Hey ya all, kickboxing sounds like fun. For me it was Imax1 and Supersets. Yesterday was my day off, so I really felt like I had to push it. Boy, I really don't like to take days off, I miss that energetic feeling all day! Have a great day everybody, Maria

Hey, thanks for letting us know. I love Gin too, I love her energy, I think she's so positive she gets me in a good mood. How would You compare the intensity with Cathe's step workouts? Have a good week ya all, Maria

Hi Sandra, Three Terminators in a row!!! Woooo! I have to agree with you too, you do get anaerobic, definitely, and especially the Gauntlet is really tough with the BC cardio added to the imaxes (and like you said, especially since there isn't a break between those!). I also think that how...

Hi, thanks for your thoughts. Yes, I suppose the Gauntlet and the Viper are more like circuit workouts. Maybe I should try doing one of the imaxes anyway, it is true that they feel tougher in the sense that you don't get breaks like you do in the terminator workouts. Anyway, I suppose they...

Hi there everybody, today was Cardio Kicks and Step Blast challenge. I felt extremely worked out after that. "Spanish Terminator junkie", love that ;), enjoy your new step! I always remember getting my step too. I was at the store, (and this was way before I had ever heard of Cathe) and...

Hi ya all, and especially all of you that have the Terminator DVD. I was just wondering, I've been trying to fit in 1-2 interval workouts per week, and I find the Terminator workouts are so demanding, that I seldom seem to have the energy for another interval workout if I do more than one...

Hallo ladies, I like Cardio & Weights for a light day too, but I find that since I got the Terminator DVD I don't do it that much anymore, since the it's used some in the Terminator anyway. This morning I did the Viper, which felt quite tough. That third and fourth Imax2 interval (the 5th...

I just did Gauntlet this morning. It is SOOO tough, but I love how it makes me feel. This was only the second time I did the workout, but it actually felt a LITTLE easier (???!!!) than the first time. I think the worst part is going from the BC cardio portions straight to Imax2:s. I'm so winded...

Hi, plateuing is extremely frustrating, and suffering from constant cravings makes it so much worse! I totally sympathize! You've already gotten some great advice on top of everything you seem to know yourself. I don't know if I can add much, but thought I'd just share what has worked for me...

Hi, I also try to alternate between cardio and weights, but depending on how fatigued I feel I'll do lighter cardio (Rhythmic step, some Christi Taylor or one of the older Cathe step workouts) or a circuit like Step, jump and pump or Cardio & weights. Sometimes a kickboxing workout feels...

Wendy, thank you so much for that link! I'll have to print it out, I love having this info handy when trying to decide what workout to go for in the morning. Maria ;)

Sounds so familiar! I too hurt my back some time ago from doing too much too soon after having a baby. I had to take several weeks off from doing any high-impact cardio (which I love!!!) and slowly ease my way back into the routine. I was god for a while about taking enough rest days, but I'm...

Circuit Max is one of my alltime favourites. It's cardiovascularly quite intense, like Carole said, the weight training sections are quite short. One of the reasons I like it is that it really keeps the heartrate up there through most of the workout, and I sweat buckets with this one. I count it...

Hi Kathy, I totally understand the thing about making up for missed sessions... I haven't done it but it has crossed my mind...:O I'm glad you're over and above that! I'm getting there (hopefully) slowly...! Maria ;)

I would love to attend even though I live in Finland! I hope possible plans on this would be announced well in advance so there would be enough time to make all the necessary arrangements. This would be so great!!! Maria

Hi everybody, thank you so much for all your wonderful answers! I feel much better. For some reason it's just always nice to hear these things from someone else, even if you know the answer deep inside...;)!! And yes, yoga is a good idea! Thanks! Yes, I do have days "like that" too...

Hi, I felt really lazy and tired this morning,and almost wanted to take an extra day off. I ended up doing Step, Jump and Pump anyway, though doing it quite easily. It felt okay like that, but not great. Anyway, I almost felt quilty for not going all out in the workout, and I would have felt...

I'm really glad I ordered the Hardcore compilation DVD too, I hope it's similar to this one. I can't wait to try out the Viper and the Gauntlet. I love the fact that they're a little bit longer, they're great for a weekend workout so you can feel really good about yourself and enjoy some extra...

Hi Melissa, thanks for the info! I thought they were longer too... I'm not complaining though, I've only tried Imax extreme so far, and I felt great after it! Have a great week, Maria

Hi! I was trying to find the overall workout times for the Terminator DVD workouts (Imax Xtreme, the Gauntlet and the Viper) listed somewhere so I know when to set my alarm buzzing...;)They weren't on the DVD descriptions page, nor on the cover... does somebody know better? Thanks in...
