    More Step Workouts!

    Also, since I don't have a way to stream live workouts, what about adding a live workout to a DVD as a sampler--or better yet a DVD of live workouts?

    More Step Workouts!

    I have EVERY Cathe workout and love them. It seems the trend though in cardio is drills and high-impact. I would love a series of cardio with step routines. I just love those, and the older ones have such great vocal music. Thanks

    Low Back Stiffness

    Thank you all for this thread. My lower hip/back soreness (mostly on the left) actually scared me at first. I literally own all of Cathe's DVDs and never had this problem (except for once doing Butts and Gutts a long time ago and I thought that was due to skipping the stretch). It took four...

    $9.97

    On the Cathe Live site (Cathe Live), I can click on subscribe and it offers me a monthly charge of $9.97. What comes with that charge? In other words, can you give me some more details--how many workouts? can I watch the workouts more than once? is new content added each month? Can I sign up for...

    Jersey Shore

    This morning I did Fit and Firm. Remember that one?? :-) I used heavier weights, including ankle weights, than Cathe and crew and found it quite a good workout. I definitely felt my muscles worked--especially chest and outer thigh. The pretty beach scene (OK it was painted but innovative...

    Cathe's Greatest Hits?

    A Few More Ideas The other day I did IMAX 2 and just before giving up, the Pina Colada song came on. I smiled and was revived. I'd suggest the Pina Colada interval for a greatest hit. Also, any of the segments that used the Elvis remake "A Little Less Conversation" from the Intensity series...

    Thank you Thank you for your responses! I think I'll just substitute another one of these moves for triceps.

    Pregnancy Workout

    Kickboxing I always loved Cathe's kickboxing workouts when I was pregnant. Kickboxing is so easy to modify--obviously you kick or punch as hard or as high as you feel able. Kick Max has a great low impact premix that I liked a lot. I also liked her step workouts. I put the step right to...

    Dips and Shoulder Pain

    Hi Cathe, And thank you. Your workouts have meant so much to me. Quick question: At the end of Bis and Tris (X-Train) are the tricep dips on the floor. These are in other workouts, too, such as Body Max II. For some reason, I always feel discomfort in my shoulders (top and to the side)...

    So Disappointed . . .

    in myself! Athletic Training was awesome! But I had to stop at 12 minutes. Yes, 12 minutes, and catch my breath. Before kids (2 under 3), I could do Maximum Intensity Cardio without stopping, but Athletic Training got me at 12 minutes! It was an amazing workout and gives me something to work...

    Terrible DOMS

    Hi Cathe and everyone! After two children almost back-to-back, I'm working hard to get back in shape. I used to be able to do STS and Gym Styles and other workouts without too much soreness afterwards, but I did Gym Styles recently--just the upper body--and felt completely incapacitated. I...

    Low Impact Challenge Premixes

    Has anyone tried the premixes in Low Impact Challenge yet? I love the idea of multiple premixes so I will never get bored with this workout, but I'm curious about the breakdown. Thanks!

    DCDs: Dixie Cup DOMS

    I agree. My DOMS lasted for three days! I also had to move to taller cups just to get through it! But using the cups is really worth it.

    Advice on Sliding Discs

    Thanks for the advice to put a carpet remnant over my puzzle mats. The discs now work great! And the carpet gives my workout floor more cushioning. I wish i had bought a carpet remnant for STS. So many times I tried the slide moves but lost my furniture movers midway through a set. With my...

    Need More Cushioned Work Chair After Trisets!

    I did Trisets Lower Body yesterday and the time flew by. With a new baby and a toddler, I had very limited time and figured that I could squeeze this one in. The dixie cups (well my cups needed to be a taller size) really worked and forced me to stretch farther and bend deeper. I really felt...

    Advice on Sliding Discs

    I have puzzle mats over a concrete floor. The discs work but not so smooth. Does anyone else have puzzle mats and use the discs? Or is it worth buying an area rug? Also, what is the recommended use--with the black cover for wood and vinyl floors, and without the black cover for rugs? Thank...

    DOMS During Pregnancy

    Hi everyone, I'm expected my second child in July and lurk in and out of the forums (my first child is keeping me busy and away from the forums!). I do have a quick question. Before this pregnancy, I was much more in shape (well obviously). I was on my second circuit of STS and almost able...

    Workout Book

    Hi Cathe and team! I would definitely purchase a workout book, similar to the STS guide, that listed the exercises in Cathe's workouts with places where I could keep track of the weight used. I have handwritten notes on what weights I use for each workout, but it would be so nice to have one...

    Monday Chit Chat

    Hi Cathe! I'm afraid to ask my biggest questions about the new workouts. I keep going to the announcements section of the Web site just to check . . . Seriously, I did Cardio and Weights this morning and felt really good afterwards. I finished Power Hour a few days ago, and Step Works is...
