    Cathe, what about a real, truly HEAVY routine on DVD

    I have your PS and SH, which I value tremendously, but I would like to see a workout pushing the barbell intake up past 40/45 lbs. On my heavy days I go past this weight. This would cater to the persons who want to push for split routines by going truly heavy. I know that you can just up...

    question on choosing a series

    I am partial to the Intensity Series. Every one of those workouts will test you to the max. IMAX2, nothing needs to be said for this workout, the name along SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. Cardio and Weights, to me, is the EASIEST of this whole series. The PUB and PLB, excellent upper and lower body...

    Question about crunches and neck soreness

    Hi, I am not Cathe, but your head needs to be stationary. Pretend you have an apple between your chin and neck. This stance holds the neck in one position. Also, when you have your hands behind your head, it should not pull your neck. It should be placed gently while you are using your core...

    Pure Strength and Slow & Heavy -- switch from vhs to dvd???

    I think that eventually, as all VHS tapes, it will wear down with normal wear and tear. This will enforce you to make a decision. I know that the DVD's are more pricey, but the long term is the key for me. Plus you can flip through the DVD with a touch of a button, vs the rewinding of the VHS...

    Workouts to alternate with Cathe?

    One of the best Karen Voight DVD's is The Great Weighted Workout. This workout is totally with 3-5 lbs weights and the reps are high. I reach for this workout a couple of times a month because it gets you going and for the low amount of weight used you are fried in the end. I also like Billy...

    Question about copyright

    It is right to post it here, but I think due to copyright infringments, you probably will do better donating the VHS and purchasing the DVD. Just like many of us, who go to Walgreens or any outlet that takes VHS tapes and transfer it to DVD format, it clearly states not any copyrighted...

    Please Help .....I seem to Be Working Out Harder & Gaining Weight

    I am not Cathe, but how many calories are you intaking on a daily basis? When I was down to the last ten pounds, I had to get extremely strict with my diet intake. You can push it off with a 1200 to 1500 calorie intake, but you have to count the calories. When I started counting, I saw a...

    I was researching spin bikes and happened to type Cathe's name in and up pops the all the Hardcord DVD's. It is not sold by SNM but another company. Just FYI. She is getting out all over the place!! Linda "We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated." Maya Angelou

    Barbell Weights

    I am not Cathe, but it is the total weight, including the bar. So if your bar is 5, 10, 15 lbs you just adjust accourdingly. Linda "We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated." Maya Angelou

    Which Step to buy.

    Go to the DVD section on Cathe's website for her variety and different Step workouts. It clearly identifies each one as Beg/Int or Advanced. The Basic Step and Body Fusion is Beginning/Intermediate. A drastic difference in the routine vs. her advance stepping DVD's/VHS's which definately...

    Exclusively Cathe

    I was a member of a very exclusive, expensive gym. Multiplex, in Deerfield, Il. I had a strange work schedule, nights, and it was rough getting there. Plus, since we moved further west I was only getting in there on the weekends. I switched to Cathe, was running outside and then my problem...

    Demi & Ashton

    My take is this: If Donald Trump, who by the way looks like the BOTTOM OF MY SHOE, can date and marry good looking YOUNG women, WHY NOT DEMI!!! Why not the May/December romances for women? We are hot, even HOTTER past 35 IMO, and I am 44 and the youngsters are always shouting out at ME...

    please help me!

    I LOVE THE TERMINATOR!!! Of all Cathe's full mix series, I favor this over Timesaver and Hardcore. Each segment is a value in its own sense. It works you to the max. I found I like doing one of the segment's at least once a week, with other rotations. I would also, definately invest in...

    Cathe, what is a good protein shake?

    I have been on the fence for this. I have read different things about protein shakes, but I am looking for one that will BENEFIT you before or after a hard workout. Also, is it better to have the shake before or after your workout. There are so many brands on the market, I am confused as to...

    help me please!!

    I would definately incorporate more CARDIO exercises and keep the weights at 3x's a week maximum. Also, what is your diet like? It is good to incorporate exercise for the body, but food intake (your diet) is as important as working out. If you are not eating clean, correctly, the pounds will...
