Yet another Cathe Live I was pretty excited about since the DVD Athletic Training is an awesome workout and one of my favorites. When done right, the beauty of the Cathe Live workouts that are based on her DVD workouts is that they are similar enough to retain the spirit of what you love about … Continue reading Cathe Live: Athletic Training

R.I.P.P.E.D.
R.I.P.P.E.D. is another library check out for me. I was browsing the workout DVDs and was intrigued by this one. I had never heard of the trainers. It is led/created by husband-wife team Terry and Tina Shorter. Having done a search for them now, this is their only DVD but it appears they stream workouts through … Continue reading R.I.P.P.E.D.
Cathe Live: High/Low HIIT
High/Low HIIT is a very cool workout--more so than I expected. In fact, it is the Ripped with HIIT premix you always wanted but wasn't offered on DVD. A workout that alternates the high impact/plyometric HIITs from Ripped w/ HIIT with the low impact HIITs from the same series. I LOVED it! Excellent and intense. … Continue reading Cathe Live: High/Low HIIT
Cathe Live: Metabolic Circuit Blast
Metabolic Circuit Blast is a very intense HIIT/metabolic strength training workout and I love it! Cathe Live workouts almost never disappoint! This is the 34th Cathe Live workout I have tried and so far I have loved all of them except for 3 (two I didn't like and 1 I liked but didn't love). All … Continue reading Cathe Live: Metabolic Circuit Blast
Cathe Live: Crossfire Express
Crossfire Express is a short but intense workout based on one of Cathe's DVD workouts Crossfire. And Crossfire is one of my all time favorite HIIT/metabolic strength training workouts. So I was both excited and apprehensive to try this one. Excited for obvious reasons, but apprehensive because I love the DVD version of Supercuts but … Continue reading Cathe Live: Crossfire Express
Meta Shred 21
Never has marketing sold me on a program as strongly as it has Meta Shred. I am familiar w/ BJ Gaddour from 10 Minute Torchers and though I liked him and his workouts, his name is not what sold me. I follow Men's Health on Facebook and the ad for Meta Shred kept popping up. I … Continue reading Meta Shred 21
Cathe Live: Cross Train Lower Body
Wow--this was a more intense Cathe Live workout than I expected. For some reason I did not expect this to be so cardio intensive (even tho she says there is cardio in the workout description on her forum). It is strength + cardio and it is also contrast training. Overall more challenging than I expected. … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cross Train Lower Body
Cathe Live: Cardio Leg Blast w/ High Step
This was a super tough Cathe Live workout! It wasn't exactly what I expected but it definitely fried my legs. Due to the title I was expecting the workout to alternate between cardio and strength but that's not how it played out at all. It started with cardio then went to very intense metabolic work … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Leg Blast w/ High Step
The Master’s Hammer & Chisel
When Hammer & Chisel was first announced I was so excited! I loved Body Beast so when I saw Sagi was coming out with a new strength training program I planned to purchase it as soon as it was available. They initially announced it via a cryptic trailer several months before it was released and showed … Continue reading The Master’s Hammer & Chisel
Kettlebell Drills
Kettlebell Drills by Paul Katami is a great kettlebell workout collection. It contains a 35 minute clinic in which Paul teaches you kettlebell basics such as the different grips and 15 kettlebell exercises. It was not as easy as I expected it to be, either. Yes, you get long breaks as he teaches and demonstrates … Continue reading Kettlebell Drills
