...want to CELEBRATE with me? Today marks ONE YEAR since I started my very 1st. CATHE ROTATION!!! I think I might celebrate with CardioKicks! (Haven't done it in a while.) I just thought this would be an appropriate day to say THANKS to Cathe, SNM and all you wonderful Cathe fans out there. It has been a very fun year getting to know you all. I truly appreciate all the encouragement, the wealth of information you all have shared, the fun and "Laughs" and most of all, an even deeper LOVE of FITNESS because it truly added variety to my life. I've always loved to workout but Cathe tapes added such spice to my rotuine. THANKS EVERYONE!! I know this may sound cheesey but I just wanted to share. Happy Anniversay to ME!!:D Your-Friend-In-Fitness, DebbieH :)
 
Happy one year anniversary! :-jumpy

I thank you for being so encouraging and helpful! It is wonderful to share common interests with someone. You are always nice and upbeat.

Here's to many more years of Cathe rotations!!!!

Hi Debbie,
No, you're not sounding cheesey. Congratulations on working out with Cathe for a full year now! I just started back in June. But the most fun of all has been getting to know everybody on the Cathe forums. I have learned so much from this crowd over the last 8 months. I have enjoyed getting to know everyone. I have become addicted to checking the forums each day. I just love reading other people's opinions, advice, or whatever they want to share. I have particularly enjoyed many of your posts. Feels like we have a little family here!! We have shared alot more than exercise advice. We have shared the birth of Trevor's son, Cathe's son, and many others. It has been such fun!

Have a wonderful day!!!! Cardio Kicks would be a great way to celebrate.

Lisa
 
Yay, Debbie!!

Personally, I am very, very happy that you found Cathe and this forum! You are always there to give support, advice and encouragement to everyone - a great Friend - in fitness and otherwise!
I know that finding Cathe's tapes and then forum opened up a whole new world of fitness for me that I had no idea existed.
Happy Anniversary Debbie!!
Erica
 
Happy 1 year!!!!

I would love to do Cardio Kicks with you, but I am set up to do PS CST today, and after Cardio kicks I can hardly lift my arm, much less a weight! I'll be with you in spirit, though!!! Happy anniversary! 3 cheers for you and Cathe! :)

See What I Mean?

Everyone is so doggone nice here!! Thanks for all your kind words. Erin, guess what~I just finished doing CardioKicks AFTER I did CS&T!! Trust me, the ole arms are fried! But it hurts sooo good. Lisa, you are right, we have shared so much more then fitness here. It has been fun to follow Trevor(Michele) & Cathe thru their pregnancies. I even enjoy keeping up with the Pregnancy Forum as it just totally amazes me that Cathe fans can exercise right thru their pregnancy. I was so sick and I just realize how blessed & fortunate they are. Erica~If it hadn't been for this forum, I would never have met you and HoneyBunch. Who would have ever guessed I would have 2 such neat people almost in my backyard? Thanks for your friendship. Lisa & Kelly~You two have both been an inspiration to me with all your info you share and you both are also very upbeat. You help make this place what it IS!! Lynne~I'll be rooting you on tomorrow as you jump around to StepJam. Have fun! "See" you all around. Your-Friend-In-Fitness, DebbieH :)
 
RE: Me too!

I too congratulate you on your #1 anniversary with Cathe tapes. You have been very encouraging to me since I have been posting here and I thank you for that :) I know no one who exercises to tapes and when you tell people that is what you do they really don't understand and even sometimes think you are a little odd. Little do they understand the benefits and the fun from from doing these workouts. I am so glad I found out about Cathe tapes and that I can actually do them, and this forum. You guys are a great encouragement to each other and to me too! :):):)
 
You're a baaaad influence, DebbieH! :)

So, I read your posting that you did CST and THEN Cardio Kicks. "Gosh! I never thought of that. I can do that," I thought to myself. So I did, thinking of you and your special anniversary the whole time. :) It actually went much better than I had anticipated and my arms and shoulders were definitely toasty when I got done! :) Thanks for inspiring me to go beyond what I thought I could! :) That's what this forum is all about, right? Once again you have made a fellow forum user's day better. :)

Have a great anniversary!!!!!!

Erin
 
YEAAAAH Erin!!!

You go girl! I find that I feel much more comfortable doing strength before I do my cardio. There has been some discussion about it burning more fat also. I just like to do my weight work before I get all sweaty from the cardio.:7 Glad you enjoyed your workout. Give yourself a big ole pat on the back~That is, IF you can get your hand back there after all that arm work!! ;-) Thanks, you're a sweetie! Your-Friend-In-Fitness, DebbieH :)
 
Thank You Susan!

I know what you mean. We are a rare breed~Those of us who do exercise videos and IT IS hard to make people understand what a fulfillment we get out of it. We are so glad that you recently joined our group and I know you will be around for your 1st. Anniversary too! Have fun with all your tapes. Your-Friend-In-Fitness, DebbieH :)
 
RE: Congratulations Debbie!!

Boy what a fun crowd. :-jumpy But I don't have CK in my rotation until Saturday. I will be thinking of you Debbie when I am doing it though. :)

I have been a Cathe fan for a number of years but am fairly new to the forum crowd. My husband thinks it is amusing that I sit at the computer each night scrolling down the threads. I have learned so much, been encouraged, and inspired from you Debbie and everyone else. Thank you so much. Oh, is this getting mushy or what?

Have a great week everyone!

A little late but...

Happy Anniversary!!! What was your first Cathe rotation??? My year mark will be coming up in about three months. Time goes fast doesn't it? I can't imagine my life without Cathe now. I love all the tapes and DVD's and this forum. I didn't do Cardio Kicks Wednesday, but I did do PS SLA. You are right about the PS Series; the time goes so fast I don't even think about how I don't really like strength training! But I do like feeling stronger!
Did you ever make a decision about becoming a certified trainer? Just wondering...I still think you should do it! You are truly a friend-in-fitness!

I beat you by about 3 weeks...

.....'cause on Jan. 10 of last year I did the HiLo portion of MIC. I didn't get my big step yet, but it was on order. Then on Feb. 1 (right, 1 year ago today!)I did a full-blown Cathe cardio tape all the way through, and it was IMAX!!!!!!!! I lived to tell about it, and have learned to love that tape.

I'd done the Cathe weight tapes since April of the previous year, but I'd been chicken to try the step tapes. Now I have to force myself to do anything else, like run or Taeobo, which I must do to cross train.

So I'm cheesy, too. And proud to be kickin' butt at my age. :-jumpy

Deb, you're a great example to the people in your HiLo classes!
 
GO Debbie!

Congratulations! Isn't it great to think of how much you have learned and accomplished since your first Cathe rotation? And how much you'll keep learning thanks to Cathe and the Educated Crowd?

Here's looking forward to your 5th, 10th, 25th annivesary of Cathe rotations ;-)

ThanksYou All!!!

My computer is down at home so I stopped by my hubby's place of business to catch up!! You all made my day. Thanks for celebrating with me!!

Lynn, we are glad you decided to join us on our forum. Isn't it great keeping in touch with others who have the same thing in common? Good Luck with CK on Saturday. I'll be rooting you on.

Bev, Yes, the year has gone sooo fast! Thanks for your encouragement on the "Certification". I am still considering it. It never seems like there is enough hours in the day. I haven't ruled it out though. Thanks for being My-Friend-In-Fitness.

HB-Hey girlfriend! IMax was your very 1st. tape?? Whoa, & you DID live to tell us about it! LOL!! I am just like you~I have to force myself to do other forms of exercise to get my X-Training in. I am glad Cathe came out with Kickbox & more Hi/Lo on her CTX tapes so we get a good variety. Thanks for the kind words. I truly enjoy teaching my classes. I have met soooo many great friends. When you going to pop in & surprise me???

Janet,Yes, I have learned a wealth of knowledge thru this site. Not just from Cathe, but also you all. It's fun to swap ideas or just enjoy a laugh or two. It's also good that we can come here if we are struggling with a problem. There is always someone to cheer us up!! "See" you here in "20 YEARS"!!

Sorry, didn't mean to write a book. THANKS YOU all. I hope my computer is back up in the next day. If not, I'll catch up with you all soon. Your-Friend-In-Fitness, DebbieH :)
 
One more thing!

I don't have my Workout Journal here at my hubby's business, so I'll post later what my 1st. Cathe rotation was. I know it included some Firm tapes. Hopefully, our computer will be up & running at home SOON!! Your-Friend-In-Fitness, DebbieH :)
