Low Impact Sweat is part of Cathe's ICE fitness program (Intermediate Conditioning Extreme). It is the first workout I have done from this series and my first impression is--intermediate? Really? This was very challenging! I got an excellent workout! Here is what I can guess is intermediate about this workout--when she used dumbbells to increase … Continue reading ICE: Low Impact Sweat

Cathe Live: Mish Mosh Legs
Another great Live workout from Cathe. This one is just what it says--50 minutes of lower body work. Cathe works primarily the glutes, hamstrings and quads, and she tries to work them in a variety of angles w/ dumbbells and firewalkers. I really enjoyed the diversity of this workout. Lots of fun and worked my … Continue reading Cathe Live: Mish Mosh Legs
Cathe Live: Strong Upper Body w/ Core
Strong Upper Body w/ Core is an amazing upper body workout! My new favorite. I will definitely be utilizing this workout a lot. This is also one of the many, many things I love about Cathe Live--the muscle split workouts. Cathe has always created amazing muscle split workouts on DVD, but I personally would prefer … Continue reading Cathe Live: Strong Upper Body w/ Core
Cathe Live: Upper Body Sculpting
Before I start this review, I have a disclaimer to make. I am pretty sick. I've been fighting something for the past few days (successfully I thought) then it hit me hard last night. I barely slept and I feel like crap. I felt like crap when I did this workout. And it really challenged me. … Continue reading Cathe Live: Upper Body Sculpting
Exhale: Core Fusion Barre Basics
The full title of this workout is Exhale Core Fusion Barre Basics for Beginners. I chose this workout because, in spite of the word "beginner" in the title, it got some impressive reviews. One in particular swayed me. She posted the review in May of 2013 then updated it in August of 2013. She had … Continue reading Exhale: Core Fusion Barre Basics
Pretty Fierce: Weight Loss

She has a DVD series titled MIF/Mom's Into Fitness. Yeah, I'm a mom, but mine are out of the house, grown … Continue reading Pretty Fierce: Weight Loss

Pretty Fierce: Lean Out is the other fitness program I purchased by new-to-me trainer Lindsay Brin. She has a DVD series titled MIF/Mom's Into Fitness. I bought two of her programs, Pretty Fierce: Weight Loss and this one because … Continue reading Pretty Fierce: Lean Out
Edge Booty Extreme 2
I discovered this workout system from Oxygen Magazine--they sent me a sales email. I was immediately intrigued. I am getting ready to start another round of STS in September and I am planning on adding additional glute focus. I have already tried The Butt Bible for that purpose and loved it, so I decided I … Continue reading Edge Booty Extreme 2

She is also the creator of the Fighter Diet which is strength training and diet guides for bodybuilding and fat loss.

RIPT90
I discovered RIPT90 thanks to Amazon recommending products it thinks I might be interested in based on my past purchases, my wishlist, my browsing history, etc. RIPT90 appears relatively new. I have not seen this particular program before but Amazon has recommended others by the same company: X-TrainFit. I have looked at X-TrainFit's other programs but they have never … Continue reading RIPT90
