Cathe Friedrich's High Step Challenge |
  Excellent! |
| This is a great interval workout! Admittedly, there isn't a great deal of step aerobics during the cardio portion - mostly done on the floor - but your heart rate gets up there! The toning segments are great; challenging and original moves. You can always count on Cathe to deliver results! - posted by Stephanie on 6/12/2009 |

| Underrated! You Can't Get Any Better Than This On |
| High step challenge is one of Cathe's better works. It is grossly underrated; worth every penny; and gives you fantastice results! Cathe out did herself with this one. High step challenge does not collect any dust on my shelf. Way to go Cathe! - posted by Kathryn on 1/10/2008 |

| Love it |
| I just love this workout and boy time flies by so fast and great variety. It will make you sweat and tone you. Good variety of cardio and weights. Cathe knows how to always get the job done. I just love her and highly recommend this one and all of her others. She will get the results you are wanting if you stay with her and keep at it. - posted by Laci on 10/12/2007 |

| Fun and Challenging Workout |
| This is one of my favorite Cathe workouts. A combination of cardio and weights. The high step is used in 3 cardio sections not in one section as stated by a previous poster. This workout kept my heart rate up throughout the workout. I add extra weight for more of challenge. The time moves quickly during this workout and I love the band work. It's very effective. The ab section at the end is one of my favorites. - posted by Lola on 10/2/2007 |

| Underrated |
| I like this when I want a bit of cardio and weights together. I feel for me this is strenght/cardio/endurance all in one. It is effective and I like it because its that bit different. Does everything in one bang. Modified the side to side jumps. Recommend it. - posted by Luli on 9/22/2007 |

| not really a step workout though |
| I like this workout, and I'm going to keep it, but I'm disappointed that only one of the cardio sections is on the step, and the rest are on the floor. They are also very high impact, and I have to modify a lot of the moves to lower impact. I thought that since this was called "High STEP Challenge" that there would be more step aerobics. CAthe's High Step Circuit IS all step aerobics. . . - posted by Barb on 6/11/2007 |

| I AM IN LOVE |
| This workout is excellent -- easy to follow but TOUGH, great variety, innovative toning sections, Cathe's excellent cuing and energy, I could go on but my shoulders are KILLING me (in a good way) so I have to stop typing. This workout is like a Firm cardio sculpt on steroids!!! The tuck jumps kicked my butt. OK I'll stop going on and on and just end with -- I burned 500 calories and exhausted EVERY muscle -- my new fave workout! - posted by Sam on 2/16/2007 |

| A great workout, but... |
| This workout is great if you want to add a different and challenging workout to your routine. I train five or six days a week, so I need alot of variety in my workouts. The shoulder work is a bit too much in this particular workout though. I am tall with large shoulders to begin with so I skipped about half of the shoulder work. Otherwise this is a good circuit style workout. It is alot like Cathe's bootcamp, which is also excellent. - posted by Elisa on 2/8/2007 |

| A total body challenge for sure! |
| Wow! This workout just flies by its so fun but tough too. Cathe works every muscle from upper body, lower body, core and heart muscle. But what I love about it is that the music is so great! She has other high step workouts but this one is the best because it has great vocal music like the Rolling Stones and Earth Wind and Fire. I started off with the Firm and this is a great workout to try if you want to switch to Cathe because its constantly changing from high step(you can use the Fanny lifter), to low step, to floor aerobics to kickboxing. Then you get all sorts of great leg presses, squats, deadlifts and the list goes on and on with upper body too. And its much tougher than the Firm because CAthe gives much more reps. Even though I don't have a band, I just use dumbbells and it works fine. The cardio sections are very high impact more like interval training. I highly recommend High Step Challenge! - posted by MS on 7/25/2006 |

| A favorite new video |
| I recommend this video. Its one of my first Cathe workouts and its perfect for people looking to combine aerobics and toning into a one hour workout. I've done it 5-6 times and its getting better each time. - posted by Tara D on 3/28/2006 |
