Wishing you a quick recovery Tracy!
This morning I tried out Cross Fire Quick Fix Plus Core and enjoyed it. The cardio portion was fast paced and consisted of: 4 drill type exercises, repeat 4 drill type exercises, repeat (using the loop band around your ankles) 4 drill type exercises, repeat Then you do a cool down and active stretch before going to the ground to do abs/core work. It was basic stuff like crab touches, bicycles, plank moves, crunches, situps, etc. and the final move was superman alternated with swimmer in a face down position on the floor. A final couple of stretches and it was done! I tried to sub lower impact moves for some of the high impact stuff and still sweated pretty good. I like this one for a quick cardio workout when I'm short on time. Kathy

Yesterday I did Shredded Upper Body with Ball
The workout was 49 minutes and the stability ball was used for most of the exercises. There are multiple exercises for each body part and each of the exercises are repeat three times with a rep pattern of 12,10, 8. The grouping of the exercises is as follows: Shoulder/ Biceps/Back Back/triceps/ chest Core This is among my favorite upper body workouts. I really liked the selection of exercises, the sequencing of the exercises and the different rep patterns employed. This is a versatile workout because you can either use moderate or heavy weight. Since I wanted to go heavier than the stability would allow, for some of the exercises I used my bench rather than the ball. I liked the way Cathe consistently tied in the various body parts- ex- pullovers work back, triceps, chest, or sitting flies work back upper delts, etc. The various angles of exercises were also nicely employed, - ex- lateral shoulder, front shoulders rear delts, or lower back, mid back, upper back. Much of the music also had a latin flare! What can I say, IMHO there is everything to like about this upper body workout. |

Okay, I'm a little late at looking at this thread, but can you view Cathe Live with a Roku? My computer (laptop) is upstairs, & there's no room to workout up there, I could bring it downstairs, but I prefer the bigger tv to see, as my eyesight isn't that good even with corrective lenses.
