Cathe Live: Rock Body Boot Camp

Another bootcamp workout from Cathe Live! I really enjoyed this workout but it definitely was not her most intense. I did use it for a metabolic cardio day workout but even the cardio/metabolic aspect wasn't super intense. But it was still a good workout and worked well for a Sunday when I normally try to … Continue reading Cathe Live: Rock Body Boot Camp

Cathe Live: Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core

Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core is another fun, effective and excellent workout that is unique to Cathe Live. You get it all in this workout: cardio, barre, core and total body strength training. Now, I will say it isn't the most thorough strength training workout and, because of the brisk pace, you cannot lift … Continue reading Cathe Live: Circuit Works Plus Barre & Core

Cathe Live: Body Blast Boot Camp

Body Blast Boot Camp appears to be based on the Strong & Sweaty series Boot Camp workout. That is an excellent bootcamp workout and so is this one. It is intense and fun. I like to use these bootcamp workouts more as metabolic cardio workouts rather than strength training, so I used the same weight … Continue reading Cathe Live: Body Blast Boot Camp

Ignite by Spri 900 Calorie Burn

900 Calorie Burn is another workout from Ignite by Spri. This one is led by celebrity trainer Ashley Borden. Her little bio on the back of the DVD states she has trained Ryan Gosling and Christina Aquilera. I went to her website and she has also trained 9x UFC Champion Matt Hughes and many others. Impressive. I almost … Continue reading Ignite by Spri 900 Calorie Burn

Svelte U: Workout One

Tracey Mallett has created two new workout DVDs. They are both titled Svelte U. One is Workout One and the other is Workout Two; however they both contain three 20 minute workouts. This is obviously a review of the first DVD. Though it does contain 3 workouts, I did them all in one session, back … Continue reading Svelte U: Workout One

Cathe Live: Total Body HIIT

Another excellent total body cardio + strength workout from Cathe Live. This one is set up in 7 rounds or circuits. Each round starts with a cardio move then moves on to strength training. Each round works both the upper and the lower body and sometimes also gives you a compound/4 limb move. Overall, very … Continue reading Cathe Live: Total Body HIIT

Metabolic DVD Rotation

Here is a second metabolic rotation but this time I went with the DVD only structure since many people do not want to subscribe to Cathe Live. I went into a lot more detail about my purpose in creating a metabolic rotation in the intro to the metabolic rotation that includes Cathe Live workouts so I … Continue reading Metabolic DVD Rotation

Metabolic Rotation (DVDs + Cathe Live)

This is a rotation I have been planning to create and do for a very long time but the concept was overwhelming, considering all of the workouts I own. I have a lot of excellent ones. And then there is Cathe Live which is full of excellent metabolic workouts! The object of this rotation is … Continue reading Metabolic Rotation (DVDs + Cathe Live)

Strong & Sweaty: PHA Training

Of all of Cathe's new workouts in the Strong & Sweaty Series I was most excited about this one (with Total Body Giant Sets a close second). First let me explain what PHA Training is. It stands for Peripheral Heart Action Training. Cathe defines it as: "You'll alternate from lower body to upper body with … Continue reading Strong & Sweaty: PHA Training

Strong & Sweaty: Bootcamp

Another bootcamp workout from Cathe. I love bootcamp workouts so I was looking forward to this one. I love her Boot Camp Body Blast and her original Bootcamp workout, as well as her Cathe Live bootcamp workouts. The ICE Boot Camp Circuit workout was a bit of a disappointment for me because it was so easy … Continue reading Strong & Sweaty: Bootcamp
