    Morning workouts, how do you motivate yourself....

    to get out of bed? I really want to workout in the morning to have more time during the day for my 2 toddlers and other stuff. Every night I go to bed with good intentions, but as soon as the alarm goes off - I roll over and tell myself I will workout later. Any good tips to get my lazy self...

    love the premixes on the Hardcore DVDs!!

    Thanks Cathe for the great new dvds. I absolutely love the premixes on all of the ones I have tried. With 2 little kids under the age of 3, it is hard to find more than 45 minutes for me to workout. I thought I would miss the workout blender, but the premixes are perfect. Great job on all of...

    Help me get my motivation back!

    What really helps to motivate me is if I log on to Cathe's website right as I am deciding whether I feel like working out. I look at a couple pics and read a couple threads, then it motivates me. But then I tell myself that I can do any workout I want and any length of time. Even if I just do...

    Organized people: How do you do it all?

    I feel like you do. I am a sahm of a 2 yr old and 6 mos. old baby. I feel like I am off running errands daily or at a playgroup, etc. I used to be a lot more organized. Now I find that if I workout while the kids are sleeping at naptime, other things get neglected (like cleaning the house)...

    During Step Blast, the soles of feet were burning and numb...

    I was wearing New Balance ankle socks (bought them for working out) and Ryka Nitracel sneakers. My sneakers are only worn indoor and about a 1 1/2 years old. But during that year and a half I was pregnant and didn't workout very much. My feet felt almost like the numbness from pins and...

    All this Terminator discussion....

    I love Imax Extreme. I just did it a couple days ago for the first time. I sweat a ton during it and my legs really felt it when it was done.

    number of risers on mini step

    I use the Firm's plastic 14" high step for HSTA. It isn't a problem for slipping bec during the high intensity sections, you only use the 8"inch portion of the high step. It does work for me and I have not had a problem. The straddle taps aren't bad, bec you are really supposed to be light on...

    Hardcore Premix Update 9/20/04

    I agree, having the premix time is a huge help. Sometimes I only have 40 min. and I choose my premix based on that time slot.

    Hardcore Premix Update 9/20/04

    RE: Shorter premixes Love your premixes Cathe. I also like shorter premixes. Being a mom of 2 little ones, I don't often have 60 + minutes to do a workout. So I really like the premixes that are 40-55 minutes long. I really like a shorter version of the original workout for those busy days.

    Kickboxing workouts

    Its funny, I thought Cardio Kicks was easier than KPC. I sold it bec I didn't like it much, but I am thinking I didn't give it a fair chance.

    FIRMie looking for a good starting video

    I think you would love the Intensity Series. I used to do the Firm and switched to Cathe. My first Cathe dvd was Bootcamp and Muscle Endurance. You will love Bootcamp bec it is a lot of cardio mixed in with muscle sculpting. But I think you should get the Terminator bec all 3 workouts are a...

    I looooooove terminator

    I just got my Terminator dvd this week and I love it also! It is funny you say that after Viper you feel like your butt is smaller. After I did it, I was feeling like my butt was lifted! Very glad I made the purchase!

    Question about a defective video

    One time I called customer service about changing my order and they left were going to call me back. Never heard back from them. A month later, I emailed them, and I got a response about 8 hours later that same day.

    WHICH DVD C &W OR STEP BLAST?

    I have them both but haven't used Step Blast that much yet. But Imax2 I use a lot and it is great!! By the end of the workout, my legs are exhausted. So I definitely think this is great for weight loss. I think it is the 9th interval that really kills me!

    Pre-Order

    Thanks Ruth! They did end up responding shortly after I posted the message. I was just getting nervous because I wanted to buy those extra dvds before the prices went up again. They let me cancel my other order thankfully.

    Pre-Order

    How did you contact them to do this? I have called and emailed and no response yet. I have changed my mind and want to preorder the entire lot instead of 5 of the dvds.

    HSTA and High Step Circuit (beg/intermediate)- need both?

    I ordered HSTA and am awaiting its arrival. Is there any reason to have this and High Step Circuit or are they basicly the same workout geared at different levels of exercise?

    OK...need advise from Cathe experts!

    My vote is for the Intensity Series also, and KPC is also a must for me. Love all of these workouts. I need to work on getting some of her older DVDS.

    foot pain?

    I get this when my shoes are either too tight or too narrow for my feet. I used to have that pain all the time, even when I wasn't wearing my sneakers. Until a shoe salesman told me it is bec I was wearing narrow sneakers (NIKE at that time). I switched to a wider sneaker and I rarely have...
