Maybe you could do a few geared for the intermediate/advanced intermediate exerciser but I have to say, following your rotations since last month, I'm getting better every day! I'm sure there are some people who would really appreciate a HIIT or metabolic workout geared at the more advanced...

I find it takes me about 3 times through to start to get the hang of it. I also watch the workout a couple of times through before attempting it. I agree with trying the Basic Step and Body Fusion first. Cathe is very good about practicing the moves several times. Once you get the moves...

This is all super for SNM and Cathe! Unfortunately, I'm in the same rural boat so the DVDs work best for me. Besides that, I just "graduated" to advanced workouts and I've been doing this month's rotation. As such, the pause button has become my best friend for the time being while my body...

Becca, I found the high step workouts are great for the hamstrings. You will be sore but they do the job. I started with a riser or two less than they use in the videos and slowly started adding. I'm up to 5 and I think that's as high as I can go because I'm short with short legs. The...

Updated Cathe Compendium Thanks so much Anna! I don't know how I've missed this since October but what an eye opener! Certainly makes a case for circuit training and explains why my extra pounds are shedding! Thanks! Susan:)

I just bought a pair of Ryka Enhance 2 shoes for step and HIIT and I love them! I've worn them for about a week now and they are much better than the Under Armour I was fitted with. Susan:)

HIIT You guys are so informative! Six weeks ago or so I asked about this too because I was doing HIIT about every other day, not knowing any better. I was getting results but came to dread doing it because it is a lot of work. I just finished the first 6 weeks of Cathe's beginner rotation so...

Thanks Janie! I learned that lesson too with my legs. When I started doing the circuit training, I wasn't ready for a lot of the moves they were doing but did them anyway. My knees paid the price and I lost about 4 weeks in letting them settle down. It was mostly tendinitis and not in the...

Laughing Rooster Hi Janie! I won't ask how you found that but it is contagious! I'm starting the second three week cycle of the beginner rotation this week and boy! Cathe did raise the intensity but I love that burn feeling every day when I'm done. I was doing the basic step all the way...

Beginner/Intermediate DVDs Well, I have to throw in "me too!" for that. I'm doing Cathe's beginner rotation with the older DVDs which is just fine and they're working quite well. Thanks to all the great daily deals, I've managed to buy all of the intermediate rotation DVDs except one that I'm...

Skinny Fat?? What a concept! I was worried that cutting back my workouts to do Cathe's beginner's rotation would cause me to gain weight again. My legs were taking a beating with the Cardio Supersets because they were not yet strong enough to do that type of heavy duty workout. Well, I lost...

Intermediate rotation Thanks Janie! Now I'm set! That will give me time to buy all those DVDs too. I have some of them now and maybe some of them will be a daily deal too. This is all so helpful! Thanks again!

:)Hi all! Cathe has the most comprehensive workouts of anyone out there and what I had been doing in the way of circuit training was just play. Cathe knows how to kick butt! So, I found a beginner rotation she posted some time ago and yes, I'm going back to the beginning! The Body Fusion...

HIIT and Rotations Swimmer, thanks for the information on the Low Impact Cardio Supersets. It is a tough workout! I thought I was better conditioned than I actually am after doing all the circuit training I did since early August but obviously I have a long way to go yet but I'm loving it...

Thanks to all! Thanks for all the encouragement! I really appreciate all the support here and the kind thoughts! I'd really like to get into a weekly rotation I can do 5-6 days a week but I'm still kind of feeling my way through all the great workouts and trying them out. I'm discovering...

Hello to all! I just discovered Cathe about a month ago and just fell in love with her style! I wanted to do step aerobics to strenghten my legs and bought a step that had a DVD of hers with it. That started the whole thing! I now have about 10 of Cathe's DVDs including some of her low...

I started working out again in July after about 25 years of basically sitting on my butt working and gaining a lot of weight. I started with other circuit training videos and was sort of crawling along with the weight loss but gaining strength and endurance little by little. I never stop...
