Cathe Friedrich's Low Max DVD

Entirely low-impact but still ultra-challenging, it features seven aerobic/anaerobic cycles. You'll get Cathe's excellent cuing and legendary intensity without her usual higher-impact jumps. The five-minute aerobic segments are taught add-on style; they use all sides of the step and include a variety of arm and leg combinations. The three-minute “blasts” use very basic choreography; they get their intensity from the rapid pace and low-to-the-ground body positions (e.g. fast squats and lunges, so your legs get a great “toning” workout too).
This DVD also lets you select shorter versions of the workout (e.g. one “premix” just plays the seven “blast” segments without the other parts of the cycle). ©2005.

Low Max is a High-Intensity, Low-Impact workout designed to burn body fat, increase cardio conditioning and endurance (and even shape and define the muscles of the lower body). The workout begins with a warm-up and is followed by low-impact step combos alternated with low-impact intensity blasts. A stretch completes the workout.

The combos are broken down with just enough learning curve so that they do not become overly repetitive for future workouts. Do this workout one to two times per week in addition to your other cardio workouts for best results.

DVD has chapters and premixed alternate workouts.
