I love warmups and cooldowns too!
I love warmups and stretches...
In fact, I will put in a totally different dvd just to get a better warmup before I work out. My favorite KCM is Your Best Body warmup I love Cathe warmups too: To the Max Powerhour..just love this one that just uses the barbell..love the music too. Athletic Step Travel Fit Imax 2 Cardio and Weights 4 Day split Kickboxing, HI Step, LI Step I love her Supersets and Push Pull warmups Gym Style warmups..I always use these! I love the use of the Stability ball in Butts and Guts. High Step Challenge("Let's Groove tonight...") Muscle max I too wish I could make a string of Cathe step warmups. That would make a great low impact step workout Cooldown/stretches: LOVE High Reps end stretch Travel Fit Muscle Endurance Gym Styles Bodymax 2 Muscle Max HiiT last HiiT Stretch has nice music Lower Body Blast has nice classical music with a beat. i also like Firm warmup and cooldowns Wave Rock it off warmup Express Cardio warmup and cooldown Jiggle Free Arms warmup Jiggle free Abs warmup Firm Express Turbo Charge workouts with Alison Kimberly Spreen's cooldown in Absolute Kickboxing is wonderful

I like the warm up and first section of Cathe's Travel Fit. The warm up is not really anything special, but right afterwards she does back work using a long dynaband. This is the part I especially like, and I always do it before a I do a weighted back workout. It doesn't take long and gives the back muscles a quick wake up call. I've used this warm up and back section more times than I can count.

I use Cathe's Drill Max warm up before pretty much every strength workout I do, for splits as well as total body days. I love that it's nice and long, coming it at about 10 minutes, and warms up the entire body nicely, particularly the shoulders; also love the music and enjoy the "music louder" option. I've only ever used the entire Drill Max workout once - too high impact for me - but use the warmup all the time and for some reason never ever get sick of it.
The other warmup I love is the one on Cathe's Low Intensity Step in the 4DS series - just plain fun! |

I love the warmups on Classical Stretch but usually use www.MUVE.com or youtube clips for warmups. Music gets me muving more than anything else.

I've been addicted to Ballet Body's stretch since I got it. It has hip openers and a good side stretch. She form cues and it's about 13 minutes. Basically I like hip openers for my stretch since that's where I'm tightest. Rodney Yee's Yoga for Energy Reflection is a 10 minute mostly hip centered practice which doesn't make it back to my shelves and sits by the TV. Also like the flexibility segments from 10 MS Pilates series - any with Lara Hudson. |
