I wonder when they'll be available OnDemand??

I live in South Africa, where wifi is not that stable, so this may be the problem. I often cannot play most Cathe on-demand videos over wifi in my gym. I get a message saying there is 'an error'. (I can almost NEVER play Cathe live over the same network). This problem is particularly frequent...

I am very surprised that STS isn't mentioned here. That is precisely a strength and potentially muscle-building program. And the most comprehensive that Cathe has (and one of the most thorough on the video market.) I am SO glad Cathe hasn't jumped on the diet plan bandwagon. It is so individual.

I wonder why running is not OK after HR, but plyo/hi impact is?What's the rationale?... (Following because I am looking at a partial knee replacement in not-so-distant future.)

H hi, I'm using an iPhone 7

I am a subscriber but am unable to play any of the videos. I always get an error message after pressing play. I also have OnDemand APP, and use that without any problems. Do you have any advice? (I've deleted and re-downloaded the app 3 times already).

Yes, Thank you! I was just looking up contraindicated exercises to severe degenerative disc... Also found this: https://www.unm.edu/~lkravitz/Teaching%20Aerobics/YoungExercise3.pdf

Gypsymom, Hi! For reference, how much exercise are you doing? And how much food are you eating? I think these two factors play a vital role.

I am a long time (heavy) lifter who was recently diagnosed with severe degenerative disc disease (basically, NO disc left) at L4/L5. I have mild spinal stenosis. I've seen 4 surgeons. ALL recommend no deadlifts. That said, I have also read strength coaches on the subject. I continue to do RDLs...

I hate to discourage you, but cardio, esp. steady state cardio, after strength training has been shown to negate strength gains.... it can also elevate cortisol (as mentioned), which may cause water retention and encourage fat retention. Kill the extra cardio. It's not helping! Instead, I...

Well, yes, theoretically. But my point is that I am UNABLE to watch the Blender videos using data or wireless. This is for Blender only -- on demand works fine. This is an ongoing problem. I haven't been able to watch any blender videos outside of home for a year.

I am a Cathe Live/On Demand subscribers who cannot access Workout Blender outside of her home. I often workout with Cathe in the gym, and my Blender videos will not play. Ever. Any ideas?

Thanks, Forum Admin! Very helpful! Elsie - thanks, too, for your reply. Since it is really impossible to make major strength gains while also pursuing fat loss (unless you are VERY new to lifting), the Administrator's response helps to explain how you might use MM for either effort. I will...

what is the purpose of the MMs? Endurance? I want to know how they would fit into a progressive training program?

Comparison is the thief of joy. No matter how hard anyone tries, they will NEVER look like Kelly Ripa, because they are NOT Kelly Ripa (interestedly, I've never thought about Kelly Ripa until now..) One thing that I love about being in my 40s is that I'm sooooo much wiser about what women's...

Thanks a lot! I will check out saved premixed. I've tried the blender, but my internet connection is very slow and somehow the blender doesn't play smoothly... (I live in S. Africa, and have no internet option .. there's a monopoly here)

This looks like SO much fun. I didn't think I'd be interested in this series, as I really like the word 'advanced', LOL, but I can't wait to do this. ... I am looking forward to Cathe's suggestions on how to program these into an advanced workout routine. THANKS, Cathe!

I am a rather new on-demand customer and am hoping someone will help me find the XTRAIN (And other series!) premixes on the system? I have all Cathes DVDs actually, but I often workout in a gym for the flooring, and can't figure out how to find individual premixes. THANKS!

Hi Elsie, I want to add to my post above by saying that it's not just the equipment involved that limits the intensity of weight involved in training with Cathe's programs (with the exception of STS meso 2/3), it is also the timing/count of the reps. I think a squat rack will be a huge help to...

The fact is that you don't need ANY exercise to lose weight. And if you're 'sculpting' (by this, I believe you mean that you are looking for great muscle definition, either by losing fat OR by gaining muscle), then you need to lift heavy. 30 minutes of cardio is not necessary on a daily basis...
