Full Backcover Description
Butts & Guts is the ultimate lower-body workout that puts the greatest focus where it’s needed most: on the glute and core region. If you’re looking for results delivered in a fun new way, then you’ll love this workout. Not only is it very comprehensive, but it has a great mix of old and new exercises—effectively sequenced—to keep the fat burning and muscles responding. A bonus stability ball core routine has been included for added variety and effectiveness.
The equipment needed for this workout is a stability ball, a high step, light dumbbells, a weighted barbell, ankle weights and a resistance band.
DVD has programmable chapters and premixed alternate workouts.

Certified instructor description:
The toughest lower-body/abs program ever. It features a huge variety of exercises and equipment (if this doesn't give you shapely legs and “six pack” abs, nothing will). Cathe uses every possible variation of proven body-sculpting moves (e.g. squats: regular, pulsing, one-legged, weighted). You'll begin with standing routines focused on your glutes (large, hard-to-work muscles that Cathe manages to totally fatigue). Then it's classic floorwork like lying inner leg lifts, hydrants and side leg lifts on a stability ball. Finally, on to the abwork that integrates hand and ankle weights to maximize intensity (for more abwork, there's a bonus 15-minute stability ball ab program). Also has shorter “premixed” workouts. Some vocal music. Requires 3 to 15 lb. dumbbells, ankle weights, a barbell, stability ball, 6-foot resistance band and a 14inch high step. ©2006.
