Well I managed to survive day 2 of the rotation. I really pushed myself hard during CTX Upper Body and had very little energy by the end of the BBW. I found it difficult to motivate myself during the BBW (I'm used to having Cathe encourage me I guess). Have a great day everyone!

I love the gauntlet. I did it last week and found myself smiling during the entire workout (well maybe not during the bicep curls).

Hot tubs or hot springs are great for loosening up. A lot of spas have mineral pools where you can drop in for $10. Soaking in these pools is absolute heaven on tight muscles. I take a book and soak in the mineral pool for an hour. My muscles are mush afterwards...it's heaven!:)

RE: Is Your Kid a My son (just turned 5) says "Can you see us Cathe?" "Can she hear us?" "Mommy do the right thing" i.e. if I'm modifying "Work harder" (he's my little fitness trainer) "You can do it. You can do it" when I'm doing a really hard fitness interval or a crazy number of push...

Definitely get terminator. I initially had all of the workouts on VHS and my first Cathe DVD was terminator. I absolutely adore it. I love circuit workouts and my two favorite circuit workouts are on it: the Gauntlet and the Viper. Imax Extreme is also great if you want to push yourself really...

Well I did day 1 this morning. It took 75 minutes. My quads were shaking by the end of the walking lunges. I did the last 50 lunges karate style...wow did that up the intensity! Laurie I too am looking forward to a rock bottom.

Yesterday I did Circuit Max for the 32nd time. I forgot how much fun I have doing this workout. It was like getting together with a dear friend that you haven't seen in a long time. I love so many of the moves in this workout. I find I only do this workout every 5 months or so because I don't...

Well I'm going to see if I can stick with this rotation for the entire month. I managed to do the first two weeks of the May rotation and then lost momentum. I did Circuit Max yesterday so doing IMAX today should work well. I think I'll put on Cyndi Lauper for the walking lunges. Have a great...

I've lived without cable or satellite for 10 years. Prior to that I had no tv at all for 5 years. I prefer renting movies and doing workout videos. I think the last popular show I've watched was "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" as my mom taped it for me and we'd watch it once a year when I visited...

I love the dancy moves. I take advanced jazz dance so I really focus on form when I'm doing them and get a great workout. In my dance class I find it's the combination of being up on your toes and the leaps that really work me hard. When I do Cathe's dancy moves I focus on dance posture and...

Suzanne you should try these: In karate I used to do 1) one armed push ups (with other arm behind your back) 2) tricep pushups with the thumbs and pointer fingers making a "spades" shape in front of your face 3) knuckles push ups 4) clapping push ups or as I called them "falling on your...

"All of my workout bras need to be washed so I can't work out." My eureka moment later that day was it's going to get sweaty anyway just grab one, do the workout and shower.

The high kicks going around the step in LowMax and plunge lunges are tied for my favorite step move. I love plyo jacks. Tuck jumps and kick jumps get my heart rate up. For kickboxing I enjoy all of it, especially the combinations so I can't really choose a favorite. One combo I particularly...

This morning I did Pyramid Upper body and then Step Jam. I'm also biking a total of 40 minutes to get my daughter to and from school (8 x 5min). I was very pleased that I managed to do all the biceps with 15 lbs at the top of the pyramid...this was the first time I managed this feat. Step...
