Cathe Pure Strength Series Thoughts


Pure Strength is a 3 days split weighted workout
series. The three workouts are: Pure Strength
Legs & Abs, Pure Strength Chest, Shoulders & Triceps, Pure Strength Back, Biceps and Abs.
Legs & Abs is 64 minutes. Chest, Shoulder & Triceps about 41 minutes and Back, Bicep & Abs is about 46 minutes.
I believe this is my second time doing this workouts. (Yep). I just went back and read my old review. I don't really have a whole lot to add, except to emphasize that the workout is fast past with very little rest between the sets.. I am including worksheets this time around of the exercises perform. Click on the image for a larger view.
What I am noticing with working out to parts or splits. There is not a big calorie burn during the workout. This week I got up to around 265 calories burn with the leg workout but didn't even reach 200 calories burn with the two upper body workouts. I think for Chest, Shoulder, & Triceps I burned 198 calories and for Back, Biceps, & Abs I burned 179 calories.
I do know the benefits come later with the added muscle.
I am giving this series 3 stars across the board even though my last review was 3 1/2 stars.

  1. I don't have Cathe's Pure Strength workouts but I do have Muscle Max and the three Gymstyles workouts. I usually do Muscle Max once a week but this morning I did the timesaver Gymstyles Chest and Triceps and the Back, Shoulder and Biceps timesaver. I'm curious to see what her new STS Total Body workout will be like.

  2. Susan, I too am looking forward to STS Total Body.
    I bought all 4.
    The only one I was iffy on was Lower Body Blast.
