After acquiring and doing several Firm workouts for years, I was ready to take it up a notch. So off I went to Video Fitness to research some advanced workouts. The consensus was that Cathe Friedrich was my girl. Cathe began creating exercise videos over twenty years ago. She has always been at the leading edge of fitness and the cutting edge of technology.
Now the next question was which workout. Well, after doing extensive research it seemed I was hard pressed to find any negative reviews for Ms Friedrich. So, my first ever purchase included 17 of her workouts. Yes, you read that right...17. I know, I know you're thinking I'm crazy. What you have to understand is, at the time, Cathe was already producing her workouts on DVDs (and I am usually on the trailing edge of technology) and I was still using VHS and Cathe was offering mass quantity discounts on her VHS stock. Lucky for me, Cathe lived to up to all the hype and I clicked with her teaching style and personality immediately. I have since replaced many of those workouts with DVDs.
Cathe's extensive library consists of step workouts, Hi/Lo, Kickboxing, Strength Training, Circuit workouts, Core workouts and most recently MMA workouts. Recently, she also began to introduce downloadable workouts. These workouts can be downloaded to your computer and synched up to your iPod. If you are looking for an advanced workout, I encourage you to give her a try. She also has an array of workouts for intermediate and beginner exercisers.
Recently Cathe has partnered with Eggland's Best. This partnership has allowed her to take road trips across the U.S. She kicked off her tour in New York, and has already been to Daytona, San Diego and will be having her annual road trip at her home gym in New Jersey at the end of July. Other destinations, including Chicago, are on the list and you can be sure I will be there to meet one of the fitness icons who have had a profound effect on my fitness journey.
