Power Hour

Cathe Friedrich
Year Released: 2002

Categories: Total Body Workouts


I was so excited about this workout, since I thought it would be a fun alternative to MIS or perhaps a better version of Body Pump. However, I've never really liked this workout. I enjoyed a few parts like the shoulders and abs, but some of the other body parts felt tortuous to me, like the lunges or bicep sections. There are a lot of variations in tempos during this workout, but sometimes you end up doing the same exercise for a pretty long time, and I just found it boring.

Now that Muscle Endurance has been released, and I have access to the Pyramid Total Body premix, I feel like I can rid of this workout, because those are so much more fun to me.

It is hard for me to believe that I am ready to get rid of a Cathe strength training DVD (this comes with MIS and Body Max) because Cathe strength is what I use most often. But since I enjoy her other series so much more and she is continuing to release new strength training workouts, and I am letting this one go.
