Certified instructor description: Superbly cued, it’s the toughest kickbox program ever. You get three distinct segments — do any segment for a targeted workout or all three for an “extreme challenge.” You’ll start with a well-sequenced, well-choreographed cycle of classic kickboxing moves (e.g. jabs and punches, kicks and shuffles). That’s followed by high-impact aerobic/anaerobic plyometrics (e.g. jumping jacks, air jacks, tuck jacks — Cathe seems to spend more time in the air than on the ground). Finally, you’ll totally fatigue those tired leg muscles with a series of kickbox toning exercises. The DVD’s “premix” feature also lets you do pre-selected, shorter versions of the workout. ©2005. DVD has:
4 premixes (48 to 58-min. alternate workouts),
Chapter menus.

    good sweat |
| this workout does get you sweating- though I did not enjoy this one as much as I thought I would- seamed a bit choppy- I wish there was more kickbox combinations included in the video- the blast section does get your heart pumping though- I really enjoy Cathes 4 day split kick box routine on that dvd- it is one of my favorites- though this one does not rank as good as that one in my opinion. Overall it is a good workout & you will work up a sweat. - posted by donna on 12/16/2011 |

    Good overall workout |
| This workout is less intense than some of Cathe's others, certainly the kickboxing section would be intermediate level, with the cardio blasts raising the heart rate more effectively. However it really does work the core muscles better than I would have thought and the leg section as previous reviewers have said is tough and effective. Overall I would rate this as inter/advanced level. I didn't burn a huge amount of calories doing this workout but I felt it to be effective and enjoyable and a good addition to my (extensive)library. - posted by Sylvia on 7/22/2011 |

    Lower Body Burn! |
| Kickboxing segment is not quite as varied as "Kick, Punch & Crunch," but I enjoyed the different focus -- intense workout for thighs, hips, glutes, whereas "Kick, Punch & Crunch" focuses more on core work. The legwork after the kickbox is very challenging. Great job as always, Cathe! - posted by Tina on 7/8/2011 |

    Great and tough. |
| This was a surprise for me. My first Cathe video and I am glad, because it was doable and challenging at the same time. I think the step or high max might be harder. I have those, but started with this one. The cardio blasts are crazy! At first I just watched those, but now do my best to at least try. I don't do it like Cathe, but I do get a great high intensity workout with my efforts to keep jumping and moving throughout the blasts. I can do some of it and have a goal to work toward. I am very pleased with this workout, because it is not too choreographed, so I can keep my heart rate high right from the first try. It is just choreographed enough to be interesting and the intensity is good and it is about 50 minutes of cardio without the toning at the end, which I don't do. I needed to lose my baby weight and this workout is the first one hard enough to help me there. I think I will finally be able to lose that last ten pounds. Love it. - posted by Li on 6/18/2011 |

    A Great Workout |
| I just did this workout for the first time and was very impressed. I've never done any of Cathe's DVDs before but I really like her style. I am not an athletic (or coordinated) person by nature but I was able to follow her cuing and do the moves. Don't get me wrong though, this was intense! I was pouring sweat by the time I was done and my muscles are sore. I love the premixes and the ability to create your own workout by mixing the chapters. I think it will take me a while before I become bored with this one! - posted by Nicole on 3/23/2011 |

    Decent |
| This is a decent workout when you first get it and do it but as time goes on I became bored with it .. the blast challenge segment is great it's worth it for that. I add that to my cardio days as a bonus. - posted by Karen on 3/7/2011 |

    Great sweat |
| This is a great workout! I love kickboxing and this one is a really good workout. I added weighted gloves and felt it in my arms and back. - posted by Ann on 3/3/2011 |

    Great workout! |
| The first part of this workout was a nice variation of Cathe's other videos. The second part was truly a challenge, but worth it!! Truly a tough workout! - posted by MaryAnne on 2/17/2011 |

    Great kickboxing video |
| I have quite a few kickboxing videos, and I absolutely love this one. I'm sure it's been broken down before, but what I really appreciate about it is that all the aerobic segments together are about an hour, which is how much time I have to spend in the morning on a video. The leg conditioning drills aren't aerobic, so I can do them later at night, and don't have to shower afterwords. I like her pre-mixes also - Cathe always does a great job with the technology of her workouts. It's tough and fun! - posted by Pam on 2/10/2011 |

    Great Workout |
| This video was a good workout. Choreography was interesting but not too complex. I really like how she breaks up the DVD into different intervals. It keeps it interesting. My first time with Cathe and I'm looking forward to purchasing more of her DVD's. - posted by Kris Chionh on 2/4/2011 |
