    a cardio coach cd

    Hi, I don't personally use cardio coach, but here is a website: www.cardiocoach.com----click on 'order now' and it will take you to a page where you can click on the individual cd volume, to listen to 30 second samples of each track. It doesn't look like it includes weights---just cardio...

    A Jump Rope Cardio Workout

    I'd go for this---with or without the actual jump rope. It should make for a pretty good cardio workout, and with Cathe's creativity and cueing, it should also make for a fun workout. }( Leslie L.

    Cathe, how did you choose your amazing crew?

    Hi Cathe, Your crew is simply amazing! They are right there with you through step aerobics, weight training, circuit training, kickboxing, abs training (levitation holds, whoah!)...they're tough yet feminine, like you. The crew that I'm familiar with are: Cedie, Rhonda, Jai, Brenda and...

    Abs workout using a medicine ball only

    Hi Cathe, How are you? I absolutely love the abs workout sections in your videos that use a medicine ball (ie: "Bootcamp" and "Core Max-segment 3"). The added resistance from the weighted ball really works/strengthens the abs muscles! It would be really great if you would create a seperate...

    Best fitness magazine

    I like Muscle & Fitness Hers (published 4 times a year, subscription not available anymore, so you have to look for it at your local bookstore/newstand) and Fitness RX for women (published 6 times a year and available through subscription). Oxygen is good too, but it seems to be geared more...

    Best Body magazine?

    I would check out these fitness magazines: Muscle & Fitness Hers (published 4 times a year), Fitness RX For Women (published 6 times a year) and Oxygen (published 12 a year), instead of Best Body.

    LowMax fans: which step are you using?

    Hi Marie, I use the original health club step like Cathe and crew. It's a very worth while purchase, so I definitely recommend it. I use it at 6 and 8 inches, depending on how challenged I feel at the start of Low Max. It's also great for putting into incline position for some of Cathe's...

    Muscle Fitness mag. out of business?

    Hi Kim, I really like Muscle & Fitness Hers, too. M&F Hers is now being published 4 times a year: Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter, per Weider Publications. It isn't available as a subscription anymore, so you have to look for it at your local newstand/bookstore (CVS carries it). Have you...

    GS Legs Is my favorite

    I love "Gym Style Legs"! It challenges me from start to end and when I finish the workout, I am whipped and then I give myself a pat on the back. I especially like the music at the very end during the stretch portion. It's so soothing and it makes me visualize a gentle, cascading...

    Hardcord Series...Reviews

    Hi! I have several of Cathe's Hardcore Series: "Gym Style Legs"---a tough 67 minute workout that uses a high step, barbell, dummbells, resistance band and stability ball. The excercises are easy to follow, but do require endurance/stamina to finish through. Cathe does leg presses with a...

    I love Kickmax

    I had been wanting to do kickboxing and had purchased Billy Blanks Tae Bo instructional and Basic Tae Bo. I know it's the substance of the workout that matters, but I didn't care for the loud screaming roomfull of people counting in the background or how Billy stops demonstrating and starts...

    I need more Cathe kickboxing

    I just ordered both KPC and Kick Max and can't wait to get them! I also own Low Max, and it's awesome and challenging for me.

    Core Max

    Core Max is mostly abs, like Kathryn said. It's awesome that there are 3 complete workouts on one DVD. I especially like segment 3 with the toning ball---a great way to add resistance to your abs workout. I have yet to (come far, yet alone come close to) master the stability ball workout...

    I need help from you experts

    I definitely recommend Cathe. Just be aware though, that her workouts are challenging, intense and fun. I've used Tamilee Webb's workouts and basic Tae Bo, among others (The Firm) and when I started using Cathe, I was overwhelmed. I have to use much lighter weights than Cathe and crew and I've...

    i just ordered some new dvds!

    Hi Jes, I own all 3 DVDs and I love them all. Core Max segment 1 is my favorite--it is intense with plenty of reps and sets of abs/core excercises(I've had other non-Cathe abs workout that just don't have the intensity nor adequate reps/sets that Core Max has). The fact that there are very...

    high step / firm fanny lifter ?

    Hi Deb, I, too, have the fanny lifter step from my pre-Cathe days. I used it when I first started working out to Cathe, and I didn't have any problem when I did my leg presses on it, with dumbbell in each hand or over each shoulder. But when I looped the resistance band underneath it (the...
