Cathe CrossFire - Thoughts

Cathe's CrossFire is just over 55 minutes in length. This is a metabolic conditioning workout. There's lots of cardio sets and even the weight segments have a cardio feel to them.
The workout breaks down as follows:
Warm up - ~6:30
CrossFire Fitness Blast - ~8:50
Firewalker Tabata - ~4:55
CrossFire Circuit Blast - ~22:45
Stretch - ~ 6:45
You also get a bonus core section which clocks in at ~9:10 and bonus Low Impact Cardio Tabata which clocks in at 4:40

There is quite a bit of equipment used: Firewalker Loop, Dumbbells, Slide and Glide Disc, and tubing. The firewalker loop is a band style loop. Cathe uses it to increase the intensity on the lower body.
During the CrossFire Circuit Blast, Cathe alternates cardio sets with sculpting sets. Between the sets she gives you brief breaks.
During the tabata section, a clock shows up that counts down as you do the exercise. For each tabata that you do, you get 20 seconds of work and 10 second of rest.
Cathe has also brought back the subtitle bar. It introduces each segment. I love this feature. I also love the soundtrack. Reminds of being in a gym with loud pumping music coming over the speakers.
The workout itself is a solid workout. I definitely thought it was challenging as I moved through the workout.

This DVD also comes with lots of premixes - 12 in total.
I also like the set or background scenery. This time Cathe uses what looks like a park filled with trees.
3 & 1/2 stars
