    Least Favorite Cathe Workout?

    I have a weird history with Cathe workouts that I hate at first.....I usually wind up loving them. I sold Kick Max and Low Max 2x and wound up really liking them and I absolutely thought I was going to sell 4DS. BUt, once again, I wound up loving HIS and LIS. BUT, I STILL DO NOT LIKE BOOT...

    I finally "caved"

    I wasn't planning on ordering because STS just seemed too intense for me. But I'm so into the slow and heavy series now and lifting heavier that I thought "why not"? PLUS.......and this is my biggest reason for ordering.....I'm going to July's Road Trip and I know I'd feel so miserable with...

    Will there ALWAYS be a "modifier" using just dumbells or the barbell?

    I wasn't planning on ordering STS because of all the new equipment on the blog....to be honest I'm rather intimidated by it because there's no way I can order more since I live in a tiny NYC apt. and I purposely don't belong to a gym. BUt, if there is a "modifier" who is constantly "on camera" I...

    I registered!!!!

    I'm number 97.......and cannot tell you how excited I am. I woke up at 11:59p.m. (because I left at 2:00a.m. this morning on a plane trip and crashed) and was positive I would not "make it" because my computer was taking forever to boot and of course I screwed up a little with my info...

    Okay, What's the story behind your Cathe name?

    I live on the upper west side of Manhatan! I started using it at The Firm site years ago (haven't been "there") in ages and decided to keep it.

    Who HASN'T ordered STS?

    I haven't ordered and I'm really proud of myself for showing restraint. I love Cathe's workouts and am very happy for everyone who has ordered and is "into" the whole concept, but it really doesn't feel "right" for me at all. Am I crazy for not wanting bigger biceps? My upper body gets way...

    Thank God for the Timesaver DVD

    I am finally recovering from a week long illness and have been unable to work out. Basically, I've done nothing but lay in bed and go to the doctor this past week. But, this morning I finally had the energy to work out and I didn't know which one to do. So, I figured I might as well use the...

    taking a break from Cathe-long

    I can totally relate to your post. I had begun to really start dreading working out. Just the thought of getting all my equipment out to workout was annoying me each morning. And, I'm also not excited at all about Cathe's new system. It just doesn't sound like a good "fit" for me. I think...

    Airbrush Tan

    I had this done last year and I don't think it was worth the money. When it started to fade, I had very weird "fading." Generally speaking, I think a tan looks great on those who are under 35 (big generalization). I HATE the really tan look on women over 40. I think it makes us look older. Now...

    At what time do you exercise?

    I wake up at 5:00 a.m. Have my coffee and breakfast (I'm soooo used to eating at that time now) and workout at 5:30. I always try to be asleep by 10:00 the latest. I really couldn't imagine working out after work or in the evening. I love doing it first thing and then feeling energized for...
