Cathe Friedrich's Butts & Guts & FREE Resistance Band Review

I'm an advanced exerciser and own many of Cathe's DVDs. If you're familiar with her workouts, you know she's good for delivering a challenge. This one is KILLER - the mother of all leg & glute workouts - and it'll turn you to mush. I have been on a P90X rotation for the past two months but dusted off Butts & Guts yesterday because I've really been missing it. Yowzas! I am feelin' it today!!

The workout as produced starts off with a warmup followed by standing leg work (including walking lunges, one-legged squats, hammer punches, lunge/squat combos, firewalkers, etc.) Then there's floor work using ankle weights (but believe me, you'll feel it w/out them), abs, and a stretch.There are also some bonus segments: stability ball abs, sit n' stands, leg presses, and glute squeezes.

What I appreciate about Cathe's workouts is that all of them are chaptered and come with several premixes as well as the option of mixing and matching. The 47.5 minute Leg Blast premix on this one is a torture session that'll leave your lower half screaming. (That's the one I did yesterday.) The other premixes include: a Standing Glutes & Abs Timesaver (49.5 min.), Overall Legs (65 min.) and Floor Work & Abs (59.5 minutes).

You'll need a resistance band, dumbbells, high step or Fanny Lifter, stability ball, ankle weights, and barbell (I have one but usually sub dumbbells.)

If you want great music, excellent cuing, and a super TOUGH, effective workout, look no further!
