Hi, I posted this on the STS forum but decided to post it here too. Does anyone know if a breakdown of the exercises included in the Ab circuit DVD can be found? I'm thinking of buying it but would like to know what exercises are on it . TIA Nathalie

Thanks for the link Lita. It was what I was looking for. Nathalie

Hi, I don't know if this question has been answered before but what piece of equipment will be needed for the HIIT and Circuits workouts (step, weights, no step, etc.) And for MMA? Thanks Nathalie

I'm waiting... I decided not to preorder (even though I may end up buying alomost everything and paying the same price) because of the exchange rate (I'm hoping it will pick up a bit!!!), because of the shipping fees and I wanted to wait until we know more about the workouts. I may regret it...

Hi Cathe, I'm sorry if I was not clear enough. Re-reading it, I can see that it was confusing! For the step workouts, it is clear that a step will be needed but how about the others workouts? For example, for the HIIT and Circuits workouts, what equipement will you use? the step, high...

Hi, What equipment will be needed for the 3 workouts (other than the step!)? Nathalie

I'll wait Since I'm a big fan of step (and not much of anything else!), I'll wait until I have more information on all the workouts (especially HIIT and Circuit) to see if it suits me. Also, I don't like to order 6 months in advance, espacialy since I'm from Canada and the exchange rate is not...

I'd like to know it too!

Hi Tami, There is such a list which is has a breakdown of all Cathe's workouts along with all the exercises with the weight used by Cathe. You would find the information you're looking for. I think you might find it with this link http://figtools.blogspot.com/ (I forgot the name of the file...

Hi Stacey, Up until last year, I had trouble losing weight even though I worked out 3 days/week and ate "correctly". But last year, I lost a lot of weight, and I have to say that I had not in mind to lose that much weight (I went from a size 13 to a size 9) considering that I don't workout...

Hi Nora, I don't have Timesaver but I have Crosstrain X-press. I expected a lot from this DVD but I was a little disapointed. I don't pull it out very often. The problem that I have is that I don't find that the cardio is intense enough for me. I prefer to use an 6" step and I don't find the...

I think that the Supersets-Push/Pull DVD has some premixes that are around 30-40 min. long. The GS DVDs have also timesaver premixes that are around 35 min. If you do splits, that might work into your schedule. Maybe you could try increasing the tension on the bike or elliptical while doing...

I add another suggestion: Pyramid upper and lower body. It's an endurance workout but there's a lot of options and you could try a pyramid up or down to start with. The upper body workout is done with DB only. HTH Nathalie

I too decided to expand my collection of workouts DVDs. But I have to admit it's hard to get used to another instructor when you're used to Cathe! I got Amy Bento's ASC2 but I found that it was hard to learn: her cuing is not very good and she often goes into a complex move without any...

I voted for another SSS but I'd also like her to do another Imax or a BodyMax or something in the likes of Terminator (X-treme I think) or Hi/lo intervals from HCE that alternates 7-8 combos and intervals for at least 40 min. Nathalie

Yes I noticed the same thing but I don't know if it does affect the workout. I would not think so, IMO, it does not last long enough. Nathalie

I agree! Kathryn, you've summed up exactly Amy's problem regarding cuing!!! By the way, I tried ASC2 yesterday with the sound off and just combos 1 and 2. It wasn't that bad! But I think it's going to take me a while to master it. And I'm not sure that after that I will want to try...

Just my luck that the first Amy's workout that I got was the hardest to learn!!! I'll do what you and Carrie suggested and learn the combos one at the time, until one day I get it!!!!! Nathalie

I agree! I seem to be like you: I eat a sensible diet but no junk, and I have a soft (very soft!) definition. The nice thing about having definiton it that it shows that you're working hard at exercising and staying in shape (yes, there's a bit of vanity here!). But like you said, it seems...
