#214 Total Body Giant Sets 2 is an incredibly intense, total body metabolic strength workout. Another Cathe Live winner! I was working very hard. I burned more calories doing this workout than I burned I doing In the Ring yesterday! (According to my FitBit.) Plus, I was in my peak heart rate a few times … Continue reading Cathe Live: Total Body Giant Sets 2
#278 PHA 2020 is awesome!!!! I love Cathe's PHA workouts and this one is another winner. I am definitely buying this one. This workout is based on her Step Boss: PHA 3 workout but I like this one tons better. Not just because it is easier (it is) but I feel like it does a … Continue reading Cathe Live: PHA 2020
This is the final DVD in Tracie Long's Core Movements series. This DVD contains Volume 5: Push Back and Volume 6: Bottoms Up. Before I get to information on these specific workouts, I have to discuss the actual physical DVD. I ordered the Core Movements series through Tracie Long's website. When I received them, the 3 … Continue reading Core Movements: Volumes 5 & 6
#160 Fit Tower Live is apparently a road trip workout and it is a full house--there are tons of exercisers! I think Cathe said 106 people. This is a Live version of her Fit Tower Bootcamp DVD, which I like much better than this. In fact, I didn't like this workout at all--it was too busy … Continue reading Cathe Live: Fit Tower Live
I have been away from Cathe Live for a long time. I did plan to return sooner than this but life got in the way. But then Cathe started selling downloads of her live workouts. I bought my absolute favorites and also did some perusing of the 100+ she has created since I was last … Continue reading Cathe Live: Fit Tower Tone & Tighten
PHA 3 is part of Cathe's new workout series Step Boss. The other two DVDs in this series are Step Sync and Imax 4. Cathe also created a Quick Start Users Guide to accompany this series. I really wasn't sure how this workout fit into the "Step Boss" idea. I mean, there is no cardio … Continue reading Step Boss: PHA 3
Core Movements is a series of workouts by Tracie Long. There are 3 DVDs in this series and each DVD contains 2 approx. 30 minute workouts. Once I fell in love with Tracie's workouts I started hoarding all of her newer stuff but for some reason I avoided these Core Movements workouts. The idea of … Continue reading Core Movements: Volume 1 & 2
Focus: Weightless is a bodyweight strength and cardio workout from Tracie Long. That must be what the title represents (but I don't know this for sure)--strength work without weights. No equipment is needed for this workout except an exercise mat and Tracie claims you will work every muscle in your body in the course of … Continue reading Focus: Weightless (Volume 6)
Full Upper Body Workout // Toning + Strength is another excellent metabolic strength workout from Heather Robertson. This morning was upper body day for me so I stacked several of Heather's workouts to equal my hour. I started with her 5 Minute Warm Up, then I did her Arm Toning + Strength Workout which is … Continue reading Full Upper Body Workout // Toning + Strength
Overload Training contains 4 workouts from Linda @ Barlates. These workouts are not available for free on YouTube. You can purchase them on Amazon, Total Fitness DVDs or as DVDs or downloads from Linda's website. The idea behind these workouts is that you "overload" whatever muscle group Linda is focusing on, working it to full fatigue before … Continue reading Barlates: Overload Training
