FINALLY!!!!

[avgm1972]

The sweat was stinging as it dropped into my eyes .... several times I thought about giving up .... but FINALLY last night for the FIRST TIME I got all the way through Maximum Intensity Cardio without once stopping and saying to myself "What are you doing, Cathe? Are you trying to KILL me??"

Damn, I even called a couple of people at 11:28 p.m. when I was done and told them about it (they didn't quite understand the significance, but were gracious in their mumbled sleepy congratulations ...

YAY ME!!

YAY YOU!!!!:7 That workout is a killer! That's hilarious that you called people to rave about your accomplishment, they can never truly understand your excitement until they have experienced the heart thumping, sweatfest that we know and LOVE as MIC!!}(

AWESOME JOB!!!!!

Take Care

Alexandra,

I'm cheering for you and LOL about the late night phone calls.

Congratulations and believe me, I understand the significance!! Geez-o-pete, I still can't make it through the last cardio combo in Body Fusion! Who knows if I'll ever graduate to MIC. I bow to your greatness!:7

Congratulations Alexandra! I'm still looking forward to the day when I can get through MIC without stopping but I'm getting real close. Good for you!

That is hysterical!! I don't have that one yet - but now I am scared! x(

I can totally relate to that feeling, I got through all of Kick Max the other day and felt like "Yeah take that .}( ". Though I am just starting with Cathe so I am happy to not completly fall over after just the 1-5 premix for IMAX 2!

I turned my personal trainer friend on to Cathe and she called me the other day completely out of breath after doing all of Kick Max herself and said "I think I have finally met my match!". Felt good to have someone else be just out of breath as me :7

Enjoy every painful, sweaty minute of it.

I feel your joy! I finished it myself for the first time about two weeks ago. Telling my husband about it was just not the same as sharing it with all of you who TRULY UNDERSTAND!

Congrats! Bask in the glow!

I'm SO in awe! I tried MIC for the first time last week and about died! I kept thinking we were about done, but it just kept going! The one I'm struggling with is the original IMAX. I was getting pretty upset with Cathe during those plie jacks. What, is she kidding me? Are there about 100 of those to do non-stop? I thought I was in good shape, but I still have a lot of work to do evidently. I had to stop, and then got so frustrated with myself I was about crying! Congratulations!

I am with you on the pile jacks on Imax 1 too. I have had some problems with my right knee cap sliding out of alignment, so the pile jumps and the power scissors are things that I am kind of scared to do ... its the lunging and weight-bearing on one leg combination that scares me.

I think Imax 1 is probably the hardest of the Imax too!
