Is LowMax as fun as Imax 2?

I love Imax2 and wish there were 12 intervals instead of 10! I've just ordered LM & was wondering how it compares to IM2 or are they totally different....

Well, I haven't got Imax2, but Lowmax is a total blast. I love it. It's so much fun. You'll definitely enjoy it.:)
 
I've done both Imax 2 and Lowmax, and I think Lowmax is more fun. I DO like Imax 2, though...they're both great, but I think Lowmax is a lot more diverse. I think you'll love it.
 
IMax 2 is my favorite Cathe workout.

Having said that, LowMax is a blast, yet it is deceiving. I thought it would be 'easier' because it is low intensity, but this workout is INTENSE and always leaves me soaked with sweat. I love this workout...

I love both.

But for me they have a different purpose. Imax2 (and 1 and 3) I use for the aerobic intensity and as a plyometrics w/o.

Low Max I use specifically for the leg intensity. I do not consider it an interval w/o cause for that I like my HR to go anaerobic, which doesn't happen at all. But if you do it right, Low Max is truly very intense. And I love it.

Two of my favorites also...just posted on another threat how much I love Low Max...it's right up there with Imax 2 and Step Blast for me as far as the "love factor" goes, lol!
 
So, would you use LM more as a leg day or is it steady cardio as well?

You will love LowMax, I think it is the best workout out of all the hardcores. It is a killer on the legs!

I know I love Imax 2. In fact, I did it twice this week in exchange for one of my runs on the treadmill. The treadmill seems so boring lately. Anyway, I recently purchased LM and cannot wait to do the whole work out. I had it Tivo'd, but of course the whole work out wasn't there because of those pesky commercials!x( I was definitely sweating doing that one from FitTV. I think that there are both fun! I think LM really targets your legs especially if you use the 8" step.

Fun, fun, fun! Now, I'm working up the courage for Imax 3!

It's both. I specifically use it for the leg intensity and the cardio is just a nice "side effect". I go out for a 7K tempo run a few hours after.
Sometimes I add the LM blasts to 30min. of Imax, with the leg drills of kick max.

I really like Lowmax...lower impact on a higher step (8 inch) I find very fun!! http://bestsmileys.com/bouncing/14.gif[/img] ...:)..Carole
