    Already want a Bootcamp 2!

    First, I just want to say how much fun I've been having getting to know all the new workouts from the 4 Day Split series the past few days. There's so much to like... the fresh new choreography and exercises, the music, the variety, the premixes, the awesome production quality. I could go on...

    Suggestions for IMAX-ish videos

    I like to do interval training workouts twice a week, and as much as I love IMAX 1, 2 and 3, after 2+ years of rotating them, I'm just getting bored to tears with doing the same interval workouts over and over again. Would anyone have any suggestions for interval-type workouts from another...

    Can there be too much variety?

    Hi Cathe! First I'd like to say that since discovering your workouts, my levels of both cardio capacity and strength, along with the visual changes in my body, have really improved a ton since before I started working out with you. So, thanks for that! However, lately I've been in a bit of a...

    Type of Push-ups on GS C&T

    I was absolutely shocked, but I got through them. (YAY!) I've gradually gone from not being able to do even one pushup on my toes when I first started working out, to being able to do the usual 2 sets of 16 that you see on most of Cathe's workouts. I've always dreaded them, though, because...

    Anyone do Imax3 on a 8 inch plateform?

    I do all my workouts on an 8" step, but had some concerns about blasts #1 and #7 with Imax 3. (I don't like the idea of jumping off the step at that height, and I thought those straddle jumping jacks in blast #7 were too tricky to do so quickly without one of these days catching my foot on the...

    gall bladder surgery

    I had my gallbladder removed about 2 1/2 years ago after having a nasty gallstone attack where I actually had 4 stones get stuck while they were trying to pass. I went to the ER on a late Thursday night, and the idiot resident who saw me said he thought I might be passing a stone, pumped me...

    Except Cathe: your best fitness workouts

    Since getting into Cathe, I seem to reach for her workouts 90% of the time, but here are a few that I still throw in here and there because they're almost as challenging as Cathe: Intense Moves - Gin Miller (Almost easy compared to the Imaxes, but still a challenge.) Hardcore Kickbox...

    I need advise about ordering Basic Body Blast and Fusion - interm./adva

    RE: I need advise about ordering Basic Body Blast and F... You would probably find the Basic Step + Body Fusion DVD too easy, especially if you're used to doing the Intensity series. You could, however, increase the difficulty during Body Fusion by going heavy on the weights. As far as not...

    one armed tricep dips

    While I can do them all, this is the segment on HSTA I always dread the most. The first time I did the workout, I toughed it out and did them all, though for the last two or three reps I found myself putting the other arm on my thigh for a bit of support. (And yes, Sandra, I feel it in the...

    Power Hour and MIS

    I would say Power Hour is quite comparable to Muscle Endurance, both in terms of difficulty and fun factor. I think ME has a bit more lower body work in it, but the upper body segments on PH and ME are pretty similar as far as length of time spent per body part and the intensity. One of...

    Questions about Aspartame and CLA

    Hi all. I first would just like to say that I'm fairly new to Cathe, having been doing her workouts for about 3 months now. Like a few others I've seen here, I got hooked on her workouts through FitTV. I knew about her for a long time, having been a subscriber to the Collage Video guide...
