Dec 2011 Rotation

[Cathe Friedrich]

Hi Everyone! I know this is a huge ongoing month of festivities but lets also keep our health a high priority on our "to do" list.


This month we are shocking our systems by mixing high impact with low impact workouts and also combining muscular strength with muscular endurance workouts. I have factored in additional stretching in case your body feels especially tight from the “after shock”. Expect to enhance your metabolism, burn fat, calories, improve flexibility and build better bone density! Now if you can do all that great, but if you can do it through the busy month of December, even better! Holiday Self Help: For every holiday indulgence, drink two extra glasses of water, do 25 push ups and 50 crunches (that ought to keep your indulgences in check, wink).


So if you're ready, let's take on our last rotation of 2011 with everything we've got!

I have everything except the Imax's. What can I use to substitute for them? I don't know how to categorize them.

Wow!! Another great rotation, Cathe. Thanks for posting it and putting it together for us..

Hiho (Love that, btw), I think you could use the High Intensity workouts in place of an IMAX workout and do fine. Maybe Cathe will pop in here and give you some other suggestions.

Hope that helps,

Hi Cathe,

I love this rotation and put it in my calendar in the workout blender. It looks energizing and stress relieving at the same time. Thanks!

I am new to Cathe and do not have all of her video's (I am working up to it though!). I have her entire LIS, but I am missing a few others in this rotation (Imax1 & 3, kickmax, pyramid upper and lower). How would I know what to substitute these with? I would really like to participate in Cathe's rotations but I am not able to invest in her ENTIRE collection right now. Any suggestions?

Thank you!!!

Thanks Cathe--this rotation looks great. I did your November rotation that had workouts only from the new low impact series and have seen great results. Can't wait to start this one on Monday!
