Cathe Live: Long & Sculpted Legs

Long & Sculpted Legs really fried my legs. It seemed particularly appropriate after my last leg workout (Cathe Live Triset Legs) because this workout fries your lower body in a completely different way. No dumbbells, barbell or step are used in Long & Sculpted Legs. Just a sliding device (I used Slide N Glide disks), … Continue reading Cathe Live: Long & Sculpted Legs

Cathe Live: Bun Burners, Barre & Ball

Bun Burners, Barre & Ball is great workout. This is the workout you want when you want to fry your lower body but with hardly any equipment. No workout cards or weights to keep track of, but your buns will still be burning by the time this workout is over. I loved it. This workout … Continue reading Cathe Live: Bun Burners, Barre & Ball

A-Team Boot Camp

A-Team Boot Camp is a cardio + strength circuit workout by Amy Bento. I have had this DVD for a long time. I keep meaning to do it but it would get swapped with other workouts--usually Cathe Live. But I finally decided today to do it. On the back of the DVD it is rated … Continue reading A-Team Boot Camp

Cathe Live: Low Impact Cardio Leg Blast + Ball Upper Body

This was an excellent and unique total body cardio + strength workout. Cathe does a lot of cardio + strength workouts that focus on the lower body and they are always high impact, so I was very interested when I saw that the cardio blasts in this workout were low impact. Bonus! You get it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Low Impact Cardio Leg Blast + Ball Upper Body

Cathe Live Rotation

At the time of the creation of this rotation (and the end of it--when I post it), I have done 66 Cathe Live workouts out of 109. I had to stop doing new-to-me Cathe Lives during this 5 week rotation--but I am definitely not finished! I still have a list of Cathe Lives I plan to … Continue reading Cathe Live Rotation

Cathe Live: Stability Ball Total 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

Cathe Live: Drill Max

Drill Max Live is based on Cathe's DVD Drill Max which I love but haven't done in years. It is a long workout--77 minutes, so it used to be reserved for my Saturday workout. In fact, for a long time (2012-2013 time frame) Drill Max and Body Max 1 & 2 were my Saturday workouts. … Continue reading Cathe Live: Drill Max

Cathe Live: All About Legs

All About Legs is another  excellent lower body workout in the Cathe Live collection. It fried my legs (especially my inner thighs). Though different in many ways, it is similar in structure to Xtrain's Legs--especially when you do the premix that includes the bonus barre. The differences between this workout and Legs contains reasons that … Continue reading Cathe Live: All About Legs

Cathe Live: Cross Train Lower Body

Wow--this was a more intense Cathe Live workout than I expected. For some reason I did not expect this to be so cardio intensive (even tho she says there is cardio in the workout description on her forum). It is strength + cardio and it is also contrast training. Overall more challenging than I expected. … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cross Train Lower Body

The Master’s Hammer & Chisel

When Hammer & Chisel was first announced I was so excited! I loved Body Beast so when I saw Sagi was coming out with a new strength training program I planned to purchase it as soon as it was available. They initially announced it via a cryptic trailer several months before it was released and showed … Continue reading The Master’s Hammer & Chisel
