…so I do it at home
Another great little workout from Popsugar and Anna Renderer. So far I've enjoyed every little Popsugar workout I've done. And the best part? They are all FREE! As usual, I used 20 Minute 200 Calorie Blaster as an add-on/finisher workout. I was already pretty wore out after the Cathe Live workout I had just completed--Total … Continue reading Popsugar: 20 Minute 200 Calorie Blaster
Bootcamp w/ Step is another awesome, fun and effective cardio + strength Cathe Live workout. This workout is set up circuit fashion. There are 8 circuits and each circuit consists of a cardio blast on the step followed by a lower body strength exercise and ending with an upper body strength exercise. The workout ends … Continue reading Cathe Live: Bootcamp w/ Step
Quick Fix Kickboxing plus 100 Reps Boxing Bonus Challenge plus Step & Weight Drills--that title is quite a mouthful. And an awesome workout! I loved it! When Cathe announced it, I wanted to do it right away, but I have these rotations I do... and I was in the middle of one... but I managed … Continue reading Cathe Live: Quick Fix Kickboxing plus 100 Reps Boxing Bonus Challenge plus Step & Weight Drills
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
Fit 'N' Firm is a total body metabolic strength workout. It is a very good workout but for some reason I didn't love it as much as I love most of Cathe's other Cathe Live workouts. However, I did feel thoroughly worked out. Though it is total body, I feel it hits the upper body much harder … Continue reading Cathe Live: Fit ‘N’ Firm
Blast, Barre & Bands is another unique live workout that you will not find anything quite like it on DVD. I didn't know what to expect when coming to it, but ended up loving it. First, the warm up seemed shorter than most Cathe Live workouts (and it is a bit shorter, but not by … Continue reading Cathe Live: Blast, Barre & Bands
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
Stability Ball Total Body Weights was an excellent live workout--much better than I expected. I like stability ball work, but I am wary when it is used in every single exercise in an entire workout--especially when lower body is involved. It is great and very functional for lots of exercises, but not every exercise. But … Continue reading Cathe Live: Stability Ball Total Body Weights
Cardio Circuit Challenge Express is a short but sweet little metabolic weight training workout. It alternates between strength work and cardio, but overall is very cardio heavy. Use heavy enough weights and you might feel you got a decent total body workout, too. I came at this workout as a cardio workout so I used the same weights … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Circuit Challenge Express
Whew! That was a very tough workout! Excellent total body high rep strength workout. Cathe burned out every muscle group before moving on to fry the next. I overshot it on weights a few times and had to take my own personal breaks before I could carry on; and on biceps, I had to hit … Continue reading Cathe Live: Total Body Weights
