Cathe Friedrich's The Classics Vol 1 DVD (three workouts on one DVD) Review

Cathe Friedrich's The Classics Vol 1 DVDI am an intermediate level exerciser who started my trek to fitness by mastering Cathe's Basic Step and Body Fusion and Low Impact Step + Total Body Sculpting DVDs.While I've been working on my fitness level, I've acquired pretty much all her other DVDs, including Low Max and Low Impact Circuit.Cathe is a fabulous instructor, her cuing and choreography are bar none!The workouts on this DVD are some of Cathe's very early work, most are from 1995-1996, so Cathe is much younger and her instruction style a little less polished (she whoops and yelps much more than she does now).However, do not take the age of these workouts to mean that they are not intense or challenging!!!!

This DVD has been quite valuable to me as I was having trouble with some of the more intricate choreography on DVDs like Rhythmic Step, and even some of the intervals on Low Max, so my progress had slowed.I popped in this DVD and many of the steps in Cathe's latest and greatest DVDs are broken down and taught in more detail in this set of workouts!

My personal favorite of the group is Step Jam.Cathe really gets you moving around the step and makes some very difficult steps (that are repeated in her later workouts) easy to do.I can only remember once when she miscued, but the workout was taught so well, it wasn't a problem.If you can ignore the dated sets and music, you will get a quality workout and a solid foundation on which to progress!

Product Description:
STEP JAM is designed to challenge you with innovative choreography, but with Cathe's crystal clear cueing even the most complicated moves seem easy. 8 minute warm-up, 47 minutes of step aerobics, 5 minute cool-down. STEP HEAT is one of Cathe's most popular step aerobic routines for those new to Cathe. This workout is also shorter than Cathe's typical workout and features two advanced step segments. The first one is intense and straight forward. The second one involves more intricate choreography. Both sections will challenge even the most experienced stepper! 7 minute warm-up, 35 minutes step aerobics, 7 minute cool-down, 7 minutes of abs, 3 minute stretch.STEP MAX is an advanced 60 minute workout that delivers the cardiovascular intensity you're looking for. The upbeat warm-up is full of variety and prepares you for three challenging step sections that get progressively more intense as the workout continues. The first section is more straight forward and linear using base moves which focus on intensity instead of complexity. The second section introduces a fun and easy to learn combination. The third section gives you the ultimate challenge, loaded with propulsion, plyometric and power moves. Get ready to sweat!. 9 minute warm-up, 40 minutes step aerobics, 7 minute cool-down.
