Simply Circuit is a cardio + strength workout, and the strength work is all upper body focused. Those types of workouts are hard to come by so as soon as I read that this was upper body focused, I bought it! I got this workout on sale on Gin Miller's website a while ago--and it … Continue reading Simply Circuit

Cathe Live: Sweat, Jump & Pump
Another tough and awesome cardio + strength workout from Cathe Live. This one really wore me out! Excellent total body strength training plus intense HIIT level cardio. I loved it! She calls it "random" training, I guess because there is no pattern to the strength and cardio intervals. It moves pretty quickly, too. And Cathe … Continue reading Cathe Live: Sweat, Jump & Pump
Cathe Live: Cardio Boxing + Plyo Legs
Cardio Boxing + Plyo Legs is a great little cardio workout. I really enjoyed it. It starts out with cardio boxing. In fact, the first 22:30 minutes of the workout, including the warm up is cardio boxing. After the warm up it goes into Cathe's familiar boxing drills/combos alternated with more intense cardio blasts. The … Continue reading Cathe Live: Cardio Boxing + Plyo Legs
Hard Work Conditioning 24/7

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: Ramped Up Cardio & Weights
It's been a while since I've done a new Cathe Live. I am still doing Cathe Live workouts, but they are ones I've already done and I know in advance what weights to use. However, I do love Cathe's cardio + strength workouts. I've done all of her Cathe Live ones that are total body workouts … Continue reading Cathe Live: Ramped Up Cardio & Weights

Boot Camp Body Blast
Boot Camp Body Blast is a new workout by Cathe Friedrich. Unlike her other workouts, it was not produced by her and it is not sold by her. It is sold through IDEA, a health and fitness association. They had a conference this year and Cathe taught a class to other trainers to teach them … Continue reading Boot Camp Body Blast
Bikini Body: Bootylicious
I am now a big fan of Tracey Mallett. After doing the fabulous F.I.T. and The Booty Barre: Total New Body, she is filling up my wishlist. Her workouts are hard, effective and she brings such a warm and personable presence to her workouts. She is encouraging and likable and I just love doing workouts … Continue reading Bikini Body: Bootylicious
Cathe Live: Lovin’ Those Legs
Lovin' those Legs is another excellent lower body workout from Cathe Live. If there is one thing Cathe never neglects, it is the lower body. Between DVDs and Live workouts, she has created a plethora of lower body workouts. And here is yet another one I love. I actually liked it a lot more than … Continue reading Cathe Live: Lovin’ Those Legs
