April 2026 I went on a Norwegian Cruise to the Bahamas. And the last two days I have been sick.  I was planning on doing KCM 30MTF Strong & Lean workouts but that did not happen. For the rest of the month. I will do a week of Cathe's Lift, Move & Restore Functional Fitness workouts.  I will do a week of Cathe's Lift, Move, & Restore 2 Elevated workouts.  Last week will be Pilates Power Gym workouts that I have not done yet. I have interspersed some of the older Zumba workouts in.  

Kickbox Fusion from Elevated! Lift, Move, & Restore 2 is a 41 minute workout. In this workout, Cathe, alternates kickbox cardio drills with kickbox combo routines. There are three cardio drills and two combo routines that you perform twice through switching lead sides. Cathe wears boxing gloves throughout except for the cool down.  The combos and drills were easy to follow.  Cathe shows modification throughout the workout, and she gives you water  breaks.    3 & 1/2 stars

Cathe Lift, Move, & Restore 2 Elevated Upper Body Elevated Upper Body clocks in at just over 48 minutes. After a thorough resistance cord warm up, Cathe take you through a series of upper body core inspired exercises.  There were several exercises where you felt your core working as well as the upper body muscle group.  While the resistance cord was used in the warm up, the main part of the workout mainly used dumbbells and body weight. Sometimes, you were working with just a single dumbbell. The rep count range was between 8 and 24 reps. Cathe gave weight recommendations as she moved through each exercises and she gave her typical tips and encouragement. 3 & 3/4 stars
