Burn and Build Details and Review

Burn and Build , just released in 2011, is the latest workout from renowned fitness trainer Paul Katami. Burn and Build delivers a total body workout that will test your cardiovascular capacity and muscular endurance. With over two hours of calorie-burning footage, the workout is made up of blocks that incorporate drills, cardio and strength using a kettlebell, or dumbbell, and a tall step. In addition to the main workout, Burn and Build includes a bonus abdominal workout and Paul’s clinic, a twenty-five minute tutorial which gets you familiar with not only using the kettlebell but also incorporating the high step.

Burn and Build is an advanced workout designed to burn calories, build endurance, sculpt muscles and take your fitness ability to the level. Paul Katami leads the workout and is joined by three background exercisers. A modifier is present in the workout to not only demonstrate dumbbell substitution, if you do not have a kettlebell, but to also show easier modifications of some of the more challenging exercises. For the workout you will need a kettlebell or dumbbell, a high step and, depending on your workout surface, an exercise mat. From the main menu you have the option to select an Introduction, the Bonus Abdominal workout, the Clinic or the Burn and Build workout. You can then choose to play the workout, play the workout without music or use the chapter menu to select a specific chapter.

Burn and Build begins with a thorough warm-up designed to gradually raise the heart rate, wake up the body and get the muscles ready. the warm-up consists of three exercises repeated for three rounds, adding power and intensity to the second and third rounds. The warm-up finishes off with kettlebell work incorporating the high step to prepare you for the main workout. Once the warm-up is complete, the rest of the workout is built around seven blocks of timed drills. The exercises within each drill are performed for sixty seconds and each block is approximately seven minutes long. Each of the blocks contains a specific focus from cardio to drills, planks to windmills, combos to grinds. In the workout you will see traditional exercises like swings and goblet squats but also moves like high pulls while stepping on and off the high step. The workout concludes with a well-deserved cool down and stretch segment.
