Sweet baby boy You both look beautiful together, Cathe and Eric. Love that sleepy face. Is there anything better than a baby's smile? Cathe, I'm curious -- does any of your post-partum exercise routine include chasing down Hampton with used burp cloths in his mouth? My two pups used to keep...

Cathe gave you the inspiration, But YOU did the work. Congratulations on all that you have accomplished. You must feel great about how far you have come and what a good role model you are providing for your FOUR! kids. It sounds as if you also are blessed with a supportive and caring family...

<center><font size="1" color="#ff0000">LAST EDITED ON Jan-25-00 AT 02:42PM (EST)</font></center> Trevor -- and anyone else out there who is new to Body Max -- I know you just ordered Body Max, but I'm curious to know if it's arrived yet and if so, what you think of it. This is one of those...

Copying this from a newspaper article TO build strength: 3-6 reps, 1-2 sets, rest 5 minutes between sets. To build muscle: 8-12 reps, 3-5 sets, rest 1-2 minutes between sets. To build endurance: 12-20 reps, 6 to 12 sets, 30 secs rest between sets. This ran in Investors Business Daily...

Agree with Erica If you start out just doing 1 or 2 or 3 intervals of IMax at a time, you'll do just fine. To help calm your nerves, try lowering your step in the beginning. The choreography is not complex in Interval Max, but compared to Intense Moves, it's the theory of relativity. So give...

No critique here, sounds great <center><font size="1" color="#ff0000">LAST EDITED ON Jan-20-00 AT 12:20PM (EST)</font></center> I think your routine sounds great. I like a lot of variety too. Mostly I alternate between running and different forms of aerobics (step, hi/lo, kickboxing.) I...

Forgot to say I don't inline skate or mountain bike, but I am a a runner. There's a pretty good series of videos that you can get from Collage Videos that are specifically for different sports. I bought the one that's Sports Training: Running and it is excellent. There's also one for biking...

Hi Trevor You might also like Cathe's Body Max if you like MIC and MIS. It is another high intensity workout -- in fact it is a full 90 minutes long. The choreography is on the simpler side -- similar to her Max Intensity Cardio choreography. The last 30 to 35 minutes is all upper body...

Kim, I've also got both 9801 and Happy Hour CIA 9801 is a great tape. I agree that the hi/lo in 9801 is more complex than in Happy Hour. As Sarah mentioned, there are TWICE as many combos that she teaches you in an hour's time. Whoa! In addition to being more complex, the 9801 hi/lo is a...

Lucky baby! You're a good mom, Cathe. I never thought of warming up my kids clothes with a blowdryer. Brad was 1 day old and we were still in the hospital, when Norm and I changed our very first baby diaper. It was a very tense situation -- first of all, this was no normal kid, he seemed...

Congratulations, Mom & unsolicited advice We missed you and it's great to see you posting again. But PLEASE take your time about getting back to work and take some time for yourself to rest. The first 3 to 6 months is a lot of work, especially when it's your first. You have to build in...

Thank you so much for sharing, Jon A baby's birth is such a miracle, it leaves me with no words, but lots of tears. You have a beautiful son who is so fortunate to have two loving, wonderful parents. Treasure every moment -- right up until he asks for the car keys. God bless your family.

Strength or cardio first? My understanding is that it depends on your goals, Danielle. If you are trying to focus on building lean muscle, the conventional wisdom is to do your strength work first. Warning: if you do this, expect to have less energy during your cardio workout. If you are...

Mandy! Congratulations! Best wishes for a healthy pregnancy and a beautiful little baby of your own. I can't even imagine having 7 kids! You always think you won't be able to love another one as much ... but then you do. And more.

Thank you for sharing. <center><font size="1" color="#ff0000">LAST EDITED ON Jan-06-00 AT 12:52PM (EST)</font></center> He's so beautiful. He really took my breath away. And I had to laugh when I saw his little "kickboxing" picture. His little arms and legs look so LOOOOOOONG. But I'm sure...

Through VideoFitness <center><font size="1" color="#ff0000">LAST EDITED ON Jan-05-00 AT 06:58PM (EST)</font></center> I'd never even heard of Collage, much less Cathe Friedrich, before I stumbled across Video Fitness in the summer of 1998. I was like a kid in a candy store with just one...

Thanks for the update, Chris You know how we moms are: we worry, we worry. I'm so glad to hear all is well. Hope Cathe and baby Eric get some rest.

The class sounds great, Lorrayne I'm jealous. And you got to see Cathe within a day of her going into labor! Good timing! Daphne Magnuson

Happy news I hope everyone is doing well. What a miracle! Congratulations to Cathe, Jon and family.

Pregnant dynamo still doing power scissors? I have this image in my mind of tiny Cathe and her huge tummy attempting a power scissor and just getting stuck there ... Chris comes running in, Jon is summoned and finally, the whole group whisks Cathe off to the ob/gyn's office. It's tough to get...
