Basic Step Aerobics - 126 BPM // CDornerFitness 348

[@CDornerFitness]

Are you new to Step Aerobics? This is a great way to start or start over with your step journey!! If you are still learning..how did you do with this one?

[@em4520]

I've always done your strength, mobility, and regular cardio classes. I got a new step for Christmas, and I've decided to do step on cardio days to mix it up and have more fun...for variety! I'm not new new, but new enough that I appreciate these basic step classes. Plus, I like the pace, and I just FEEL GOOD doing these basic classes. I am wondering about the optional weight vest you mentioned. What are the pros/cons? Will it help build muscle, too? What vest do you recommend? Do you/would you ever wear one?

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!! So happy you are enjoying this. A weight vest is another way to add intensity. it will not help build muscles as these only typically weight 5-15 lbs. There is a weighted vest on my amazon shop, which there is a link in the description@@em4520

[@em4520]

@@CDornerFitness Thank you ♡

[@NikkifromATL]

Hi Chris! My boyfriend has been watching me get more progressive with step. He saw me do around the world... he was impressed. Then when I asked him to step with me he said "it seems intense". I'm gonna use this video to introduce him to step and let you know.

[@CDornerFitness]

WOOO YAY!!!! Yes, please let me know how he does with it!!@@NikkifromATL

[@Vicki_Hughes]

If you're new to step, then this is a perfect workout for you! Chris is an amazing instructor who is sooooo encouraging and will make everything lovely and clear and, most importantly, achievable. Plus, her live community is a lovely bunch to step and workout with! 😊 Enjoy!! And for anyone who is a more experienced stepper, you can still enjoy this workout, just make those arm movements big! I was flapping about like a mad woman and that kept my heart rate up nicely! 😃 Thanks again Chris! Xx

[@miss_mc]

Yes, at first I was thinking it would be too easy and then remembered how slow pump moves soon catch up with you 😂 Echo everything you said!!

[@CDornerFitness]

WOOO Thank you so so much Vicki!!!!

[@christief5241]

Love your basic step workouts!

[@ben6837]

Perfect first step workout for anyone who's never done step before! Or those of us who have.

[@miss_mc]

After December away it’s sooooo good to be back with you Chris! An easy one to get us back and I love how your kindness always shines through as we are all on our own journeys to getting fit and enjoying moving. Thanks for all you do. Can’t wait for another year with you.

[@CDornerFitness]

Welcome back!!! Thank you so much for sticking with me!

[@janetfry5433]

Good morning did this one live with you! Was my third time doing step with you . Have not done step in years . Your instructions were so easy to follow made it all the way through class. You get 10 ⭐️from me !

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!! Thank you so much Janet! So happy you were able to be live with us!!!!!

[@Nastia_Khilko]

Just perfect for anyone who would like to start stepping! ❤❤❤ big thank you from a mom who is trying to keep her kids active 😊

[@CDornerFitness]

I LOVED Seeing the girls doing this!!

[@fitwithrafit175]

I love these workouts. They broke my barrier of hating/not finding the right cardio session in the morning. I now follow them first thing in the morning and my energy has been amazing. Thank you for all the effort you put into each class and for showing up for us 🤍

[@alessandrafalconi9370]

Easy, almost relaxing! Nice break from the usual Step Class and it’s quite ok after the Holidays! We have to get the newcomers to get comfortable with Steps. Thank you Chris! 🇨🇦♥️🥰

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank you!

[@ginnymarion5546]

Thanks!

[@tinavoigt7600]

This was perfect!!! I greatly appreciate the workouts and especially the "intro to step" workouts. Thank you Christina for everything you do and "KeviKev", thank you for providing great "pump me up!" music. Have a wonderful day everyone!!

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank YOU for hanging with me!!! ❤️❤️

[@HeathDubz]

This was exactly what I needed after a terrible nights sleep! Thank you as always 💜

[@LinzSee]

Same!

[@dinorahfeliciano5200]

Thank you for slowing it down. Sometimes we just need the basics. ❤

[@joansieblack]

Perfect for quality movement for non-steppers like me. Fun and a good sweat!

[@krissyfulton3757]

My 7-year-old daughter and I do your work out together for fun and we love it! Thank you! Good for our health and our relationship! Thanks again!!!

✔️done.... not new to step.. I love this class its will be my go to... . because it is perfect when you just want to get the steps in and the heart going❣️ Plus it doesn't require a lot of concentration just a little.. thanks i will share this to my non stepper friends often❣️

[@nicolebiglane7924]

I loved this workout! Great intro to step. Easy to follow and fun!🎉

[@CDornerFitness]

Yay! Thank you!

[@verasumter5441]

Did this workout this morning live, I got my workout in. By the time u started the rockin V step on the left I was sweating. Loved it, THNX

[@CDornerFitness]

Great job!

[@donnaandlarrycole]

So invigorating to start my day off with your classes… always creative with your enthusiasm and optimism. Thank you

[@juliesewell7654]

I got my step today, got to looking for a fun workout on KZbin.. I'm so glad I picked your program to do, I loved it and did get to the end.. I'm a bit on the older side and need to lose some weight and I just want to say a massive thank you.

[@CheleCanWillDo]

Perfect warm-up for lower body strength day. I changed the settings to a 1.15 speed for a fast basic step. Thank you!

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!!

[@jennifermurfet3856]

Great workout! Thank you 😊

[@lisagriffith5781]

This is a great beginner step workout. Chris is amazing and detailed on how to do each move. If you don’t have a step yet don’t let it stop you, grab a mat and get moving😊

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank you so much!!

[@ValerieFraser-c7q]

I did a couple of the advanced steps and realized I need to go back to basics. So back to basics I went! Getting the hang of it again! Thanks for not being a mirror image where we have to figure which foot you are on! So much easier to follow!! Thanks!! I love your classes. My goal is to step 3x / week!

[@sorayabeynon7941]

Loved this, third time doing your basic step videos and loving it!! Great for this 51yo mind and body, thank you 😊

[@onlyoneme3]

I love this! I’m considering you my trainer. You have so much content to offer. Thank you!

[@1970qbanmami]

This one was so amazing I felt so comfortable Chris thank u I was busy a couple of days didn’t do cardio felt terrible you cannot be around negative people it’s not healthy thank u have a blessed superbowl Sunday 🎉

[@WarEagle23]

I was not up for the hour live step today, so added a level to make this basic step a little more challenging. That definitely did the trick - my heart was pumping! Your videos are awesome because you can always modify up or down. ❤ I will catch today’s class tomorrow. Thanks, Chris!

[@CDornerFitness]

Perfect!!!

[@sae1887]

Did this as a cool down after the Christmas step workout. Then went back to the Christmas workout to finish the stretch portion. Thank Chris.

[@ginnymarion5546]

I’ve been doing step for nearly 30 years. I like the basic ones to add risers to my routine or focus on form and larger movements. Thanks for the variety!

[@revondamehovic3132]

What a fun, low key workout! Thanks Chris!❤

[@Stampiej2]

Loved it! Thank you for sharing the videos. Great opportunity to work out! ❤

[@Mom2my4blessings]

I enjoy basic step especially when I have sore legs and I want to keep moving. My hamstrings are sore from HIIT yesterday. Thank you Chris! This one is great to learn step.

[@lauriemccarroll4251]

this was perfect for me today-feeling under the weather but was able to do this and get some much needed exercise

[@CDornerFitness]

Feel better!!!!

[@FrancescaButcher]

Loved it as normal put a weighted vest on, thankyou so much xxx

[@mollyangelettipecoraro]

Great beginner basic step! You are an excellent instructor, people watching could be from mars 👽 & still understand and be able to step! 🙏❤️

[@CDornerFitness]

HAHAH Thank you Molly!

[@christinerosado12]

This is such a great workout!!! I need to do more weights but I can’t get enough of your step workouts!!!

[@MicheleCharles777]

Fun to do this basic class and see how far I’ve come in the past 2 years of step classes with Chris. I enjoyed customizing the workout with some dance moves. Thanks Chris for another wonderful workout.

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!!!! Thanks Michele!

[@evonnepowell]

I am watching this work out. I just bought a stepper and I like to watch the workout before I do it. This is so very basic. I love it. I am in my 60s and I think this is going to be my go to workout for quite a while. Thank you very much. A beginner basic workout that is just what it says it is.❤

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!! Thank you so much I am so happy you like it!! Let me know if you need to find others like it!!

[@eileengruberbauer7405]

Thank you!

[@mmmstitch]

Just started doing step again last week after a 30 or so year hiatus. The four inch bench itself wasn’t getting my heart rate up, so I went to a six inch step today and did this “simpler choreo” workout to get acclimated to a six inch step. Loving the variety of workouts you offer, and looking forward to trying more.

[@katiescapsule6610]

We really enjoyed this one! Thanks for making some great step routine!

[@CDornerFitness]

You're so welcome! Thank YOU!

[@lilianas8263]

Thanks from Brasov, Romania. I did it completely with you! You are great!

[@jackieg.7492]

Did this live yesterday since I figured legs would be feeling it by end of the day after the morning leg workout(and I was right). I enjoy the slower pace because I can add risers, maximize range of motion and concentrate on form. It may be lower BPMs but it's still a powerful workout. Chris explains everything in detail for those who are just beginning their step journey!

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank you so much Jackie G!

[@Tonya9901]

This was a perfect step class after being on vacation! Your instructions are awesome and easy to follow. 😊

[@vifonadis2013]

Another great workout thanks heaps 😊 this is a great one to do too if u haven't done step class for a while. 😊 great way to start the morning 🌄 😊 💪

[@creatormom123]

Great workout❤ I love using these basic steps for the days I feel tired and sad lol I know it's easy to follow and it's going to help me get warm. ❤🎉

[@katetucker2112]

I'm not new to step but new to Chris' step. My friends kept telling me to try them. Your cueing is excellent and there are tons of slower beat easier choreo workouts. I amped this up a little, used my arms more and got a good sweat on! Thank you Chris!

[@CDornerFitness]

Awe thank you so so much Kate!!! I am so happy you enjoyed it!!! Welcome!

[@gildarose2173]

Hi Christina I love theses classes they keep me motivated thank you.

[@tashasutherland3996]

Still nursing my ankle. This was perfect!

[@Risa-rt2yt]

Great class! Thank you! 💪🏼❤️

[@CDornerFitness]

Glad you liked it!!

[@sarahmartinez2909]

Thank you for such an easy and fun way to step. It's been a while since I exercise. I'm what you call a "vampire" and didn't had the courage to write. But now, after, about 2 months doing your step routines I'm losing weight and getting stronger. I am sooooo happy!!. 😂 I look forward, every day , to do one of the many choices you offer in step. Thank you for taking the time to break down the steps. I still have to try the abs, arms, glutes and all the other routines. A big hug from San Juan, Puerto Rico.❤❤❤

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank YOU!!!!!

[@deblandis8393]

Added a riser for this one. This is an ideal workout for anyone interested in learning step. I was a new stepper 3 years ago. Chris is an awesome instructor and her "Learn Step Aerobics" playlist helped me tremendously. I still go back to them occasionally to brush up on some of the more advanced moves.

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!! You know I am so proud of your step skills Deb!!

[@pennyoubre2975]

Just what I needed after yesterday's lower body since my butt is so sore! Perfect class for anyone starting & even if you're not a newbie, easy to make a few adjustments like running the basic step or sprinkling the triple knees etc. Thanks Chris, great class once again

[@MariaRobare]

Thank you for these slower classes as I try to incorporate a second riser to my workout once or twice a week. It makes me feel like a beginner again! But just like a beginner, I am steadily seeing progress. Thank you!

[@nikb207]

Getting back at it after a few months away and this was the perfect re-intro step workout to get me going again! As always, you are such a great instructor and your classes are easy to follow for any level. Thank you!!!!

[@TheConservativelady1539]

Started using your beginning videos for exercise and weight loss as well as toning. I sweating like crazy will be doing it 5 days a week. Just what I need. 👍🏽

[@Omi_Palomi_NH]

Your energy is contagious especially at 6 am!!!! This was a great one for beginners or anyone really. I put the speed at 1.25 and tried to increase my mind muscle conection by listening to your cues and not watching so much. I realized that I have a challenging time when the pace slows down (e.g. V-steps today). Something I have to work on, but I am so proud of how far Ihave come since I started. have a great day and thanks for all that you do!!!!!!!

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank you so much Terry!!!! I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!

[@lydiadoubleday8120]

Using this without a step as a post weight workout to help flush out some of lactate that definitely built up during today’s total body workout. Thanks for great workouts.

[@wendielocke]

It is a great little workout to ease us back in after the Christmas holiday! Thanks, as ever, Christina! You're brilliant! x

[@mariasosa-tp9xw]

I just found this channel and I absolutely love the workouts!! Thank you!!

Welcome Maria!! YAY!!! Thank you for working out with me!

[@jdk102000]

Love the variety, thanks for the awesome pep talks too!

Sometimes it’s ok to slow things down and go back to basics!

[@audreymcgregor8779]

Thank you . I so enjoyed the step class. I use to do step many many years ago. I'm am 67 . I do do weight training as well. Have a great day 😊

Thanks so much for joining me Audrey!!!

Thank you so much! I did this after the Taylor Swift step this morning because I felt like I needed a little bit more. This was perfect! -Angela

[@sallyrobinson3958]

Thank you both of you for this full body workout 🏋️‍♀️ woo hoo it was great x

[@CDornerFitness]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@AllisonM379]

I had so much fun live, so I did it again today :)

[@CDornerFitness]

Wonderful!

[@kikiclark2369]

Not at all new to step but a great shorter workout I "amped" up. Thank you Chris!!!

[@michelleg2112]

If you're new to step, I can't imagine a more perfect introduction. Although it was slow, It afforded me the opportunity to add risers and after this morning's leg workout this was still beneficial.

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank YOU!

[@lisadurant9859]

Pulled this one back out today. I am happy to report I only needed to pause the workout 3 times. :-) My goal is to complete this full workout without pausing it at all. I've given January 31 to meet that goal. I really like your teaching style. Very easy to follow.

[@AngieR.HelotesTX]

This is a great workout with those new to step!

[@ellie-aka-sirenusvex]

Thank you! I finally decided it was time to break out the step again and get back to it. I loved this session!

[@CDornerFitness]

WOO YAY!! Come back for another!!! So happy you enjoyed it!

[@janehartsough4824]

Girl, you are so damn good!!! Your instructions are clear, motivating, patient,cheerful and easy to follow and your continued explanations will make it so much easier for those who are new to step. Only had a half an hour today before I hop a train to Boston, but wanted to squeeze one in. I did “pump it up” a little, but it was quite worthwhile. You are the ultimate pro.❤

[@CDornerFitness]

Awe thank you so much Jane!! Have a great time in Boston!

[@sandywilner9572]

Very basic, great for a beginner. Gave me the opportunity to use 2 risers to work up a good sweat.

[@judykanouse8438]

This was another great class. I haven’t been disappointed yet.

[@bunny_smith]

Thank you! Trying this with a riser next time!

[@CDornerFitness]

Wonderful!!!!

[@dianelandry1923]

Your my favorite indoor home exercise guru! Happy New Year Chris and thank you-it was good to take this class to ease myself back into step class with you.

[@CDornerFitness]

Happy new year!!

[@jessica_clementine]

I've been doing your step workouts for a few years now but this was my first live! I'm more of an "advanced beginner" but this was the perfect lunchtime workout -- simple and fun, with time for a quick shower afterwards. Thank you as always for your great step workouts! (Don't worry, I strength train 3x a week too 😉)

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY! I am so happy you were able to join us live!!! Thank you so so much Jessica!!

[@bindig.6704]

Hey Chris, decided to do this workout since taking a break due to heel pain. Purchased a new pair of sneakers so we shall see how it goes. Enjoyed this because I could make it as easy or harder as I wish since I have done multiple of your work outs and you consistently give good recommendations. As always Love and Light ❤

[@CDornerFitness]

Thank you so so much!! I hope your foot pain goes away soon!

[@teaundrataylor4603]

Love this workout. New to step as I'm adding fitness into my daily routine. Love that your routine was easy to follow & very upbeat! I'll definitely be back for more. May I ask where I can purchase the step tool used in this video. I own one. However, I feel it's not wide enough for my wide steps. Thanks in advance.

[@CDornerFitness]

Good morning and thank you so much for working out with me! So glad you enjoyed this!! @@teaundrataylor4603 here is a link to the step I use a.co/d/i8PUmit

[@maggsm3392]

That was great! Love the easy step workouts. Sunday here so I think its only Saturday there. The program was a harder step so i chose this one. I'll keep doing the easy step for a while longer at least until I buy a bigger step. My step's too narrow to do anything fancy. 30 minutes just enough today after doing the 60 minute full body yesterday! Thank you so much xo

[@CDornerFitness]

YAY!!! Thanks so much!
