Pure Strength Vol. 2: Chest, Shoulders, Triceps

Cathe Friedrich
Year Released: 1999

Categories: Upper Body Strength


Pure Strength Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps is a complete super-advanced workout packed with tons of variety. Cathe includes drops sets and differnet exercises from those used in Body Max and MIS. The chest section starts with decline pushups (pushups with your feet on your a bench). These are really intense. Then comes bench presses. Cathe even includes a variation on an incline to hit the upper chest. At the end of this segment, cathe includes a superset where she alternates flys with bench presses. I had gone heavy in this section to try to challenge myself, but by this part i had to stop because i was completely fatigued. The next part is shoulders. This section is really intense. I did this workout 3 hours ago and i can still feel my shoulders shaking when i lift them. This section is so intense that even the invincible cathe uses a 5 lb dumbell for some exercises. The last section is triceps. My this point I was tried and my triceps were already fatigued from the other two segments. At some points during this section my chest shoulders, and triceps were shaking faster than i have ever seen them. Cathe ends this section with 2 sets of tricep dips. Overall, i give this tape an A++. It's really intense and includes a large variety of exercise.

Instructor Comments:
Cathe is in spectacular shape. I can't believe she does this workout with a 45lb barrbell. She really did a great job in creating a very intense workout.
