    Review of Legs in the Four Day Split

    I too absolutely loved the legs section. (Well, I love all the weights in 4DS.) I thought the legs portion was thorough, contained familiar exercises w/some fresh elements and was not a rep or "variation of the same exercise" fest! I wasn't keen on coming up from the ground for low plane...

    Cathe Compendium

    Forgive me if this has already been addressed. I searched, but didn't see anything. Has the Cathe Compendium been updated to include 4DS yet? If so, how can I get a copy? If not, I hope the "Keeper of the Compendium" (that totally awesome person!) will post when an updated version is...

    Announcing STS - Cathe's Next Filming Project!

    In response to the workout blender question. My vote is no if it adds considerable time to the prep of these workouts or to the expense. I don't trust myself to design my own workout (although I know many people do), that's what I have you and your videos for! :-)

    New Workouts Announced in Blog

    Truly awesome, Cathe! Thank you! This is exactly what I was hoping for from you. I cannot wait! Hoping DH can pre-order me STS for my April birthday! One question, will there be cardio workouts in the new series? With a focus on weight training, I imagine it won't be cardio heavy, but...

    Announcing STS - Cathe's Next Filming Project!

    This is the best news I've heard . . . EVER! I am so looking forward to this one! Of course I want to know when the pre-sale will start, the price tag (should I be afraid, very afraid?) and the estimated shipping date, but I won't badger you for that. I know it'll all come out sooner or...

    4DS total body?

    I did it this morning. It's long (97 min.) but it goes by pretty quickly, and it is definitely thorough. If one was time crunched, you could easily do just one set of everything. It also helps to have all your weights ready to go, your step set up, etc. IMO, the weight work on 4DS is...

    Leg Portion on Kickbox

    I too love the lower body weight work on 4DS. Not a huge amount of reps, not a bunch of variations of the same exercises (e.g. 6 versions of lunges). It's "just right," IMO! And the exercises, while familiar, seem a bit fresh and new. I really enjoy it. It's thorough, yet relatively brief...

    Update on future workouts....

    Thanks, Cathe! You deserve a rest! No sooner do you have one series out, when we are begging for more! No one can blame you for playing a close hand. With all the clamoring for information you get, which is usually followed by endless discussion, dissection, and analyzing of your every word...

    Best way to lean out butt and thighs?

    I too would love to know the answer to this. My thighs (especially the saddlebag region) are my biggest problem area. I'm in pretty good shape, and I am close to my ideal body weight. My thighs refuse to budge no matter what I do. I've tried heavy lifting for the lower body, lots of cardio...

    Heart Rate Question

    Hello, Cathe! I'm sure you've been asked this many, many times before, but I'm relatively new to the forum (although I've been using your videos for some time now and really enjoy them). My question is (and I know there are a lot of "it depends on . . . ." factors, but as a general rule), at...

    Gym Styles Rotation

    Thank you! I know a GS rotation shouldn't be hard to figure out because it's already designed as a split, but I just like someone with more knowledge than myself to tell me what to do! LOL!

    Gym Styles Rotation

    I just recently completed my collection of Gym Styles, and I'm wondering if Cathe or anyone has ever posted a rotation using just the Gym Styles for strength work with, of course, other vids for cardio. Anyone?

    Chocolate Milk as sports drink!

    Actually, I heard this several months ago in a article I read on MSN Health. The author, someone with some fancy degree in nutrition or biology or something or another, said that the best pre- or post-workout drink is 12 oz. of chocolate milk! He said if you exercise first thing in the morning...

    "One Exercise Best Attacks Belly Fat"

    RE: Very interesting, thanks for sharing! I noted, however, that at the top of the page the article is on, there's a beer ad! Thought it was kinda' funny as if anything is going to go straight to your belly, it's beer! :-) Shelley Gilbertson Melrose, MN

    Workout Wear and Barbell?

    Hi, Cathe! I'm a relatively new fan, and I am so enjoying your workouts! You and the crew look terrific in your DVDs - great, fit bods and awesome workout duds! Where can one buy this gear? I know you have some links on the site, but I don't see anything for stuff you guys have worn in more...

    Low Impact Workouts

    I agree on this one! I'm currently nursing a heel spur w/associated plantar faciitis, and unfortunately, high impact is not on the menu! I've been struggling to find advanced, high intensity, challenging, fun, low impact workouts with interesting choreography! I really enjoy "Low Max" and...
