CrossFire DVD
Completed the Crossfire Extreme premix today and had a blast! It's very challenging but you are having fun the whole time :) Keep an extra towel handy, even with the thermostat turned down to 70 Degrees I was drenched! The Tabata drills are awesome! Cathe never disappoints. The music is great too! If you enjoyed Afterburn, Cardio Core Circuit, or Intensity, you will LOVE this one!

CrossFire DVD
Love the bright blue outfits, the background nature scene & the fact that each section tells you what equipment you'll need. The DVD cover gives a break down of each section & it's length. So helpful! The warm up is thorough & unique. The next 2 sections- CrossFire Fitness Blast & Firewalker Tabata are tough but are over before I got the chance to complain! The Circuit Blast is challenging but do-able. Weights are used for about 4-6 exercises but are mainly to increase the cardio intensity, not muscle building so feel free to insert this workout before/after a weight lifting day. Then comes the Plyo Tabata. Pay attention because they start right into the next blast after a 10 second rest! The core section has some unique moves. Hint- make sure you use hexagonal weights on the weighted planks. If your weights are round at the end, I don't think it would be safe. Also, I wore long running tights to make the firewalker bands more comfortable around my lower legs. Great sweaty fun!

Full 90 day strength trainingExercise Program: Full Body Exercise Routine & Total Body Workouts with STS and Cathe
Ijust started these Dvds, and so far they are the say workout on a different disc, just telling you to go up in weight a little. So to me im seeing a huge waste of money. It could have been less dvds with just the book as info saying go up in weight each time you do the workout. Saving everyone some money.

Firewalker Loops - 3 TPR bands L/M/H
I just got this product.
This is what is written on the outside of the box:
"WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm."
It does not specify which chemical is in the product. I washed my hands and then began inspecting the box warnings. The fire-walking loops by Cathe and the step at home both have this warning.
I began researching and found the following chemicals listed to cause cancer according to Proposition 65 by California state:

Step @ Home
I just got this step and find that it has a warning label on it. Does Cathe knows that her products are labeled as harmful to people?
"WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm."
It does not specify which chemical is in the product. However, it was smelling like gasoline! I thought to myself and I began to clean it with paper towel and water. It came out black and dirty. I washed my hands and then began inspecting the box warnings. The fire-walking loops by Cathe also had the same warning sign on the loops.

Cathlete 100% Cotton Tea
I read on the forums that the shirts run small, so even though I usually like my shirts snug, I ordered a size larger than usual. I am 5'4", 130lbs, medium bust, and the medium fits perfectly. It is longer and more shapely than it appears in the online pictures. It reaches to the middle of my bottom so there's no chance of an exposed belly if I lift my hands overhead. The sides curve in to flatter the waist. The sleeves are a bit snug over my large built-by-Cathe biceps, but they do not pinch or look odd. They loosen up after wearing the shirt for a while. I have the maroon and it is a beautiful deep brick red.

Boot Camp + Muscle Endurance DVD (from the Intensity Series)
I've been loving these workouts. With the boot camp workout I feel I get a great workout, but I'm not worn out afterwards. I believe easier than hardcore extreme if you're comparing intensity, but the core work, to me, is well worth doing this workout over and over. Between the kickbox kicks and the core, I've had great results in tummy, back and hip area. With the weight segments, I'll rewind to do extra squats/back/biceps just to give myself an extra push.
With muscle endurance I've been doing the lower body premix mostly but first I do athletic training lower body and then muscle endurance lower body. Awesome workout. Within 7 to 8 eight hours, it'll be a little harder to walk around. I just did the upper body premix this week, and I felt that I got a great upper body workout.

Firewalker Loops - 3 TPR bands L/M/H
First of all I must say I love everything about Cathe's workouts and I own many of them. I look forward to working out with her 6 nights a week. The firewalker bands sure beat tying a long band in a knot around your ankles. When the green one got a little easier for me I took out the blue one for more of a challenge (which it was) and have been using it for a few weeks. However tonight during Athletic Training workout it busted on me. I was shocked. I'm truly not that strong. I will be ordering another package of loops as I need the blue one, but was disappointed it broke so early on me.

Turbo Barre DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
OMG! This one is tough !!! Easy to follow moves but your muscles (thighs and buttocks particularly) will be exhausted and sore... and the abdominals are hard. Wow!! This is an amazing workout. Thank you Cathe and please do another dvd using the barre, it is great and best of all , different.

Cathe Friedrich's Low Impact Step + Total Body Sculpting DVD
In November 2011 I started out with this dvd and low impact step and right away started noticing the weight dropping without dieting. Diet is a 4-letter word to me. I'll try to portion control instead.
I'm 47, 5/5 and was 135. By January, 127. Now I'm yo-yoing between 123 -125. Basically for my body, the step has been the perfect exercise routine to get me back into shape, with also adding circuit training. End of December I added Butts and Gutts and Athetlic training, and now have added several other dvds to my collection.
I had been doing Insanity for about 6 months and loved being able to accomplish it, but I only lost a few pounds but gained tremendous endurance, so that's when I decided to try something different and I'm hooked on Cathe. Cathe's workouts have changed my body so much.

Cross Train Xpress DVD
I just received this workout last month and I love it, especially if I'm short on time and want a work out incorporating weight training, which I'm starting to focus more on. I'm 47, 124 pounds, was 135 in November when starting out with Cathe. I love all the ab work and leaner legs, and kickbox - Great. I feel this kickbox routine really works my core, which has been a concern of mine.
I feel the aerobic section is just enough to work up a sweat and combining the weight routine, I feel it's a well-rounded workout that I'll be able to really tone and define my muscles, but it doesn't leave me feeling exhausted.
I've been working hard on the behind, so I've been rotating leaner legs with Butts & Gutts - Favorite - I'm drenched afterwards -
Athletic training lower body with either muscle endurance lower body or STS total body lower body. With doing this rotating, my muscles continually hurt in places I'm not used to...I LOVE it!

Cathe low impact Total Body Training Tri-Sets workout DVD
I like this dvd the most and use it quite often.The only excersise I can't do is standing on one leg and alternate putting the weight down. I found after doing that excersise for a month it put huge strain and pain in my knees. I went to the doct. and she told me to not do that excersise anymore. Now I just ommit that one and my knees are fine now. Must be my age, I'm 40 now!!I gave the review one less star because I thought the music was awful. I like more upbeat dance music to work out to, not the guitar rock music.

Athletic Step DVD
This video is perfect when you want a shorter, yet intense work-out--it's about 45 minutes including stretches. Cathe incorporates higher-intensity moves in "shorter" step segments. I found the choreography fairly easy to follow, interesting and fun. Cathe's cueing is great, as usual, but she's quick to build the combo too. It's the perfect balance of instruction and actual exercise. I like to do this video first, then do the STS abs segment.

AfterBurn DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
This was an extremely challenging workout, I was winded before I completed the first circuit, but it does exactly what it promises, it burns!!! I loved it and hated it but felt so good after it was over. The dragging pushups were difficult but the burpee pushups I loved! I could feel my muscles for days after. Definitely worth the money, great challenge, great workout!

AfterBurn DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
I am 3/4 of the way through and very tired after stopping twice already. Just getting back into running again and this workout was a killer. Well I will stop stalling now and get back to finishing the routine. maybe this one will get easier as I try it out more.

Cathe low impact Total Body Training Tri-Sets workout DVD
This is my new favorite strength training workout (and I love just about all of them). I love all the exercises in this workout, every single one, and I love the format and concept - it's unique. My muscles were shaking! There is a fantastic modification for one of the exercises if you can't do dive-bomber pushups. Love this workout! Thank you Cathe!
