If you decide to try Brian Kest or Baron Baptiste you should get your DVD's at www.deepdiscountdvds.com (I tink that's the name, you can google it) they have really good deals on both of those instructors. I got Baron Baptiste's Soul of Strength for $9.90 and they NEVER charge for shipping...
Another vote here for the premixes ! ! !
I just love them and use them often; probably about 50% premixes 50% Cathe's workout as produced.
I tried the workout blender once when I initially received the BodyBlast series, but have never used it again since Cathe offered us so many premixes...
Hi Chutatip !
I will be visiting family in Bangkok in July.
If you would like I could buy a High Step or tthe High Step topper for you and bring it when I come in July.
Email me by clicking on my screen name, SooFit and sending me an email and we can work out details.
Please let me...
Hi Kathy ! ! !
Wow, I can't believe YOU couldn't finish the triceps reps ! ! ! This must be one tough workout. I previewed it and did the cardio only premix as an add on after doing Pyramid Upper Body. It totally winded me, and you're right it was those fast footwork thingys that had me...
Just Bumping, because I think everyone has been on vaca this past weekend. I was excitedly previewing and doing my new DVD's ! ! !
Thanks for the info! :D
Hi Cathe,
Don't know if this has been asked and answered or not, but what brand of resistance turbing are you using on your new DVD's? And what level of resistance are the bands; light, medium, or heavy resistance?
Thanks in advance for your reply!!!
:D :D :D

Hi Nancy !!!
I just received my DVD's. I'm off to preview them! I would think your novel notion cube should work fine. I've been using my old Fanny Lifter and so far it's worked fine. If I ever make it to Cathy's gym I would probably buy the high step to save on shipping costs and ditch...
Hi!
I wear SOF insoles for motion control / stability. They are wonderful! They are a bit pricey ($35.00) but worth it for me. I read an article on the runnersworld.com website that rated shoe inserts and that is what helped me to decide. You should try doing a search on their site to...
Hi!
You would fly into Philadelphia International Airport. I copied this info from Cathe's site. On the left hand menu scroll down to ABOUT CATHE and under that is a link called VISITING CATHE that is where I got the info below.
Our health club is located in Glassboro, NJ on route 47...
Hi Autumn,
I would be very interested in receiving the information you have about those essential oils as well as the article on the lysine. I have oral herpes and ever since my father passed away almost 2 years ago by outbreaks have gone from once or twice a year to more than a dozen in a...
I've been on a Kashi Heart to Heart kick lately. Love the stuff. I will eat Kashi, oatmeal or a seft boiled egg for breakfast.
Hi Nancy ! :D
I too, would love to see the "bad Kashi" list if it's not too much trouble.
Thanks,
Susan
:D
Hi Cathe ! and Kathy H !
I'm the Susan in the group and am so excited about our little roadtrip. Can't wait to finally meet you and see where all of your creative juices get flowing for our GREAT workouts ! ! ! Hope the new DVD's are coming along!
Thanks,

Terry Mia, I feel exactly the same way ! ! !
I can't even reach for another cardio workout lately ! It's just always Step Blast - Step Blast - Step Blast ! I just LOVE IT - LOVE IT - LOVE IT !
Glad to know I'm not the only one who is addicted to this workout. THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOO...
I also have a Polar HRM that tells you the calorie expenditure per workout based on my height, weight, age, etc. that you program in. I love it! It definately seems accurate. I believe for StepBlast it calculates I've burned around 500 calories per workout and I'm 5'5" and 130 lbs. and it...
Hi !
I found Cathe by doing the Firm and reading the Firm forum where Cathe was mentioned very frequently. Tracie Long was an original Firm instructor and a huge favorite of many. I think Kathy S. is just posting this information for other's who have found Cathe through the Firm and are...
Hi !
I have a Troy Lite and love it!
I believe the plates are rubber coated iron, so they are solid; definately not "filled" with anything. I also got mine from www.fitness1st.com. They're very friendly and have great customer service. You can email them at [email protected] if you...
:D
HI NANCY,
I knew you'd be reading this forum so . . .
Have a Happy, Happy Birthday ! ! !
Hope you have a wonderful day ! ! !
It's been such a delight meeting you (and our little group of NY Catheites) and I'm so glad to have a new friend(s)! Can't wait for our roadtrip ! ! ...

Re triceps contribution to push-ups:
A better way to develop triceps strength as a means to improve push-up performance is to do weighted triceps dips, as opposed to supine triceps extensions (skullcrushers, French presses, etc.) or kickbacks. Triceps dips more closely mimic...
I think AJock is onto something about triceps strength needed for pushups.
I have the classic long limbs, short torso, weak core that many of you seem to share with me, but what gives out first in pushups is definately my shoulders and triceps. My arms are supper weenie!!! Another thing I've...
