…so I do it at home
#195 Low Impact Step Bootcamp is a metabolic cardio + strength workout. Cathe says this is an intermediate level work. You can increase the intensity by having your step at a higher level, using heavier dumbbells and/or a heavier resistance tube. I don't know... as presented, this workout didn't seem any less intense or any … Continue reading Cathe Live: Low Impact Step Bootcamp
#166 Jabs & Abs is an intense cardio boxing workout. There are no kicks in this workout but lots of punches, punch drills, punch combos and cardio bursts. I was working hard! FYI--this is not a low impact workout. At the end Cathe takes you to the mat for the core work and you immediately … Continue reading Cathe Live: Jabs & Abs
#181 Jabs & Kicks is another live cardio kickboxing workout from Cathe. I found this one intense! I burned over 400 calories, was in my peak heart rate about 1/3 of the workout (according to my FitBit) and my legs and arms got lots of great conditioning from all the kicks and punches. Jabs & … Continue reading Cathe Live: Jabs & Kicks
#167 Fit Tower Cardio Legs is another excellent Fit Tower workout. I wasn't feeling 100% when I came to this workout this morning (its been a rough weekend) but I still gave it 100% and got an excellent workout that really wore me out and worked my lower body hard. I had some serious muscle … Continue reading Cathe Live: Fit Tower Cardio Legs
#197 Cardio Kickboxing & Cardio Barre is an intense cardio workout. Though "barre" is in the title, you are not doing any real barre work. The barre (or chair back) is more of a balance assist for the last 8:30 minutes of the workout--which is just more intense cardio. The warm up is all low … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Kickboxing & Cardio Barre
#238 PHA Plus Cardio Blasts is another workout in Cathe's growing collection of PHA workouts. This workout is different from her other PHA workouts. It is more like a bootcamp workout but it still uses the PHA principle. PHA stands for Peripheral Heart Action. What this means in training terms is you alternate between upper and … Continue reading Cathe Live: PHA Plus Cardio Blasts
#232 Kick, Box & Bags is another fun cardio kickboxing class from Cathe Live. It is made up of punching and kicking drills alternated with cardio bursts. There are also a few easy to follow combos. This is also one of Cathe's lower impact kickboxing workouts though near the end she adds some higher impact … Continue reading Cathe Live: Kick, Box & Bags
#243 In the Ring is another fun cardio kickboxing class from Cathe Live. I always enjoy Cathe's cardio kickboxing workouts and this one is no exception. It is shorter than most (only 41 minutes) but it is intense. It is a high impact workout and no modifications are shown--not by Cathe and I did not … Continue reading Cathe Live: In the Ring
#160 Fit Tower Live is apparently a road trip workout and it is a full house--there are tons of exercisers! I think Cathe said 106 people. This is a Live version of her Fit Tower Bootcamp DVD, which I like much better than this. In fact, I didn't like this workout at all--it was too busy … Continue reading Cathe Live: Fit Tower Live
#272 Love Me Some Cardio Kickboxing is a fun live cardio kickboxing workout. I really enjoyed it. Not sure if I am going to buy the download but I might. In this workout we get some eye candy! Cathe even introduces him. His name is Nate and he is in the back of the class … Continue reading Cathe Live: Love Me Some Cardio Kickboxing
