Get Ripped in 6 Minutes

I'm a big fan of Jari Love though I do not do her workouts as frequently as I used to, they are always good and very effective. Her workouts are usually high rep/endurance level circuit workouts that are frequently metabolic and so are giving you cardio with your strength work. The real benefit of some … Continue reading Get Ripped in 6 Minutes

Cathe Live: Smokin’ Upper Body Blast

Smokin' Upper Body Blast was tough! Surprisingly tough! Excellent workout. I love cardio + strength workouts--especially when they isolate the upper body. There aren't a lot of those types of workouts out there (they are usually total body or lower body focused), so when I discover one, I glom it! And this is an especially … Continue reading Cathe Live: Smokin’ Upper Body Blast

Cathe Live: Butts & Guts

It's been a long time since I did the DVD version of this workout but I do remember really liking it and finding it very challenging. So, I did the DVD version on Saturday in preparation for doing this Live today. Although the live version does use some of the same exercises and works your lower … Continue reading Cathe Live: Butts & Guts

Popsugar: Bigger Booty Workout

Bigger Booty Workout is another 10 minute lower body workout from Popsugar and Anna Renderer. Another great little workout that is a good finisher for a longer lower body or total body strength workout. This morning I used it to finish off the Cathe Live lower body workout I did (Long & Strong Legs). I … Continue reading Popsugar: Bigger Booty Workout

Cathe Live: Long and Strong Legs

I will admit that I did this workout more out of curiosity than anything else. Due to technical difficulties there is no class--just Cathe running this workout all by herself. I was intrigued! The forum post about it states one of the cameramen had a medical emergency so that is why this workout was filmed … Continue reading Cathe Live: Long and Strong Legs

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

Focus T25

I have been on the fence about this program for a long time. I couldn't decide from the information and trailer that Beachbody provided whether I really wanted this program or not. That didn't stop me from following (and bidding) on it on Ebay many times over the past few years. I always lost the … Continue reading Focus T25

Cathe Live: Muscle Max with Step

As I mentioned in my review of Cathe Live Muscle Max (no step), I prepped for these two live workouts by doing the DVD version of Muscle Max first. This workout caught me by surprise--Cathe did this live just last week. But I managed to rearrange my rotation and make it fit! Muscle Max DVD … Continue reading Cathe Live: Muscle Max with Step

Cathe Live: Muscle Max (no step)

Muscle Max Live (no step) is based on the DVD Muscle Max. So in order to prep for this workout I did Muscle Max (DVD) on Saturday. There are a lot of differences between this workout and the DVD version but we will get to those in a minute. When I set up my workout … Continue reading Cathe Live: Muscle Max (no step)

Cathe Live: Total Body Reps

Total Body Reps is the other Cathe Live workout that I believe is based on her DVD High Reps workout. The other one is High Reps Total Body, which I did on Monday. To prep for both workouts I did the DVD High Reps on Saturday. They are all excellent total body strength workouts but … Continue reading Cathe Live: Total Body Reps
