Default Well, if Cathe didn't amaze me before this w/e........

I am completely convinced she is at least part robot now, after chatting w/the NFL films guy. Some of the stories he told........well, I now understand that Cathe is a total perfectionist & I think I have a much clearer picture of what makes her stand out from other fitness instructors.

I hear one of the STS routines--a back workout, maybe?--took until 3 am to finish. I have a hard enough time w/my one hour routine, but 16 of 'em? OMG!

Also I heard a story about 3 straight hours of core pushups. Insanity, I tell you! 21 of them are tough enough, but 3 hours of them? WHOA!

And a great story about the new STS guys, how they came in all gung ho until they found out they couldn't come close to keeping up with the little powerhouse. Go Cathe!

So, while I was completely in awe before, my hero worship has reached a whole new level. Cathe & crew are such an incredible inspiration! I am just in awe.

Heck, I got exhausted just reading this post!!!!!!! I was so geeked up when I was able to lift more than her on the PUB/PLB bicep section, until the next day, when I couldn't feel my arms, even a little.

To me, the most amazing thing about Cathe is she doesn't look as if she's working hard...during the STS clips, I kept commenting to myself...c'mon, Cathe, can't you at least pretend you're struggling...

Default Totally fit Roadtrippers!

Hi Laura and Everyone! You are too sweet to say those kind things but I have to tell you that anybody that did that Bootcamp class on this RT is without a doubt a VERY FIT person. Those drills were NOT easy and we have the video of all of you doing them too prove it. And guess what???? You were laughing, sweating, high five-ing, and saying Bring it On as you switched to the next station. So I think its totally fair to say that we have a "half robot" nation in the making.... Work work!!!!!
