…so I do it at home
8 Minute Full Body Tabata is another mini workout from Popsugar. This one is a bit different from the others I have done so far. First, though it is led by Anna Renderer, there is no introduction and no talking. However, that doesn't make it any less cool. It is actually put together very well. It … Continue reading Popsugar: 8 Minute Full Body Tabata
This is the second free GymRa workout I've done and the first thing I want to say is I really liked this workout a lot. However, it had the same problem as the first one I did (Tabata Extreme)--boring, uninspiring music that you can barely hear. Which makes me think that maybe what I need … Continue reading GymRa: Burn 300 Calories Metabolism Booster HIIT Workout
GymRa is an online personal training subscription type thing. It costs $4.99 a month but they also have a lot of free workout videos on YouTube. I liked the titles of many of them and, after previewing several of the workouts, I decided to give them a try. The first one I tried was Tabata … Continue reading GymRa: Tabata Extreme
For the Love of Cardio is a very fun Cathe Live workout. She doesn't talk about the title but apparently she is assuming she is collecting everyone's favorite cardio moves into one workout. And maybe she is! It is a fun workout. It is structured into 6 long combos that appear to be theme based. … Continue reading Cathe Live: For the Love of Cardio
Hi-Lo Cardio & Core is an interesting workout. I guess I liked it, but I'm not positive I will ever return to it. Maybe by the time I finish writing this review I will have decided. It was a good workout, but maybe not as intense as some of her other cardio workouts. The title … Continue reading Cathe Live: Hi-Lo Cardio & Core
This workout has been on my "To Do" list since I signed up for Cathe Live, but I decided this was the perfect time to do it. I am the middle of a Ripped w/ HIIT & Gym Styles rotation, and I am doing the DVD version of this workout every other week. So it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Lift it Hiit It Legs
You Can Do Anything for a Minute is one of Cathe's newer live workouts. I was intrigued by the video clip so I shifted things around in my rotation to fit it in. And I am glad I did! It is a great cardio + strength total body workout. I got an excellent workout. But … Continue reading Cathe Live: You Can Do Anything for a Minute
I found this Cathe Live workout very tough this morning. I gave blood yesterday and didn't feel well afterward. Then this morning, I did Ripped with HIIT Lift It Hit It Chest, Shoulders & Triceps. I finished my workout off w/ High Intensity Cardio Step. And I struggled. So there was a lot going on--I … Continue reading Cathe Live: High Intensity Cardio Step
Step HIIT + Upper Body Weights is the second Cathe Live that Cathe created and this one was done much better than Kickbox Bootcamp (the first Cathe Live Cathe created)--which is a great workout but full of problems, IMHO. On the Cathe Live site this is just listed as Step HIIT; however, on her forum she … Continue reading Cathe Live: Step HIIT + Upper Body Weights
HIIT Fit Circuit is an excellent metabolic strength + HIIT workout. I really enjoyed it. However, from the way Cathe described it at the beginning of the workout, I was expecting there to be more of a strength focus but the strength work is primarily metabolic--using dumbbells to keep the heart rate elevated. Which is … Continue reading Cathe Live: HIIT Fit Circuit
