    the gym vs exercise vids

    I had a gym membership one summer while in college because I wanted to start using weight machines in my workouts, but found I became tired of being hit on by old men who were just there to socialize. I also hated it when people tried to give me form pointers that I didn't need or were wrong...

    Feeling fat already

    I've been feeling the same way! I've definitely been snacking on bad snacks with the onset of the cold weather and I've just missed two days of workouts due to being sick. I HATE feeling like this :( Let's just all try to do our best to stay on track with good eating and good workouts as much as...

    Disney Road Trip

    Obviously I'm not Cathe (:)) but I remember reading that SNM Videos said once their workload calms down a bit, they would post the rest of the Disney Pics and the Glassboro pics on Flickr. I'm assuming they might still be bogged down with customer service issues related to the new series? I'm...

    Amazing My 120 pound journey

    Wow, I almost cried watching that. Very inspiring. I just love seeing people take control of their lives and going and getting what they want.

    LIS helping the "pear-shaped" gal

    I have been noticing the same thing with this series. Those discs are so effective for thigh work! Gets the inner thigh so well.

    Cathe's 2010 Intensity Workout?

    LOVE Intensity!! Definitely extremely tough, I'm always grateful for the low impact HiiT at the end, which really isn't all that much of a break, but it's a break from the jumping lol. I actually didn't love this one immediately, so give it a few tries if you're not in love on the first try...

    Brenda is the Star of Cycle Max!

    I think I remember reading that she is certified to teach spin. She looks so awesome in the whole series!

    Low Impact Series: What were they thinking?

    Great response, Cathe! I feel my core has gotten a ton of work in this series with all the mountain climbers and other plank moves. It's actually a little sore right now! Love love love this series!

    Youngest and oldest Cathletes!

    I'm 27, and I've been doing Cathe workouts since 2005. What a life and body changing 6 years it's been! :)

    Not sure where to start

    I found that my body tightened up when I added in more heavy strength training into my workout schedule. Cathe's weight DVDs rock - I would personally recommend Muscle Max, High Reps, and the Gym Style series if you don't have them already. Also, like Debbie said above, making sure you have...

    Athletic training

    Definitely a favorite! (I feel like I say that about all of them lol)

    Advice needed on Nov LIS rotation

    Hi Jill, I think you'd be fine. The most common weights I used were 5 and 8 pound dumbbells and a 15 lb. dumbbell for the deadlifts. And Cathe even recommended using no weight at all or light weight for some of the moves if it was your first time doing them, particular the deadlift exercise. I...

    Gym Flooring

    Hi Kellie, I just did Turbo Barre on the flooring and it was awesome! I am looking forward to trying a step workout on it since it's a no-slip surface. The sliding discs don't work on it (which I knew) but I have an area rug to put down over the flooring for workouts that require those. I...

    What have I signed up for? Waivers!

    LOL wow that is one serious 5K!

    Low impact series and body changes

    I definitely am noticing that my cardiovascular capacity is being challenged in a completely new way. Doing cardio in plank position and on unstable, sliding discs is WAY harder than I ever would have imagined. I have only been doing the workouts for about a week, so no noticable changes yet...

    "Cathe makes you sweat"

    LOL that is so cute! I would say AfterBurn is a must, as well as Slide and Glide & Athletic Training.

    Gym Flooring

    We just put gym flooring down in our basement in our workout space. It's the same type you'd see on the main weight room floor in a gym. I haven't worked out on it yet, but will tomorrow, so I'll let you know how I like it. Definitely love the look and I think it will be good because we won't...
