Hello everyone!I am a Cathe Newbie. I have been doing the FIRM for a year now and decided that I wanted to try Cathe after reading so many great things about her w/o's. I got Circuit Max a few weeks back and thought I would literally die before it was over, but I did make it all the way through and felt wonderful when I was through! My DH got me Supersets and Push Pull for Christmas and I preveiwed it last nite and will attempt Superset tonite. It was so refreshing in this w/o to see that you do enough of reps to actually fatigue the muscle! That is one of my complaints with the FIRM, you just do not do enough reps and I loved in this w/o that it was straight forward weights without a lot of dancey moves and stepping up on the Fanny Lifter to do you weights. I think I am going to be a Cathe addict soon. I will still do my FIRMs since I have so many, but can definetly see Cathe as being my main w/o in 2005! Hope everyone has a great and fit New Year!

Hi Kathy and welcome!:)

I am very new to Cathe and to this forum also (about a week).

I was also a devout "Firmie" for about 2 years before I decided to give Cathe a try. I ordered her Basic Step and Body Fusion and Cardio Hits DVDs. I have done BS/BF a few times now and I love it! I have yet to tackle Cardio Hits as the choreography is much more intricate.

I had made a promise to myself that I would not order any more Cathe until I finished paying off Christmas and I broke that promise this morning already! I couldn't help it-I'm already addicted!!!:D I ordered the 8 dvd bundle that includes the full Crosstrain Express series as well as Cicuit Max and Cardio Kicks! It was such a great deal and the Crosstrain Express Series looks like it will be really good for me!:)I figure that I should have enough Cathe after this order comes in to keep me busy and challenged for quite some time!

So anyway, welcome welcome welcome and don't fight it! lol You WILL love Cathe and you WILL get addicted!:D

Kathy,

Hi and Welcome!! Cathe's workouts are the best and so are these forums.. :7

Let us know how you like Supersets/Pushpull. I love the lower body blast premix on Supersets.

Thank you all for making me feel very welcome. Beverly,I went to your photos and all I can say is OMG! You look wonderful. How long did it take you to get so cut? Is this all from Cathe or do you do other w/o's? Inquiring minds want to know!!!! You are absolutely beautiful. I am so jealous!

Kathy:eek:
 
Kathy,

Hi! Thank you for the compliments. I would have to say my look is mostly from Cathe workouts.. I do a lot of running though. I love it... It is my main cardio.

You will see great results with Cathe's cardio and weight workouts.. She is the best!!!

I am a HORRID runner! It's one form of exercise that I avoid cuz I just can't do it! lol.:p

I'm with you Wendy. I have tried my best to be a runner or even a slow jogger, but I just cannot do it. Not for me. I will just have to dream of a runner's body and keep my old one or maybe a new Cathe body! Wouldn't that be nice.

Hi Kathy, I'm a newbie on this site too. Like you I had been doing the Firm, that is, until I bought a heart rate monitor and found that their cardio wasn't even getting me in my target heartrate range. Enter Cathe, and now I can keep in my range for at least 40 minutes out of each 60 minute workout. Yay! I purchased Cardio Hits and Circuit Max in September and have been hooked since.

Through eBay and other avenues I've scrounged some other Cathe workouts but yesterday afternoon I ordered the Intensity Series. And guess what? Today when I came home from lunch, UPS had a box by my back door -- less than 24 hours after I ordered it! I am so psyched to get started with it tomorrow morning.
 
Hi Kathy and welcome

The "look" of some of the gals here make ALOT of us jealous and I always think they should be in Cathes DVDs because they dooooooo look so good!

Infact, most of them look better than alot of Fitness Instructors I see at the gym! so I have been "VERY" inspired being on this forum

Enjoy the ride

Thanks to all for making me feel so welcome on this board! I have read the forums for a while trying to get a feel for everyone's opinion on the Cathe w/o's and you have all been very helpful. I did Supersets last night and half of Circuit Max that was all I could hold out for, but I am hooked on Cathe already! I brought my catalog with me today and I am going to order a series. It seems that everyone likes the Intensity Series. Would this be a good one for me to order? I know what you mean about the heartrate with the FIRM, they do not get your heartrate up and keep it there. Believe me my heartrate was up last night with Circuit Max!!! I have only seen Beverly's photos, but I am going to be looking for more. I am going to look like that one day! I know she looks better than alot of instructors I have seen. Again thanks for the welcome.

Kathy:)
 
Welcome Kathy! It only takes buying ONE Cathe workout and you are hooked! Welcome to Cathe's world! We look forward to getting to know you better. Have FUN with your new workouts. (BTW, The "I" Series is sooo fun. Great choice.)

Welcome Kathy! A lot of us were once Firm Followers as well until Cathe stole our heart (and excess body fat)!

About wanting to order the Intensity Series...YES YES YES! I have it and it is a really great one! I have had it for over a year and not one of those workouts have collected any dust! Really keeps me challenged!

Order it, it is so awesome! Let us know what you think of it!
 
I tried out IMAX2 today. Oh, my little heart rate monitor was busy! I actually got over 80% in some of the blasts. Can't wait to try the rest of the Intensity Series now.
