…so I do it at home
I love cardio + strength workouts. I also love low impact cardio so this looked like a winner. And I was right! I found it pretty intense. It is actually a shorter version of #381 "Plyo" Legs Low Impact--but only by 10 minutes. Since this workout is so short, I combined it with one of … Continue reading Cathe Live: 408 Low Impact Cardio & Legs Express
Upper Box Lower Tone is a YouTube workout from Kelly Coffey-Myer. When Kelly started her streaming service, CoffeyFit Raw a few years ago, she uploaded 6 workouts to YouTube and they were awesome. Then she deleted them. It appears she has returned to YouTube with more workouts. I have been meaning to try them for … Continue reading CoffeyFit Raw: Upper Box Lower Tone
I was very excited when I saw this workout for multiple reasons. One, it is a cardio + strength workout that focuses on the upper body. There are not many of those out there. And second, this was apparently filmed during the pandemic and Cathe is leading the workout solo--no class. Those are some of … Continue reading Cathe Live: #336 Low Impact Cardio Compound Upper Body
NourishMoveLove has actually been on my radar for a while. I have quite a few of their workouts saved to my "Need to try" YouTube playlist. This was the right length to add onto the end of another workout and finally sample one of their workouts. This is a short but very enjoyable and effective … Continue reading NourishMoveLove: 15-Minute Zone 2 Cardio with Weights (All Standing, No Jumping)
The word plyo is in quotation marks because this is a low impact workout. So no real plyometrics. But it is a cardio + strength workout that will fry your lower body. Though you aren't doing any real jumping (there is lots of "hopping"), every move, both strength and cardio, will work your legs. Since … Continue reading Cathe Live: #381 “Plyo” Legs Low Impact
This is a very enjoyable workout. A lot is going on! This workout consists of low impact cardio blasts alternated with lower intensity recovery moves. The recovery moves are functional core and mobility moves. It is not a huge calorie burner like a pure cardio workout would be, but I still burned 256 calories in … Continue reading Cathe Live: #478 Low Impact HIIT with Active Recovery
When Cathe had her 2024 Black Friday Sale, I decided to peruse her Live workouts and see if any looked interesting. There were quite a few! She has a lot of PHA workouts, which I love. So when I saw "heavy weight" in the title of this one, it went into my shopping cart. PHA … Continue reading Cathe Live: 426 PHA Strength: Heavy Weight Express
This is the last of the Fit Tower workouts. #513 Fit Tower Sculpt is technically the last one but I did that one before I did this one. So this is the last one for me. Cathe is not creating anymore and she sold off all of the Fit Towers that were in her gym. … Continue reading Cathe Live: #430 Tower Circuit Sweat Express
