Cardio Coach - A New Generation?

Could be.

We all know how wonderful Sean O'Malley was, God rest his soul and I sure hope he has found his peace. His workouts are outstanding and he was a very motivating coach and was able to get me on a treadmill and run. That in itself was a miracle!

Now, Candace Grass - who did Cardio Coach #6 with Sean - has a website and workouts of her own. I have been doing her Run Fit workout and it is an awesome workout - one of my favorites right now. She is very motivating in this workout and I listen to it from beginning to end. Usually at the end of the last challenge I just put on music and cool down. With this workout, I listen to all of it because she is just so motivating.

I recommend those of you who loved Cardio Coach to check out her workouts. She only has one running workout but maybe we can get her to do more. She has walking workouts and other types of workouts as well.

Here is her website:

Candace Grasso Home - Fit Is It

Check it out and see what you think!
 
I also have her Run Fit workout and highly recommend it. I like that it has a long warmup/steady state section before the intervals. :)

I would love it if she would do more Run Fits! :)

Hi,

I would be very interested in trying these...love Cardio Coach workouts, and still sad about Coach Sean.

I wish she would give more detail about the Walk levels....it appears that you do a 15 minute mile in level I, but a 20 minute mile in level II? Unless I am reading this wrong. Also, is there a way to hear a "snippet" of any of them like you can on CC or ITrain?
 
Hi Deb,
I think you read it wrong. The workout takes you 2 miles in 30 minutes in volume I and 3 miles in 40 minutes in volume II. So that would be a 15 minute mile first then a 13.3 minute mile in the second. ;)
 
Hi,

I ended up downloaded the Walking I workout, but it will not upload to iTunes! Not sure what is wrong, or if I am doing something wrong. I never have any trouble with ITrain downloads, or when I got all the Cardio Coach ones. :confused:
 
I love Candace's workouts also

Candace was friends with Coach Sean and did Cardio Coach 6 (special guest appearance by world class athlete, Candace Grasso). There were two CC 6 workouts, one narrated by Sean and the other narrated by Candace. I wish she'd do more workouts also.

Hi,

I had e-mailed Candace's site with my download problem, and came home today with 3 messages on my answering machine from her!

She was letting me know what my problem could be, and how to possibly fix it.. I then came to my computer and saw her respond to the e-mail as well.

That is what I call Customer Service! I did end up figuring out how to do it, and Candace also told me that you can buy her downloads through the iTunes site, which would make it easier to get to the iPod etc.

I will surely buy from her again! :)
 
I love Cardio Coach workouts, I still do them on my trainer and listen to the music only cd's when I lift weights. I'm sending out soul vibes to you Coach Sean, missing you very much.
 
I love Candace's cardio coach 6. Can anyone post the length or breakdown of her runfit? I couldn't find details about the run on her site.
 
Sure!

6 minute warmup
10 minute steady state
8 - 30 second sprints/30 second rest
10 minute steady state
3 - 2 minute race pace treks, 2 minute rest
6 minute cool down

It's awsome! And the music is really good, too.
 
So have any of you done this workout yet? What do you think? I did it again this morning. I LOVE IT!!!

I wish Cathe would do these types of workouts for the treadmill. She'd be good at it, she is runner after all!
 
Debbie,

Thanks for posting this workout! I purchased Run Fit a few days ago and have done it twice. I love it! I have Cardio Coach 1-8 and have always enjoyed those, but after Sean's passing I do find sometimes I don't feel up to doing them. I know he would want us all to keep going and enjoy the workouts, but there are some days the thought of it just makes me sad.

I agree with you 100%, Cathe would make an awesome cardio coach!! She is so motivating, I would definitely buy them!
