Turbo Barre DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
I downloaded this DVD because I wanted a low impact but challenging workout, and this turned out to be more than I expected! I absolutely love this DVD, it's challenging for me but doable even for a beginner. I was exhausted when done and felt I got the best workout. Highly recommend this for anyone! Love, love, love this DVD!!!!!

12lb -20 LB. Adjustable MaX-Vest
I had the same problem with the vest falling apart at the seams and the sand coming out. I love this vest and appreciate that it isn't overly bulky for my small 5' stature but I can no longer use it. I'd like to exchange for another but no longer have the receipt. Not sure how I'll complete STS again without this accessory. Please make improvements and I'd consider giving a new one a chance.

AfterBurn DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
I've purhcaed a couple of Cathe's new Low Impact Series DVDs, but this was my first and all I can saw is....WOW, it is TOUGH! It took me several times to get through it and I couldn't do the burpees AT ALL at first, but after doing it more and more, I'm finding I am able to do all of them! This DVD is a killer if you're looking to get out of a workout rut like I was! It will have you dripping and sore the next day....in a good way! If the rest in this series are this good, I will definitely be purchasing more, if not ALL of them!

Athletic Training DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
I've just recently "discovered" Cathe's workouts as I had been looking to get out of my "rut" from my old DVDs that I was getting bored with and seeing few results from. This DVD did that and then some! I LOVE IT! I am just dripping with sweat by the end and feel soooo accomplished when I make it all the way through! I cannot recommend this one highly enough!

Cathe low impact Slide & Glide workout DVD
This is my 3rd DVD I've purchased in the Low Impact Series and I wasn't sure I'd like it at first b/c the first of Cathe's workouts I tried with the discs (I actually used furniture sliders I already had), was a little "weird" at first, but the more I used them the more I liked them. They stretch and work the muscles in your legs soooo much more than if you didn't use them and I definitely felt it the next day! Next, I'm going to try the "double trouble" premix section and see if I can get through all of it, not so sure I'll be able to at first! And next, I'm going to purchase Turbo Barre and see how that works! I'm slowly building up a collection of Cathe's DVDs and I love every one of them so far! I actually look forward to working out now where as I was getting soooo bored with my old DVDS!

Gym Style Chest & Triceps DVD (from the Hardcore series)
This is a tough workout - I count 72 pushups in the sequence :) You will be happy with working your way towards it, really! Love the tricep workout in this - one of Cathe's best. Had serious DOMS for two days now!!

Cathe Friedrich's Gym Style Legs workout and exercise DVD
This workout is great - it gives you all the squats, lunges (friendly) and deadlifts you want. Great calf workout, then the floorwork is killer, but you KNOW it's going to be effective - so keep squeezing those thighs, glutes and hamstrings! Don't hesitate to buy this and the other GS workouts.

Cathe low impact Cardio SuperSets workout exercise DVD
I love this workout. It's quick and fun. There is no dread, the time flies and I just cannot stop reaching for it. It's my most used Cathe DVD. It has great premixes and a bonus athletic step that last 26 minutes before cooling down. Today I did just the step premix. You will love it. I also love Athletic Training, Afterburn, Slide and Glide and the lower body from Trisets - oh and Turbobarre - that's a fantastic workout. Great premixes on them all.

Turbo Barre DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
I hope Cathe makes more of these! I've been doing Cathe since 1997 and I'm an advanced exerciser. I do the same weight Cathe does in her workouts, so I can lift a lot! But this workout will make you feel it (mostly in the lower body) like no weight workout! This dvd is such a compliment to heavy weight workouts. You're using your muscles differently and it's tough! I've been doing Callanetics, Barre workouts, Lotte Berk, etc... and this is just a more "Cathe" version of those - which I love!!

Cathe low impact Cardio SuperSets workout exercise DVD
I love this workout because it combines good cardio sets and the use of weights. I was plugging along and as soon as I started to think that it wasn't too difficult the sweat factor and breath factor kicked in hard. I definitely did not have a problem with the music. FYI, it is not as difficult as Afterburn or Athletic training but it is a good, solid workout.

Step Moves DVD
This workout is great for intermediate to advanced Catheletes. As an intermediate stepper, it offered me a challenging workout. The choreography is advanced, but learnable and easy to modify into low impact. My fitness level has improved, and I still work up a sweat. I've added a riser, but the cardio is not as challenging. I use Step Moves now as a break in between days I do more intense 70-90 minute workouts. If you like "dancy" routines, this one is for you. The intensity is equivalent to low impact circuit (step premix) and low max (all step premix). It is more difficult than basic step and low impact step, but not as difficult as rhythmic step and body max 2 or any of the new LIS DVDs.

Athletic Training DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
I never used to be a fan of cardio and weights in one workout, but I have less time these days and with a DVD like Athletic Training, I don't feel shortchanged in any area.
The step moves are basic so you can concentrate on working hard. The rest of the workout on the floor also has basic moves, but because you're combining several moves at once, it requires concentration and balance which also keeps the mind occupied, which I love. I find the discs work well as soon as you get the hang of them.
The music is fine, I don't love it. I'm not a fan of the music on any of the new DVD's, but the workouts are so good, it's not a deal breaker for me.
Some of the moves tweak my wrists, so I have to modify those. I found that to be the case on several of the new Low Impact DVD's.

Turbo Barre DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
It took me 6 weeks of doing Turbo Barre once per week before I could do it all without pausing. Now I don't need to break, but it is still challenging. I see a real improvement in my legs, more than with Cathe's other lower body targeted workouts. Granted, everyone is different and what works for one, may not work for others, but this one is definitely effective for me.
I'm not a fan of the short weight section at the beginning of the workout. It doesn't seem like it fits with the rest of the program and it's not enough to make a dent in cardio or strength in my opinion.
I find myself looking forward to doing this DVD. I also really love being barefoot! It's easy to pull out a chair and a looped band and get cranking.

High Step Challenge DVD (from the Hardcore series)
I love this workout as I found myself revisiting it every week...It is challenging. The pace is high as per description.As I have been doing for a while, I decided to go high on the weight I am lifting and this makes it even more challenging as there is litterally no time to rest therefore more calorie burnt! This workout has helped me break a plateau.The music is excellent,the one played during barbell curl does keep me going without paying attention to the burn! I would highly recommend this workout to anyone willing to combine cardio and endurance.

Cycle Max DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
I have every DVD Cathe's ever made and am a huge Cathelete, however I don't really like Cyclemax. A few reasons: the music doesn't motivate me and I find it kind of boring, and there is so much standing out of the saddle that it is really unusual for a spinning workout (I have done many live classes, in multiple gyms) and because of that I cannot adapt it to my LifeCycle very well. It would help if Cathe gave some tips about what to do when you can't stand up like they do in the video. I paid a small fortune for the LifeCycle and will not be buying a spinner on top of it. Other than that, it's ok, but after doing this video 3 times I will probably not be doing it again, honestly.

Low Impact Challenge DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
This is a fun workout and is definitely a WORKout. I am a non-dancy-type step fan and while this workout was fairly easy to follow I did get a little lost a couple times - but it won't take too many times to get it and I still worked up a sweat, and it was a lot of fun! I agree that the music wasn't as interesting as it normally is (hence the 4 stars instead of 5) but I still loved the workout and am looking forward to doing the bonus premixes when I have more time.

4 Day Split DVD Series
I love this set! I just purchased it during the pre-Christmas sale and I am so glad I did. What an excellent addition to my collection. This is fast becoming my go-to set of discs. It covers everything. I feel like I got a fantastic WO in around 60 minutes per workout and when I do all four in a week I feel amazing. Definitely among of my favorites!

AfterBurn DVD (from the Low Impact Series)
This earns it's name! Pros: I love moves that combine cardio with weights. I was sore in places I never get sore - so I KNOW it's a good addition to my collection. Lots of new moves here! MUCH use of the gliders....which leads to...Cons: Some of the glider moves are awkward for me - especially jumping jacks on them, doesn't feel safe (for me). This is a TOUGH workout - the mountin climbers & spiderman moves on the floor will take getting used to. This is a GREAT workout - but I don't love it as a 'fun' one. Knocked off one star for the music, like the others in this series, it's awful.
