Cathe To The Max - Thoughts

To The Max is 54 minute metabolic workout. The workout is made up of
several different sections that come together to give you a total body workout.
The workout breakdown is:
Warm up - ~5:50
Solid Step - ~7:40
Step Tabata - ~ 5:15
30/20 HiiT - ~ 14:15

Compound Leg Work - ~ 7:00
Core with Upper Body Focus - ~ 7:30
Stretch - ~6:10

There is a bonus Low Impact Slide n Glide Tabata that is 4:50 in length and there is also a bonus Fitness Tabata that is 4:40 in length

The solid step section is not a step routine or a mini combo. It is more a series of moves done in a drill based fashion. In fact, the first part of this section is reminiscence of Low Impact Series Athletic Training.
During any of the Tabata sections you are doing 20 seconds of work and you get 10 seconds of rest. I like the Tabata sections. When I got to the 30/20 HiiT sections where you are doing 30 seconds of work but get 20 seconds of rest, the extra 10 seconds in the HiiT section seemed long to me.

None of the segments in the workout are too long. So therefore the workout really moves. The tempo is quick, but the built in rest of the Tabata and HiiT sections make the workout doable.

Love the soundtrack that Cathe used in this workout. The music is very contemporary.

The equipment you will need for this workout consist of a firewalker loop, Club Step with risers, an assortment of dumbbells, mat and slide n glide discs.

To The Max includes 12 premix workouts.
