Hi everyone, this is my first time posting on this specific forum (although I've been a Cathe fan for a while). My husband and I have decided that 2005 is the year, we're going to start trying to have a baby. I want to make myself as healthy as possible while trying, and I read somewhere that...

Hi everyone! I recently started lifting weights at the gym, primarily because I work there and get a membership so I figure I should use it. But I find that I really miss my Cathe workouts. Has anyone ever tried to do a rotation using both the gym and their home workouts? I would really like...

I just wanted to say that I think the Timesaver DVD is awesome! It is perfect for the holiday times when I am definitely short on time! I think the bonus footage really adds to it and makes for some tough workouts (pushups in workout 1, yikes) I debated a lot about getting this one and I am...

Hi Stacy! I bought all 4 of the Lotte Berk workouts on DVD and I have to say I personally enjoyed them. High Round Assets is great, and if you really focus on form you will feel it in your glutes. My only complaint about that workout is that on one exercise she does and extra set on one side...

Hi! I am taking my AFAA primary group instructor certification exam on Oct 25th. I feel like I have the information and ability to pass the exam, but teaching an entire class and finding somewhere to hire me with no real experience is a different story. So, I was wondering if anyone had ideas...

Hi Lisa! It's great to have you here. I definitely think you'll enjoy the forum (and of course your new Cathe workouts). This is a great place for motivation and support for all your workouts. Is volume 3 the pyramids? Great workouts, but then again I love the entire series. But they are...

RE: TO: Roe Hi! I just wanted to say that I know that in the endurance workouts of any kind I feel like my calf muscles of the back leg start to compensate if the front leg gets tired. So maybe using a little lighter weight would help keep the work in your front leg. Just a thought. There's...

Hi everyone! Okay, I am a little confused and hope that someone can help me clarify. I just got the Rythimic step DVD yesterday which also contains Imax and MIC. I've had Imax2 on DVD since it came out and I love it but since you're only supposed to do it once or twice a week I got the RS DVD...

Yesterday for the first time I actually did a full set of pikes on the stability ball in PUB. It was so weird because when I first started this video I couldn't do any so I continued to do additional tucks wen Cathe would move to pikes. Every once in a while I'd try a pike, fall, and go back...

Hi! I loved your pictures...looks like a great visit. I was wondering, how do you go about seeing Cathe on a trip? Did you contact her through the forum? At the end of this summer I am moving out of PA and I think this may be the closest I'll ever be to Cathe and should visit before I move...

Hey everyone! I have been thinking of buying a couple new videos, but after having found Cathe about 9 months ago I'm almost scared to try anyone else. But I thought that some of the videos by Christi Taylor and Janis Saffell looked interesting (Christi for aerobics and Janis in kickboxing)...

I know there has been a lot of talk on here about the slim series, but I still have a question. Is this series worth buying if I am not going to do the rotation? Can you throw in a video here or there with other videos? I tried the Slim in 6 and hated it because I was so bored. I liked...

Hi Roe! The Hip Hugger Abs workout consists of a pretty lengthy warm-up with stretching and both pushups and triceps dips. I often skip the warmup if I am coming off of another workout. The abs section consists of 5 exercises. First you do a series of rollbacks (kind of like a roll-up in...

I actually like these DVDs (and I think it's worth getting the DVDs for the bonus segments). I have found them to be challenging in a different way, and I have to admit I was sore, especially in my quads, after doing muscle eats fat. I add the lower body from MEF to PLB and it seems to really...

Hey everyone! I also am a coffee addict and I drink it black just about every morning. And although I have a some fat on my middle I don't think it has anything to do with coffee. Earlier this year I gave up coffee for lent (it was awful and painful) and did not consume any coffee for a full...

Hi everyone! My fiance has been saying for a while that he wants to get a video for his abs because all he has right now is 8 minute abs and that can get old really fast. So I was thinking of getting him Ab HIts when I preorder the Blast Series. I was just wondering if anyone's...

Hi Cathe! Thanks so much for the information about the new body blast series. I cannot wait, you are truly an inspiration! Now, I am probablly getting ahead of things, but I was wondering if you had any ideas for what kind of premixes might be on the new DVDs. I love the ones for the...

AHHHHHH!!!! I am so excited. This series sounds incredible, of course I expected nothing less! I have my credit card ready for the preorder! My fiance's going to have a fit because I promised no more new exercise DVDs until after the wedding, but how could I have known that something this...

I am so excited to hear there will be new videos filmed this summer, I can't wait! I really like the idea of a push/pull video. A total body video that focuses on heavy weights as opposed to endurance is just what I've been looking for. I really love the Pyramid DVD where I can do the bonus...

Thanks everyone! I knew I could post here and get some encouragement! I really feel for those of you who have physical injuries, in some ways I think that would be even worse. I guess it's just frustrating because exercise is what I turn to all the time to improve my mood and make me feel...
