4 New DVDs with over 70 Workouts

The Body Blast Series

At Cathe dot Com we take pride in being a leader in fitness DVD production and technology. We were one of the first companies to produce a fitness DVD and now have over 40 titles on DVD - more than anyone else!

Yet, it is not the quantity of our DVDs that we take the most pride in, it’s the quality of our product. Our DVDs cost ten times more to create than nearly any other DVDs on the market today. Our DVDs are not cheap, but when you compare all the added features and premixes of our DVDs, we think you will agree that Cathe DVDs are not only the best buy on the market today...but also the best DVDs period!

Our new Body Blast DVDs are by far our most technologically advanced DVDs we have ever produced. Cathe’s 6 new workouts have been put on 3 dual layered Disc. Each DVD contains 2 workouts and over 20 Quick Select Premixes ™ giving you almost unlimited choices. We ‘ve even made a fourth DVD, Called the Timesaver, from many of the Body Blast workouts for days when you want a total body workout, but are running short on time.

The Workout Blender ™ is a brand new feature that we are offering for the fist time and will allow you to select and play different sections of the DVD in any order you like without having to input a chapter or title point.

Also, for the first time we are offering three different ways for you to listen to our new DVDs. You can choose from: #1 Normal mix ( This is the same audio mix you would hear if you had purchased the video), #2 Vocals Only (You will only hear Cathes voice and very little music), #3 Music Louder (We’ve changed the audio mix of this selection to emphasize music over vocals. You will still hear both vocals and music, but the music will be louder than normal and vocals will be softer than usual.

The Body Blast (5 Day Rotation)  Timesaver DVD

Step Blast:
Step Blast is a 55 minute high intensity step workout which features new and exciting choreography as well as a fun and motivating soundtrack.
The format is as follows: A warm up, three step segments, a step blast challenge, and a cool down/stretch.

The soundtrack is as follows:
Warm Up (7 min)...........Whats Up
Step segment #1,2,3 ( 35 min):
I wanna be your lover
Video killed the radio star
Feeling Good
Ministry of funk 1999
Fantisy
Disco Fans
Ready Set Go
Step Blast Challenge (13 min):
I'm Glad
Paint It Black (extended version)
Cool Down/stretch (5 min)........Fast Car

After the warm up, you will learn three separate step routines. Each routine will be taught and then its finished product will be performed a couple of times. After they are all taught you will be ready to take the Step Blast challenge in which you will put all of the finished products of each combo together and then follow it up with an intensity blast. You will repeat this cycle three times. Here is the Step Blast Challenge breakdown:

Combo #1's finished product on the right and left side Combo#2's finished product on the right and left side Combo #3's finished product on the right and left side INTENSITY BLAST #1 (similar in style and intensity to IMAX 2 blasts)

Combo #1's finished product on the right and left side Combo#2's finished product on the right and left side Combo #3's finished product on the right and left side INTENSITY BLAST #2 (similar in style and intensity to IMAX 2 blasts)

Combo #1's finished product on the right and left side Combo#2's finished product on the right and left side Combo #3's finished product on the right and left side INTENSITY BLAST #3 (similar in style and intensity to IMAX 2 blasts) After this you will enjoy a nice stretch!

Equipment needed: a step bench

Step Jump & Pump:
Step, Pump, & Jump is a 73 minute workout that keeps you energized from start to finish. After your warm up, you'll do a 16 minute step routine that is packed with choreography (some new, some familiar). Each of the songs in this segment has it own unique routine that fits to the music. As soon as it is finished, you'll slide the step out of the way and begin your hi/lo circuit workout. This segment is 40 minutes long. You'll do 5 minutes of easy-to-follow hi/lo followed by 5 minutes of thorough weight training. I've chosen to keep the cardio simple, yet upbeat and intense, since it is short and therefore not much time to get involved in a complex routine. The very last cardio segment, however, is mostly all low impact (with a bit of a dance flair) as you begin to bring the heart rate down. After the 40 minute circuit, you'll conclude your workout with abs (no equipment needed) and a stretch.
Here is a breakdown of the workout in its entirety along with the accompanying song list:
Warm up....Abracadabra

Step:
Combo 1...Instrumental
Combo 2....Kung Fu Fighting
Combo 3....Golden Eye
Combo 4....Spin Me Round

Kick Punch & Crunch:
This workout is 68 minutes long. It starts with a warm up of 7 minutes and gradually moves into a faster paced warm up which I refer to as intermediate intensity (since it really starts to pick up the intensity toward the end of it). After the 13 minute mark, you will really kick it up to high intensity levels for another 20 to 25 minutes. During this time you will be doing kickbox conditioning drills which are put in an interval style format of pushing hard, recovering briefly and pushing hard again. This segment is mostly high impact, however, there are also some high intensity low impact drills included (the last drill, one of the hardest, is HIGH intensity, LOW impact, at its best,....Hammer Punch with a drop lunge into a Knee Smash....24 per side, yikes). After this segment, you are good and fried, however, the show must go on

You/we will then do three punching and kicking combinations. Each one consists of a punching combination (ex: double jab high, double jab low, a triple jab/cross/jab and then a cross punch with hesitation), followed by a kicking combination (ex: knee chamber, into roundhouse kick, into drop squat back, into jump roundhouse kick forward). This segment also keeps the heart rate up because each combination features jump kicks. Now we move on to ab work on the stability ball. We will do crunches, wood chops with weight (optional), and pikes with knee rolls. Finally, its time to enjoy a nice relaxing stretch with a soothing Asian melody. By the way, the other parts of the soundtrack are all instrumental with a strong downbeat to suit the mood of the movement. I brought the ever so motivating song "I WANNA ROCK" into this workout and you will hear it on your first punck/kick combination. Get ready to SWEAT!!!!!

Equipment needed: stability ball

Legs & Glutes:
Legs and Glutes is a 51 minute comprehensive lower body workout that incorporates traditional and non-traditional exercises as well as standing and floor exercises to strengthen and shape the leg and glute area.

Be ready to get set and go as there is very little rest time between the exercises. This is definitely one to watch ahead of time and know what you'll need to do have and handy.

Push & Pull:
Push Pull is a 45 minute total body workout which features many new and refreshing exercises to keep your muscles stimulated in new ways. The focus of this workout is to promote muscle balance as well as strength and endurance gains through exercise variety and balance challenges. We use the stability ball quite a bit in this workout to create this added balance challenge which in turn promotes even greater muscle recruitment. It's important to point out that when using a stability ball you should use a lighter weight than you typically would for a given exercise since the unstable environment makes the muscles work harder to stabilize. As your body gets acclimated this "wobbly" environment you'll find that you are able to gradually increase your weights again.

The soundtrack to this workout is filled with soft rock classics. Here is a list of the songs:

Walking In Memphis
Freedom
Our Friends Are Electric
Breakfast at Tiffany's
In The Living Years
Dreams
Sleeping Sattelite
This ain't a love song
Missing

Keep in mind that for muscle balance we are doing one muscle group then the opposing muscle group. In most cases this is anterior (front) and posterior (back) but when it comes to shoulders we have both anterior (front delt) and posterior (rear delt) as well as superior (mid/top delt) and inferior (lats) which are directly beneath them.

The exercises for Push Pull are as follows:

Barbell Squats (legs with focus on quads)
Deadlifts (legs with focus on glutes/hamstrings)
Static lunge with heel lifted (legs with focus on quads)
Leg Press (legs with focus on glutes/hamstrings)
Bench press on ball (chest)
Deadrows (back)
flys on ball (chest)
Y's on ball (thats the Push Pull picture where we had our arms going back with thumbs up...for upper back)
Inverted shoulder press on high step (top/mid delt)
One arm row (back/lats which are beneath shoulders)
Front raise on ball (front shoulder)
Rear delt raise on ball (back shoulder)
Bicep curls with ball (biceps)
Slow Dips/immediately to kickbacks (tricep)
Outer thigh on ball
Inner thigh with ball
Superman on ball (low back)
Crunches with ball (abdominals)
Calve raises
Tibialis Anterior w/ball (shins)
Full Body Stretch

You may initially find this workout to be easier since you are learning to make adjustments for the new variety, but once you have worked through this, form and concentration is of the utmost importance for optimal muscle recruitment. Feel free to add sets to any of the exercises for an even greater challenge.The DVD version will offer premixes with multiple set options.

Equipment needed: a High Step, barbell, various weighted dumbbells, and a stability ball.

Supersets: circuit training:
 Supersets is a unique 53 minute full body weight training program that incorporates a series of exercises that are grouped by varying body parts and performed in rounds. While this may not be the traditional association that many are used to with supersetting, superset training is also classified as doing two or more exercises at a given time with little or no rest between exercises (or sets).

Round One, Group A, consists of the following body part and exercise:

Legs...........barbell squats
Legs/Back...barbell deadlifts
Chest..........barbell bench press
Shoulders....dumbbell front/side raise on stability ball
Core............wood chops on the stability ball

Round One, Group B, repeates the body parts but uses different exercises:

Legs...........barbell plie' squats
Back...........dumbbell pullovers on the stability ball
Chest..........dumbbell incline fly on stability ball
Shoulders....dumbbell rotator cuff side raises on stability ball
Core...........roll outs on the stability ball (no weight)

Round Two, Group A, consists of the following body parts and exercises:

Legs..........dumbell one leg squat
Shoulders...dumbbell seated overhead press
Biceps........barbell preacher curls on the stability ball
Triceps.......dumbbell extensions on the stability ball
Core...........bike maneuver

Round Two, Group B, repeats the body parts but uses different exercises:

Legs..........explosive lunges (no equipment)
Shoulders...dumbbell rear and front delt raises prone on stability ball
Biceps........dumbbell concentration curls on the stability ball
Triceps.......seesaw tricep push ups (no weights)
Core...........side oblique crunches on the stability ball
Because the specific exercises themselves only do one set without repeating, you are encouraged to go as heavy as you can with good form. Of course the first few workouts will take some practice since you will not know exactly what weight will bring you to fatigue by the end of the set. Many exercises also contain a non-traditional set (ie: up 4 down 4, low ends, lunge forward lunge back then jump for 4 etc.)

The music is fun and recognizable. Here is a list of the songs:

On and On
Somewhere, Somehow
I'm Glad
Don't you just know
Whats Up
Golden Eye
You are not alone
Unbreak My Heart
This ain't no love song
Eternal Flame

Equipment needed:  a step bench, barbell, various weighted dumbbells, stability ball.
