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

Ignite by Spri Hi-Intensity

Ignite by Spri Hi-Intensity is a collection of 4 workouts led by Brett Hoebell that are each approximately 25 minutes long. They are supposed to be super intense 25 minute workouts--in fact 3 of them have HIIT in the title. HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training; however, I did not find any of these … Continue reading Ignite by Spri Hi-Intensity

Cathe Live: Hi-Lo HIIT w/ Step

Another awesome Cathe Live workout. Just like Hi-Lo HIIT Live, this workout is based on Ripped with HIIT series and gives you a "premix" you do not get with the DVDs. And I absolutely love it! These are the kind of premixes I love but we never get on DVD. Just like the other live workout, … Continue reading Cathe Live: Hi-Lo HIIT w/ Step

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

Rock It Sock It is 53 minutes long; 11 minute warm up, 20 minutes of cardio boxing, 8 minutes of cardio kickboxing, 8:30 more minutes of cardio and 4 minute cool down/stretch. All you need for this workout is boxing or weighted gloves. It also has heavy bag segments if you own one of those, but … Continue reading Cathe Live: Rock It Sock It

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

The Booty Barre : Beginner’s & Beyond

I'm a big fan of Tracey Mallett's workouts but I put off purchasing this one because of the subtitle: Beginners & Beyond. I am not advanced in the barre realm but I also don't want a beginner workout. But the more I read about it the more I decided I might like it anyway. The … Continue reading The Booty Barre : Beginner’s & Beyond

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

Lose the Belly Flab

Lose the Belly Flab is another new-to-me workout by Tracey Mallet. I decided to get this one because she mentioned it in Get Your Body Back. She tells you to use the two workouts together. So I checked this one out and though it is core focused it also has lower body work, so I … Continue reading Lose the Belly Flab
