Cathe Friedrich: XTrain Cardio Leg Blast



Blast your legs with weights and cardio
This 56 minute leg and cardio workout is part of Cathe's Xtrain Series. You alternate a cardio blast with a leg exercise for 12 rounds. Rounds 1- 6 have floor cardio and Rounds 7 - 12 have step cardio. This more of an endurance workout than a strength one because you aren't using really heavy weights. Your heart rate will be elevated for the entire workout!

Like the other workouts in the Xtrain series, there are lots of premixes, both longer and shorter. The bonus workouts are Core 1 and 2. The challenge workout is Hip Thrusts.

Overall, I enjoyed this workout. It's tough, but it didn't leave me gasping for air. At the end, I felt energized not tired.

What you'll need for this workout:

* Step with 3 risers per side
* Dumbbells; Cathe uses 15 - 25 pound dumbbells
* Dixie cups
*Firewalker band.

Why I enjoyed this workout:

* Cathe tells us what weights she is using. While it is strongly recommended you...
