This DVD contains three muscle conditioning workouts workouts, including Cathe's Power Hour, Maximum Intensity Strength and Body Max (Body Max contains both Cardio and weight training). As with all of our DVDs, you can easily program your DVD player to choose only the sections of each workout that you want to do. You can even mix one section from one workout with another.

Power Hour - This total body muscular endurance workout is sure to leave no muscle untouched or under worked. To get the maximum benefits out of this workout, you'll need an adjustable barbell and various weighted dumbbells. We're sure that you will love the new and unique soundtrack that was specifically created for this energizing workout too. The workout is tightly choreographed to 10 songs. You'll begin with a warm up song, and then each song following that will target a major muscle group at a time and work it to exhaustion. To do this, each muscle group will engage in high repetitions and a series of various weighted movement patterns for the duration of a song. To get superior results, you will need to find the most challenging weight possible that allows you to complete each song yet still maintain good form and alignment. You'll complete the workout with a relaxing stretch. This workout promotes good posture, improved muscle tone, strengthens your core region (the body's center of power), and promotes functional fitness. It is an all around winner workout!

Maximum Intensity Strength is a 75 minute advanced muscular conditioning video. Cathe has structured the workout to target all the major muscle groups beginning with the larger muscle groups first. Each muscle group is worked to exhaustion before moving on to the next.

BodyMax (91 minutes) is a completely different type of workout with the emphasis on aerobics and endurance. A step, barbell and various dumbbells are used in this workout. This cross-training workout begins with 24 minutes of simple but intense step aerobics.
The circuit section in the middle of the workout, is approx. 20 min in length and will provide you with a "shock your metabolism" effect since it consists of 5 cycles - each one moving quickly from high intensity step - to plyo step - to a very brief recovery and immediately into leg work with weights.)
The third section is approx. 20 min. in length and provides an all-out-non stop- upper body-weight workout that is similar in style to "Maximum Intensity Strength", however, the focus is on endurance and the rest periods are shorter. And finally, if you have survived this far, Cathe will take you through a 7 min. killer ab routine. The workout concludes with a relaxing stretch and features beautiful new age music which seems to encourage the release of any and all tension in the body/mind.

4 of 5 Overlooked but shouldn't be July 10, 2014
Reviewer: Bells  
With all of Cathe's other wonderful videos, this one seems to get lost in the shuffle and shouldn't.  This video consists of 3 workouts.  2 are mainly weight focused while the 3rd is cardio/wts.  Great versatility and fun to do.

4 of 5 Review for Maximum Intensity Strength Only July 4, 2014
Reviewer: Bubbles76  
This is a total body strength workout created back in the 90s, but it's still a very useful, tough workout today. The DVD starts off with a great step workout warm up. During the actual workout, she uses a 35 lb. barbell and dumbells ranging from 8-20 pounds. Although she uses a barbell in many of her exercises, you could probably substitute for dummbbells.

She does about 8-16 reps per set, depending on the exercise. Each body part has its own section and there are form pointers given before each section starts. That gives you a little time to set up. There are also form pointers given throughout the workouts.  

All in all, I would recommend this DVD for someone that doesn't mind dated looks or bad music. It's extremely effective and I see myself using it in my rotation a bit. As for the length, it can be easily broken up over two days.
