Cathe 60 minutes sounds GREAT!! Include the warm up, and stretch and it sounds like a killer workout!!!

Cathe, I think what you suggested sounds great. 60 minutes is good and we don't need an ab or core work on this because we can always throw in the AB tape. I like the idea of the floor work because you don't have much of that except for PS and it's a good break from all the standing and...

I love the music in all those videos too, but I workout with a 13-inch TV with a built in VCR. The sound quality is tinny and I can't get the volume. I have a hard time hearing all those little things everyone talks about. The music really motivates when it's loud and bassy. I envy you girls...

I used Weight Watchers and lost 10 pounds. I too am 5'1" and weigh 120. I was at 130. I went on WW (not officially like the meetings) but a bunch of girls at work all went on and I thought it was fun. Unfortunately, the ones who weigh less than 150 are stuck with only 18 points at low end. I...

It probably depends on the day, but I like to do the cardio first. I don't have the wedding tape, but with CTX series the cardio is first, then strength. The cardio warms up your muscles for what's to come. I usually have more energy after a cardio session. Maybe it's the endorphins??

I'm on my third week of S&H and I have noticed a difference already. My biceps are more pumped looking and my chest area looks more muscular. I have been doing MIS, PH, CTX and PS for quite a while and S&H really makes a difference. Its a good muscle developer and you can feel it working while...

Of all the dreams here, I can identify with yours!! I also have the dream of being back in high school and forgetting my locker number, And I can't find my class schedule and can't find the room my next class is in. The school is usually the one I went to Junior High in. A long time ago!! Then...

I like Clinique's self-tan body tanning lotion. It's just as good as Estee, but half the price. I tried Clarins which is expensive also, but brought it back. It had that orangy color. I like the Clinique products because of the price AND the quality.

Hi Aquajock, My .02 is YOU are right on all points. Society and the public media are all on the weight loss bandwagon these days with zillions of diet remedies that target the obese for cosmetic reasons and downplay the importance of exercise. Media is the worse, with advertisements of...

LOL, I have to lock my dogs in the other room while I'm working out...otherwise, my shih-tzu will scoot underneath me while I'm doing push ups and lie there while I try to get to the bottom. Or he will try to lick my face while I'm doing abs...and he always has to get on the mat. And doing Step...

Happy Anniversary Debbie! My hubby does Cathe tapes with me too!It's fun to work out together, isn't it? Your dh sounds as nice as mine.:-)

Have you tried Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches? They are lowfat and delicious. Their website is www.skinnycow.com. Since my dh and I tried them we are hooked. I like it because I don't have to worry about scooping a little too much ice cream in the bowl. Yes, I love Healthy Choice ice cream too...

Ditto. You know I have the same problem. I can keep up with all the other weights in PH and even surpass some of them, but the overhead barbell press does me in. I lighten the barbell and still can't do the last 8 reps with good form. I find that I can't get the weight up unless I arch my back...

I checked out the Heaven's Bistro website and they look fantastic! I'll have to try them. Another frozen food I like is Boca burgers. I have one on an english muffin with salsa and dijon mustard for dinner at least once a week. Very satisfying and low fat too!:7 Donna

Hi Annette, I'm not new to Cathe tapes, but I am fairly new to this forum and I have to say that your contribution of knowledge and encouragement to this group is HUGE! So, CONGRATULATIONS on your 15 years! :-jumpy Donna M

Happy Birthday Cathe! I know I'm a day late, but wanted to get my birthday wishes in too!:-) Donna M

Me too! Great idea! I do the same thing, sometimes combining upper body workouts from other Cathe videos. I find that shoulder work is much more difficult for me than other body parts. I need to work it a little more. Donna M

I found Cathe through Collage Video a few years ago also. I ordered MIS and a Charlene Pritchard(?) tape. I sent back the CP tape and kept MIS. Since then I only do Cathe tapes, except for a short phase through Taebo, which I grew out of very quickly.

I just use a monthly calendar page and keep it right in front of my workout TV. I write which workout I do for each day, plus how much weight I used for each workout. Since I only do Cathe workouts now, it may be portions of one or another video or I might try to stay in a particular rotation...

Thanks Jeffsmom, I'll give it a try. Actually most weeks I get in about 5 workouts, on the good weeks, 6. In a few weeks I want to try another rotation (it takes me a good 20 minutes to rewind and fast forward my tapes to where I want them for the next morning):-rollen I'm going on vacation in...
