Cardio & Weights?

I like Cardio & Weights. It has moderate choreography which is easy to pick up but not so basic that it's boring. Music is good although you'll be hearing Buttercup over and over in your head all day. There is compound work for weights. I usually use around 8#. I think there's 5 step combos.

I love Cardio & Weights! I rarely do it as produced, but I love the cardio for a day I'm short on time/don't feel like working out. It's not super tough, but I find it super fun. And, at 35 minutes I can squeeze it in if I've overslept or something.
The weight work is fine, but nothing spectacular. There's light leg work. The ab section is superb, though, one of my all-time favorites. Walking soldier planks at the end are brutal. I think you'll like it.

C&W is what turned me onto Cathe so it has a special place. It used to kill me at first but now its my go to, need to feel good about myself circuit workout. It's not killer but it hits everything.

I really like the cardio-only portion of this work out. I use it when I do a long cardio workout.
Here is my favorite combo:
Warm-up from LIS (gotta love those hip-hops)
Finished Product from LIS (2xs for about 7 minutes of work)
3 combos and finished product from HIS (about 21 minutes)
All 4 combos from C&W (about 26 minutes)
This gives a nice variety of work coming in at 55+ minutes of stepping.
Plus the abs are a great workout for a short time investment.
Have fun.

I just did this one over the weekend and it was like visiting an old friend. I haven't done it for a while, but it sure was a lot of fun. You can make the weight work as hard or easy as you want. I did it as produced, but sometimes I add a set of push or pull ups before each weight segment to increase the intensity.

Everyone's enthusiasm for C&W is inspiring. I'm working at home today, but it's time for my exercise break. Looks like C&W is going to be the choice today. This will be my first try with C&W but I've watched it a couple of times. I'm psyched!

Cardio and Weights is one of my favorite circuit workouts. It does not wipe me out, but I still feel worked out.
And the ab portion rocks!
