My first Cathe's workouts were Step heat (the very first), Power Max and Low Max, bought as digital downloads. I started with her a year ago, and used a small,4 " step too.Then preogressed towards tougher workouts (as HIIT, Intensity, Imax) and then this summer bought also a 'regular' 6-8 "...

I do the same :o and it works very well for me because this way I avoid falling from the step :o:D Long hops: I have Power max, in which she repeats this move many times so I got used to that pretty soon, but the ladies up here gave you wonderful explanations about that. Ricochet: it took me...

I have step heat which is very simple to follow and to me it's also less intense if compared to Intensity, I bought it as my first dd and was very helpful to learn Cathe's moves. I also like Power max, which is more challenging. You may also like the Imaxes : I have Imax 2 and 3 and they are so...

Hi mini-natty! I was born in the north of Italy (Milan area) but then got married and moved to Reggio Emilia (more ore less 70 Km away from Bologna). where are your parents from? Don't tell me about Christmas Eve/Christmas Lunch: for DH and I are 2 days in which we try to avoid eating to much...

What a beautiful picture of a happy mother and her two lovely sons! I hope you spent a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Thank you Lainabania and Bethj! I would have never come up with yoga blocks!! :o I'll surely give it a try next time I attempt doing those! Bethj, you're so right: even if I weight less than 130 I still think that if I was lighter I could do them more easily!:D

Hello everybody! Is there anyone who can give me some hints on how to tackle this pose?I know it's mainly ab work, but was wondering if there was a pattern to follow to build up to that as to me it seems impossible to do:o:D thanks for your help!

You'll be in my prayer Jt! Big hugs!

I love to read about Thanksgiving too,as here in Italy we don't do that.And I was scared too of all of those calories :D but very interested in the last 2 newsletters because it must be a beautiful celebration and a great way to start Christmas time.I hope all of you Cathletes are having a great...

:D yes, but what I like about his recent visits is that finally I seem to have broken a plateaux, and something is happening in my lower half even if not too noticeable yet...and above all I can go lower while doing push-ups! This is a great conquer for me and I've never been so happy of my Doms...

Hi mini-natty! I experienced the same at the very beginning when 2 years ago or so,I did my first barre workout(which wasn't by Cathe).It's all a matter of consitency and patience, everything will come together with time ;) btw, the killer to me is always the Hiit 40/20: when it comes to...

I've done slide and glide for the first time on Friday and I experienced very new DOMS: I felt sore in my upper/outer thigh like never before and then this morning, while doing cardio supersets....Bang! I realized that thanks to the discs and those planks/ mountain climbers I've been using my...

thanks for sharing this! I've been having DOMS in my thighs like never before but as I received my discs just a few days ago haven't really started the official rotation yet. Btw, I'm also interested in the question Annabelle2 did and if you've been doing a special rotation please share, I'll be...

Hi Epcot chick! I experienced the very same thing the first time I did turbobarre. After a few times it became easier even if always challenging. I think it's because your legs become stronger every time you train so it will take a little while. As for the distance from thechair, I've noticed...

I love this workout greatly too! It's fast paced, well sequenced and I also love the music and the legs drills: I think it' s really complete and super versatile :) And,Jt, intensity is amazing: to me it's really challenging but when I'm finished with that I feel I can face everything in my...

Oh my!I got my discs yesterday so tried 10 minutes of slide and glide to get used to that and had so much fun that today I couldn't resist any longer and did after burn: fantastic, amazing workout! Time flew by interval after interval...At the 20 minute mark started to wonder if I could really...

Ditto to that, bpurcell! Low impact cardio is my best medicine against doms:they won't disappear but will surely become much more bearable :)

I tried premix #5 which consists of the blast and bonus:quick,effective, easy to follow and so much fun!:-)

I downloaded it once again and now everything works well. Thank you for the suggestion!

Hi Cathe and everybody! I have a question about these two workouts: I know that Afterburn is classified as a low impact HIIT workout, but I find it very similar to Cardio supersets. So my question is: does Cardio Supersets provide the same after-burn benefits or the intensity is too low to...
