Advanced Step Challenge 3 with Amy Bento
Nothing compares to Amy; I love this challenge as much as I love ASC1 and ASC2. I was a little frustrated when I first attempted it, because I had trouble with the box turn in combo 2; I’m glad I kept at it because this workout makes me feel fantastic. This is especially true during those times when I’ve fallen off my diet plan; ASC3 is a super calorie burner. I was doing this twice a week, but I’m adding some new Patrick G. videos for variety, until Amy hopefully finishes ASC4. This is definitely an advanced workout and one that stays in my rotation.

Amy Bento is my favorite fitness instructor for home workouts. I don’t like this workout as much as ASC1, but it’s good. I feel the choreography is more difficult to learn which is OK with patience. I wish it was slightly simpler on combo 2 is all. I do recommend it to people who like challenging choreography, and the premixes are nice to have for variety and workout length. I wish this feature was available in ASC1.

This was my first workout DVD by Amy Bento. I only got it a few weeks ago but I really like it, it has very challenging combos & good music. It’s a little long, I usually do it for about an hour and it really gets my heart pumping. I will for sure purchase other dvd’s from her.

This is a review I posted in February 2009 (this product is listed in two places on Amazon): “Nothing compares to Amy; I love this challenge as much as I love ASC1 and ASC2. I was a little frustrated when I first attempted it, because I had trouble with the box turn in combo 2; I’m glad I kept at it because this workout makes me feel fantastic.

It makes my step routines fly by! Amy indicates she won’t be completing ASC4 until next year, but this video has tremendous staying power.

Amy delivers again!! She’s such a class act!! I just love, Love, LOVE her step workouts!!! This is another fun, full wattage, high energy, sweatfest!! Anybody who knows Amy’s step knows that when she says advanced she means it. Her choreography is again so much fun and very creative and complex (somewhat less complex than Advanced Step Challenge 2 though). And, I LOVE that she always puts great, funkin, driving music to it that just drives you to keep going. It’s also high energy and will make you sweat. I also love that she always puts in a low impact modifier (Toni, I believe) for anybody who has to protect their knees or needs to keep it low key. Sometime’s I need to have a low impact option for a move so it’s great to see that there are other options for a move to take it down a notch. I love the length of it so I have the option for a longer or shorter workout. You need to be patient learning Amy’s step and I preview, preview, preview to learn it before I attempt it. I find that when I finally breakdown the code to her step patterning by watching it, then doing it comes much more smoothly. I find this is the best approach for me. But when I love something so much I’m willing to take the extra time to learn it. And find that it’s such an accomplishment!! Being able to master Amy’s step feels like I’ve hit the BIG TIMES!! I love that she’s included premixes and stretching and abs. However, I kind of secretly wished that she had snuck in some circuit weight premixes like she did on ASC2 using Slo-Mo (that was AWESOME and incredibly giving of her — she even put almost all of her Slo-Mo after the credits too — didn’t I tell you she’s a class act!). It would have been amazing if she had done some circuit premixes using All Pump Xtreme. That would have been awesome!! For all who can handle complex, UNBELIEVABLY FUN, high energy step and the learning curve that goes with it, get this workout, you won’t regret it!!
