Level
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.
Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).
Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.
Aerobics Impact
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.
Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.
Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.
Aerobics Choreography
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.
Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.
Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.
Toning Emphasis
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.
Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.
Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.
Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Certified instructor description: Intervals of boxing-style cardio alternated with multi-muscle toning. It's a time-efficient format that keeps you burning fat even as you're building a strong body. The aerobic segments are easy to follow, but tough ("your arms will feel like rubber"). The moves include basic crosses, jabs, hooks and upper cuts (meanwhile, your legs are nearly always in constant motion). The toning sections focus on "functional fitness" — strengthening your body to improve daily activities. Often working in multiple planes, you'll tone your upper and lower body at the same time (e.g. a reverse lunge with a bicep curl). Note: The second workout is lightly more intense than the first. Requires 5 to 10 lb. dumbbells. ©2013.
