Cathe Live: Hi-Lo Cardio Kickboxing

Hi-Lo Cardio Kickboxing is another great cardio workout from Cathe. But it wasn't quite what I was expecting. When I see "Hi-Lo" I am anticipating an interval type workout where we alternate between low impact and high impact moves--maybe even some HIIT level work. That's not the way this workout plays out. The first 20 … Continue reading Cathe Live: Hi-Lo Cardio Kickboxing

Cathe Live: Drill Max

Drill Max Live is based on Cathe's DVD Drill Max which I love but haven't done in years. It is a long workout--77 minutes, so it used to be reserved for my Saturday workout. In fact, for a long time (2012-2013 time frame) Drill Max and Body Max 1 & 2 were my Saturday workouts. … Continue reading Cathe Live: Drill Max

Cathe Live: Lean Lower Body

For anyone reading/following these Cathe Live reviews, I know it is getting old. But I LOVE this workout! I know, I know. I love them all. They are all awesome in their own way. Some I have nitpicks about, some I don't. This one? Not a single nitpick. It is perfect in every way. Lean … Continue reading Cathe Live: Lean Lower Body

Cathe Live: Upper Body with Ball

I love Cathe Live's split series workouts--especially the upper body ones, and this one is no exception. The upper body strength work is excellent, as usual. However, I do have a few nitpicks. What I don't love about this workout is the very long core section. It is a very good core section, but it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Upper Body with Ball

Cathe Live: PHAT 2

PHAT stands for Peripheral Heart Action Training and I was so excited when Cathe announced she was doing a PHAT 2. If you follow my Cathe Live reviews you know that PHA Training (or PHAT #1) is my favorite Cathe Live so far. I love it! Here is Cathe's description of what PHAT is: With PHA … Continue reading Cathe Live: PHAT 2

Cathe Live: All About Legs

All About Legs is another  excellent lower body workout in the Cathe Live collection. It fried my legs (especially my inner thighs). Though different in many ways, it is similar in structure to Xtrain's Legs--especially when you do the premix that includes the bonus barre. The differences between this workout and Legs contains reasons that … Continue reading Cathe Live: All About Legs

Cathe Live: Lean & Mean Legs

Another excellent and intense lower body workout from Cathe Live. It is put together very nicely. It starts with cardio, blends into metabolic strength training, then endurance/high rep strength training and ends w/ yoga/bodyweight strength training. Very well done, too. Cathe worked each leg equally throughout the entire workout. As I mentioned in the Cathe … Continue reading Cathe Live: Lean & Mean Legs

Cathe Live: Barbell Upper Body

I have been kind of depressed the past week or so. My Apple TV was having buffering problems and I was unable to do any Cathe Live workouts. Not only was it wasting my time in the mornings as I tried to get it to work but it was screwing up my workout rotation. After … Continue reading Cathe Live: Barbell Upper Body

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 Mashup

Metabolic Mashup is Cathe's most recent Live workout. Normally I don't do Cathe Lives this quickly, but something about this workout excited me. I love Cathe's metabolic workouts and the video clip for this looked awesome. So I squeezed it in today on my rest/yoga day. And finished it off with yoga (I love my … Continue reading Cathe Live: Metabolic Mashup
