I have been working out with Cathe for over a decade. Although my enthusiasm for and love of Cathe’s workouts hasn’t waned, my ability to perform some of them has. I love and hate high-impact workouts; although I enjoy their intensity, I often pay for them later with soreness or joint pain. It has been
I started working out using DVDs that were out there and featured other instructors but was not seeing the results that I really wanted, which was to be very toned. I searched the internet for instructors and read reviews that were posted by other people and when I did this I was constantly coming across
I’ve been a proud Cathlete for last 12 years. My final chemo treatment- for my second round of gynecologic cancer in 2 years- was September 15 in 2010. Seven months later on April 11 I had recovered enough to start on a fitness journey that I had been longing to go on for years. Cathe
Back in 2003, I came across one of your workouts while watching FitTv. I had a stability ball and decided to exercise along with you. Although I only had a pair of 5 pound dumbbells, I gave it my all and had a wonderful workout. The following night I tried to follow along to one
Before getting pregnant I weighed 102 pounds, worked out with my Cathe vids every day on top of teaching Martial arts! I had lost 60 pounds and felt great! In July of 2008 I found out that I was pregnant!! (2 days before my 10th anniversary- My hubby and I had tried for 10 years
I’m proud to say that for the past year and a half, I’ve been a part of the dynamic group of ladies that call themselves “Cathletes”. And, I can’t believe what all I’ve accomplished in such a short amount of time. In January 2010, I decided it was time to shake up my workout routine.
Your step videos have been a regular play in my family room since my sons were toddlers. They are now graduated from college. And I am in better shape now then before I got pregant twenty some years ago, thanks to an hour every other day with Cathe. Today, as in the past year, 5
About 7 years ago at age 32, I went through major back surgery for a grade 4 spondylolisthesis. I suffered permanent nerve damage and some muscle atrophy in one leg. I had many doubts and questions in my own mind as to what life would look like and how active I would be able to
It’s true the older you get, the faster time seems to fly by. Last year, I decided that I could do nothing and stay on the fast track to obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease or I could do something different. The year was going to fly by regardless of how I spent
Nine years ago, the best thing happened to me, I became a mom. Since then, I have been blessed with two more children, bringing the grand total to three amazing little boys. With my babies came joy, elation, adoration… and many, many unwanted pounds. Luckily, after my second child was born six years ago, I
Like many women, the scale just kept going up. I felt terrible about my ever increasing body so I ate more and moved less. I crashed dieted before my wedding to fit into my dress. I was constantly starving and irritable. I knew crash dieting wasn’t the answer but I wanted results fast and had
I discovered Cathe’s workouts on FitTV three years ago. I remember seeing one and thinking it looked really fun and challenging so I decided to try it.
