XTrain Ride DVD
Hi Cathe, if I could make a suggestion on your cycle workout they are much better than any other ones I have done. But I would like to go back in time with the music when you do a cycle workout if the music isn't good it can be very boring. anyway I would like to have a cycle workout using oldies Your body blast series and some of your older dvd music is so much fun. so maybe the next cycle dvd you can make it oldies. love all the songs of your body blast and other old song

AfterBurn DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
This was awesome! I could not wait for the parcel to arrive and I had to do it immediately after the mailman brought my last 4 Cathe dvds. I am not sure I will be able to walk tomorrow but I will do it again in the morning:)

CrossFire DVD
I have been doing Cathe's videos from the early 90's and have to say I was a bit intimidated by this video since I had not been exercising regularly for about a year. Nevertheless, I put my "game face on" and laced up. This is, by far, one of my all-time favorite Cathe video; excellent music, perfectly cued, and a wide variety of non-stop moves! She hits the sweet-spot between intensity, achievability, and fun! It's everything you want in workout and then some!

Party Rockin' Step Workout #1 DVD
This is the step workout I've been waiting for. It's fun, it's dance-y, it is absolutely perfect for those days when I want a lower impact, less intense cardio workout. Make no mistake, though, less intense does not mean no intensity -- this is a Cathe workout! I was sufficiently sweaty and my heartrate was elevated after I did the whole thing, but it was so much fun, the time honestly flew by. Like her other workouts, I watched it first, so I had a good idea of what to do when I attempted it, so I wasn't scratching my head too much. Still, it will take me a few more times to perfect it but I don't mind. So. Much. Fun!

Cardio Core Circuit DVD
Love this workout. Time flew by and my heart rate was elevated the whole time. Plus all the ab work was a great bonus. I will be reaching for this one often.

Intensity DVD
I think the name says it all. Anytime burpees are considered a "break" you know you are in for it. Ha! The first half is step and the second half is HIIT. It's a super fun workout that seriously burns a lot of calories. I contemplate just dropping dead several times during the hour. The step portion is very easy to learn as well. I had it down after two times through, and I am very challenged when it comes to step choreography. Heart rate was soaring all the way thru. I highly recommend this workout! Side note: I did not do the bootcamp bonus section so I am not commenting on that part. I have no idea how anyone can keep going after an hour. I'm spent by that point.

Cathe Friedrich's Kick Max Workout and Exercise DVD
Great, sweat drenched workout. Nothing too fancy, and one could stay with the combo portions only if crunched for time. I was not expecting to be sore the next day from a cardio video, but my hamstrings were very tight, most likely from the wickedly intense blasts at end. Honestly, I've done all the XTrain series, and now I'm working my way through the Hardcore, and I only have positive things to say about Cathe's workouts. Well done!

Party Rockin' Step Workout #2 DVD
This is a great step workout. My heart rate stays elevated the entire time and I am sweating buckets by the end. I am very chorography challenged. I can not do many of cathe's step workouts like IMAX 3. This workout however was very doable. I got all the steps pretty much down by the second time thru. Premixes are great as well.

Athletic Step DVD
I just finished this in its entirety for the first time and I am drenched in sweat! There are a few parts of some of the combos I did not get perfect, but it flows so well, I'm sure I will get perfect them within the week. Great workout, good music, and Cathe and the crew deliver a solid workout once again. AS is a great workout for Catheletes and newcomers to Cathe alike.

Cathe Friedrich's HiiT workout video and high intensity exercise dvd
I downloaded the 40/20, for some reason each workout is a separate download, and it is intense. Yes, the intensity comes from within, but if you push hard, you'll be drenched in sweat. I'm in excellent shape but by the end, I was really looking forward to those 20 seconds of rest. I can't wait to get the other two! Excellent job!

Terminator DVD (from the Intensity Series)
I've loved doing Imax Extreme for years. It's a great way to get in a longer cardio with the added benefit of weight work. I did the Viper for the first time today, and while I really enjoyed it, I was surprised that the weight work was both lower and upper body, as the description only lists the upper body work. I actually like the fact that it works both. Can't wait to try the Gauntlet. The time just flies by with these workouts. Love!

Boot Camp + Muscle Endurance DVD (from the Intensity Series)
You know it's a tough workout when Cathe cannot speak because she is so out of air. This is a seriously intense and fast moving class (Boot camp).

I am getting back into exercising after years of neglect so I cannot do many of the cardio and ab segments, but I did my own stuff when necessary and I joined back in when I was able. The class was still really tough- but as others note - it goes by fast.

I LOVE the rotation of body parts and the one minute cardio. Made me feel like I could complete the exercise because it would not last long.

Another brilliant class by Cathe!

Turbo Barre DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
hehe -I did this workout this morning and I am feeling it. Mostly on the side of my thighs and my feet - working on the toes sure does exercise muscles I never exercise. The arch in my feet are going to be very strong from this (not to mention every other body part!).

I don't have the tower thingy to do this workout - I used my cat's wooden/rope/fabric perch and it was perfect. I suspect the back of a sofa or a sturdy chair would work just as well.

Please don't give up on this routine because the equipment is no longer available. It's terrific.

Low Max DVD (from the Hardcore series)
I am highly fit, currently training for the 2014 bikini/Figure show season. I train with weights at the gym, but I'll be honest...I HATE cardio. That said, I know I need it to help strip bodyfat and for general health and fitness. I'm also a mom of four, so I need to be able to get my cardio in at home.
I downloaded Low Max last night and had my first chance to go through it this morning. Yes, it is complicated the first time, even with previewing it; however, that's part of the charm, at least for me. I have plenty of her videos that I can just pop in and go...this one made me think. I was able to get my heartrate up during the intervals, but it should be higher when I am more familiar with the workout.
It is also nice to have a workout that doesn't have the same intensity as a HIIT workout or something of that nature. Sometimes, it's nice on the bones and joints and just mentally refreshing.
I'm sure Low Max will find its way into my rotation on a regular basis.

Cathe Intensity workout series: Pyramid Upper Body and Lower Body workouts
I am not advanced by any stretch of the imagination, so my weights are not heavy yet. But OH MY GOODNESS - this is a hard workout even with light weights.

I tend to have a strong lower body, but this workout left me shaking and sore for days. The upper body, my weaker part, did really well with the pyramid system - but I am also sore, sore sore.

Abs - ugh - I have no strength in the abs. I don't have a ball yet, so I did them on the floor. Barely . . . how does someone work up to doing these exercises????

Love this workout - thank you Cathe!

X10 DVD
I have many Cathe dvds but this has to be one of my favorites. The music is excellent and the workout has me catching my breath. Some of the higher intensity workouts I have to modify because I have bad knees but the low intensity ones are just perfect. Would love to have a bonus core workout but that's ok, I just put in another dvd when I'm done with this workout. Thanks Cathe, your awesome!!

Butts & Guts DVD
I purchased this video over a year ago and would rotate it in with some of Cathe's other workout video's. It is very challenging. When I started using this video I couldn't do the entire thing. Each time I would try to make it further. This year I am training for a very hilly half marathon (Blue Ridge Marathon in Roanoke, VA) and I am trying to work this video into my routine about every other day in preparation for the race.I can tell such a difference in my ability to conquer hills when running. I own a bunch of Cathe's video's and love all of them. If you want strong butts and guts you should order this video!

Firewalker Loops - 3 TPR bands L/M/H
These are way too thin and do not hold up well at all. It is easy to use them as intended only to find they rip easily and then split completely. Works better to tie my thicker bands and they have held up for years.
