Be Fit in 30 Extreme

***Update--I just posted this review today, but I already received a comment (below) giving me information I did not have before I posted it. Apparently, everything on the YouTube BeFit channel is free! I had no idea. Since this was posted before I had that information, I am not changing the review post, just adding … Continue reading Be Fit in 30 Extreme

R.I.P.P.E.D.

R.I.P.P.E.D. is another library check out for me. I was browsing the workout DVDs and was intrigued by this one. I had never heard of the trainers. It is led/created by husband-wife team Terry and Tina Shorter. Having done a search for them now, this is their only DVD but it appears they stream workouts through … Continue reading R.I.P.P.E.D.

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 Circuit Blast

Metabolic Circuit Blast is a very intense HIIT/metabolic strength training workout and I love it! Cathe Live workouts almost never disappoint! This is the 34th Cathe Live workout I have tried and so far I have loved all of them except for 3 (two I didn't like and 1 I liked but didn't love). All … Continue reading Cathe Live: Metabolic Circuit Blast

Cathe Live: Gloved Up & Ready

Gloved Up & Ready is another excellent cardio boxing + metabolic strength training workout from Cathe Live. This one is particularly fun and intense due to the structure. It is 50 minutes and since it starts with cardio boxing, I have no idea how long the warm up is; you start punching immediately and it blends … Continue reading Cathe Live: Gloved Up & Ready

Cathe Live: Crossfire Express

Crossfire Express is a short but intense workout based on one of Cathe's DVD workouts Crossfire. And Crossfire is one of my all time favorite HIIT/metabolic strength training workouts. So I was both excited and apprehensive to try this one. Excited for obvious reasons, but apprehensive because I love the DVD version of Supercuts but … Continue reading Cathe Live: Crossfire Express

Meta Shred 21

Never has marketing sold me on a program as strongly as it has Meta Shred. I am familiar w/ BJ Gaddour from 10 Minute Torchers and though I liked him and his workouts, his name is not what sold me. I follow Men's Health on Facebook and the ad for Meta Shred kept popping up. I … Continue reading Meta Shred 21

ICE: Intermediate Conditioning Extreme

ICE is Cathe's latest fitness program. ICE is an acronym that stands for Intermediate Conditioning Extreme. Now, Cathe is my #1 favorite trainer and an auto-buy for me but I will not lie, when I first learned that this was intermediate level I was disappointed. I love Cathe's advanced workouts (and the majority of her workouts are … Continue reading ICE: Intermediate Conditioning Extreme

ICE: Chiseled Lower Body Blast

Chiseled Lower Body Blast is a great workout. I loved it. It is one of my favorite types of workouts--cardio + strength in which strength work is alternated with cardio blasts. However, it is part of the ICE fitness program and ICE stands for Intermediate Conditioning Extreme, so this is not as intense as Cathe's … Continue reading ICE: Chiseled Lower Body Blast

ICE: Low Impact Sweat

Low Impact Sweat is part of Cathe's ICE fitness program (Intermediate Conditioning Extreme). It is the first workout I have done from this series and my first impression is--intermediate? Really? This was very challenging! I got an excellent workout! Here is what I can guess is intermediate about this workout--when she used dumbbells to increase … Continue reading ICE: Low Impact Sweat
