Cathe Friedrich's IMAX 4 Low Impact Step Aerobics DVD

Cathe Friedrich's IMAX 4 low impact step aerobics DVD follows the same basic format of the past IMAX DVD workouts, with the added bonus of this one being entirely low impact! You'll start each round with a basic step routine which we will repeat six times. You don't have to be a master stepper to follow these mini combos. They will be straightforward and easy to follow. Each mini combo will be followed by a low impact high-intensity blast segment which then transitions into a short resting phase. This pattern will be repeated throughout the workout. The advanced nature of the workout comes not from the complexity of the routine itself, but from the intensity and nonstop formatting.

*This low impact step aerobics DVD includes an ab bonus and a stretch bonus.

Cathe Friedrich's Kick Max Workout DVD

Kick Max workout DVD is approximately 70 minutes in length and is broken up into the following segments.

Warm-Up - 12 min.

A nice extended warm-up that will incorporate the basic kick and punches into movement patterns plus incorporate new movement patterns designed to enhance your balance and flexibility.

Kick and Punch Combos - 22 min.

Similar to the format of KPC's segment, you will now do 4 combinations that feature a punching combo combined with a kicking combo. The first combo is more elementary and each one after that will gradually become more intricate to keep you challenged and working hard. As I tell all of my students during these types of combo's "you get out of it what you put into it" so be sure to really "punch the punch" and "kick the kick" Btw, we'll have our hands wrapped for this segment but this is not required.

Kickbox/Bootcamp Challenge - 15 min.

Here you will do 10 high impact conditioning drills (some more intense than others). You will recognize most of the moves in this segment since the purpose is to quickly "see it and do it". This segment provides the bonus burn for those who are wanting a hardcore, calorie-burning, challenge. Good news for those who are not interested in this segment: simply skip to leg conditioning drills and you still get a close to an hour kickbox workout.

Leg Conditioning Drills - 18 min.

"OUCHIE" best describes how you will feel during these drills (Don't worry, it gets just a little easier with each and every workout. This segment is designed to shape your legs while enhancing your kicking skills and flexibility. The more skilled and flexible you become, the more efficient your future workouts will be. You will do conditioning drills for the round/sidekicks and hip flexor and front kicks. You will also do slow motion side, round, front snap, and front thrust kicks to really get a feel for them. A chair is required for this segment. Stretch is a 6-minute relaxing stretch that will complete this challenging workout.

It consists of traditional weighted exercises followed by plyometric exercises to develop power and explosive strength as well as tight and toned legs.

The advantage of using the Cathe 18 inch (5.25-inch diameter) blue foam roller is that it is more portable than our 36-inch roller. Foam rollers are your best friend when it comes to releasing tight muscles, improving flexibility, and increasing range of motion without reducing power. Plus, they help you stay free of injuries. Enjoy the benefits they offer!

What does a foam roller have to do with fitness? A lot! You may have seen someone rolling back and forth one of these cylindrical objects and wondered what the heck they're doing. They're doing a technique called self-myofascial release. It's a way to help your muscles recover after a workout and reduce the risk of injury.

Your muscles are covered with a thin layer of dense connective tissue called fascia, the same tissue that covers nerves and blood vessels. Fascia help to hold together and protect groups of muscles while still allowing them to move. The problem is muscle fascia can become too tight, usually as a result of overuse, injury or poor posture. When this happens, it can reduce blood flow to the muscle and cause muscle tension and tightness. That can lead to decreased performance during exercise and a greater risk of injury.

How does fascia become too tight? As you know, the stress of exercise causes microscopic muscle tears to form. This leads to low-grade muscle inflammation. Over time, this inflammation causes scar tissue and adhesions to develop, causing muscle tension and tightness. The goal of myofascial release is to break up this scar tissue, increase blood flow and release tension so the muscle can move fluidly again. Osteopathic physicians and physical therapists perform this technique on clients to help release tight muscles. In fact, the myofascial release has been around for more than 70 years. Fortunately, you can get some of the same benefits at home using a Cathe foam roller.

The Cathe Coral Light Resistance Band is made of environmentally friendly TPE and is latex free, yet it's lightweight and portable. The portability of fitness bands gives them an inherent advantage over weights that are too heavy to carry on vacation.

You can build strength and muscle in a variety of ways, by working with dumbbells, barbells, or machines, or doing bodyweight exercises. The key is to work your body against resistance in a way that's challenging enough to force it to adapt and change. Each of these resistance training modalities offers benefits. But there's one tool for resistance training many people fail to take advantage of in their training routine - resistance bands.

You can rest assured that you're getting an effective workout with Cathe TPE 6 foot resistance bands. Training with elastic bands leads to similar or, in some cases, greater muscle activation than using a similar resistance with weights. Plus, you can't use momentum to take some of the stimulus off the muscles you're working on. Don't give up the dumbbells and barbells, but add some resistance bands to the mix for a more diverse workout. You might discover you enjoy the variable resistance that these workout bands offer and the way they're easy to carry with you wherever you go.

Features:

• CATHE CORAL LIGHT RESISTANCE BAND - Includes single CORAL = LIGHT Resistance Band. They're suitable for beginners or seasoned exercisers.
• JUST THE RIGHT LENGTH - To get the proper tension throughout an exercise using exercise resistance bands you need to select workout bands of the proper length. Cathe has always used 6 foot resistance bands in her workouts because they are the ideal length for most exercises and will allow consistent and smooth tension throughout each exercise movement.
• LATEX FREE - Cathe TPE resistance bands are latex-free and offer superior and smoother elasticity throughout the entire exercise movement, including both the concentric and eccentric phases of the exercise. Our bands for working out are also made from environmentally friendly TPE and will not irritate your skin because they are latex free.
• OUR EXERCISE BANDS CAN BE USED AS THERAPY BANDS, GYM BANDS, SPORTS, AND EXERCISE BANDS - Many people also use our stretch bands for physical therapy. Because you can train vertically, horizontally, or rotationally with physical therapy bands, they're ideal for building functional strength, sports specific training, yoga bands resistance, and physical therapy exercises. Our exercise stretch bands are often used by trainers and physical therapists to help them train rehabilitate and train their clients. You can do exercises with our bands that accomplish a particular objective, like improving your tennis swing. It's not very practical to swing dumbbells around in a horizontal plane. An exercise band gives you more options.
• TRAINING BANDS ARE PORTABLE - Portability is the reason some people buy resistance bands for exercise. When you're going on vacation and staying in a cabin with no access to a gym, resistance bands are the ideal way to get a strength workout. Just toss the bands in your suitcase and you have a portable gym and one that's easy to carry around. All you need is a small space and some bands to get an effective workout. You have to love the fact that resistance bands weigh so little, yet provide enough resistance to sculpt your muscles and boost their strength! Who wants to lug around sets of dumbbells? Heck, you can even work with resistance bands at the office!

• CATHE RESISTANCE BANDS SET - Includes 4 different elastic workout bands strength levels: CORAL = Light Resistance, GREEN = Medium Resistance, BLUE = Heavy Resistance, YELLOW = X-Heavy Resistance. They're suitable for beginners or seasoned exercisers.
• JUST THE RIGHT LENGTH - To get the proper tension throughout an exercise using exercise resistance bands you need to select workout bands of the proper length. Cathe has always used 6ft resistance bands in her workouts because they are the ideal length for most exercises and will allow consistent and smooth tension throughout each exercise movement.
