Amy Bento - Advanced Step Challenge 3-2

A high-impact, high-intensity workout that features a fast-paced mix of athletic-style combos. No “girly” hip shakes here — this program gets its complexity from an endless variety of powerful, non-stop combinations (“turn step, repeater, jack, pivot, kick, chassé ... now do it again on the left side”). It’s all taught add-on style with new movements and new directional changes added into the previous patterns (including both sideways and toward-the-TV step positions). The workout ends with a well-deserved series of long, deep stretches. The second program is all abwork; it’s divided into two segments that use different equipment to challenge your core in different ways. The toning requires a resistance band and a kettlebell (or a dumbbell).
