    New Stretch Workout question

    Hi Cathe, Can you give some more information on the Beginner/Intermediate stretch workout? I am leaning towards preordering, but I need to know: Is it going to be yoga-ish/flowing or more typical "athletic" stretches? Will there be a mix and match section, so we could put together all...

    Cathe is this true?

    Hi Cathe (and for any roadtrippers who want to answer, I've posted a similar question in Open Discussion), Hope you had a great time on the roadtrip, and more importantly that you are taking some time to relax with your family. Along those lines, I read that you have been so busy and...

    roadtrippers--new advanced Cathes?

    Hi to everyone who went on the roadtrip... I read on VF that Cathe told someone that she might do one advanced workout this fall, but not a series. Did anyone else hear that from Cathe? Thanks, Wendy

    Fellow Dallas Area Roadtrippers. Did you make it home?

    Wow, Marla. I hope there aren't any flight attendants reading this. I mean, I get your point, but still!

    Root Canal?

    I have no pain tolerance, and my root canal was a breeze. I went to a root canal specialist, not a regular dentist (endodontist, I think). I was so sore BEFORE the root canal, but during and after I was pain free :) Don't worry too much--a root canal was always my biggest nightmare, and I...

    Not sure how to word this....

    I don't know if it will make it more bearable, but it seems to me that some of the whooping is done to let Cathe know that there is only one more rep. In Bootcamp it is unbelievably annoying, but I love Cedie so it doesn't bother me too, too much. As for the comment that the whooping is less...

    great mats

    Hi Judy, I used mine over carpet in my old house, and they worked fine--but they did take a little getting used to. They felt squishy (too squishy) at first, and they did slip around. That's why I used dumbells on the corners, which helped to keep them still. The slipping didn't happen...

    great mats

    Hi. I have mine over a concrete basement floor, and they feel fine. I like my great mats, but I'd much prefer real flooring. As for the wall to wall, I don't know if you'll really be able to do that, since I think they are 2 feet by 2 feet squares. You'll have a 10x16 mat when you put it...

    Kitchen renovation question

    Don't know if this helps or not, as it is not about the kitchen... We used Home Depot to roof our house, and it was a complete and utter disaster. I won't go into details, but we sued them and got a refund on all of our money, and then had a local roofer come out and do a GOOD job in three...

    Tell me about Classics, Volume 1....

    The Classics is the only Cathe I have owned that I have sold (other than VHS workouts that I've upgraded to DVD). The choreography was far too basic for me, and too repetative. For reference, my favorite Cathe choreography is in Step Blast, Rhythmic Step and some segments of the more...

    Future Premix question

    Hi Cathe, (This question is directed only to Cathe and/or SNM. If anyone else has input, please feel free to PM me.) I'm wondering whether in your future workouts you plan to design the premixes more along the lines of the Intensity and Body Blast series rather than the Hardcores. I'm not...

    What should I buy?

    Hi Elaine, I hate to be the Cathe Police, but you really aren't allowed to sell Cathe's stuff on her site. Maybe PM people? :) Wendy

    Anyone else like the shoulder exercises in Legs/shoulders?

    Here's the description from the DVD link: Next you will immediately go into your shoulder work. The effectiveness of these shoulder exercises is not only due to the slow manner of repetitions but also to the slight angle changes of the body as you perform the exercise. You will do dumbbell...

    haven't heard much lately about Muscle Max - anyone?

    >I really like this workout. Cardio is similar to bootcamp. >Maybe not as intense. >Diane Sue I'm confused here. Muscle Max doesn't have cardio in it, does it? Wendy

    New to Cathe

    Hi, Since you like weights and cardio together, I would suggest Cardio and Weights. Although the choreography may be a little tricky for someone who uses mostly Firm workouts, I think that this workout is more along the lines of high-intermediate, and will give you a nice taste of Cathe's...

    Aack!!!!...My triceps are screaming!!!

    I knew from the thread title that this would be about the Gym Style workout! I did Chest and Triceps yesterday morning, and I was feeling it by the time I went to bed. Today I am sore to the touch in my chest, and my triceps are sensitive to every move my arms make. Yowsers. I was just...
