Hardcore Series is my motivation!

The other morning I woke up and did not want to get out of bed to workout. It was nice and warm under the covers. Then I started to think about messing up my rotation and how to make up the workout later in the week. I also thought about Cathe and wondered what she was doing. Well, she is getting out of bed to film the Hardcore series for us. I got right out of bed and put my workout clothes on and got busy. I haven't missed a workout since.

What do you do for motivation?

I think about how I will feel when I am actually trying to DO the Hardcore series. Push myself now, keep up later. Don't push myself now, die during first Hardcore workout. }(
 
Susan-

Right now the Cathe Fitness Camps are my motivation. I want to go there 5 pounds lighter and able to not crumple in an exhausted mess on the floor during her workouts. DH said if I really want to go we'll try to work it out. I live in southern Illinois, so drive/fly??? I'm trying to be VERY consistent with my eating and workout schedule.

I think about the fresh, hot cup of coffee that is brewing in my kitchen (love having a coffee maker with a timer!). That pulls me out of bed, and once I'm out, the rest is mindless routine. Before I know it, the caffiene has kicked in, and I've got my workout clothes on. There's really nothing left to do except, well, workout!

Addiction has its usefulness, :)

That is EXACTLY what I would have written! I got a coffee pot w/ a timer a few months ago and LOVE it.

Susan C.M.:D
 
Yep...The coffee pot does it for me too!! Gotta love that fresh brewed morning coffee!! I do think that the new series has really motivated me with sticking to the November rotation. I almost never stick to rotations!!

Aila:)
 
I'm amazed that I've been so motivated since seeing the pics! I wasn't that motivated when she was filming the BB series or the Intensity series. I'm motivated enough to clean up my diet, stop eating after 8pm, do more ab and core work, increase the cardio and work on the lower body! All the things I've never had any desire to do before, and I've been a Catheite for 2 years. Who knows? Maybe I'll even work on a fake tan!!!!!
 
Oh, you guys are soooo refreshing!

I have posting on another forum which is having a Cathe "bash fest" right now about the pics on the new series. I have attempted to interject in Cathe's favor a few times and now am being labeled a Cathe Fanatic with a basic obsession about "one" instructor.
I mentioned that I thought it was nice of Cathe to post the pics and got soundly chewed out for that comment ( ie...Cathe wouldn't do that to be nice, it's strictly business, you know..), all the while insisting they are not be negative!

I am looking so forward to this series, and yes, it is my motivation. Am I now an obsessed loonytoon? Well, if that other forum is a judge, I guess so!

Anyways, thanks for letting me rant, I just felt totally ostrasized.

What do they do for an encore there, eat their young?

Thanks for listening.
 
Sounds like the old green-eyed monster to me!
(That's an idiom for jealousy for those English as a second language fans.)
 
We sure do, and I agree they are jealous.

It does remind me of what a jewel Cathe is. We already knew that nobody in this business cares about her fans or interacts with her fans like Cathe does. Those small-minded people simply don't understand that.

You don't know how much your encouragement means to me. I have literally been tearing my hair out over "there" trying to understand and be objective about the comments these posters are making.

I am so excited about this new series, and I am convinced that Cathe is not just a cold business woman with only monetary motivations. She has such a following that she doesn't need to post pics, she is doing that for the fans as much as to entice potential buyers.

You guys have really helped me "get myself back up and dust myself off!"


THANKS!:7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7
 
If she were a cold business woman, she would not be nearly as gracious and accomodating as she is. When she is on these forums, she tries to be kind to each and every person, giving them the benefit of the doubt, even when they don't return the favor to her. As a business person, you HAVE to protect your business or you lose it. If you don't turn a profit, you're dead in the water. But, I think she really wants people to do well and enjoy the benefits of her expertise.
And those pictures have me working my butt off to get ready!!!
Can't wait!

You know, anytime someone is truly good, someone will hate them for it.

When someone raises the bar, someone whines about it.

When a leader demands excellence, some people quit.

I wouldn't pay any attention to "them."
 
Maybe in the beginning of her video-making career, Cathe MIGHT have been doing things with business in mind (as any one of us in her position would). Now, she doesn't need that anymore. She has firmly established herself in the minds of her fans and she receives new fans every single day. She truly enjoys her work and the attention of her fans. NO ONE can be so nice in her videos and on her forums, then turn around and become a calculating monster in real life. It's her personality. You guys are right, others are just jealous, because neither they nor their instructors look half as good as CATHE and her crew!

:p

You guys are sooooo right!!

Jealousy is a very ugly beast!

What a shame people can't be happy about other's successes.

Cathe is a true gem.
 
JEALOUSY IS A MEAN THINGx( x( x( x( .....MISERY LOVES COMPANYx( x( x( x( .....WE ALL LOVE YOU CATHE & CREW.

CATHE FAN FOREVER

In the videofitness forum in the general discurssion I have seen messages of people saying the reasons because they are happy for not order the hardcore series. They say that cathe is doing nothing new and others comments that maked me become angry. If you don't want to order don't do it. I love all my cathe workouts and I have ordered the 11 dvd hardcore. I can't understand why somebody hates Cathe . She is warm when she is in the forums, see is very pleasant posting the pictures of her new workouts and , the most important, her workouts are the best.

NOBODY can make up a 100% unique workout every single time. Cathe adds flavor and humor to her workouts that no one else IMO can match. So even if there aren't many new things (which there are) in the new workouts, they motivate us to the highest degree to get up and bust our butts to look and feel our best! I WOULD pay top dollar just for that!

Hey Stayfit,

That is exactly where I was trying to "do battle". What amazed me was the fact that they keep insisting they are not being negative, yet all they did was find fault with Cathe. If that is not being negative, then I don't know what is...
