    Step Workouts

    My first Cathe step workout was All Step. Although, I wouldn't necessarily recommend that if you are just starting out. It frustrated the heck out of me at the time, but I kept practicing it and finally got it down pat! Then I kept adding in more Cathe's and found that the more of her...

    Treadmill recommendations

    This summer I got a fully functioning ProForm 770 for $20. If money is an issue, I highly recommend checking local garage sales and CraigsList.

    Intermittent Fasting ( IF)

    I know I am very late to the IF party but I've been doing it for over a month now and love the ease of it, along with some good results for me. I find this way of eating kind of like a Hiit workout......get in, give it your all, get it done, and move along. Combining Hitt with IF has been a...

    So Confused About What to/What Not to eat

    I could've written your post myself. I love string cheese and eat it almost every day. I exercise at least 5 days per week and have been doing it without fail since I was in my late 20's. I'm not necessarily confused about food, but I don't focus too much on it because it makes me crazy! I...

    Need to vent a little.....

    Yup, I've seen lots of people do just that...... Then, they'll complain that it hurts all the time b/c they are overweight causing more compression and have no muscle tone b/c they won't exercise. At that point, they can't even lay down and get relief so they go to the doctor for pills for...

    More split program - 6DS Concept;-)

    Since 4 day split is my absolute fav series, I would LOVE any other split options Cathe would come up with. In 4DS, I am in love with the LIS and HIS step sections! They are so fun and fly by! I would even be up for a 3 or 5 day split option or pre-mixes to make a 6DS also work for a 3DS or...

    I would love Slow and Heavy 2

    I think I read a Cathe article not long ago about essentric exercises. Actually I thought a new concept to slow and heavy would be to do a set of concentric exercises, rest, and then do a set of essentric exercises using the same move at a slooooooow pace like in the original S&H. So instead...

    Any women now in 40s struggling who had high metabolisms in their 20s/30s?

    I agree with the others. Don't compare yourself to celebrities....you will NOT win. Personally, I aim to be healthy and fit, not camera ready. I wonder how many of those celebs could hang with us Cathletes? Weights with very little cardio seem to make the most difference for me but everyone...

    Foam Roller Workout

    Thanks Justine, that was useful. I'm still holding out hope that Cathe will do a FR workout. Maybe even if it's incorporated into the cool downs of workouts she is already planning. I'd love a complete roller workout, but I'll take what I can get......

    Foam Roller Workout

    I would love to see a foam roller workout from Cathe. Perhaps doing 3 or 4 separate 20-30 minute workouts on one DVD.....like the original Hiit workout, which I still use all the time:) I would get a lot of use out of a foam roller workout. It's something I know I need and should do, but...

    I would love Slow and Heavy 2

    I'd love S&H 2!!! In one of the S&H workouts she says something like; we move slow on the concentric moves......maybe on another workout we'll move slow on the eccentric moves. Well alrighty then......Lets do it!!! Please, please, please!!! Although the only thing I didn't like with the...

    How old is TOO old?

    Well this post first showed up in 2008. I would love to know if the OP decided for or against going back to school. It would have been a LOT to handle.....not because of age, but because of all the other responsibilities that those who are a bit older have to deal with such as paying a...

    ICE Music?

    I just completed PUB and "Cold as Ice" is played during the killer bicep section toward the end (when I am anything but cold)! LOL! I also like the remixed music for those old shows like Magnum PI and Miami Vice. I typically don't like just instrumental, but with those two tracks in...

    User's Guide- Hard Copy PLEASE

    I agree with the OP on this. Printing out the pages just isn't the same as having the guide. I enjoy the user guides and would be willing to pay extra for it and wait a month or two on the shipping of it so it wouldn't interfere with the workout DVD ship schedule. Books could be sent via...

    ICE Music?

    Maybe a sound-a-like to "Cold as Ice" will show up in the series. Actually, wasn't that already on IMAX2? I absolutely LOVED the music in that series, and most especially that particular workout! I don't mind the remade music at all. You can still sing along in your head, it still brings...

    Body Beast

    Yes, he is 'funny' when he calls the other dudes honey and sweetie.:eek::confused: I liked the program, especially the pyramids. However, I did lose flexibility and cardio endurance with it. I didn't add anything to the program and did it as instructed. The next time, I would add cardio and...

    Dreambody OR Mixxtreme

    Of these, I only have the original DB set. The pace IS frantic. I tried to keep doing them, but the dread factor is just too much. I'm also not crazy about the instructors or the music. These workouts have been sitting dormant for a while as I am instead enjoying JNL Fusion at the moment.

    Uterine Fibroid

    I have not had any issues with fibroids, but I am currently reading 'What your doctor may not tell you about premenopause' by Dr. Lee. I'm finding it very enlightening. I would highly recommend this read as it does mention this issue and ways to manage it. It has certainly given me some...

    Another Ultimate Yogi question

    I've never been much of a Yoga person, but I caved a while back and bought this for $100. I'm so glad I did, even at that price it was well worth it. I try to do at least one workout at least once per week. It's colder in my basement in the winter, so in the summer I will utilize the set...

    Dream body cardio

    I have the original DB series and they are hard! Yes, they are frantic and not very fun and the constant jabbering of the instructors does get annoying. However, they do kick my butt if I am brave enough to drag one out of the case and push play. I have a feeling these are going to be a lot...
