That is one of my favorite workouts!

Shilo - I'm short too. I do the step portions on the lowest rung of my step - to be honest with you, I've never measured it! I get a great aerobic workout and it's easy on my knees. When I do leg presses I just raise the step to the highest it goes - then depending on how I feel, I just...

Why don't you still schedule bodymax but break it up over a couple of days - do the two step portions on one day - that would count as cardio and lower body - than on the next day do the strength portion and tack on a cardio workout? "Just a suggestion, take it or leave it." Cathe Friedrich.

Yes, Cardio and Weights is the easier of the three - however, it is IMHO an intermediate/advanced tape so be prepared to start with light weights - also, the DVD is fantastic - one of my favorite cardio workouts is the all step portion pre-mix. The music is great too.

Thanks Shilo for the words of encouragement! I am going to do the tape next time as filmed. By the way - I just did Power Hour - LOL - I forgot how hard it is - I'm loving the Cathe endurance rotation - when I'm done I'm going to attempt her fat loss definition one - Bodymax is scheduled in...

Well, I did it this morning reversed - I was exhausted by the end of the second step section - but I had enough energy for the strength training. I think the next time I do it I'll try it the way it was filmed and compare. Considering this was the first time I've done the entire tape I'm...

I'm doing the Cathe endurance rotation -tomorrow I am attempting Bodymax all the way through - I usually use it as 3 workouts. I am thinking of reversing it and doing the strength portion first and then doing the two cardios back to back. Anyone else do it this way? I'm think of doing...

I was going to post a question as to whether I should get the terminator but think this thread answered it - yes? Today I did the bootcamp/muscle endurance combo pre-mix on the DVD. I loved it. It was exactly the kind of workout I needed - a little cardio and the endurance and weight work...

RE: where did cathe buy that ball used in the Intensity Series? bumping. I too want to know what size ball you use if you are on the short size.

Wow, that is inspirational! I could never look like that - no matter how many Cathe tapes I did a week -

Diane Sue - What kind of results did you get? Thanks.

I was reading the June rotation. I only have the P/s Series. I like to combine Muscle endurance and strength. Would this work? Alternating - one week the week with the P/S rotation with one of the weeks of the Cathe Muscle Endurance rotation? Any thoughts? I'm not much of a rotation...

I have the intensity series and don't use the ball. I've been debating on whether to get one - now I think I will Question - I'm short 4'11" - any other "shorties" out there? What size ball do you use? I think I'll get one in anticipation of the bodyblast series. Thanks.

Deborah - when you say your arms are incredible - in what way? I'm looking for definition as well as strength - but I don't want significant size. Thanks.

I can only do the first 5 intervals.(or the 6 - 10 pre-mix) In fact, I prefer to make my own 20 -30 minute workout with the mix and match option on the DVD. This is one tough workout - I figure if I can make it through 30 minutes I'm doing okay. I don't think I'll ever be able to get...

Anyone doing the Pyramid down from PUB? I've only done it once and was just curious if I should start doing it more?

I used the middle of Bodymax as a cardio and leg workout too! I recently did the first and second section together. I was really wiped - One weekend wben I have lots of energy, I am going to try this - reverse the tape - warm up, do the weight workout and then see if I can do the first and...

RE: Will the stability ball be absolutely necessary in ... Thanks Iris. I have the intensity series too and follow the girl in the back too. I have to assume that the new series will be like this too?

Hi Cathe! I already pre-ordered the series but I was just wondering if you will have modifications, like in the intensity series, if you don't have a ball. I just don't have any more room in my fitness area for another piece of equipment. Thanks.

Lauri - you can't go wrong with this workout. AND - once you master it - you will find that other step tapes from other instructors will seem easy! Oh, beware - this is the tape that started me on my Cathe obsession - (happily) - now I have to pop over to the home page and pre-order. Will...
