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

HiiT Fusio n from Elevated! Lift, Move & Restore 2 is a 29-minute cardio focus workout.  There are six rounds of HiiT action. In each round you have HiiT exercise followed by a weighted-core  exercise.  This is a short get in and get out workout that includes a warmup and cool down  The HiiT moves range from high intensity high impact to high energy low impact exercises.  Cathe does offer modification tips on some exercises.   See spreadsheet for a list of exercises. 3 & 1/4 stars

Elevated Total Body is a 50 minute workout that uses a variety of compound exercises to work the total body.  Cathe uses body weight and dumbbells in the various moves.  When using dumbbells sometimes you will use only one dumbbell, and sometimes you will use two exercises.  Cathe offers weigh selection throughout and she shows modifications when appropriate. 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

Elevated Lower Body from Lift, Move, & Restore 2   Cathe has release her new series called Elevated.  It is an 11 workout series that you can purchase on DVD, download or access through her On-Demand Act. Elevated Lower Body is a 52 minute workouts. In this workout, Cathe uses a high step, dumbbells and fabric loop to work the lower body.  There is less rest between sets and Cathe explains a little less than in the LM&R Functional Lower Body workout.  Cathe does take brief water breaks throughout.  Cathe gives you a range of weights to use for each exercise; telling you a selection if you are going light or if you are going heavy. I like this workout. 3 & 3/4 stars

 January 2026 Monthly Workouts And the Winter Cut First week and 1/2, was dedicated to Pilates Power Gym workouts.  I have had this machine and these workouts - probably 12 years now, I have never done them or really used the machine.  This year I have decided to use the machine much more.  Winter cut starts Sunday January 11 and goes to Saturday January 31.  It is a 21-Day (3-Week) cut. My goal will be to lose 5 pounds during the three week cut. I will be doing M4:3 for my eating protocol.  M stands for modified. There will be four up days and three down days per week during this cut. For fasting, I will do IF and will fast 16 to 18 hours per day during the cut. Workouts Sunday - Cardio Coach Treadmill workouts Monday - Cathe PHA workouts Tuesday - Cathe Boot Camp workouts Wednesday - Cathe Total Body workouts Thursday - Les Mills Combat workouts Friday - Ilaria's BodyStrike workouts Saturday- Cathe Mobility workouts

Stamina clocks in at around 27 minutes.  For this workout, Autumn uses just one weight selection throughout the whole workout. So there is no changing in and out the bands. Other than the selected band, Autumn uses the core ball in the first two exercises. In this workout, there is a foot block, an upper block and a core block. Autumn performs the exercises on one side of the body and then she repeats the same exercises on the other side of the body. There is a bonus exercise at the end.   This workout does include and warmup and cool down. 3 & 1/2 stars  

 Glutes & Guns clocks in just under 40 minutes. The workout's primary focus is exercises that target the glutes and biceps.  The glute exercises target hamstrings and quads as well, but the upper body exercises are exclusively bicep based.  The weight is moderate and the reps are between 12 and 16 reps.  3 stars

 Cathe Lift, Move, & Restore 2 Elevated! Total Body Metabolic Strength is a 40 minute total body workout. In this workout, Cathe takes  you through a series of isolated, compound, and body weight movement.  This is a moderate to heavy weight workout and you are doing on average 10-reps. Cathe offers suggested weight for each of the exercises that use weights.  The warm up and cool down is about 10-minutes of the workouts combine, so the main workout is around 30-minutes. Cathe does use a set of dumbbells  in the warm up. 3 & 3/4 stars

Lift, Move & Restore 2 Elevated! Heavy Weight Workouts. I usually do not care for split upper body workout, but I did not mind the two in this series. There are a total of four heavy weight workouts in the LMR2 Elevated! series. Three of them are: Upper Body Strength Chest, Triceps & Shoulders   (CTS) Lower Body Strength Upper Body Strength Back, Biceps & Shoulders (BBS) Cathe offers suggested weights in all three of the workouts. Many times, I thought the pace was quite quick for a heavy weight workout. Cathe does tell you to slow down if you find that to be the case. In Chest, Triceps & Shoulders, the shoulder work is focus on the upper and front of the shoulders. In Back, Biceps & Shoulders, the shoulder work was focus on the back. A variety of equipment is used throughout. The Lower Body workout uses the loop boss band.  BBS uses a small loop band and the pull up bar.  All workouts used a ranged of dumbbells. Upper Strength CTS - 3&1/2 stars L...

Track Pilates Level 2 workouts. Workouts for level 2 are: Track Pilates Total Body 1 Track Pilates Lower Body & Core 2 Track Pilates Upper Body & Core 2 Track Pilates Synergy Very similar to the first group of workouts but slightly more challenging.  As in level 1, Autumn delivers motivational tips throughout each workouts.  

  Track Pilates is a 9-workout system based on the Pilates Reformer.  Autumn developed a 'track' system that can be attached to any door or wall.  I have mine attached to a wall. Autumn has the program broken down into level 1 workouts and level 2. This week I did the Level 1 workouts. Which included: Track Pilates Total Body 1 Track Pilates Lower Body & Core 1 Track Pilates Upper Body & Core 1 Track Pilates Sweat Autumn offers motivational tips throughout each of the workouts.  There is no music. Just Autumn talking.  And Autumn is the only cast member. The bands/cords are cumbersome to deal with at times because you are changing them in and out quite a bit.  Autumn just tells you to get over and get used to it.  Within each workouts, Autumns leads you through blocks.  You will do specific exercises within a block before moving on to the next block. Overall I like the Track Pilates workouts, especially the length.  One issue I had w...
