Time graph for Cathe Friedrich's Drill Max
An aero/tone “interval” workout that varies the exercises, but not the intensity — this super-tough program just never slows down. Cathe has added extra variety to her usual repertoire; she’s included functional fitness, agility training and balance routines. You get six circuits, each with three segments — step aerobics, standing toning and floorwork. The cardio ranges from classic step to leaping moves to football drills (many need a large floor area but Cathe won’t let you slack off “not enough space, then take it higher!”). The toning has lots of equipment and movement variety, from pulsing squats and “dive bomber” push-ups to “fire walkers” and against-the-wall stability ball routines. Includes shorter “premixed” workouts. Some vocal music. Requires 3 to 15 lb. dumbbells, a barbell, stability ball and a 6-foot resistance band. ©2006. DVD has: 6 premixes (39 to 64-min. alternate workouts), Chapter menus.

Cathe Friedrich's Drill Max

Fun but tough!
I did this one for the first time today. I did preview the sections first. The variety of moves is great, and I especially like how she incorporates the stability ball into some of the drills. I found the push-up variations very tough, but that is my weakness! A great workout but also a lot of fun! - posted by Gretchen on 6/20/2009
Absolutely Love This One!!!!!!!!!!
5 stars baby!!! I love this, its cardio and challenging my muscles at the same time. I have been doing this one for about six months now, and wow, my body has really changed, I have a butt now..........and sculpted arms...!!!!! I'm definitely in the best shape of my life thanx to this workout, it changed me forever. Plus, the music is awesome! I always put it on the loud music option and jam it, its really motivating. Love Cathe, love this workout, and definitely recommend it to anyone that wants to get in shape! - posted by Jess on 5/4/2009
I DON'T SMOKE BUT AFTER THIS ONE I MIGHT BE
Girl you should be ashamed...you out did yourself on this one - I'm huffing & puffing all the way to the end - I know it's good when I'm cursing at the end of it...warning you need to be in tip top shape to hang with Drill Max or you can do Drill Max & try to get into tip top shape like I'm doing - have not mastered it yet but I'm going to try, in the mean time where is my Virginia Slims - posted by DAPHNE on 4/30/2009
Get ready to sweat!
Thanks to Cathe DVDs I have canceled my gym membership and loving the $$ I am saving by not seeing a personal trainer! Cathe is my personal trainer now! I have her strength training workouts but thought I would add a cardio one to my collection. Love it! Plan on purchasing the bootcamp one next! - posted by julie on 3/19/2009
Very tough!
I love all of Cathe's stuff, so I may be biased, but this workout is AWESOME. It has a little bit of everything, and it kicks my rear every time. It's a must for any advanced exerciser!! - posted by Megan on 3/14/2009
Looking for tough Cardio? Ultra Cardio Mix is EXCELLENT!
I am an advanced exerciser but never cared much for Cathe's workouts because I found them boring. Two years ago I purchased 5 Cathe workouts based on the reviews on this site and after trying a few I felt that Cathe and I just did not "click". Fast forward to today. I was looking for some tough, advanced cardio and went to the forum to do a search. Drill Max was mentioned several times, specifically the Ultra Cardio Mix (63 minutes). It just so happens that Drill Max was one of the original 5 workouts that I purchased 2 years ago and had never opened! So I did it this morning and LOVED it! It is tough, varied, athletic and the time just flies by. I just love this site. I learn so much from fellow home exercisers. Buy this dvd if you want a hard cardio workout that keeps your heartrate up. I burned 457 calories in 63 minutes (I am 5'4", 130 lbs.). I am now a lot more open to trying Cathe again. - posted by Lindy on 2/21/2009
the boot camp i've been looking for!!!
This expertly combines intense cardio with fast-paced and challenging sculpting stuff. The pace hardly ever slows down so I feel like I'm doing all cardio (what I like to do!) even though I'm doing shoulder presses and lunges and curls (things I usually hate to do). It's really fun, it goes by really fast, and I feel like Wonder Woman after those dive bomber push-ups. My favorite Cathe workout so far! - posted by annie g on 1/19/2009
Good workout
Overall, this is a good cardio workout. The first cardio raises your heart rate pretty quickly. I didn't particularly like the upperbody work. It was a little boring and lowered my heart rate. I do like the cardio/lower body premix. That was a great workout. I don't like the stability ball and found substitutions. This is a good workout, but not in love with it. - posted by Cam on 1/2/2009
Have the paramedics on standby
This work out is the bomb! My only complaint is I wish there was a targeted ab section at the end. However, you still to get a great core workout with all the variety in this one. This is unlike anything I've done before. The circuits are so fun! Never get bored with this workout. It does require a lot of room, but that's not a problem here. Definately an advanced program. Do this regularly and get in the best shape of your life! - posted by Loretta on 11/2/2008
Great Workout!
Get This Workout!! If you want a total body burn, and have 1 hour to spare, this is definately for you. I love the cycles, because your heart rate goes up and then down just enough to refresh you for the next cardio cycle. You dont even realize you have done an hour of fat blasting cardio at the end. she really burns your legs out too, and the push ups are amazing. Definately a challenge..........Definately recommended! - posted by **Jess** on 8/19/2008

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.
sample time graph
Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
sample time graph
Premixes
X
These are alternate workouts created by the manufacturer. They use the same content as the main program (i.e. the very same video footage). But the sections are re-edited into pre-made alternative workouts that you select from a menu. These are often condensed versions of the main workout.
Chapter menus
X
You can play only the individual workout segments you want by picking them off a chapter menu (one at a time).
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Step aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The step aerobics segments involve stepping up and down on a platform. The moves range from simple stepping to more choreographed exercises. These segments require a step bench platform. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
