Cathe Friedrich's Drill Max |
    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 |

    My favorite workout |
| I'm glad the premixes are there as an option, but I've never used them because I don't want to miss anything. Well, actually, I really dislike stepping so during the step routine in the warm-up and in one of intervals I just freestyle, which is fine with me. Instead of wall squats I sit with my back against the wall, my knees bent at 90 degrees, ten pound dumbbells on my lap, using Cathe's count to either hold or raise one leg up. Best quad burn ever. - posted by Rebecca on 8/5/2008 |

    Wonderful in every way! |
| Cathe really is great. I do a lot of Firms, and have recently been doing workouts with other instructors, and I haven't found one of Cathe's workouts yet that I didn't like. This is challenging! The cardio in the drills is athletic, fun, and hard. I like that this also has other fitness aspects that I sometimes forget about like agility. The premixes are awesome! If you are concerned about paying so much for Cathe's DVDs, just know that you usually get at least 4 premixes with totally different workouts. On Drill Max, you get the full circuit, two all cardio blasts, one lower body circuit, one upper body circuit, and a total body sculpt! This one is a keeper. - posted by Nyx on 6/30/2008 |

    Easy to make low-impact |
| This tape is excellent- Though I gave it 5 stars - the high impact is very high impact, but you can easily make it low impact, and modify to your needs & level (I am intermediate) Cathe never fails to make you hate and love her at the same time!! I did the entire program and it felt like a half hour- constantly switching it up. - posted by Christine on 6/7/2008 |

    Love doing this video! |
| Just the thought of doing this one gets me energized. Great variety and a great all around work out. Only missing the abs, but Cathe uses your core throughout the workout. - posted by Jeannine on 3/15/2008 |

    Functional fitness! |
| The best that I've tried in this series. I like getting off the step for a change of pace and both the cardio and weights are hard core. Part of the workout does take a lot of space, but things like grapevines off both sides take up more space, imo. - posted by Gretchen on 3/7/2008 |

    Enjoyable |
| I like Drill Max. I know some people are complaining about the rebounding and space issues, but if I can adjust (I live in a college apartment with less than 8 feet of space to "rebound") I think anyone can. She even states jump HIGHER rather than FARTHER is you don't have the space available. Overall I enjoyed the DVD. In the beginning the cardio seemes like nothing because you take breaks with the weight segments. Unforutnately, your muscle begin to fatigue and the cardio gets harder. Although my favorite from this series as far as intervals go is still Body Max 2, this comes in a close 2nd - posted by Lynette on 1/23/2008 |

    Creative and Challenging Workout |
| This workout mixes floor and step and throws in some stability ball moves to keep things interesting. After each cardio there is a toning section but the pace never lets up so you keep your heart rate up the whole time. I gave it a four because there isn't an ab section, which seems odd since this is otherwise a total body workout. Cathe's instruction is great. - posted by julie on 12/14/2007 |

    The most FUN Cathe workout |
| This workout is the most fun workout I've ever done! There is just sooooo much variety that its impossible to get bored not to mention the awesome music that just keeps the energy levels up and going. The best thing about this workout is that it combines cardio and resistance together in the one exercise move. I found that this workout gave me better results than muscle max, kick max, imax and all her other Hard Core series dvds. - posted by Thet-Htar Saw on 11/4/2007 |
