Cathe Friedrich's Intensity Series: Pyramid Upper & Pyramid Lower Body DVD Review

This was one of the first Cathe DVD's I bought, and it was a great choice.The strength work is tough but doable and you can tailor the workout to your level.I really like the pyramid system, it might seem like a lots of reps, but the sets are fairly short (12 reps light weight, 10 reps medium weight, 8 reps heavy weight,10 reps medium weight, and 12 reps light weight) and you get a brief rest in between.The lower body workout includes leg presses, static lunges, traditional and plie squats, deadlifts and some calf work.There is also a section of lower body floor work using a stability ball which is challenging, if the standing work doesn't burn the floor work is bound to for sure.

The upper body workout uses the same format, exercises include bench presses and pec flies for chest (no pushups yay!), pullovers and double arms rows for back, front, side and rear deltoid lifts for shoulders, french presses and kickbacks for triceps, and traditional and hammer curls for biceps.There is also an abdominal section, again using the stability ball.

This DVD is well chaptered, you can mix and match different segments, plus there are premixes, each workout has an option to just go up the pyramid or just go down the pyramid.There is also a bonus combo which includes segments from both the upper and lower body workout.

Cathe is a tremendous instructor, she demonstrates excellent form, has a great personality and is fun to workout with.She is also very good at music selection, the music she has chosen for this workout is great and is among my favorite in all the workouts I have by her. All in all this is an excellent workout DVD, Cathe's best series in my opinion.Highly recommended.
