Step HIIT + Upper Body Weights is the second Cathe Live that Cathe created and this one was done much better than Kickbox Bootcamp (the first Cathe Live Cathe created)--which is a great workout but full of problems, IMHO. On the Cathe Live site this is just listed as Step HIIT; however, on her forum she … Continue reading Cathe Live: Step HIIT + Upper Body Weights

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: Upper Body with Ball
I love Cathe Live's split series workouts--especially the upper body ones, and this one is no exception. The upper body strength work is excellent, as usual. However, I do have a few nitpicks. What I don't love about this workout is the very long core section. It is a very good core section, but it … Continue reading Cathe Live: Upper Body with Ball
Cathe Live: Athletic Training
Yet another Cathe Live I was pretty excited about since the DVD Athletic Training is an awesome workout and one of my favorites. When done right, the beauty of the Cathe Live workouts that are based on her DVD workouts is that they are similar enough to retain the spirit of what you love about … Continue reading Cathe Live: Athletic Training
Physique 57: Classic 57 Minute Full Body Workout
This was a very tough workout. I was able to execute every move but there was some serious muscle burn going on! The lower body section was long, hard and painful and so was the core. The easiest part was the upper body segment. I got this workout for 50 cents used. I am really … Continue reading Physique 57: Classic 57 Minute Full Body Workout
Cathe Live: Metabolic Mashup
Metabolic Mashup is Cathe's most recent Live workout. Normally I don't do Cathe Lives this quickly, but something about this workout excited me. I love Cathe's metabolic workouts and the video clip for this looked awesome. So I squeezed it in today on my rest/yoga day. And finished it off with yoga (I love my … Continue reading Cathe Live: Metabolic Mashup
Cathe Live: Gloved Up & Ready
Gloved Up & Ready is another excellent cardio boxing + metabolic strength training workout from Cathe Live. This one is particularly fun and intense due to the structure. It is 50 minutes and since it starts with cardio boxing, I have no idea how long the warm up is; you start punching immediately and it blends … Continue reading Cathe Live: Gloved Up & Ready
Cathe Live: Strong Upper Body Express
For such a short strength workout, Strong Upper Body Express is excellent. As usual, Cathe does a thorough job hitting every muscle group and fatiguing them really well. By the end, she pretty much burned out nearly every muscle group in the upper body. It is pretty fast paced, too--the express part, I suppose. She … Continue reading Cathe Live: Strong Upper Body Express
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
Killer Arms & Back
Killer Arms & Back is the 4rd (and final) workout collection in Jillian Michael's Killer series. The other 3 workout collections in the series are Killer Abs, Killer Buns & Thighs and Killer Body. This DVD contains 3 approximately 30 minute workouts that work the entire upper body--not just the arms and back. And since this … Continue reading Killer Arms & Back
