Hi Phaedra! Don't you just love step?! I definitely do. 😁 Holding light weights during step is a fantastic idea, I do that too! Haven't tried the ankle weights before, that also sounds like a good idea! I really needed to ramp up the anaerobic activity as much as possible, and adding the resistance sections has helped a lot. I've also decided to track my resolution progress through the comment section of each workout I do in order to engage with the community & for extra accountability. Thank you for your reply, feel free to say hi anytime! 😀 And all the best with your fitness journey.

Resolution Day 9 down! This year I've had to get serious about adding regular strength training (which I find super boring), so I am either doing your step with weights workouts, or doing one of the other step workouts and just inserting a separate strength session between combos. It's working well so far. Thanks for all you do!👍

Made it to 👍47:13 , right till the beginning of the weave. I'll make it a goal to do the weave on the next go around. This one is bunches of fun! The more challenging choreography distracts me into thinking so much that I can hardly tell that I'm working hard, rather than just having a blast! This is Day 8 of my New Year's Resolution, and this was a great workout. Thanks!

Enjoyed doing this one for the first time today. Because the step sections were less intense, I just added a set of risers to get max cardio effect. Thanks for this!

You're always so gracious when you introduce a starter move that seems simple (just after the 18 min mark you introduce alt knee lifts on the same end of the bench) - you explained "there's a reason why we're doing this 😀". Having stepped with you for quite some time, it builds excitement for me when you introduce a "simple" move into an intermediate workout because I already know something super fun is coming - and you didn't disappoint! Step is so mentally satisfying for me while doing your programs. Thank you for keeping it going for such a long time. 

Loved this one, I've been avoiding strength training for a while now, but still stepping because it's so much fun. But healthwise, I know I am asking for trouble by not engaging the muscles more. So this is a great way for me to sneak in the strength training while still doing what I really prefer. Thanks Jenny!👍🙂

I love this workout, it's my favorite lockdown one too!

Seems simple enough but really gets that heart pumping! Love it, as usual. Thanks Jenny!

This is my favorite of the COVID collection! I've done this one a bunch of times on YouTube, so glad it's here!

Love, love, love! My new favorite among many favorites of your intermediate routines! So excited that you are continuing the coast to coast series.
