I bought this DVD some time ago and I've watched it so many times I had it memorized. Something in my head kept saying don't, you can't, you shouldn't... Well, this morning I did it. I did the whole thing! Granted 30/30 is the easier of the 3 workouts but for me, I'm still in disbelief! I did the plyos, the jumps, the lunges and finished about 9:00. It's now about 1:00 and I feel great! A little sore in the backside...where I need it!!

I guess I'm so thrilled with this I had to share because I had really thought it wasn't possible. Now, I'm ready for those new DVDs and can't wait!

I should have added in there that I have Cathe to thank for getting me in shape enough to do 30/30. I could not have attempted this even a few months ago. Thanks Cathe, from the bottom of my heart!!
 
I too stayed away from the Hiit dvd for a while. I guess I scare easily when it comes to Cathe:(. But I did it and loved it! In one of her wkouts she says "Don't worry, no one is watching". So when I come upon something difficult, I just go for it, even if its clumsy, 1 inch off the floor, barely lifting etc....I don't really care. The point is I'm moving and trying my best! Eventually I'll get there. I got here didn't I?

Good for you! Hiit is now one of my favorites....modifications and all! Be proud of your accomplishment!
 
Oh congratulationsI. I love the HiiTs. DWP is my personal favorite - in fact, probably my favorite Cathe cardio of all time. And even though Cathe says her team feels 30/30 is the easiest, I find 40/20 the easiest, yet it's supposed to be the hardest. So try the others and you may be surprised! Have fun!

Me too! I just did 30/30 for the first time last week. I did have to take more of a break before each of the consecutive power kicks sections (OMG!!!!!!!), but when I finished, I added another 4 intervals to make a nice, round 20 because it is a more complete number! For me, just having the courage, or maybe insouciance (pft! I can do anything for 30 secs! If I hate it, I can stop anytime.... Let's just give this a try and see what happens.....) to start and give something new a whirl is ALL THE BATTLE! Of course, that was last week, before the PMS-induced blues hit. If it had been this week, I'd never have put that DVD in!!

Good for you Susan: how about this coming week we try 40/20? What do you say?!!

Trixoo: thanks for saying that difficulty is a question of perception! You give me courage to tackle the 40/20 and DWP. I was scared there, for a while.....!

Clare! We're on. 40/20 here we come!! I was going to start Cathe's October rotation but I really liked September's rotation. I was doing the XTrain low impact HiiT instead of the other HiiT because, as I said earlier, I was afraid of it. But I think I'll do September another month and do the 40/20 this week! Thanks for that inspiration! Maybe that's what we need when we feel down...a cyber workout partner to keep us going!

Thanks to everyone for the encouragement! Onward and upward we go!
