Jenna Zaffino says that the word “caffeinated” in the title is because this is a wake up workout. From the title I initially thought that this would be in intense/vigorous cardio workout but it wasn’t. It is a feel good bounce to wake you up. I loved it! It was very enjoyable. I used it on my recovery day to warm my body up for some deep stretching. I burned a total of 232 calories and remained in heart rate Zones 1 & 2 (according to my Apple Watch), so definitely a lower intensity cardio workout. There are no complicated or intense moves. Jenna does put together a little combo that you will return to several times but it is not difficult to learn. The warm up starts on the floor but shoes are not needed for it. Everything else is done on the rebounder. I wore my rebounding socks.
