    Any Guys Out There? 9-26 weekend

    Hey guys- Hard to get to the computer these days. Just barely enough time to workout, but I'm still getting them in. Lo Max yesterday - I forgot how much the intensity builds through the workout. Super tough, and super fun. I love that 7th step portion - 1/2 kickboxing, 1/2 step. I'd...

    Any Guy's out there ? 9-24

    Hey guys Do workout today, just about to give the kids a bath, but I did GS Legs on Monday, and GS Chest/Triceps yesterday. I thought I would get the push ups this time, but ended up doing 16, 14, 11, 5, 3, and the rest on my knees. Someday I'll get them all. I also upped my weight s for...

    Gym Style Series

    (Not Cathe, of course) But, Last I heard, they were not planning that. I got them this summer, and I think they are my favorite weight series. So... even if they don't end up on one disc, I highly recommend them. Ben

    Any Guys Out There 9/19

    Welcome aboard! There are a few of us who check in here from time to time (although I suspect there are more lurking in the wings...). It's good to hear from you. What are some of your Cathe favorites? I just got her gym style workouts this summer, and really enjoy them. I also think her...

    Any Guys Out There? 9-18

    Hey there- I did Amy Bento's Advanced Step Challenge 2, and kind of forgot what a tough workout it is. I remembered the tough choreography, but it's hard too. Heart Rate Monitor said 1065 calories! Ben

    Any Guys Out There? 9-16 Hello..?

    Hey Guys- Kinda quiet over here for a while... I did high step challenge, and did every push up as a full body push up. It has taken over a year to be able to do full sets of push ups, and I think I am finally getting there. I figure I better step it up after seeing disc 1 of STS. Was...

    Any Guys Out There? 9-15

    Hey guys- I did Imax 1 with no cheating at all. My head is spinning, but I feel very accomplished. I think I used to fudge a bit on those squats, but not today. Ben

    Any Guys Out There? 9-12

    Hey guys- Didn't think I'd have any time today, but I squeezed in the 13 minutes of 4DS shoulders. Better than nothing, right? Ben

    Hey guys- Did 4DS kickbox weights first premix. Fun workout, and I really like this weights first stuff. Have you seen the new calendar? Nice with the DVD pictures. Ben

    4DS Kickbox

    It kind of seems like KPC lite (as in short, not intesity, doesn't it?) I literally am just finishing the premix with weights first. I always did cardio first, but in the last week switched to weights first. I figured I would be too tired for the cardio, but I actually feel extra warmed up...

    Wanna Chat here in Ask Cathe

    Cathe, Cathe Cathe!!! Great to hear from you. It seems like you are adding more and more things to your site/program/products/life all the time. I'm in the middle of doing 4DS again, and I'm enjoying it so much. The quality of the workouts and the filming are fantastic. I know STS is...

    Any Guys Out There? 9-9

    Hey guys- I did 4DS bootcamp and bi/tri today, but with weights first. I never do that, but I really enjoyed it. I almost always do cardio first, but thought I'd give it a try. I figured I'd be wiped for the bootcamp stuff, but actually just felt extra warmed up to really go for it. Who...

    Why do you think collage...

    Why doesn't collage videos call more of Cathe's videos "Staff Favorites"? Low Max, Imax 3, Drill Max? Am I missing something, or are these three of the best workouts ever filmed? What's the deal? Ben

    "Any guys out there" 9-8

    Hey guys- I did most of the first disc of 4DS. Lower and Higher Intensity Step, and Back/Chest. I'm trying to turn the 4 day split into a three day split because I can't workout Wed or Fri (unless I do it in the AM). Dripping with sweat, but had a great time. Ben

    IMAX2/Cardio & Weights

    Here's the march '08 rotation - and the first three days are all step. Of course two of them are low impact, which I think is why it works. Actually, the first week has 4 setp workouts. Fine with me! Ben http://www.thecathenation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=236730

    IMAX2/Cardio & Weights

    If I remember right - and I'll see if I can find them, Cathe had some rotations earlier this year that had three days of step followed by three days of weights. Also, C&W has less strain on the joints for the step portion than Imax 2 does. I think doing all three Imaxes back to back would be a...

    Any Guys Out There? 9-5

    Hey Guys- Two hours left for me of 9-5, but I thought I'd post anyway. I did Rhythmic Step today in the AFTERNOON!, which was a little slice of heaven after those early morning workouts. I don't think I'll be attempting exercising early mornings next week. This weekend looks like 4DS...

    Low Impact Circuit

    On my DVD remote, there is an "Audio" button that will allow me to switch between the audio tracks. There are three ways to hear this workout, and maybe your player (or the DVD) is picking the wrong one, even though you are doing it right. See if you have that button on your remote. (Or it...

    "Any guys out there?" 8-4

    Hey guys- I did most of 4DS - Bootcamp/Bi/Tri this morning. Still really thinking about these morning workouts. I feel like I could get more out of a 1/2 hr workout in the afternoon rather than 70 minutes in the morning. I just can't focus. I'll see, I guess. This morning I only did two of...
