Your favorite weight lifting DVD

[diane334]

I am looking to buy one (or more) DVDs from Cathe that are purely weight training. Can anyone rank their favorites? (PUB/PUL, PS, SH, Power Hour etc.).

Thanks,
Diane

My favorite weight training of Cathe's is the Pyramid series followed by Power Hour then PS then SH.

I'm so new to the world of Cathe, so haven't used many of them yet. I have used the Pyramids and absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE them both! I have Slow & Heavy on the way now and will probably try Muscle Endurance this weekend, so maybe be able to give more info after that. I HAVE previewed it twice and know I will like that one as well.

Edited to take out Bootcamp ref!

I think it depends if you want more strength or endurance. If it is Strength I would go with PS series or PUB/PLB. Both are excellent. S&H can be very mentally challenging because of the slow reps and 1 minute rest periods, and Cathe usually recommends doing these for only about 3 weeks to shake things up.
For muscle Endurance you could go with PH or ME. I like Muscle Endurance better than PH, but they are both excellent.

Let us know what you decide and how you like them.

My all time favorite is the Pyramids and second is Pure Strength. Both of these are excellent workouts.

Get the Power Hour DVD. You also get MIS and Bodymax on this DVD. MIS is a very good full body strength/endurance workout. Cathe does lots of rep for each bodypart, but the weights she uses are higher than in her other full body workouts. Power Hour is a great endurance workout, and Bodymax includes cardio. It's a lot of varied workouts for your money!

I have to second this recommendation. I recently purchased this DVD (I already had Pure Strength, PUB/PLB, and Muscle Endurance) but I have to say right now I am in LOVE with Power Hour! I have been doing this workout twice a week for the past three weeks (and I have to stop myself from doing it more). The workout just flies by- the music is awesome- the shoulder section is the best! I used to hate endurance workouts and would concentrate on strength building exclusively, but I think PH is one of my all-time favorites. I haven't even gotten around to trying MIS or Body Max.

I love the Pyramid workouts...but I want to purchase Pure Strength and Slow & Heavy one of these days.:7

Slow & Heavy without a doubt although I love the Pyramids too. I haven't got the Pure Strength series yet so can't compare it but I think the Slow & Heavy workouts will still be my favourites. They do terrific things for my body and really blast the fat.

I wonder what the people who have the Body Blast series already, prefer? I can't wait to get my DVDs

Thanks for everyone's suggestions. I have ME coming in the mail, and will probably get the PUB/PLB and either PS DVD or Power Hour DVD.

I did what people suggested on another post and started selling some of my older videos I don't use and already made enough to buy some DVDs!!


Thanks,
Diane

Hands down, Pure Stength. Check out Videofitness.com where 2 of the three workouts made the Hall of Fame and the other made favorite. It's a perfect workout series for strength training, IMHO.
