    Did horizontal conditioning Vol. 2 and had to laugh...

    I went and viewed some clips and it just looks like pure torture to me. No fun whatsoever, which means it would have a major dread factor for me. And why the heck do they wear hats! That would drive me bonkers. I sweat so much, my head would be itching like crazy! I shouldn't knock before I...

    Feb Rotation : Xtrain plus Cross fire and To the max

    Definitely one of my favs! CF and TTM really make it very challenging. I will definitely be doing it again.

    Ultimate Yogi

    It sounds like the program has the potential to be life changing. I have high stress and anxiety and am wondering if 108 days of Yoga may be revolutionary for me. It would be so very hard for me to completely stop my Cathe workouts though. I would be afraid I would lose a lot of my muscle...

    I did the Cardio power premix with the KB and the boot camp cardio. It was killer.

    Maintaining current level of fitness through pregnancy

    Unless your miscarriage was due to an incompetent cervix, working out should not have any effect on your pregnancy, except to make labor easier ;) With my oldest, I had severe ms till week 14, but I as soon as I could, I got back on the workout wagon. I actually worked out the morning before I...

    Help! Can't find a particular thread!!

    I have searched and searched for a particular thread I read a little while ago. I think it was comparing the 2 spin DVD's, but in it someone suggested another spin instructor that they absolutely loved. Maybe even posted a link to youtube. I'm looking for the other videos. Can anyone help?

    Is there a way to substitute Super Cuts into 30 Day rotation?

    I have been subbing in Super Cuts for Hard Strikes whenever it is in the rotation. Seems to work out perfectly for me.

    How would y'all rate the new Xtrains from toughest to easiest?

    The first 30 mins of the legs DVD is not easy at all and really gets your heart rate up. The Cardio Leg Blast is one of the hardest IMO. It's probably best you start with one of the weight workouts, not including super cuts. So discs 1, 2 and 3.

    Error in Xtrain 30 Day Strength Rotation?

    I'm confused as to what you're asking because Sunday is a rest day in all of the rotations. What do you mean by the 27th and 28th?

    Legs-Premix one+rear delts

    This was my facebook status as I have a few friends that wanted updates as I did the workouts.. For those interested--Today's XTrain update with Cathe Friedrich. Day 2 of the 30 day rotation was Legs Premix one, which was the standing, ball and floor portion of legs+rear delts. The heaviest...

    100 rep challenge question

    I don't really have any method to my madness. I started the 30 day rotation today. Day 1 is Low Impact HiiT+Burn set Chest. Since Scarecrows are the 100 rep challenge on this particular disc, that's what I did.

    ROAD TRIP 2013?

    Not even the one in NJ at Cathe's home gym?

    Workout Hair

    I am SUCH a SWEATY mess after working out, that there's no way I could go without washing my hair. It is literally dripping with sweat and I don't think anything, but washing would help it. I would also feel self conscious about it. My mom on the other hand doesn't sweat much at all, so she...

    STS Plyo result from Cathe's rotation and/or your own

    I've really only ever done STS plyo legs during my 3 rounds of STS, so I can only comment on that. I haven't used them in any other type of rotation. Awesome workouts, tho. They would tend to lean you out more than build muscle since you don't lift as heavy during those workouts.

    My absolute new favorite....

    Yep, I own 4DS as well. It's definitely good, but the step portions, while fun, aren't as fun as Rhythmic Step. Step moves was my favorite before purchasing RS. I probably own 75% of Cathe's workouts. Unfortunately I had quite a few on VHS and my player broke, so I gave those to my sister...

    My absolute new favorite....

    It may be a little bit old, but I just purchased Rhythmic Step a few weeks ago and it is my absolute favorite step work of all. Can't believe I've gone without it for this long. It's pretty intense, but the fun factor is at 100!! Just wanted to share. I was reminded of this when I saw it was...

    shoes for stepping

    I don't think just a "stepping" shoe exists. I think you're best option is to go for a cross-trainer. My new favs are my Rykas!!

    Battle of the Imaxes!!

    I haven't read all of the replies, but just wanted to say that I did the original IMAX the other day and it blew me out of the water. I personally think it's the hardest by far because the blasts are incredibly LONG!! Sometimes when she says "half-way done", I feel like crying because I...
