She also wanted a workout that could easily be changed and done in different ways to maximize muscle confusion helping to avoid boredom and plateaus.

“This workout will leave you with some serious DOMS. If that is what you are looking for then this is for you. When you find that perfect weight, you feel stronger and stand taller. Not a lot of different exercises like the others, but that last burn set gets you every time. But you’re not done, then you have one more burn set add-on. Ouch!!!! Thanks, Cathe for another great one.”
“This is the strength workout I have been dreaming about and wishing for! Lifting heavy gets results. And that my friends is what it is all about.
There are so many ways to make this versatile and fit your schedule during a given week.
I feel like Burn Sets upper body is like the best-kept secret….except I want to share it with you. It will take you to a new level!” – asoccermom
“I did the Burn Sets upper body premix for the 1st time today. Loved it! Pacing and challenges are great. I really enjoyed the Chest/Back/Shoulders and Bi/Tris Burn Sets on their own and having this makes the workout even more versatile (not to mention the single body part premixes.) Amazing value for a workout DVD – Thanks, Cathe!” – Breathe
“Wow, I love Burn Sets UB premix. It’s like the premix I always wanted on the Slow and Heavy DVDs. I can feel the soreness setting in after doing it for the second time this morning. I like to work my whole upper body, so this premix is just what I needed. Thanks, Cathe!” – exercise-lover
