    Music from Circuit Blast?

    I love this song, too! I always turn up the volume when it comes on. Lol. I love the music from that series. I would also like to know if this song is available for purchase. It has a Summer vibe to it.

    STS first time!

    My STS arrived today. I am so freaking excited! I have wanted this since the pre-sale, but I was about to start grad school, and had to be careful with my money. This is a birthday/Christmas present from my husband. (My birthday is Monday. December b-days suck sometimes.) I am going to go to...

    What is Your Go-To Workout?

    I love Drill Max. I love the music in it, I go to it when I have some extra time. When I'm short on time, I go to Circuit Blast. I love the music in that one, too. Good tunes keep me motivated and I am more likely to use a DVD based on music. Music is important to me when I workout. LOL

    STS video clips?

    Here is a link I found helpful: Cathe Friedrich – STS It's an overview of STS and there is a tab in the upper rt hand corner that says "Previews" and there are a ton of clips in there.

    STS first time!

    Hello, Grateful Dog- How long did it take you to do all of the 1RM tests? My STS package arrives tomorrow and I'm very excited. Part of me wants to start ASAP and part of me wants to wait until after the Holidays, where there is no danger of me skipping a workout because of impromptu...

    Catheisms in LIS!

    I always laugh in during the line taps in Afterburn when she growls, "Buuurn that butt." I'm usually in a good mood at that point because it's almost over.

    Should I Buy STS??

    I have wanted STS since the pre-sale, but I was just about to start grad school, so I couldn't spare the cash. This is a great deal and my birthday is in 2 weeks, so this will be my present. I don't have a barbell, either, but I am going to check my local Play It Again Sports for a set. I have...

    Good Exercise App for Mac ???

    I have this app on my iTouch called Body Fate. You select what level of fitness you are, what equipment you have and how long you want to work out. It is a mix of cardio moves and strength training. You also get 3 optional rest periods. It generates a work out for you. It's fun and I've never...

    I'm eating PIZZA today, and I don't care...

    I am making a crustless quiche for myself, since I'm a vegetarian. Very easy to make, just saute some onions and then mix with the remaining ingredients and bake. I will steam some broccoli and possibly roast some mushrooms, if I feel that ambitious. I am going to do Afterburn very shortly...

    Christmas letters ... yay or nay??

    The only time I ever received one was in 2001. It was from a guy I broke up with in 1995. He was always putting me down--stuff like that. I hadn't heard a peep from him until this letter. The letter said stuff like, "I got a job as a FINANCIAL ANALYST with BOEING. I am currently dating woman who...

    LIS helping the "pear-shaped" gal

    Serious pear-shape checking in! I have lost a few pounds and noticed my hips and thighs have gotten smaller since I have been doing this series. I have not been following the rotation, but I have been doing whichever LIS DVD tickles my fancy that day. I'm a spontaneous exerciser. I wish I'd...

    Disney

    If you decide to stay off site, I have the name of a company that manages rentals. It's not a timeshare company, they manage condos for owners who don't live locally. We always stayed in the same unit. It was a 2 br/ba condo. It was really nice and quiet. It's a 10 minute drive away, tops. Top...

    Turbo Barre Question

    Thanks, ladies. At least I don't feel like a fitness misfit anymore. I'm just surprised. I've done this DVD about 6 times so far and I'm still getting the crazy glute/quad burn. I guess I'll just keep on keepin' on.

    Disney

    Hello- If you can stand *really* hot and humid weather, but lighter crowds, I'd say September. The weather will be better in March, but lots of families come down for Spring Break. They usually have deeper discounts in Sept. I've seen (and personally used) the 40% room only discount or the...

    Turbo Barre Question

    Hello- I love Turbo Barre, but I notice when I do the barre portions where I have one leg bent and toe pointing up (I hope I'm making sense here.), I feel a crazy burn in the quads of my supporting leg, more than the working leg. The supporting leg fatigues long before my working one! I am...

    Joe Paterno

    I read today that Joe Paterno is going to receive a $500K/yr pension. Wow. For coaching a football team. What a contribution to benefit society in general. He also made his wife the sole owner of their house, for "estate planning purposes" yesterday. More like "CYA purposes", if you ask me.

    Turbo Barre is a Masterpiece

    I agree. I would absolutely love to see more Barre from Cathe. I had long regarded Barre workouts as "wimpy", so it was great to see they really are challenging. What a butt burner! It's a nice change-up from traditional strength training.

    Youngest and oldest Cathletes!

    I am 37 and I have been doing Cathe DVDs since 2006. My husband got me KickMax for Christmas that year and I was hooked. I had been doing The Firm prior to that and I was pleased to see there was new challenge for me with Cathe's workouts.

    LIS shoes?

    Compared to Adidas & Nike, these seem pretty true to size. These brands are my only reference point as far as trainers go. They are kind of strange in the sense that you can kind of see your foot through the shoe, I guess you could call them translucent. The sides are a tight mesh, but I...

    Athletic training

    I think this is my favorite one. I love circuit training, so this one is right up my alley. It's funny, when I previewed these disks, I would think, "That doesn't look so hard." Then I did these workouts and, wow, was I wrong. These look deceptively light in intensity, but are anything but.
