    Thanks ladies! I have been talked out of getting FlexTrain. I do also have Afterburn, and it occurred to me that I could probably sub in some of my Firm DVDs too. Those ladies from South Carolina were doing metabolic before it was a thing after all. And how can I resist when they promise...

    So I started a full round of XTrain. Today is Day 4: Bi's and Tri's. Will probably make some substitutions in the go of this rotation every now and then so I'm not repeating the same 9 workouts for 90 days! Wondering if I should pick up Flex Train as a sub for Supercuts? I already have LIS...

    Diane Sue-Thanks! I am really liking Paul Katami kettlebell videos. Very methodical, clear instruction, which is exactly what I like about Cathe workouts!

    Question: Can you lift as much as Cathe?

    IMO, don't worry about what Cathe does. Her standard is and what should be something to aspire to, or even exceed. Poundage used in any exercise is something totally personal. If a weight is too light, you will know it. If a weight is too heavy, you will know it. Adjust accordingly so that you...

    Busy day yesterday, but I was able to devote an hour to Crossfire + ab bonus. Today I did the other Paul Katami kettlebell DVD I got on sale. Having some friends over for grilling and pooltime today.

    I don't have Amy Ross, but it's on my list! I do like the two Paul Katami intermediate/advanced DVDs I just got. I did the easier one and previewed the other. Great, careful instruction throughout, and he is friendly and encouraging. He has "Kettlebell Clinics" on each of his DVDs, which is...

    Thanks Doreen and Diane Sue! Peak Fit definitely does what it says it does - it gets you Peak Fit! That said, I do prefer Cathe's weight work over Michelle's. Cathe is much more deliberate and instructional. And relentless high impact metabolic workouts day after day for 8 weeks is just too...

    Late to the party, but I so need to get disciplined with purchases that I don't use. Yesterday I was looking at the Supreme 90 Day series I bought a long time ago that I never used. Just finished up 8 weeks of Michelle Dozois' Peak Fit Challenge (now called Peak 10 Fit Body Challenge) that I...

    ADVANCED!!

    Just chiming in here to say yes please to another advanced, complete series. Let "everybody else" make the beginner/intermediate workouts, and let Cathe stick to being Cathe - which means an advanced approach to safe, effective, and balanced workouts.

    Running workouts

    I tried Amy Dixon's Treadmill Coach Vol 1 today also. Had to break it up into two sessions due to time constraints and only did the first 4 stages, but WOW. Something about it made me push myself further than I thought I'd be able to go. At the end I was dripping with sweat. I totally...

    Running workouts

    I also found 2 workouts from Jeff Galloway (also on Amazon) coaching through his Run-Walk method (2:00/1:00 and 3:00/1:00 intervals). I may get those eventually, but it really is just him telling you when to run and when to walk, and there is no variation that I can tell. I was curious to see...

    Running workouts

    Thanks, Elsie! As a result of browsing the Marina mp3s, I found a couple of treadmill interval mp3s from Amy Dixon and another generic coaching one from Jessica Smith. I bought the first treadmill workout from Amy Dixon. Will see how it goes, but I think I would still like a video.

    Running workouts

    This is an old thread, but I am bumping! I would love to have actual workout DVDs with Cathe coaching us through a treadmill interval workout, similar to the Runervals DVD series. I currently devise my own intervals on the treadmill, or look at workout intervals on the internet to follow, but...

    Workouts while traveling

    I would also add Slide n Glide to this list. All you need for this are the gliding disks and resistance loop. So its minimum equipment, combines resistance work, and is low impact, so you don't have to worry about jumping around and bothering people on the floor below you. I used to travel...

    Yoga Experiences...please share

    I've consistently incorporated yoga into my routine 1x per week for about 30 years. I don't think it is necessary to do it multiple times a week to improve your poses - once a week is enough. As the 112toGuru mentioned, even if you you only do yoga 1x a week, you will notice an improvement...

    It's time for beginners and intermediate workouts.

    Interesting thread. I am a "new" poster, but have been working out with Cathe since the 90's. I started with her Maximum Intensity Strength and Pure Strength Series on... VHS!! (I am 51) I have a huge DVD library of various workout videos, and the only reason I buy Cathe is because she does...
