4DS premixe circuits

[nikkithin]

I'm not a fan of boot camp on the 4DS but want love doing circuits. There aren't any other circuits on the 4DS dvd, are there? I love BM2 circuits - now THAT boot camp is awesome.
Is it just me, or are the premixes lame on 4DS...please tell me I'm missing something!

I think you're definitely missing something.
There is a Low Impact circuit and a High Impact circuit on the other disk.
Check those out instead!

There is a 4DS Boot Camp upper body circuit and a 4DS Boot Camp lower body circuit workout. And I agree with the other poster - the 4DS LIS circuit premix and 4DS HIS circuit premix are both really fun workouts!!

I love 4DS!!

Everytime I read something negative about 4 day split my jaw drops. I guess everyone is different but I just LOVE it. I find myself coming back to this all the time. The kickbox is sooo much fun I never get bored of it. The low and high step I understand may be a little to choregoraphically harder but once you get it, . . it is a whole lot of fun. I love the varitey of this series. I would probably suggest Drill Max and Low Impact Circut if you really like the Circut interval style training both are fun, . . . and Drill Max is tough. I also like to split my workouts throughout the day so having a 30 minute option is nice for me.

I have to agree with Nikkithin, I thought the 4DS was real lame. I had heard so many good reviews and I was really disappointed. I was expecting something with more intensity like drill max. The bootcamp/kickbox were a joke. I barely broke a sweat and I did the double cardio.

Oh, one premix shows LIC, which I thought was a low intensity circuit workout, but it was a step routine instead. This was the first time I have been really disappointed in one of Cathe's DVD's

I agree that the Bootcamp in 4DS is not that great. I am glad that I got this series though because I love all of the weight work. I tend to do my own cardio, and then use the weight workouts.

That's what I'll do also. I've heard the total body is good, so I'm gonna try that today.

My first impression of four day split was that it was just okay. I think that this workout has to grow on you. After using it several times and discovering the versatility of 4DS, it is now one of my favorites. You can do a 30 min or 60 min cardio workout. I enjoy doing HIS /LIS combined premix. I also like the circuits on 4DS.

If you like circuits and 4 DS is not for you, try the Bootcamp on the Boot camp and Muscle endurance DVD.

After doing the total body workout yesterday, I was impressed with the weight portion, but am still not happy with the cardio but I can do cardio from another DVD or run on my TM.

Holy crap. Well, good for you, I guess. These two workouts kick my arse.

It does not say LIC--it says LIS--which stands for Lower Intensity Step. LIC is Low Impact Circuit from Cathe's 2006 series. There is a LIS circuit workout premix though--you might want to look again.

Different strokes for different folks, I guess. I thought this one of of Cathe's best series ever.
