Hi Cathe and Happy New Year!! I have been taking Krav Maga (Isreali hand to hand combat) which incorporates moves from many different martial arts areas. At one time, you mentioned producing a boxing/kickboxing series, including use of a heavy bag. These are great total body workouts...

Has anyone ever tried this? I just got it. The food is yummy, good variety, but I think it contains an aweful lot of sodium.

Hi Cathe! I know there is lots of excitement surrounding your new videos. I noted on the Collage website an expected releaase date of 10/20. How accurate is this? My wedding anniversary is 10/31 and I would LOVE the new workouts as a gift.

Hi Cathe, I am really having a hard time getting going. I guess I am "bored" with my current workouts. Any suggestions? I am also finding my time more and more limited. I like to get in 6 days/week, even if only for half and hour, but I am finding that my body only tolerates 5 days...

Cathe, Since I have been using your dvd's, I have gotten tremendous results in my upper body. I have shoulders, biceps and triceps. My back ripples. Unfortunately, my thighs, hips and stomach have maintained their nice layer of fat. My schedul allows very limited amount of time for...

Hi Cathe and all, I took a really bad fall skiing Monday. No major injuries, just alot of bruising and sore body parts, especially my neck, right arm (hurts to straighten) and right shoulder. BTW, thank goodenss I was wearing a helmet or the ski patrol would have been working very hard...

My 71/2 year old has joined a local resort ski race team. I drive him there every Saturday and Sunday 1 hour and 15 minutes away. He needs to be in the locker room by 7:30 am. So, in addition to getting up at 5 am during the week for work, I now need to be out of my house by 6:15 am on...

First of all, does anyone notice they are up a couple of pounds after heavy weight lifting? OK, now that said, I need suggestions from people/Cathe to help me out. 1. I like food! 2. I really try to keep healthy eating, but slip a little every couple of days. 3. Some think to add...

I took my 7 1/2 year old to see the new Harry Potter movie. It's great but very dark and creepy. We thought it was the best yet. BTW, those kids are really growing up. Even Daniel Radcliffe is getting muscles on his arms! Must be watching Cathe:-) :-)

Hi Cathe, Just wondering, what's your advice on exercise with a cold. I have been unfortunate enough to contract one from either my kids or patients. Anyway, it started Thursday, I have worked out Saturday and Sunday, but not at my tops. Thanks!

I am slowly aquirinq all of Cathe's workouts. Which one of these 2 workouts should be my next purchase? I love the idea of split workouts, but find I don't have time, so I usually have to use the "express" portion. Thanks in advance for your help.:-)

I love Cathe's workouts, but found KPC a little difficult in the moves. Someone suggested trying Kathy Smith's Kickboxing workout. It really helped! It's not quite the level of intensity as Cathe's, but I think with several go throughs I should be there! Thanks to whoever suggested that.

I tried KPC today for the first time. I made it through the first combo after all the intensity stuff, before my mind was so befuddeled I just gave up. Any suggestions on how to get the next 2 combo's? Break them up and just practice as not part of a workout? I really enjoyed the workout up to...

Today is my birthday. So far it's pretty normal. Woke up (at 6:15) to find my 3 year old had joined us in bed. Then, hubby had to perform minor surger on his bear, glued his eye back on (keeps falling off). Then, all my boys gave me a beautiful pink sapphire and white gold heart necklace! WOW...

Hmmm, I thought, a workout with no weight heavier than a 15 lb dumbell. TOO EASY! HA HA! Just call me jello legs right now!When she got to the second set of those "explosive lunges" I thought I would never be able to walk again. I do have a question, how often should I do a "heavy weight" vid...

We had crabs for dinner last night. It was a friends 40th birthday party. I did have 2 light beers too. Well, anyway, I can't even get my rings on my fingers this am!!! Anyone have any ideas how to relieve this FAST!:-( :-(

I just finished High Step Challenge. It was fun, fast paced and certainly left me quivering and helpless. But, I can't do those tuck jumps and aerial jumping jacks. Can anyone offer a suggestion as to what I can substitute to get the aerobic benefit, but without falling flat on my face? I have...

Please help! I have a family member who was hospitalized at LSU in New Orleans when Katrina hit. She is dying of ovarian cancer. We know the hospital has been evacuated and according the the other LSU hospitals, patients were sent to Lafayette, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio or Atlanta. I have...

Hi Everyone, I am fairly new to Cathe and her workouts (2-3 months). I used to do the FIRM, but found it not to be quite intense enought at times for me. Also, I would have to do 2 DVD's to get an adequate workout. I just got the High Step and it came with Muscle Endurance. I haven't done the...

Hi Cathe, My 71/2 year old son is a very very good and fast downhill ski racer. Though I have skiied since I was 3, he is rapidly overcoming my abilities. I am hoping to strenghten and increase the endurance of the muscle groups necessary to improve my abililties. Any thoughts on areas of...
