Lea - good for you for walking. But, try and enjoy the rest days. I know what you mean about sticking to a regular wake-up time, though. On those later days, I still try to sleep in a little, though, about 1/2 an hour to give myself extra rest but not totally differ from my "normal" wake up...

Started Week 3 yesterday. Boot Camp Circuit was yesterday, and it's a little cool that yesterday was only the 2nd time doing the workout. I mean, there are so many workout choices that you aren't repeating the same workouts as much. Anyway, the first time I did it (1st day), I had to stop 3...

Today was Boot Camp Circuit for the first time. This was a challenging workout. I'm not used to working with a step, so that was a great leg challenge. I paused the DVD once in the middle for a longer chance to catch my breath. I thought this workout was more about the cardio element than...

Today's my rest day. It feels good having two days off in a week. I know that's only for Level One, though. So, I'm enjoying it while I can. Work is slow today, so I'm getting a few chores done around the house, getting a few calls made. I love working at home and having the luxury to do that.

Hi, Lea! I did Chiseled Upper Body, too! I am amazed how much better in shape I felt doing it this week than last. I was able to use all of the same weights as Cathe did, except I stuck with 5s on the shoulder press to tricep extensions. And, I went up to 10s (instead of 8s) on the chest...

Hello! Today was Week 2, Level 1 of ICE, with Cardio 2 and Icy Core 2. I think I finally figured out how the DVDs work, so that I could get in the warm up, workout, abs, and then stretch, in that order. I am amazed that this particular DVD has at least 33 different ways you could do the...

Low Impact Cardio 1 today, then Abs 2. I found this the easiest of the ICE workouts I've done so far. But, I REALLY appreciated having everything low impact. I am so tired of programs where everything has to be about jumping; although it would be great to keep up, my body prefers it when I'm...

Today was To The Mat: Legs & Glutes. It was tough from the start. It is listed as 49 minutes, but I wonder if that really is the case? It seems to fly by. Also, as I was doing it, I kept wondering how many more exercises could she actually come up with on the mat? Well, turns out it is a...

Lea - Sounds intense. Look forward to trying next week.

Metabolic Total Body today. Can you say - WOW!? That workout was tough, and I actually had to pause the DVD 3 times to catch my breath. Those girls were swinging around 10s and 12s like it was no big deal. I had to go down on several, especially during the end. Once I am able to do that...

Lea - I liked the discus throw. But, what I found really weird was the move where you hold up one arm straight and you are bent over and you are moving the other weight up and down your leg (hope that makes sense). I couldn't really hold my arm up straight, but I did better on one side than...

Hi, Lea. I've done many BB programs over the years. Most recently, I did a 9+-week hybrid with Body Beast and PiYo. During that last week, I threw in 1 Brazil Butt Lift and 2 Turbo Fire workouts in. Yes, I'm doing Week 1, Level 1.

Lea - I think Cathe has charisma. She is so likeable and easygoing. I definitely like her style. A challenging workout today with Chiseled Upper Body and Icy Core 1. I had to go lower than Cathe on some of the moves -- and I thought I was in pretty good shape! I look forward to being able...

Day 1 - kickboxing. I liked this workout for a few reasons. It was low impact, but kept us moving the entire time, which my heart AND body liked. It was familiar to me - similar to some of the Beachbody workouts I've done. But, it had enough differences to keep it interesting. I like Cathe's...

Looking forward to starting tomorrow. I've been a bit lazy over vacation, skipping a workout on both Christmas and New Year's Day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi -- Is there a better thread for those getting ready to start a program?

Enjoy workouts of PiYo, weights, and walking. Low impact, as my 47-yo body doesn't always keep up with what my 47-yo mind wants it to!

Anyone starting ICE on Monday? I just got my program a couple of days ago, and this will be my FIRST Cathe program. I'm a little intimidated. I'm a Beachbody native - been doing their programs for years. I admit that I find the whole guide a bit hard to follow, and I'm not used to having to...
