Cathe Friedrich's AfterBurn |
 Intense |
| I love this workout. It's tough. I am restricted from doing high impact exercise, but this really gets my heart rate up. I want more workouts like this one. - posted by Kathleen on 5/10/2012 |

| Burn baby burn |
| This workout will make you sweat!!! Cathe uses your body in so many different ways to get you strong, lean, sculpted and sweaty. I used paper plates on the carpet and it was fine, some of the weights were too heavy so I modified. If I needed to stop and breathe, I did. After doing the workout several times....sure enough it got better and so did I!! Cathe is worth it and this DVD is a must for anyone who wants a challenging workout! Her cueing is great and I appreciate seeing Cathe gasp for air at times!! Great total body!! - posted by Peg on 5/10/2012 |

 Didn't know low impact can be so tough! |
| This video will get your blood pumping. Low impact but tough and I really liked how it was easy on your joints. And I used paper plates, because I didn't have the disks. And that was a challenge. I actually liked doing the traditional moves with the paper plates even better than without. - posted by mary on 4/27/2012 |

| Excellent Workout... |
| I wanted to try this workout since I had previously hurt my knee and it was recommended by very helpful Collage consultant to try. I have to say it is one of the hardest workouts I had ever done (and I do other Cathe workouts and Michelle Dozois). This was TOUGH! There is a lot of squats and lunges (with weights) and repetitions are supercharged!! I was sore for three days after the workout. The pace is quick which is great. The gliders are easy to learn (I work out on carpet and got the gliders made for carpet from Collage). They are also fun to use and break up the workout. They actually make you push faster when doing mountain climbers and other exercises. I loved this workout and recommend it for all advanced exercisers as an weekly option when you want to minimize the jumping and the force put on the knees and legs. - posted by Laurie on 4/19/2012 |

| Good Low Impact Alternative |
| I definitely appreciate having a low impact alternative. Some of the moves are very tough. The cardio segments are a bit repetitive, and I would like a little more ab work. However, overall, it is a great workout for those who want to avoid high impact workouts. - posted by Marie on 4/12/2012 |

| Great! (And a possible solution for wrist pain) |
| Cathe proves that low-impact does NOT equal easy! I was huffing and puffing, my legs shaking like a jello mold, and having a GREAT time. There are a lot of planks, so if you suffer from wrist pain there are a couple things you can try: you can buy a pair of wrist wedges, which generally go for about $20, or there are wrist support gloves that have gel padding in the palms. You can also try using "fists for wrists," in which you make a fist and put the weight on the lower outside halves of your fingers, palms facing each other (like a gorilla, lol!). - posted by Alyssa on 4/2/2012 |

| Good low impact cardio BUTone major problem for me |
| If you want very intense cardio workout that is not hard on your knees then this is definitely a good choice. But I had one major problem with this workout. In this workout Cathe does a lot of different exercises where you are in a plank position supporting your body weight on your hands. So after I did this workout my wrists were hurting me for 2 days. - posted by Boe on 4/1/2012 |

| My new favorite!!!!! |
| This is a great workout! Don't let low impact fool you, it is a real challenge! I am sweating by the end of the first interval. I am used to challenging workouts by Jari, Michelle and Cathe, but recently can not do high impact moves because of issues with my knees and ankles. I am so glad to have found a challenging workout without having to jump! It is fast paced and fun. I love the premixes as well. Even the shorter premixes are a real challenge. Thanks Cathe!! - posted by Kim on 3/30/2012 |
