New To Cathe

[lagianconda]

I am relatively new to Cathe -- but I am carrying the fervor of the newly converted, let me tell you. Just a little history. I am 43, have been exercising regularly since 1987. I started with floor aerobics (Jackie Sorenson, then Jane -- remember them?) and then became a runner. Ran exclusively for many, many years. I even did a half-marathon, the very zenith of my running career.

About a year ago I realized that even with all the darn running I was doing I was gaining a couple of pounds a year and my torso and upper body were getting flabby. So I cast about and ordered the Tamiliee Webb "I Want Those...." series. I really loved lifting those weights!!! And I loved what it did for me, physically and mentally.

Although I was intimidated, I ordered my first Cathe (PS -- Chest, Triceps, Shoulders) in November 2002 and have been hooked since. I have just finished a six week rotation of the entire PS series and my questions is (I bet you thought I'd NEVER get to it)...what next????

My goal .... increase endurance and strength. I'd like to see more definition.

I am not a "stepper". Just interested (for the time being) in strength. I'll keep running a couple of times a week for cardio.

Am really interested in your input. You are (as Cathe would put it) a well-educated crowd!

Hi There!

I started out with Tamille Webb too. I am mostly interested in weights and just started venturing into cardio. For the next Cathe video, I would get Power Hour. The music is great and a little tougher than MIS. I also prefer the ab section in PH to MIS. Enjoy!

From what I hear her Slow & Heavy Series is great for increasing strength and muscle. I'll be getting this myself soon! Hope this helps you! Susan
Just wanted to add that her new Pyramid tapes are also excellent as is her Muscle Endurance tape!! If you were looking at getting some of the new ones I'd try the Muscle Endurance first! She really works you over. ;-)
