Cathe Friedrich's Hardcore Series: Gym Style Legs DVD Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Cathe Friedrich has come up with quite a leg workout here, approximately 67 minutes long, she will fry your lower half with standing and floorwork exercises.A barbell, assorted dumbells, step or stool, a resistance band and a stability ball are the equipment used in this workout.

You start with a well needed warmup, then proceed into the standing portion of the workout.You will start with barbell squats, 3 sets with the third set adding bonus reps.Next you will go into a series of forward and reverse lunges, Cathe goes pretty light on the weights compared to other workouts I have seen of hers, but there are plenty of pulsing reps which will really fry your legs.Following this are plie squats, again using fairly light weights but more pulsing reps which will fry even more.Then you will see a leg press using a resistance band rather than dumbells, which is a nice variation but will get your legs good.Finishing out the set are deadlifts, including an advanced but optional variation using a step for the second set, and a killer set of slow motion lunges.Cathe only uses 5 pound weights but they are slow and torturous, I am lucky if I can complete the set without stopping.Finally you will complete the standing segment with some tough calf work.

The floorwork segment is even harder, if that's possible.She will toast your legs even more with a variety of floorwork exercises using a stability ball and resistance band.She hits it all, inner and outer thighs, hamstrings and glutes.I have only done the floorwork segment once on it's own as I am usually too spent after the standing section to go on, but it's certainly killer in it's own right, very tough.

Overall a fantastic lower body workout that will work your legs to the max.Anyone looking for a lower body challenge will find it here, if not in the standing work, the floorwork for sure.There are also premixes with shorter options if one chooses.4 and a half stars for this one.
