Not you average step. More. Super step cardio. Power it up

I love step but am so over the 32 / 64 count way of doing things. I start my classes with a short warm up five minutes, then transition into a squat combo. Timed squats, 2/2, 3/1, singles, about five minutes. Doing squats before prefatigues the glutes and legs making your work out harder and more beneficial. When you start on the step you immediately feel your glutes and thighs working harder, which means faster toning and muscle build. Then I work through the following combinations, it's a lot of info but such a good workout. Next I will take a short water break and start with timed lunges this time, or squats. To do all combinations takes about 20 minutes. It seems like a lot, but the transitions are fast because I've eliminated the need for basics, or knee travels. When you start from the top again, it's left lead.

This routine can be kept super basic, or gives the opportunity to add power to almost each movement.
