“INTENSITY” is thy name and extreme fitness is thy game. When it comes to INTENSITY….you have met your match and more!!! I just adore this DVD. I know it sounds crazy with how intense it is, but there is an amazing amount of fun factor that goes along with the “sweat and tears” here.
We actually LOVED rehearsing this DVD and looked forward to the butt kicking every time. If I had to say why this workout is the one I think you will reach for time and time again, it comes down to a lot of things just coming together perfectly.
First, the music is SO fun. No lie, it really is, and makes you want to get up out of your chair each time you hear it. Second, the music matches the choreography in the workout so well that just when you think you can’t do it again, you find that pep in your step and keep going. Third, the choreography is upbeat “Classic Cathe” (for lack of a better term) and allows you to just get in and go for it. Fourth, there is just enough twist on the moves to keep you on your toes along with minimal breakdown (because I know you are going to do this again and again), so you can’t possibly get bored. Fifth, it is so versatile. You can do it as one long 60 minute workout or break it in to separate segments (for a short workout day) or an add on to another workout of your choice (to put a new twist on your existing fitness library). Sixth, Intensity is extremely well chaptered and comes with nine Premixes, including several Timesaver workouts. A “Mix-and-Match” menu is also included on the DVD so that you can easily and quickly select any individual segment in the workout, perfect for days when you’re short on time or just need a quick cardio fix.
Ok, now that I have you curiously salivating (lol) let me give you the breakdown of the workout.
Step Warm Up…upbeat
Intensity Step….stepped up step with Classis Cathe choreography
Intensity Max (with the step)….think along the format of an Imax Workout
Intensity HIIT: High Impact…Think of our other HIIT workout, but different moves and no step
Intensity HIIT: Low Impact…you can keep it completely low or put a slight lift on the moves to give them more energy
Bonus: Intensity Bootcamp…looking for some cardio & weights? Here you go… a quick fix 13 min Total Body Workout
The only equipment you will need for the main Intensity workout is a step. If you do the extra Bootcamp segment or Premix, you will also need dumbbells and a band. Can’t wait to show you the Video Clips!
Get Ready To Sweat!!!

Nine premixes? Mini bonus Intensity bootcamp? Mix and match menu?
