Hi Cathe, THANK YOU so much for these awesome new workouts! I've done all of them already (got them Tuesday and held off my workout till they came, LOL) except for the core segment on Lower Impact Step. I was planning to do that one this morning but I just couldn't concentrate on the core...

I've done Higher Intensity Step (and Back & Chest) (forgive me, but I had to jump in without a preview... shame on me), plus I've previewed Boot Camp... :P Lots more to go!! Bernadette :-)

I didn't run the Chicago Marathon (WAY too far for me to run) but I did run the Army Ten-Miler (in Washington DC) this weekend. Someone died in the Army Ten-Miler this year too... Really sad. The big thing this year was the heat and the fact that they didn't have enough water to compensate...

I know a lot about the Power 90 (original) workouts... In fact, a round of P90 was my "induction to fitness." From there I moved on to The Firm, then the Power 90 Master Series, and finally to Cathe. What exactly would you like to know about Power 90? Bernadette

Doing it "as produced" was better (I like the 3-way splits, even 4, 5, and 6-way splits), but doing the timesavers for an "all upper" heavy day was a good workout. I still got DOMS from the timesavers! It just depends on what body part split you're trying to do. Bernadette

Yes, the timesavers include the band work. I just did this very thing on Thursday (timesavers of both upper body workouts done together - BTW, it clocks in at around 62 minutes doing C/T first, without the ending stretch and then BSB without the warm-up). What is deleted is one set of every...

I did a rotation like this several months back. My rotation went something like this: Monday: Cardio combined w/ lower body (circuit or separate) Ideas: LIC Lower Body Circuit; BM2 Scrambled Eggs; Muscle Max Lower only (premix) + Step Blast short premix; PLB standing work + MIC step; PLB...

Sorry, double post.

I'd LOVE a copy!! Thank you SO much for all the work!!! [email protected] Bernadette

Carol, I grew up in Wilmington - lived there a total of about 27 years of my life. We got married in the little chapel in Elkton too! 15 years ago... Bernadette

I live right outside of North East (Cecil County). Bernadette

My favorite is sparkpeople.com. Bernadette

I'd have to recommend Low Impact Step. I've been using Cathe's workouts for about a year now. I tried to start out with Rhythmic Step but found that the workout wasn't much use as a cardio if I was just standing next to my step, laughing (at myself, at the tv)! Then I bought Basic Step. In...

Looks good... where do you buy it? Bernadette

Premix: Timesaver Cardio 43 minutes Warm up Bonus cardio Repeat bonus cardio Power circuit #1 (step & blast) Power circuit #2 (step & blast) Power circuit #3 (step & blast) Power circuit #4 (step & blast) Stretch Bernadette

Silly question... I want to order The Step. Does the offer for free shipping, if you get in on the preorders, apply for non-DVD items? Anyone know? Thanks! Bernadette

I'm an "ex" Firmie!! I used The Firm religiously for a good long time. They got me started, their style was nothing to "sneeze" at, but after a while I needed something more. What Cathe has done for me (and my body!!!!) The Firm never could come close to doing. I still haven't parted with my...

Could be considered cheating, but after using S&H Legs once or twice, I decided to sub (entirely) with L&G or B&G. PLB would be another good one. I like using more endurance-based work on my lower body, but strength-based lifting for my upper body. Bernadette

I find that what works for me is eating 6 times a day, about 3 hours in between meals/snacks. I eat "clean" as much as possible, and eating often helps me in so many ways throughout the day. Ironically, it seems that when I do stick to 6 times a day, I have no problems sticking with 1400-1500...
