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

Cathe Live: Cardio Mish Mosh

Cathe's Live Cardio Mish Mosh is a very cool cardio workout that I know I will return to frequently. It is comparable to Crossfire and To the Max--but only in diversity and intensity. The best way to describe this workout is to think of every single cardio/HIIT/plyo move Cathe does in her vast library of … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Mish Mosh

Cathe Live: Low Impact HIIT Circuit

This is a very cool workout and just what I needed today. This illness I am fighting hit me hard again last night so when perusing Cathe's Live workouts I was looking for something that wouldn't kill me this morning. Low Impact HIIT Circuit sounded about the right speed. And I got a great workout … Continue reading Cathe Live: Low Impact HIIT Circuit
