Cathe Friedrich's Butts & Guts |
 My favourite all-time Cathe |
| I *LOVE* this dvd. I've had it for about 4 months now and use it regularly. For a long time I was doing it 2 times a week but I've just bought Gym Style Legs and plan to alternate between the two weekly to round my leg/strength program. This workout is SO great, I usually do the entire workout and I've adjusted my weights as I've gotten stronger. I get sweaty every time and there is a cardio component and the ab workout is VERY good. It is butt focused but you work your quads, inner/outer thighs, calves and hamstrings generously, so I consider it a legs workout. For a couple of months I didn't have ankle weights and STILL felt the burn every time and then a month ago I added ankle weights (and for the core component) and it was AWESOME and much harder. Cathe is awesome. My butt is awesome. This is my favourite Cathe video (and I have about 8 of them)!!! - posted by Erica on 1/15/2010 |

| WOW!!! |
| The headline says it all. Totally kicked my butt (and gut) and I loved every minute of it! I would recommend this one to anyone who's looking for one heck of a lower body workout! - posted by Brittany on 12/13/2009 |

| Great Lower Body Workout |
| I have had this a couple of years. Always include in my mix of workouts. Lots of variety to the kinds of leg and ab exercises. I have several of Cathe's workouts. I come back to this one and Muscle Endurance the most. Best results. Most variety so I don't get bored. The extras are really great exercises also. - posted by Lisa on 7/29/2009 |

| Best Lower Body Workout Ever |
| I've had this video for over a year and today was the first time I got up enough guts to use it. I have to say I have never seen a workout like this one. I told my husband I had just been tortured, but in a good way. Hopefully I will be able to walk tomorrow, but I'm not sure. There is no doubt, in my mind, that if you do this a couple of times a week your bottom half will look absolutely amazing. Cathe is the best instructor out there. OUCH!!! - posted by Mary on 6/7/2009 |

| Very good work out |
| This is a great lower body workout,certainly geared towards advanced and an order of magnitude better than STS which costs you 4 times as much. Great variety of exercises with high enough intensity to really burn you. The DVD itself has great features, different mix and match modes so you don't get bored with the same routine. You can choose different sets of workouts every time. Definitely recommend this one ,waaayyy more than STS series. - posted by Megan on 6/4/2009 |

| This is one of my favorites |
| This workout is among the most efficient in my collection. It's tough, but it works. I did Butts & Guts for about a year pre-pregnancy and continued up to my 7th month (with modifications and heart rate monitoring). I ended up having an emergency C-section but thanks to this workout I was pain-free post-surgery within about 18 days and never took pain meds stronger than Tylenol. I'm 40 yrs. old and my doctor could not believe how quickly my abs recovered. My little one is 6 months now and this workout remains a staple in my rotation. Due to time constraints these days, I often add my own upper body sets instead of doing the "crab walk" section with the physioband. That way I hit all the major muscle groups. I also love the way this DVD is set up so I can customize my workout and do certain parts as time (or my energy level!) allows. One final note: The cuing is superb and Cathe really motivates and inspires. - posted by Beth on 4/25/2009 |

| Your Lower Body Doesn't have a Chance! |
| Your lower body doesn't have a chance with this dvd workout! Let me be straightfoward and say that I had this dvd for about a year and never used it! I don't know why! What an idiot! This is a fantastic lower body workout now that I finally used it, which I've just done the floor workout,
first. My lower body has been burning since I used it a couple of days ago! W - posted by Vivian on 4/7/2009 |

| The Workout I Reach for First |
| This is the workout I use when I want to get sore. Unlike other reviewers who seem to have to get through the entire video, I use it over two or three days, sometimes in conjunction with parts of other videos. I like to customize my workout. I have used just the bonus sections with part of another video for lighter days. I have never used the entire video straight through to the end. (I do not have that much time in my day to devote to exercise.) I most often use it for the standing routines. I love that it has chapters so I can pick and choose what I want to do. Whenever I have used this video, I have been somewhat to very sore the next day. I do not tire of Cathe. - posted by Jodi on 4/3/2009 |

 Great legs! |
| I LOVE the standing leg work, which is worth the entire DVD for me. The ab work is ok, not my favorite (prefer Muscle Max abs or Core Max #1). I don't like most of the floor leg work, it's just uncomfortable for me and my back, but 4 stars for the standing leg work--fabulous burn!! - posted by Sandra on 3/26/2009 |
