    XTRAIN guide

    Mind my question, but this is something I really want to know: will there be a user's guide, like with STS,so that we would be able to get the maximum benefit? I mean... from the infos we have so far we won't stick to a specific pattern as in STS, but I am pretty sure there is a suggested way to...

    You genius!!! 6 tabatas all together, may I ask in which order did you put them? After reading your post I started to think of a good sequence but I am really interested in your opinion / experience. And thank you for the accurate review, esp the advice about the number of towels...I think I...

    To the Max: 2 thumbs up!

    Well you have 2 low impact premixes, in the first one you have the solid step portion which could be easily modified into low impact, and then you have a slide and glide tabata segment. The second option is slide and glide tabata only and it is shorter. Or, if you have the downloads,you can use...

    Cross-Fire/To the max Tabata premixes question

    Hi Cathe and crew, I have just one question about the intensity of the tabata premixes. I may be wrong, but I remember reading about how Cathe explained that it was so difficult to obtain the right level of intensity in a dvd workout to name it real tabata, now I've seen how short are some of...

    NO EQUIPMENT bodyweight-only DVD

    Great idea Strongfitgirl! I would buy a DVD like that immediately, I know Cathe will make me sweat and beg for mercy even without equipment! Plus, it will be a good way to confuse muscles! I second your request!

    great rotation! I will invert the order of the weeks due to work schedule, I think this won't decrease my results, as long as I keep moving and do some of my Cathe! ;)

    We're In This Together **JUNE**

    Just forgot to ask one thing; I'm experiencing muscle fatigue probably beacause I've been sick, do you eat and or drink something special (a part from protein shake) to speed up muscle recovery?It happens with cardio mainly, like if I had low level of fuel to complete a workout...Thanks in...

    Hello girls! How are you all? I see some of you have embraced the biggest challenge, STS! Way to go, Natty and JT!I was talking about STS last night with DH, he seemed to be interested...but consistency is not his best quality, so I don't think he'll be able to stick with such a long term...

    In praise of Yoga Relax!!

    I totally agree with you! I find it excellent to ease the stiffness off esp after many hours spent sitting in my car. I don't love yoga, so this is just enough for me and it gets the job done easily and quickly!
