Cross Train Express: Power Circuit

Cathe Friedrich
Year Released: 2000

Categories: Circuit Training (cardio and weights)


Okay, this will be brief since everyone else described the workout format. I am use to the Firm workout and purchased Cathe's tapes in the past but felt intimidated by the advanced intensity and complicated steps of her workouts, plus the gym style of her exercises did not appeal to me. I was use to The Firm workout program with the Stepford Wives personalities of the instructors. I still love The Firm but I am falling in love with Cathe due to the CTX series.

I just finished doing this Power Circuit workout for the first time and felt challanged like no other. I decided not to fear Cathe and her take no prisoners attitude. She has such a fresh and upbeat personality, that you don't feel you're taking cues from a robot. I actually enjoyed the complicated step moves and kickbox section was great. The music is awesome and Cathe, as always, is with you every step of the way, giving you great form tips and cueing.

The back segment is an absolute killer. The planks section is excellent but if you're new to this type of exercise start off slow. I was dripping with sweat galore from every part of my body. This worout is definitely a keeper, I know I will see the results soon from this awesome workout. Way to go Cathe! A+

P.S. I did say I was going to brief, didn't I? Oh well, like Cathe said slyly, "I lied."
