All of the step combos are approximately 5 minutes in length and all of the intensity blasts are approximately 3 minutes in length. The combos are broken down with just enough learning curve so that they do not become overly repetitive for future workouts. This energetic and fun workout will keep your adrenaline pumping and your body burning fast and calories even after the workout is completed. Low Max may be low impact, but it's definitely not low intensity!
5.0 out of 5 stars Intensity and sweat!

This review is from: Cathe Friedrich's Low Max DVD (Hardcore Series) (DVD)
Finally, I was able to try one of Cathe Friedrich's new DVDs. Her "Low Max" workout is intense, but fun. I really enjoyed it and burned a TON of calories in the process.
This workout is mostly a low impact step routine with intervals of floor toning, but it isn't easy by any means. I don't recommend it for beginners or anyone with two left feet! The music is great, but the fast tempo and intense pace will frustrate those new to step aerobics. Cathe mixes a few dance moves, like the mambo and the chacha, so the choreography may require some amount of practice. Still, if you're up for the challenge and looking to workup a SERIOUS sweat, this DVD is for you.
I plan to order more DVDs from Cathe in the future. She does a good job of cuing and looks great!
