Can a beginner do Cathe?

[jzsnow]

I have heard such great things about cathe! Before I got pregnant with my 2nd, I was doing the firm. I tried today (9 weeks post partum with a c-section) to do a short firm sculpting tape and I about died! I am WAY out of shape. It's funny cause I am 30 pounds lighter than when I was firming and taeboing regularly!!

Anyways, I don't want to go back to firming...I find it a bit boring and have to force myself to do it. However, I can't deny the results.

Could i start out with cathe now?? If so, what should I buy...tape and step wise.

Thanks!
Jessica

I would start out with Basic Step and Body Fusion.

Hi Jessica and welcome to the Cathe forums! Congratulations on your little one!

Yes, Cathe has some great beginner DVD's and she posted a 12 week beginner rotation to go with them. Here's the link:

Cathe offers nice long previews of her DVD's, too, so you can get a good idea of what they're like before you buy them. You might also want to check out the Preganancy and Postpartum forum for good help and support.

Anyone can do Cathe's workouts with modifications. Lower your step, lighten your weights, don't kick as high or squat as low. Good luck.

Exactly, just modify and of course pause the video if needed. I do
