I preordered the new workouts last year since they were such a good price but after viewing the blog, I think I got myself into more than I can handle!!
Intermediate and SCARED!

Don't be scare, Be excited. The great thing about Cathe is that you can do it at your own level and pace. No one's watching you. If you can't get through it all at once, don't fret, just set small goals and before you know it you'll be doing those new DVDs like a pro. (At least that's what I'm telling myself anyway LOL)

Don't be scared! Just remember that the workouts as shown are something to work up to, not something that one can necessarily do right out of the box. (And those people who never have to modify and can do all of Cathe's workouts all-out are actually in a less favorable situation, because they have nothing to work up to, and can more quickly outgrow the workouts).
Modify as much as you need to: don't be shy about it!
Remember that your body is your best personal trainer, and challenge yourself, but don't try to push yourself to do too much just because that's what's shown on the DVD.
You might want to add just one workout at a time into your rotation, then after you feel like you're doing pretty well with that one, move on to another (which has the benefit of making the workouts 'last longer,' but which doesn't work well for the impatient!).

Brendazzz, I have felt this way about each and every Cathe workout I've encountered!! To me this is now part of the fun... I work at them, and then tire of them and rotate them out... and by the time they are back in my player again, WOW I can do them so much better than I thought I could!!!
Don't worry about it-- but keep working at it!! Surprise yourself! :7

Wow, I like the way you think
.
I too get intimidated sometimes when I do these workouts--I'll look at my puny little weights or I'll take a break when they're really cranking and think to myself, "I'm not good enough." But then I remind myself that this isn't the last time I'll be doing these workouts, and I'll get better each time I do them.
I'll get there eventually.
