Cathe Friedrich's Travel Fit |
 Great Travel Workout |
| I love Cathe and this DVD does not disappoint. It is challenging and requires very little space. It can easily be done in a hotel room. I highly recommend using gloves. I forgot to pack mine and as a result, the bands irritated my palms. Rubber and sweat do not go well together! This is a great workout to stay on program when duty calls you away from the comfort of your own workout space. - posted by Audrey on 5/10/2012 |

 Worth the money!!! |
| Finally a workout tape I can stand over a period of time. This does not get boring, the teacher is focused and good at what she does, and they are right, it's a great workout! I would say tho this is "just bands" it is toward the more advanced side in that you need to have some basic core strength to keep from straining your back. A few of the moves really stain the back so be prepared to know how to alter these to be safe. I'm talking forward flexion without support, full sit ups, trunk rotations during sit ups with both legs extended and off the floor, things like that. If you are good at modifications or don't need to, this is a great workout for 50 minutes. It is well worth taking on a trip. I would give it five stars were it not for the potential of straining the lower back. I'd definitely but many more of her workout DVDs - posted by Jessica on 5/4/2012 |

| Super Efficient for Travel and a Great Workout, Too |
| I've had this workout since it came out, but I finally tried it yesterday. I'm going on vacation this week & traveling by plane with only a carry-on, so I need to pack light. This workout is perfect because I only need to pack the DVD and a resistance band. Travel Fit is full of great band-toning work with short cardio segments -- perfect because I'll be running while I'm on vacation. The band work fried my arms, and it incorporates lower body, too. I am so glad Cathe made this workout. I can still workout with her while I'm on vacation. YAY! - posted by Marla on 3/6/2012 |

| Cathe Friedrich Travel Fit |
| This is a great all-around work out for someone who lives full-time in my RV. You don't need alot of space and equipment. - posted by Susie on 2/24/2012 |

| one of my favorites |
| This workout is super-complete. It hits every body part, including calves, and is really fun. The only drawback is the abs section, in which Cathe does a lot of unsafe full sit-ups really fast. I substitute safer crunches and Pilates ab work during that section. But I like this workout well enough that I've bought it for friends and relatives. - posted by vanessa on 1/13/2012 |

| Great! |
| Love this workout. I got it for when I travel but decided to do this workout at home and try it out. I loved it. Don't let the low impact fool you. It's tough. The bands really add a different dimension and a nice change from weights while still getting great strength training. I especially love the push up work and the abwork. Fantastic. I would have given it 5 stars had it had a bit more cardio intervals mixed in. - posted by Jill on 10/4/2011 |

| Really nice for a light day |
| I like to do this workout on days when I don't feel like working out too intensely. (I used to be the type who overdoes it with fitness, but now I'm smarter - we really need light days, too) The workout's a lot of fun, it's motivating, it's not time-consuming and I like the bright leaf-green color of bands and tanktops on screen :) Some of my favorite exercises are included (push-ups, and back work with band, and lying outer thigh work with band, and bow-and-arrow move with band). The ab work is good, too, I love bicycles and planks! - posted by Sandra on 9/20/2011 |

| Great workout!!! |
| I am 56 years old, used to exercise everyday but slacked off for the last few years... started up again a year ago after quitting smoking, using Leslie Sansone; her 'walks' are great, but I was getting pretty flabby around the mid section after a year of 6-days a week exercise! So, I tried this DVD and WOW! What a great workout. It's challenging, and you get results. I've done it only three times in the last week and a half and can already see and feel a difference! I'm still doing the walking workouts with Leslie, but will use this type of workout every other day to build strength and fight the flab. Cathe's personality is great and the time just whizzes by -- the movements are easy to follow and she uses lots of reps, really working each muscle group. I feel just fabulous afterward. I'll be trying more of her workouts in the future! - posted by Diane on 7/21/2011 |

| a winner! |
| Another great workout from Cathe! It is billed as having a cardio element to it, but is mostly band work. (my heart rate never exceeded 123) The band work is excellent. Her suggestion of wearing weight gloves really made holding the band more comfortable. - posted by Trish on 7/17/2011 |

| How Can You Not Love Cathe? Now She Can Travel With You! |
| I have a lot of Cathe's workouts. I love ALL of them, whether they are step, k-boxing, HIIT, or straight weight training. You cannot go wrong with her. I was so happy to find this workout so that I could take Cathe with me when I travel. Does not require alot of space, and I like using the bands. It is a nice change from weights and it is good for me to mix it up. It may be low impact, but it still gets my heart rate up. If you want you can add a little plyo to what she is doing to make it more intense. I do this one at home from time to time as well as it is not just for traveling. It's a great workout. Love this one. Get it! - posted by Jill Sherry on 6/1/2011 |
