still a favorite. And if you are wondering, NO, it is not easier the second time, but all the fun is still there. My title to this workout would be GIVE THIS ONE A TRY, YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID.
I'm loving your videos. I'm the wife of this subscriber, and I did step in the late 90's and am just getting back. LOVING you, Chris! Thank you! Shawna
I like the 3 minutes step portion with 1 minute strength segment. I do slow down the weight portion as I'm trying to increase my weights without sacrificing form. Keep up the great workouts!
fun, great step and weight balance - switching from one to the other is a great way to have fun and not watch the clock at all. Terrific combo for a Monday feel-good. So pleased to make it live (just!) Thank you Chris. Everyone should give these workouts a go.
Loved this workout! It was the perfect combination of cardio and strength, and I really hope it encourages more people to join your strength workouts as well as your cardio ones - there's room in our lives for both people! 😃 Thanks so much Chris! Xx
Thanks, Chris, and greetings from Toronto! This is going in my favorites list. "Alive and here" is definitely how I felt at the end of it, but I'm getting stronger all the time! My husband even joined me for this one. 🥳
I used to be upset at adding weights to the step workouts, but not anymore! The step & weight intervals are now a favorite of mine! This one was great..thanks!🥰
I’ve recently been diagnosed with osteoporosis and Christine’s workouts tick all the boxes! Cardio, weights, quad strengthening and, most importantly, fun!! She helps me stay committed to my health and well-being ❤ Highly recommend!
I love step and strength workouts! They really get the cardio going on the off-days from strength training. Planks are hard enough as they are but then the added challenge is laughing while you demonstrate how not to do a plank!😂 Thank you!
I have returned to teaching Pilates 10 classes or more a week _ as well as being a full-time grade 4 teacher and when people ask me how do I do it I tell them “CDorner Fitness! And then I tell them that as a fitness instructor and personal trainer since 1986 I know a great trainer when I experience one and Chris is it! I found her 15 months ago and she has he,pre me find my way back to instructing and to simply loving myself again! She’s the real deal! 🙏❤️🙏❤️🇨🇦🍋
Hi. I found your workouts because I don't want to go to classes and keep leaving my little 17 year old terrier home alone! They are brilliant and have re-awoken my love of Step which I've not done since my 20s. I'm now 60. Keep 'em coming and they keep Bandit happy cos his mum is home with him if not a little sweaty.
I love these strength and cardio bench workouts . 💪 My arms feel like jelly after that last combo. By the time we got to the plank I was pouring sweat. 💦 🎉
I love your step and strength workouts, even more I get up in the morning looking forward to doing your class, you make me laugh and I start my day on such a high. Thank you so much and please keep being you. Thank Kev and your other step partners too. I love the banter you have with everyone. I never regret visiting your site.
