Hi all! I’m a pretty infrequent poster, but frequent lurker I have a quick question for all you Cathletes who are great at making rotations. I’m searching for a rotation that focuses on lower body and core without neglecting upper body. I’m really looking to strengthen and shrink my lower half and core, but I want to keep the gains I’ve made with upper body. I saw the Rock Bottoms rotation for Feb 2011, but I’m looking for something a little more intermediate Does anyone have an intermediate Rock Bottoms style rotation? I have most of Cathe's workouts, with the exception of the LIS series, Crossfire, and To The Max. Would also prefer under an hour if possible. Thanks so much!
Intermediate "Rock Bottoms" rotation?

All the best,

All the best,
Sorry I haven't had the time to come back on here and thank you for posting this. Thank you so much! I am in the second week of this rotation, and I'm really liking it. I have most of these workouts, but they are either virgins or it's been awhile since I've used them. I already feel like my quads are tighter from using them. Funny enough, even with all the plyo my knees don't feel as bad when I'm doing the workouts. I am taking it more lower impact in some instances, but before I've had to cut out impact completely. It feels good to jump again!
NckFit, again thanks for posting this rotation! I am now about two days from finishing this rotation, and my results have been amazing! I have waaayy less cellulite on my legs (which I wasn't even looking to change so that's a bonus), my calves have a little more definition, and my thighs are rock hard 
My stomach is not as flat as I'd like, but my lower half is really coming along great. Oh, and I lost 4 pounds, which I wasn't trying to lose, and my upper body has gotten a bit more definition. I did make one small change to my diet, but I really think that the workouts did it for me, as I've made this type of diet change before but without these great results.
Like I mentioned before, no aching knees so I'm loving that. I do have some serious DOMS so I skipped one workout day. But I completed all the other ones. So glad I started this rotation. Off to find more Cathe rotations. Thanks for getting me back on track!

Lower body results
Thanks Bubbles76 for coming back on this thread.
I am really glad you gained result from this rotation. I have 10 days left from the original Rock bottom and I will be done. I have gained results including cellulite reduction I did'nt actually think before embarking on the rotation I could probably reduce it.
I have to confess just for the cellulite reduction as a reason, I would do it again!It is just unbelievable. I honestly got more than I bargained for
Well done on your 4 pounds weight loss, that was the icing on the cake
Hmm I bet you will be revisiting this rotation in very near future
Take care,

Wow. I have my eye on this rotation after I finish my 30 day X-train rotation: I have combined the 30 day cardio/strength rotation with the 30 day undulating plus ride rotation (one week, I do 30 day cardio/strength, the next week I do the workouts on the undulating rotation, then switch back to another week of the 30 day cardio/strength, etc.. Combined the two because a) I get bored easily so it's almost impossible for me to stick to a rotation and b) I wanted to keep my body guessing and want to continue to lose weight by doing an undulating approach but wanted more cardio and the cardio/strength rotation has cardio almost every day.
Most of my weight is in my lower body so I'm hoping to lose inches/fat/cellulite. My lower body is so stubborn!!

That is what I feel about my lower body!! Stubborn body part require no nonsense attitude, mindset and challenging rotation. That is the only way to gain result. Plus clean nutrition of course. I need to drink more water aswell.
I am doing the Feb 2011 rotation, I am now happy to move on.
Ladies we have been discussing the same topic on another thread. Here is the link, Feel free to "chime in"

Yes, I've been lurking on that thread, ha!
I have thought about doing the real Rock Bottoms rotation but I don't know how I can do the walking lunges inside unless I just modify it to be all reverse/forward static lunges but walking lunges are much more effective: they kill me but static lunges, not nearly as much. Also wondering if it's overkill for my Nutrisystem diet: Nutrisystem is the only thing that has worked for me recently. I love the food and love that it takes the guesswork out of everything. But I do want to ramp up my weight loss because now after 13 weeks, I'm back to losing only 1 lb per week.
