In the User’s Guide you’ll find workout details about nearly every exercise in the XTrain program, including the weight Cathe uses for each exercise. You‘ll find workout times for all of the workouts and premixes as well as the chapters included with each premix.
A list of recommended exercises to take a one rep max test is provided and the correlating Workout Manager exercise number is also listed to so that you can quickly find the exercise you want to test for as quickly as possible.
The Xtrain User Guide comes with four Rotations that can also be downloaded in your Workout Manager online calendar. A 5th rotation will only be included in the Workout Manager and not in the User Guide.
The following is a list of our five XTrain official Rotations:
1. XTrain 90 Day Undulating Workout Program
2. Optional XTrain & Low Impact Series 90 dayWorkout Program
3. Optional Cardio & Strength Combined 30 Day Workout Program (this is patterned after our CTX series and offers you the ability to do both cardio and one body part strength segment in the same day or workout)
4. Optional 30 Day Program with Ride included
5. Optional 30 Day Upper Body Strength Workout Program (Only available online in our Workout Manager)
These are just five rotations. We could easily right hundreds of rotations for XTrain. With 142 Premix workouts and a whole bunch of bonus workouts you have almost unlimited options at disposal. We designed our XTrain premixes so that each workout offers numerous workout time options to fit almost any workout time schedule.

Cathe, this is awesome! Thanks for everything and can’t wait to get on the “X Train”!!
I love that you have included what weight Cathe is using and a list and description for all the premixes. Please continue to do that for all the workouts you produce in the future!
Can’t wait to get this series!!
I may have missed this answer but those of us who pre-ordered downloads will we still have the user guide? I pre-ordere 9 DVDs and ordered the Ride! DVD.
Download customers will get a digital version of the User’s Guide
This is so great! I can’t wait!!!
I am so excited to start working out with xtrain!!!
Chomping at the bit!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow — This is very comprehensive!!!!!! I can’t wait to get it!! Thank you for including what weight Cathe uses AND a rotation with the Low Impact Series!
This is why Cathe is the BEST.
I am chomping at the bit too!! Really excited to see low impact included and especially lat exercises – posture is an issue for me and a particular focus on this will be of benefit to me. I love jumping into a rotation as there is no worry about working out which workout to do when – all I need to do is get stuck into it. Thanks Catherine and crew – your work is very much appreciated.
Sorry I of course meant Cathe and crew!!! – damn iPhone corrector…. 🙂
will the user guide come with the set?????
Yes, the User’s Guide is included for free when buy either the 9 or 10 pack.
I didn’t get a book with my dvd’s. Is it possible to remedy this?
We only include the book for free if you order the entire XTrain series. If this is the case just contact customer service for further assistance.
I am new to Cathe. I ordered x-train from collage. I ordered only 6 of the disc and did not receive a training manual. Any chance I could down load one?
Thanks,
Patricia
I have downloaded for free the Rotations guide that came out when the Ripped with Hiit came out. I belong to the streaming online that I pay for every month and I am looking for the user’s guide to download from the Xtrain series that came with the DVDs. Can I also get it downloaded for free? Thank you.
That’s something you have to purchase from our download site.
I bought the 9 dvd Xtrain series on amazon. Is there a way I can get a copy of the user guide?
Hi Sue,
The Xtrain User’s guide can be purchased separately from us at: https://shop.cathe.com/XTRAIN-User-s-90-Day-Program-User-s-Guide-p/951.htm
Hello,
I purchased the XTrain series several years ago but I want to do it again and I can’t find my training guide. Is there a way I could get that?
I really only need the calendar showing what workout to do each day.
Thank you.
