    Chalean Extreme or stick with Cathe?

    I have CLX and did it before trying any of Cathe's workouts. In fact, it was how I finally decided to give Cathe a try as I was looking for strength training workouts to use after. I have STS but haven't tried it yet (building up to it). I would agree with the other comments here about CLX...

    Any Cathe beginners?

    Hope everyone is having a fantastic weekend! It's humid here and supposed to be for the next few days so I'll be spending a lot of time inside with my air conditioning. LOL I don't tolerate humidity very well. I'm checking in with another Turbo Fire workout: Fire 45. It was fun but it will...

    Any Cathe beginners?

    Hi everyone! Checking in today with Fire 30, Core 20 and Stretch 40 classes from Turbo Fire. My first week is now complete and am still loving the workouts. The only ones I'm not liking are the Stretch ones but I think that I have been spoiled by Cathe's Stretch Max. :) I'll try them for...

    Turbo Fire HIIT workouts

    I tried HiiT 15 for the first time a few days ago and it was intense and tough!! I haven't tried Cathe's (I have it) but it scares me because I figured hers would be even more intense! LOL I do find that my feet bother me at times too - especially for anything high impact. But I also find...

    Checking in with a rest day for me today and it was hard to take it - I really wanted to do something but I know it's important for me to take these rest days and not burn myself out again. :) Bridget: I think it is amazing to see how we have all improved and have moved past Basic Step in...

    Checking in with Turbo Fire HiiT 15 and Stretch 10 classes today. That HiiT one is tough but doable especially since the intervals are only 30-35 seconds. I also mowed the lawn this morning and it was a workout in itself since it is long and it was already humid out. David: One suggestion...

    Turbo Fire

    I just finished the Fire 30 + Stretch 10 Classes (just starting Turbo Fire) and loved it. It is Turbo Jam supercharged and definitely a lot more intense. The music is great and the moves fit really well too. It was tough but no problem finishing - guess all those Cathe workouts really have...

    Any Cathe beginners?

    Checking in today with my first Turbo Fire workouts completed: Fire 30 Class + Stretch 10 Class. Fire 30 was a lot of fun - it's like Turbo Jam supercharged! Similar moves that you find in the Turbo Jam workouts but a lot faster. There are two drills which are the same and they last about a...

    Any Cathe beginners?

    Checking in with 10 Minute Solution Knockout Body completed today. It was a good kickbox-style workout - definitely easier than Cathe! I'm going to be starting Turbo Fire tomorrow - I love Cathe and her workouts but I just need a mini-break from her for a bit. I've been doing her workouts for...

    Any Cathe beginners?

    Elle: I'm in Ottawa so we definitely felt it. :) It freaked out a lot of people - they didn't know what it was. It wasn't that bad - I was on the 17th floor of a building and you felt it but I just thought it was construction or something and then people started freaking out (they were...

    Any Cathe beginners?

    Checking in with Cardio & Weights and Stretch Max #3 completed for today. I really had to fight a bit to finish in Cardio & Weights - especially that last step combo - but I finished. But I know I will have improved when it is easier. :) Pam: I guess every so often we are on the same...

    David: Welcome to the group! Great job with 52 minutes of MIS - and if you have to use lighter weights right now, do it! It doesn't matter what the weight is as long as you are using good form and working the muscle to fatigue as much as possible. Jennifer: Great job on losing 3.6 lbs...

    Any Cathe beginners?

    Quick check-in for me. I'm completely off my schedule so no workouts the past few days. I'm looking after 3 other cats (in addition to my own) and they are all staying at their homes so I have to make the rounds and visit them and check on them. It takes awhile so I'm getting home much later...

    Turbo Fire

    I just ordered tonight! I decided to get the basic system and the deluxe DVDs so it's a little cheaper. :) Carrie: LOL - I'm with you...I hate not being rich too!

    Any Cathe beginners?

    Checking back with Cardio & Weights completed. I decided to skip Stretch Max because I was running out of steam - might have to pay more attention to what I'm eating these days to make sure I have enough energy for these workouts.
