    Heart Rate Question...

    Merry Christmas to you too! Actually, sometimes when I workout with Cathe and do, say Imax 3 blasts only premix, I use the Mix and Match, which actually does stop on its own. I like to do certain blasts two times, rather than the premix as is. So I count outloud for 15-20 seconds then I go to...

    Heart Rate Question...

    Hi! No, it is not a problem to pause your CD player to catch your breath. If you are trying to complete a higher impact DVD and it is still challenging, actually stopping is good becuase you are forcing your body to continue to improve. Meaning, you are increasing your fitness abilities with...

    Workout first thing in the morning.... what about breakfast????

    I also have had this problem so I talked with my nutritionist. He told me to have some oatmeal before doing cardio. Here is what I have been doing and it works great. 1/3 cup oatmeal + ~1/4 scoop whey protein. Mix it together hot...tastes really good. Not too much food, but the oatmeal...

    Digestive Problems

    Hey everyone! Happy Holidays! Just a quick question...I have been having some GI problems around my exercise time. I am not exactly sure why. It could be from several sources--too much training, the food I am eating, or maybe I am coming down with something. Anyways, I was wondering what...

    DVD preference

    As I mentioned in my post, I take bits and pieces of the workouts and make my own workouts....the premixes...so No, I did not do all these workouts. I took the blasts and made my own workout. Trust me, all thoses workouts would be WAY TOO MUCH!!! I love doing certain blasts (the hard ones)...

    DVD preference

    Hi everyone! Just a quick question...I was wondering what you all preferred between step portion of BM2 and the new HIS from the 4DS. I don't really ever do, what I call step...I usually take bits and pieces of Cathe's workouts and do my own mish-moshes (i.e. blasts only or the power circuit...

    Cathe curious about performance Eating Clean question?

    Hi! ACtually, no. You should see improved performance with each workout as long as you continue with the good eating. Again, remember: your body is engine and proper fuel will make it go longer!! Kristen

    Cathe, I'm totally confused now....

    Cathe, Hi! I am reading all the blogs right now and I just want to again thank you for all that you do. I "discovered" you last November with K,P,C and ever since then I have been hooked. I love all your workouts and love to make different mish-moshes out of both the cardio and weights. You...

    Cathe curious about performance Eating Clean question?

    Hi! I am not Cathe, but I do have a certification in nutrition. Yes, performance is always better if you have better eating. Your body is like a car and needs proper nutrition to run effectively. You should supply your "engine" with enough fuel (calories) coming from wholesome foods like...

    body max 2 question

    I have actually never done the step portion of the workout. I love the power circuit segement with or without the weights (cardio fusion) and I love the double upper body premix. I am now trying to expand on my Cathe workouts and was wondering which workout you prefer between BM2 step portion...

    Kickboxing,kickboxing,kickboxing

    Did you go far enough into Kick Max to get to the blast challenge? I agree that the first part of the workout is a bit slow and not too challenging, but the blast challenge is wonderful. Lots of plyo jumping. It really gets your HR up there! ALso, you really ought to take a look at K,P,C...

    This is for Cathe...

    Cathe, Hi! Actually I do have a nutritionist. He is a professional bodybuilder out of Rochester New York. I bascially do my own workouts and utilize him for the nutrition part. I am already quite strong, with muscles, I am just a little compact!! This is why I was asking about how you got...

    This is for Cathe...

    Cathe, thank you for the reply. I am already very muscular...just a little petite! As I siad previously, I love your Hard Core series. Yesterday I made my own arm workout using triceps from C&T and biceps from BSB. OMG! My arms are SOOOO sore! }( So, just keep eating a higher protein diet...

    Are there Cathe dvds that you hardly ever use?

    Personally, for me I have never really gotten into any of Cathe's low impact workouts. I have Low Max, which I don't like (except for a few of the blasts--for legs)and I just can't seem to click with LIC either. I love the weight portion of LIC, though, and have made my own personal workouts...

    This is for Cathe...

    Cathe, I am an avid fan of yours. I stopped going to the gym because I get more out of your workouts, both cardio and weights. I am also an aspiring figure competitor. I love your physique in the HardCore Series. Could you share with me or at least give me some clues on how you got to that...

    IMAX3 Premixes? Has anyone done them ? Like them?

    Hi! This is one of my favorite workouts. Actually, I have never done the workout as is. When I first got the DVD I thought the choreography was too complex so I just taught myself how to do the blast only premix. I LOVE IT!! So challenging, yet, what a rush!! I combine the blasts only...
