Cathe Friedrich's Kick Max Workout and Exercise DVD
I love this workout! It's a great way to break up your workouts. I like this kind of cardio, which I alternate with other Cathe videos, like Muscle Endurance.

Intensity DVD
I just received this one in the mail. I have many of Cathe's DVD's and could barely make it through this one. It's intense but the moves are not difficult. My heart rate was consistently high. This is a must have. Must must must.....

2-in-1 Power Medicine Ball and Kettlebell - 8 Lbs
This is a nice medicine ball. I love that it has a nice grip to it. It won't slip out of sweaty hands.

4 Day Split DVD Series
I've had this set for a while. While I like the main workouts, I absolutely love the hour-long upper body premix on disc 1. It is a very thorough weights workout that really exhausts each muscle group with heavy weights in just over an hour with just the right pace. Fantastic workout. There are many more premixes to choose from of various lengths which provide the feel of getting many new workouts even if you're familiar with the main workouts. A must-have!

Muscle Max DVD (from the Hardcore series)
Having Fibromyalgia, I get muscle cramps and extreme fatigue at any given time. It has been since 2008 that I have done this DVD, but tried it again today. Even with my condition, I was able to get a user-friendly workout to suite my level & needs. I have to say the Leg exercises in this workout fried me. I was only able to use about half of waht Cathe uses, but it gives me incentive to use this more so that I can increase my ability. You can modify to use dumbbells only. Unlike her newer strength workouts, she does tell you what she's lifting so you can gage your weights. This is a DVD that's more than worth the price thanks to the premixes & as always perfect cueing and the option to always increase your weights. A wide variety of dumbbells, a Can-Do attitude, body band, and step/bench are all you need to get the best strength workout of your life! I'm glad I dusted it off and already feel DOMS throughout just a few hours after using it. I also recommend her Gym Styles Split Series!

Intensity DVD
It took me awhile to like this workout, although I see that alot of people find it super fun. The first 3-4 times I didn't feel the fun factor like I do with Athletic Step, one of my personal favorites. I think part of it is because the moves are fairly standard and the other is because the music is just ok. I would love more current music. A Pink Floyd remix just doesn't get my juices flowing.
I do like the fact that she only stays with the moves a short time and then goes on to something else. I presume that's why she stays with the basics. If you are not in the mood for thinking about choreography, but want an intense workout, this is it. The premixes are also great. As someone with bad knees, I LOVE the low HiiT and I could do a whole DVD of that.
Overall, a varied, intense cardio workout, that is well cued and as always with Cathe, she really motivates you. (I find her "boom" during the hip flexor repeaters especially cute.)

Cathe Friedrich's Stretch Max workout DVD
This is a very well rounded stretch routine and an essential part of any workout regime. Doing this video helps my muscles not feel as tight from my workouts (repair faster!) and it really helps work out those knots in my back from stress! I usually get bored easily from stretch and/or yoga videos, but not with this one... which is amazing. I stalled for a long time buying this and I shouldn't have. Oh well, I have it now!
My only gripes are the music and I wish some of the stretches were held a wee bit longer. No big deal, I don't mind hitting the pause button when I know I've hit a knot/muscle that needs a bit more time. Thanks, Cathe!

Cathe Circuit Max and Cardio Kicks Workout Exercise DVD[removed]void(0);
Just got this one yesterday and we did it this morning. Very good. I love that it has the floor work and uses the step. Weight work was just enough. MOved fast, but I never felt winded. Must remember to double knot your laces for this one and have your OJ before you start!

Imax 2 + Cardio & Weights DVD (from the Intensity Series)
I love the Imax 2 series and the Step Blast dvd!! I have never found another aerobic activity that is as fun and challenging as Cathe's step programs. I have enjoyed your dvd's being aired on fit tv and look forward to purchasing your dvds.

STS Total Body DVD
How cow! This DVD is my first experience with the STS series. I'm in love (and pain!)!
I've always used Muscle Max as my go-to total body weight workout. This is replacing it for sure!
I just did the 51min premix, and was sore before I even went upstairs to shower! I've never experienced that before! Here I am 2 days later and still have serious DOMS. Highly recommend this one to anyone that needs to kick up their weight routine!
Cathe has outdone herself again!

Athletic Step DVD
of all my Cathe DVDs this is the one I avoid doing. Although it is short, it seems to go on forever, lots of repitition and lots of moves I don't enjoy. The music is also sub-par. But I do love my other DVDs!

Cathe Basic Step + Body Fusion step aerobic Workout DVD
After having my son and gaining 50 pounds, using this DVD 3-5 times a week helped me lose all of my baby weight in a few short months. Very simple but effective. Doesn't take longer than 30 minutes. Wasn't hard on my body at all, which was important after having a C-Section. Love this DVD!!

STS Push Pull Tower
The tower works as needed, but the one I received was lacking in quality. The foam on the bar was ripped and the replacement came without the spring to hold it onto the tower. Instead of contacting customer service again and waiting for the replacement I took the spring from the original on with the rip in the foam and put it on the new one. It works alright, but I'm still very disappointed in the quality. I have to continually fix it by pushing the black plastic things that surround the pole back into place even though it's not being put up and down a lot. It does get the job done, but I expected better quality.

STS Push Pull Tower
I have set a fitness goal for myself of doing a real pull up, however I could not even do one and was having a VERY hard time trying to "work up" to it. I am now actually making progress towards this goal by using this push pull tower. Being able to start by doing pull ups in a supine position, makes all the difference. That was still very hard for me at first, but I am seeing results and getting stronger. I can now do 8 supine pull ups with decent form. When I started I could not do one with decent form! I am thrilled at my progress with this tower and recommend it to anyone who may be in the same situation, wanting to do pull ups, but can't do even one from a hanging position, and also does not want to join a gym only to use the assisted pull up machines.

STS Total Body DVD
I do believe this is my new favorite total body strength workout! Really incredible... I love the combination of exercises Cathe selected, and the Tri-sets really burn you out!! PLUS, I love the rep pattern, 16 reps for the first set and 12 reps for the second. It is fast paced and truly keeps you moving and sweating! If you are looking for a total body workout you MUST try this.

Slow & Heavy Series 3 Workout Set DVD
Excellent and underrated! I love the slow pace of this workout. It helps me focus on my form. With some other strength training dvd's, the transition between each exercise is very fast. This workout slows the process down and breaks me out of my weight bearing plateau. Thanks, Cathe!

Cathe Body Blast Series Series Step, Jump & Pump + Step Blast workout DVDs
I ahve had this DVD for a year or so- and somehow had not done Step Blast until today... and I am SO GLAD I DID! This is my favorite step video of not only Cathe's , but anyone! The steps are a little tricky, but learnable. The music is awesome! And this one gets your heart rate up for sure! The challange at the end really torches it! The 54 minutes flew by! Bravo Bravo Bravo! Oh- and Step, Jump and Pump is awesome too! This DVD is a winner!

Athletic Step DVD
Combining this workout with STS strength is the best way to use this workout. I found the workout challenging but attainable. There are many athletic moves like numerous jumping jacks, fast feet, and jumping moving forward. It will take more than once to feel comfortable with it. It's on "old-school" Cathe like Hardcore or Body Blast series.
