The Intensity Series As A Whole

We think you are really going to love the new Intensity Series. It can be used as a "shock your system" rotation in its entirety or you may insert any of the workouts to accomodate your current fitness rotations/workouts. There are no rules to these workouts, simply use them as another way to shake up your workouts. As all of us already know, the body needs recovery time as well as light and hard day workouts. With that in mind, this series expresses different levels of intensity.

Also, we should always listen to our bodies on a daily basis so feel free to alter the workouts as you see fit by modifying to lighter weights on days your body needs it or even increasing your weights on days your body is feeling strong.

So as you see, there are endless ways to keep your fitness workouts refreshing and inspiring.....ENJOY!!!!

PS....For starters, I will share a couple of ways to enjoy the Intensity series. How long you stay on any of these rotations is totally based on how your body is responding. If it feels good continue, if you feel pretty tired and sore, modify the intensity within each workout to fit your needs, if you feel flat out exhausted and ultra sore, alternate it with some less intense workouts.

Oh thank you Cathe! Your enthusiasm is contagious! If someone was eager to try out their Terminator DVD, would you recommend taking a day off after doing one of those workouts? They all sound pretty intense. Would it be realistic to, say, do The Viper and a Pyramid workout on consecutive days? Thanks again. Eagerly awaiting this series!

You continue...

...to amaze and inspire. Thanks for this input, the descriptions and the photos. I know I've said it a million times before...but thank you Cathe from the bottom of my heart. You are the absolute BEST there is and I'm blessed to have found you and your videos!

Hope you and your boys are well. You look fabulous. A true inspiration to other mothers out there.

Just one quick question if you have a second. In terms of the Pyramid Lower Body tape, would you say it's tougher or as tough as Leaner Legs? I credit Leaner Legs with totally reshaping my bottom half. Will this video be a good compliment to LL?

Thank you so much for your suggestions Cathe, I am SO incredibly excited for these workouts (my friends think I'm quite weird being excited for EXERCISE)! They are my Christmas gift from my bf and he won't let me open them til we exchange gifts. Argh. I would rather have them sooner than later, but at the same time if they got here sooner it would be too much torture to hold back! What to do!! :)

THANK YOU Cathe!!! I absolutely cannot wait until I get these workouts. I, too, would like to know how Pyramid Lower Body compares with your other leg workouts.

RE: Just a simple Q & A:

1. Will Cardio Weights kick my butt from here to Calgary? Yes, or no? Yes? GOOD!

2. Will I need a crash cart handy when doing Interval Max 2? Si, o no? Si? BUENO!

3. Will my husband be terrified of me while I'm doing Boot Camp? Oui, o non? Oui? BON!

4. Will The Terminator terminate me, and will I go out with a smile on my face? Ja, u* nein? Ja? GUT!

Danke schoen, Mein Cathe!

*(P.S. I had to fake that one because I don't know the German word for "or". Whatever.)
