F.I.T. (Functional Intensity Training)

I checked this workout out at the library after doing a Popsugar workout in which Tracey Mallett was the guest trainer. The Butt Lifting Workout That's Better Than Spanx. I really liked it and, in it, she mentioned her F.I.T. workout. So when I saw it at the library I snatched it up. Having now … Continue reading F.I.T. (Functional Intensity Training)

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

BeFit: Maximum HIIT Workout for Weight Loss

Maximum HIIT Workout for Weight Loss is another 15 minute workout from BeFit. This workout is led by Mike Donavanik. I actually own one DVD by him: Extreme Burn Total Body Interval Training. I only did it once but I remember not liking it. So I was a bit hesitant when I realized he led … Continue reading BeFit: Maximum HIIT Workout for Weight Loss

Popsugar: Strapless Dress Arm Workout

So far I've focused on the lower body and cardio YouTube workouts but I decided that I should sample some of the upper body workouts, too, since they could be nice finishers for my longer upper body and total body workouts. So, this morning was Cathe Live: Low Impact Cardio & Strength and I finished … Continue reading Popsugar: Strapless Dress Arm Workout

Popsugar: Fat Burning Pilates

This is my first 30 minute workout by Popsugar and I didn't know what to expect. I was intrigued by the title and the little bit of it I watched. A sort of cardio-pilates workout. And I will be honest, I did not expect this to be super hard. Well--it was! This was a very … Continue reading Popsugar: Fat Burning Pilates

Cathe Live: Total Body Barbell & Bands

Total Body Barbell & Bands was another excellent (and long) total body strength workout. Cathe doesn't have too many long workouts on Cathe Live but the ones she has are challenging and thorough. I really like the set up of this one, too. She starts you out with lower body then hits the majority of … Continue reading Cathe Live: Total Body Barbell & Bands

Cathe Live: Bootcamp Blast Off

Bootcamp Blast Off is a fun total body cardio + strength workout.  It is set up in 7 rounds; each round consists of cardio, compound/metabolic strength, lower body strength and upper body strength. Though Cathe does point out a few times that you are hitting every muscle in the body--that's not really true. The back … Continue reading Cathe Live: Bootcamp Blast Off

Cathe Live: You Can Do Anything for a Minute

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

Cathe Live: Fit ‘N’ Firm

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

Cathe Live: Blast, Barre & Bands

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
