    A Suggestion for those who don't do IMAX 3 because....

    it is so super intense. I've really been avoiding this workout whenever it comes up in a rotation because it's just too high impact for me and I feel incompetent from the first combo/blast (my 51 year old knees are not what they used to be) But when it came up on today's rotation (I'm doing...

    Anyone see The Wave infomercial?

    I haven't done a Firm workout in a few years, but since I'm such an infomercial junkie, I came really close to ordering this. Has anyone been tempted? Or has anyone heard/read reviews? Paula

    I'm longing for more Cathe workouts, other than STS

    I really wish Cathe was working on other workouts that are like Drill Max, Body Max 2, etc. I'm happy for those who are looking forward to her new series, but I wish she was making some new kick ass cardio and strength workouts. I really love the versatility of her DVD's that have so many...

    For the runners out there

    I just started running about one month ago. I am curious how long it took you to be able to run 3 miles. Were you able to run 3 miles right away, in a week? a month? Even though I thought I was in fairly good shape, it took me a while to be able to run 2 miles without stopping. Is this...

    My Road Trip Experience

    I cannot even begin to express what a thrill it was to meet and workout with you (and Cedie, Jai and Brenda on Sunday). Not only are you an inspiration , but your warmth, your kindness, patience, etc. was obviously so genuine. You and the entire crew are a true class act! Thank you!!!!! Paula

    Mp3 Help seriously computer challenged

    I really want to start using Cardio Coach for running and need to purchase an MP3 player. I know nothing about the new technology. Can anyone recommend a brand. I want one that would be easy to wrap around my arm while running and has decent headphones that won't pop out. Paula

    My new favorite snack

    It's only about 225 calories, but tastes absolutely sinful. Buy Kozy Shack chocolate all natural pudding in snack cup size. It is totally natural with 4g of protein and 3g fiber and no crap in it. It has 15g of sugar which is so much less than most yogurts on the market. It's so much...

    Gym Style Rotation?

    I had Gym Style Legs and just purchased the other two DVD's. Is there a rotation that uses these 3 a lot? Thanks, Paula

    I finally "caved"

    I wasn't planning on ordering because STS just seemed too intense for me. But I'm so into the slow and heavy series now and lifting heavier that I thought "why not"? PLUS.......and this is my biggest reason for ordering.....I'm going to July's Road Trip and I know I'd feel so miserable with...

    Will there ALWAYS be a "modifier" using just dumbells or the barbell?

    I wasn't planning on ordering STS because of all the new equipment on the blog....to be honest I'm rather intimidated by it because there's no way I can order more since I live in a tiny NYC apt. and I purposely don't belong to a gym. BUt, if there is a "modifier" who is constantly "on camera" I...

    Thank God for the Timesaver DVD

    I am finally recovering from a week long illness and have been unable to work out. Basically, I've done nothing but lay in bed and go to the doctor this past week. But, this morning I finally had the energy to work out and I didn't know which one to do. So, I figured I might as well use the...

    Do I have to get a pull up bar?

    Forgive me if this has been answered before. Will there be an alternative to using a pull-up bar? Paula

    Tried my first Amy Bento

    I've been using Cathe exclusively for one year......and I feel the need to branch out just the tiniest bit. I love kickboxing, but how many times can you do KPC, KickMax and the new one on 4day split? I really wanted another kickboxing workout. I hate Tae Bo because of the constant counting...

    Will I be able to purchase lower body workouts only?

    Sorry if this has already been asked. I feel I have enough upper body workouts, and really do not want to get bigger (I bulk up very easily)in my upper body. BUt, I would be very interested in just purchasing the lower bocy workouts. Will this be an option? Paula

    I hate being out of the loop and not preorder....BUT

    I am so technically challenged (not even sure what an MP3 player is), cannot buy one more piece of equipment, can only lift 1/2 of what Cathe can for upper body, just want to continue to "tone," really do NOT want to build anymore upper body muscle (I know that sounds strange, but I bulk up very...

    I finally conquered the "Evil Enemy" Imax 3

    My 1st Cathe "anniversary" is coming up in a few weeks. I can't believe how far I've come in terms of endurance, coordination, strength, etc. The Firm got me started in my fitness journey, 7 years ago, but Cathe really took me to new levels. BUT, BUT, BUT, I never in my life thought I'd be...

    I was about to sell Four Day Split when.....

    I remembered that I have always wanted to sell Cathe workouts that totally frustrated me!!!! and I would eventually learn to love them. Before I was a Catheite I bought and sold Low Max and Kick Max two times. Now, they are two of my favorites. Well.....I was beginning to think that this 4Day...

    My solution for using ALL my Cathe workouts!

    I realized that even though I've built a large Cathe "library" over the past year, I don't utilize all my workouts. So....I know this sounds strange as a way to choose a rotation....I decided to use the Cathe 2007 Catalog's Table of Contents (the DVD Library...to be exact) to help me use all my...
