    another newbie needs help!

    Hi again, If you want to concentrate on firming up, then I would recommend either the Power Hour workout or the Pure Strength series. The Bootcamp/Muscle Endurance and Kick Punch Crunch/Legs and Glutes DVDs are certainly good ones to have also. HTH! Josie

    another newbie needs help!

    Hi there! Although I've not received Cathe's latest workouts yet, I would certainly recommend that you start off with her beginner's step dvd because some of her previous step workouts contain quite complex choreography. I would also certainly recommend Kick Punch Crunch - in my opinion...

    My cancer ruined my 2 years of hard work

    I'm not Cathe either (obviously!), but I just wanted to say that although I couldn't even begin to imagine what you must have gone through to get to this stage, the very fact that you are at this stage means that you have determination and courage. At the start of this year, I was severely...

    Any premixes on new dvds?

    I've not received mine yet but was just wondering whether the dvds contained any premixes. Have a good weekend everyone! Josie :-)

    dvd advice needed please!

    RE: More info! Ah yes - the CTX series is also an excellent choice - I'd forgotten about that one! Thanks Annette, I'm really looking forward to getting over there :) Josie Edited to say: BTW, there is something very addictive about Cathe's workouts, so once you get a few DVDs - you...

    dvd advice needed please!

    RE: More info! Hi Andrea! Nice to see another Brit on here! I am currently in North Wales although I'm shortly due to emigrate to the US with my American husband. I too am fairly new to Cathe and mainly started off with the Bodyblast and Intensity series - I don't think you can go wrong...

    Occupations?

    I have been a Solicitor (attorney) in the UK for the past 6 years - and am thankfully about to give it all up in order to move to the US with my American husband on 11th July. This job has been way too stressful for me and frankly incredibly boring! Not sure what I'm going to do next, but am...

    Question about resistance bands

    Thanks for sharing your experiences on the band Jill and your well wishes for my pending move :) (I am getting very excited about the move now!) Can I just ask, what brand of band did you use at your martial arts school? Thanks again Josie

    Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

    I used to have symptoms of OCD when I was younger - I would have to count everything and could only finish my count on an even number, not an odd number.....sounds pretty crazy, I know. I don't do it now, but I do suffer with anxiety and the occasional panic attack. I don't think there is...

    Question about resistance bands

    Hi Cathe, I don't know if this has been asked before (my apologies if it has), but what brand of resistance bands are you using in the new workouts? Also, when filming the workouts, did you find that your muscles were being fatigued sufficiently compared to a weighted workout? The...

    Some advice please

    That's a fantastic idea about the tubing! And of course they will come in handy for the new workouts too! Thanks ever so much for that as well as your well wishes :-)

    Some advice please

    Hi Clare, Thanks for the words of encouragement....I know it will be a bit of a culture shock for a while - I guess during those 3 months I will just have to get out to a few classes and check out the gym and meet people. I will certainly see about making a make-shift step too - I'd not...

    anyone convert your old VHS to DVD's?

    http://www.videohelp.com/ This site is quite helpful on that sort of thing. I believe the easiest way is to use a digital camcorder to record off the vhs, then transfer to your pc that way. You then need to use a DVD authoring program such as TMPGEnc DVD Author(you can download a trial...

    Some advice please

    Hello everyone, I haven't posted in a while - been doing too much lurking! Anyway, I need a little bit of advice: I currently live in the UK, however I now have my visa to go and live in the USA. DH and I are both leaving the UK on 11th July. I am arranging for the removal people to...

    Overhead presses for shoulders on S&H

    I have been wondering that very same thing - however the next exercise for the rotator cuff using a lighter weight is (I believe) also only 2 sets, so perhaps it was intentional. I am quite glad it is only 2 sets though with the overhead press :-) Josie

    Imax2 BlastMania Premix

    I did the Blastmania for the first time ever today - what a great workout - and Blast 9 still gets me every time! I enjoyed it so much and really feel that I've had a good cardio workout, despite the relatively short length of the workout. I hope Cathe produces workouts in the future that have...
