    Why are you using a lower step height, Cathe?

    Step height If I recall, Cathe once said she's ummm...petite? As someone who is only 5'0", anything that is over 6 inches is too high. I used to do the 8", but was advised to lower it. I still get a kick-a** workout on 6".

    Volume One

    WHOOOOOPEEEE!!!!! I just got finished doing Volume One of the new series and WHAT FUN! I loved, loved, loved the step section. I think it had the most fun combinations of any tape you've made so far. Since getting pregnant, I haven't had the chest strength as I used to and I'm looking...

    Recovering from episiotomy

    Thanks all! Thanks for the reassurance. I kind of knew that Kegels would work, but I just needed someone who has been through it to tell me. Before the birth I was doing over 200 a day, now it's a challenge just to do 50, but it's getting better. Hope everything went well for you, Mandy!

    Recovering from episiotomy

    I delivered my beautiful daughter, Teri, on Tuesday morning after a rather difficult labor. The doctor had to perform an episiotomy all the way back to my rectum and use the forceps because she was facing out instead of in. Now I've got nasty hemmoroids and don't seem to have much rectal...

    YIPPPEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited that you're putting out these new tapes and just when I'll be getting ready to start working out for real again after having a baby. I'm due the 1st week of July and have been doing step and the PS series for the whole pregnancy. I need something new! I...

    Any tapes that aren't good?

    I was just wondering if any of the tapes I use are too intense for pregnancy? I have the PS series, MIC and MIS, Body Max, Interval Max, StepWorks and Power Max. I'm in my 6th week right now - is there a point where I should stop doing any of them? Thanks!

    7 weeks and miserable

    Thanks Susan! I'm due in July and this is my first. Still can't believe it's happening, but I'm very glad you wrote what you did. It's very encouraging. Thanks!

    7 weeks and miserable

    Just the information I needed! I'm just starting week 6 of my pregnancy and was very disappointed with how out of shape I've been feeling. I did Step Works the other day (a tape I've done at least 100 times) and I felt like I was going to die! Going through MIS yesterday, I felt like I was...

    I saw and Advertisement about Cathe in the FIRM catalog flyer

    The Firm tapes I used to be a big Firm fan - but then I discovered Cathe's tapes. I don't even bother with any of The Firm tapes anymore - they're too easy and I didn't get REAL results until I started using Cathe's tapes. I do lend them out to people at work who haven't worked out in a long...

    Ab's video

    Great idea This would be awesome if you put one of these together! Currently, I use The Firms 5 Day Abs when I do your cardio workouts, but I get bored with the same ones and, to be honest, there's one of their instructors who irritates the H--- out of me! I agree that your ab sections are...

    Success - Thanks to Cathe's videos

    I started using Cathe's videos back in Feb. '98. I was using The Firm tapes, but they got too easy, so I ordered MIS and MIC. Well, Friday I start training to become an instructor for Body Pump - this hot new workout using a barbell. I'm so psyched and I'm totally prepared because of the...
