Hello everyone. I need some input on how to go about building my currently very limited Cathe collection. I try to do cardio 3-4 times per week and weights 2-3 times per week, with the goal of toning and just generally being in shape. (I generally alternate cardio and weight days -- no time for both!) For cardio, I have Imax 2, LowMax and RS/Imax/MIC. (I also run for cardio maybe once a week.) For weights, I have MuscleMax and PUB/PLB. I'm not sure whether my next DVD should be something like KPC, BC or Imax 3 (all of which sound very fun!), or if I am in more need of adding variety to my weight training with something like the GS series. Or, maybe something I haven't even mentioned would make sense. I will, no doubt, eventually get them all, but I can't afford to get them all right away. Does anyone have any input on how they would set up their next few purchases? Thanks for listening!
Another "what would you buy next" question. . .

I would go for KPC & LG. I personally LOVE KPC & LG, and it will add a nice balance to your existing cardio regimine. I just did it today as a matter of fact. There are so many premixes on that one dvd that I swear you could use all week!
Enjoy

Hi!
I often have the same problem as you do, so I understand, I think, where you're coming from.
A couple of things: except for MIC and RS, your "cardio" workouts are the IMAX's -- which are really anaerobic workouts -- cardio, also, but they concentrate more on getting your heart beat way up there and then down, then up, then down, whereas cardio is a more steady-on pace endurance sort of pace. You do get a cardio workout with your anaerobics, but it's not the main thrust of the workout -- or at least that's my understanding of it.
So, if it were me, I think I'd opt for another cardio workout -- something like Step Blast or any of Cathe's other step workouts. KPC is also a good cardio workout, although it probably is a little bit of cardio, plus conditioning for your muscles, as well. And it's a terrific workout.
If you want to know more about the 5 things that should be included in your weekly workouts -- and why (the different muscle groups targetted, etc), I would highly recommend the book, READY, SET, GO! by Phil Campbell.
Hope you have a super day.:7
