Boot Camp--I don't understand what the big deal is

Cathe's gloves are not weighted. But I use 1 lb weighted gloves for the combo sections, not the entire workout. But as with weighted gloves, know what you are doing because you can injure your shoulder FO SURE....

For me, I like this workout because it kind of shakes things up from my regular workout routine. Though I don't rotate it in routinely, I like to add it when I feel I need a real change of pace. It's a little bit of everything!

>Cathe's gloves are not weighted.

They aren't even gloves: they are black hand wraps taped with black tape (unless she's doing something different in Kick Max, which I quickly got rid of).
 
I have to agree with most people, I don't think its overly hard either.Ilove the workout but when I do it I add on 5-10 min on my treadmill after each aerobic part.This makes me feel like I have worked harder and I also got a good cardio workout in

Hi DukeChic, I love Cathe's bootcamp. I think a person can make it as hard as they want. I love it and I love HSTA another great one.
Have a good day

I agree with the poster who said you can make it as hard or easy as you want. I find this one keeps my heartrate up the whole time. I think that this was designed to be an endurance workout. The cycle I find most challenging is the squat thrusts (terminators). No one here can tell me that those are easy. If they are, you are cheating or not doing them right. They get me every time! The first couple times I did this it was fatiguing, but not so now. But Imax 3 has gotten less difficult every time I do it too.
