How to Get in Shape for Your Wedding

I really enjoyed this video. I've had it for a while, but didn't end up trying it out until surgery reduced me to intermediate level (again). Naturally, it is nowhere near as intense as PowerMax onwards, but I still think this is a great workout! The choreography may be simple, but working out with Cathe is never boring. I also don't think that the wedding clips were a problem - there were nowhere near as many of them as some of the reviews led me to believe, and they are placed between segments so that they don't disrupt the workout. The toning section was surprisingly tough, and I am used to working out with heavy weights! Cathe pre-exhausts the muscle with pulsing reps, and then does full reps (up to 24 reps!), so this make it an endurance workout. There are only one or two exercises per muscle group, but that makes it manageable to exercise the whole body in one session (MIS this is not!). I think that I will be using the step portion quite a bit to get myself back to advanced level, and the toning portion is good for variety in my weight training routine.
