4 of 5 Good workout, but not Cathe's best August 4, 2014
Reviewer: Susan from MO  
This is a good, solid workout & if it was by another instructor, I'd probably give it 5 stars, but I hold Cathe to a higher standard. Cathe uses a variety of weights, a firewalker band, a regular exercise band & a mat. As far as the weights, I used 10, 8, 5 & 3 lbs. Cathe uses a single 25 lb weight at one point, but I don't have that heavy of a weight. The workout is around 56 minutes. It is mainly a toning video and even though I don't mind a lower heart rate during weight lifting as compared to cardio, my heart rate didn't go up as much as I liked. According to my heart rate monitor, I burned 175 calories. This was a good workout, but I don't see me reaching for this one as much as other Cathe videos.

4 of 5 Another fantastic all over body burn from Cather July 15, 2014
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from ON  
I love the variety in this one it will leave you sweaty. It will boost your metabolic  rate for sure. I love that you can do a premix with no equipment but weights if your tight on time. She gives great motivation and form points as always because she is fantastic.

4 of 5 Good Full Body workout July 10, 2014
Reviewer: Bells  
This isn't quite as hard as other Cathe MWT workouts, but still hits almost every muscle.  I do use a bit heavier weights and tighter bands to get more of a burn.  I do find the pace a bit slower (my mind wanders) than her other workouts, but not enough to make me not like or use this video.  I don't reach for this one as much, but it may be because Cathe has so many other great workouts.

5 of 5 Fun, Happy, and Tough July 9, 2014
Reviewer: Suzanne from Arlington, VA United States  
FT is not easy, so be prepared. All the segments (except for the chest which is drop set pushups on the mat & burpee/pushups w/disks) are tough. I especially felt the shoulder segment, non-stop, I surrender type of burn. Don't be fooled & go heavy because I used 8s like Cathe & was dreading it. The back segment, particularly the part where you use the band, is great. Rows & band Ts. The tricep segment was my least favorite, mostly because I don't like the kickbacks in a plank position (I have to modify to table top). The core segment is great. Enjoyed the variety here--you'll feel it. Nothing special about the stretch, but it's pretty comprehensive. Music was fun and happy.

5 of 5 Solid... July 5, 2014
Reviewer: Denine from Bronx, NY United States  
This is a solid total body workout. It's not as advanced as some of Cathe's other workouts, but it provided a nice challenge for me. I liked the fact that you only need minimal equipment!

4 of 5 Another good workout by Cathe May 3, 2014
Reviewer: Denise S. from The Villages, FL United States  
I truly enjoyed this one as it not only is muscle endurance, but because of the pace you will experience a cardio workout also.  There is some variations and new moves, however it at times reminded me of some of her other workouts from her Low Impact and X Training series.  That said, I am glad I purchased this to add to my rotations.
