Keep the Cardio Coming is an intense all cardio workout. And for a Cathe Live cardio workout, it is long. It is even long for Cathe's more current DVD cardio workouts! Cathe used to do lots of hour long DVD cardio workouts (some even longer than an hour--Maximum Intensity Cardio), but those days are over unless … Continue reading Cathe Live: Keep the Cardio Coming

Cathe Live: Upper Body Challenge w/ Ball
Upper Body Challenge w/ Ball is another excellent upper body strength workout from Cathe Live. There are so many things I love about Cathe Live but her upper body muscle split workouts are one of the major bonuses. She works the entire upper body in this workout and works it well. I feel like no … Continue reading Cathe Live: Upper Body Challenge w/ Ball
MetaShred Extreme
Since I loved B.J. Gaddour's MetaShred 21, I was very excited when he announced the next level--MetaShred Extreme. My husband pre-ordered it for me as a birthday gift. I had already impulse purchased B.J.'s DeltFit Speed Shred and that has been sitting on my shelf for several months. The original plan was to do DeltaFit first, … Continue reading MetaShred Extreme
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
Cathe Live: Chiseled Legs & Abs
Chiseled Legs & Abs is another great lower body workout from Cathe Live with a very long core section. Though I did enjoy it, it wasn't my favorite lower body workout Cathe has created. Because I did it on a Saturday, I finished it off with Xtrain: Legs floor work + stretch--so an additional 17 … Continue reading Cathe Live: Chiseled Legs & Abs
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
Black Fire
I remember when Bob Harper first announced the Black Fire fitness program. I was so excited! Then I found out it would not be offered on DVD. You have to subscribe to Daily Burn and stream it. I was not only very disappointed but I assumed I would never try it unless it was eventually put on … Continue reading Black Fire
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
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
