I chose to do this workout mostly out of curiosity from the title. I am so glad I did. This is an awesome metabolic/endurance workout. It wasn't quite what I expected by the title. A giant set is circuit training with very little rest between sets; however I always associate giant sets with focusing on … Continue reading Cathe Live: Compound Giant Sets

Cathe Live: Metabolic Conditioning
Metabolic Conditioning was my Christmas workout. I was up late last night (and ate and drank too much!), we had stockings & gifts this morning, then dinner at noon and another dinner with the in-laws this evening. Not much time to workout! Metabolic Conditioning sounded short, intense and sweet at only 42 minutes. And it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Metabolic Conditioning
Cathe Live: Strong Upper Body w/ Core
Strong Upper Body w/ Core is an amazing upper body workout! My new favorite. I will definitely be utilizing this workout a lot. This is also one of the many, many things I love about Cathe Live--the muscle split workouts. Cathe has always created amazing muscle split workouts on DVD, but I personally would prefer … Continue reading Cathe Live: Strong Upper Body w/ Core
Cathe Live: Total Body Cardio & Weights
Yet another awesome cardio + strength workout from Cathe Live. Cathe's live workouts are a treasure trove of these types of workouts--and btw, cardio + strength is my absolute favorite type of workout, and Cathe consistently does it better than anyone else out there. Not necessarily metabolic strength, tho I do love that, too, but circuit … Continue reading Cathe Live: Total Body Cardio & Weights
Cathe Live: High Intensity Aerobic Weight Training w/ Step
I love this workout! What an awesome workout! A total body cardio + strength workout. Cathe set it up in 7 rounds. Each rounds starts with a cardio move on a 10 inch step then moves into strength work--some of it upper body, some of it lower body, some of it combines upper and lower … Continue reading Cathe Live: High Intensity Aerobic Weight Training w/ Step
Pure Barre: Lowry Lofts 1
Lowry Lofts 1 is another library check out. The library has a total of 4 Pure Barre workouts: 16th Street 1 & 2, and Lowry Lofts 1 & 2. I liked 16th Street 2 and found it challenging enough that I wanted to try the others--until I saw the prices! These are expensive workout DVDs … Continue reading Pure Barre: Lowry Lofts 1
Cathe Live: Hard Strikes Low Impact Boxing
Hard Strikes Low Impact Boxing is a very cool workout. After signing up with Cathe Live and perusing the offerings, some things jumped out at me that went to the top of my list to try. One of those things was the low impact workouts Cathe Live offered. I generally really like Cathe's low impact … Continue reading Cathe Live: Hard Strikes Low Impact Boxing
Cathe Live: Super Cuts with Cardio Blasts
Super Cuts w/ Cardio Blasts is the first Cathe Live I have not loved, and I really thought I would. I love her DVD Super Cuts workout, so I expected the addition of cardio blasts would make it even better. Eh. Not so much. It was not a bad workout, but I didn't like it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Super Cuts with Cardio Blasts
Cathe Live: Low Impact Cardio & Strength w/ Step
Another awesome Live workout from Cathe. Low Impact Cardio & Strength w/ Step is reminiscent of Athletic Training from Cathe's Low Impact series (which I love) but different enough not to make you feel like you are doing the same workout. It is a great cardio + strength workout and lots of fun. This time … Continue reading Cathe Live: Low Impact Cardio & Strength w/ Step
Cathe Live: Cardio Strength Blast
Another winner from Cathe Live. In fact, so far, I have liked (if not loved) every Cathe Live workout I have done. They are some of the most enjoyable workouts I have done in a long time. They make me really remember why I got addicted to home workouts in the beginning. Cardio Strength Blast is … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Strength Blast
