Cathlete
Hello All! I am new here I have been working out to Cathe for 3 weeks now. I absolutely love it. My name is beth and I have not been able to find her dvd's in stores but I have been able to tape them from FIT TV but it is hard to keep searching for them when I want to do them SO Help me out here where are the best deals? I see on Ebay everyone bids on these. And forgive my ignorance but I see alot of abbreviations in your posts could someone send me a list what they stand for when using her exercises. I have 5 year old twin girls that just went off to full time kindergarten and a almost 2 year old boy. I came from working out to Denise Austin for 5 years I wanted a big change and I got it with Cathe I am 34 and This is the first and only forum I have signed up for I am so excited to learn so much from you and Cathe. Look forward to chatting and posting.

Thanks Beth6395

Can you tell I have a few things bookmarked myself :)
As for the best place to get cathe videos. I started like you recording off of fit tv. Some of her beginner workouts are avaiable at target and walmart but I prefer to order here off her site or from http://www.collagevideo.com/ for the longer more advanced workouts.
Here they do have a guarentee and they are quite expensive everywhere. I know there has been some problems with ebay and pirating and the prices still get very high there so its really up to you. Good luck and welcome.

Beth, Cathe's workouts are not available in stores (except I think Coremax and Stretchmax are available in the Discovery store). So, you will need to buy them from here or from Collage.

Stuff comes up on ebay, but the prices get driven up really fast and with shipping, there is usually little money saved. There have been issues with pirated copies there, so your best bet is to support Cathe here. :)

Welcome, and enjoy! Cathe rocks!

Hi Beth,you can also go to videofitness.com where they have a video exchange listing.It's a great way to trade workouts you don't use anymore.I just mailed off two workouts I didn't like for Cathe's IMAX 3,a pretty good deal for $1.90 in postage,don't you think.
Have fun, Karen
:)
 
Oh, I realized after I posted my response that Cathe does sell some vid's in store in conjunction with The Step products. You can find these at Walmart or Target.

Good luck!
