Intensity series:ME,pyramid upper body, pyramid lower body

Welcome to our group of CRAZIES!!!!!

I see LOTS of strength training, but only one cardio? Do you do running or have other videos at home??? Personally I really DON'T like cardio, but it's a necessary evil!!

Hi Violet,

Welcome to the forum. I found Cathe's videos a few months ago and I just love them. I do Taebo also. I have so many Billy Blanks DVD's. My favorites are the ones with the Billy Bands because those things are killer. I rotate my Cathe with Billy. One day of Cathe with weights, next day Cathe cardio, and then the next day Taebo and then a rest day. I hope you still incorporate Taebo. You'll love mixing up the different styles. Enjoy!

hi violet welcome to the boards

i have some tae-bo myself but i don't use it as much as cathe and my buns of steel collection. its pretty good but the ones i have the cueing and counting is a little off. i am sure after years of filming he fixed that little problem. i was looking at the orginial boot camp series(not the new ones with billy bands) and found that might work for me. lots of boot camp style calthetics(sp?)

i know you will love the intensity series workouts.you might consider IMAX2. the choreography is a little tricky,might take a few tries, but its an awesome interval workout.a real fat burner. and KPC is an awesome kickbox workout. slow and heavy is something i do on my own but learned alot about the movements from cathe but my vcr ate those workouts :-(.

and since you are getting married why not pick up cathe wedding video. its been a hot topic on the boards since she started her vhs sale.

Hi Violet and welcome!

It looks like you got some great videos. You will have a blast. Some of them take a while to learn the steps, but once you do, you will have so much fun!

I look forward to getting to know you better!
 
Hi there Violet and WELCOME to the forum! Take your time with the workouts and allow for a brief "learning period". They are super fun and very effective workouts!!! You'll be hooked before you know it!!

WELCOME!!!
 
Get ready to feel the burn.
Once you do Cathe you never go back.
Before long you will be ordering them all.
It will be gym style, then you will be reviewing them all to get what you don't have.
You will then be come crazy and addicted like the rest of us.
Never sleep, just work out , go to work and eat, and be on this chat!!!!

Anyways, good luck. Take it easy at 1st. You will know what i mean

hi,
thank you all for welcoming me. I can't wait for the tapes to arrive. Since i have Taebo which i love, i thought to complement taebo, I needed some weight training videos. I do other cardio, i have videos from cindy crowford, kathy smith, susan powter, denise austin and others. I have about 40 exercise videos. I also love walking, i wish i could run but it is difficult for me. I used to walk 10 miles on sundays. As i mentioned my goal is to loose 20 pounds and tone up bit. I borrowed Coremax and step max from my local library, the stability ball exercises are a killer. How do you get your butt that high? I think i will get coremax and the bootcamp next. I love step aerobics with very little combinations. i felt a little lost with step max. My fiancee is making a wood step for me.

A little bit about me, I love to exerise, I get up betweem 5:00 and 5:30 am to exerise six days a week, but i also love food which is the reason why i have 20 pounds that have to go. I am vegeterian who eats fish, but no eggs or milk product. if i didn't eat fish i would be a vegan.
thank you

Hi Violet,

Welcome! I agree with what everyone else has said. You've ordered some good work outs. I agree with easing into the work outs. I went gung ho when I first found Cathe and I had a hip flexor strain or whatever it was.

Yes, get Bootcamp and Core Max. Heck, you'll probably end up getting them all! ;-) Bootcamp was my first purchase. You won't be disappointed.

Enjoy your new work outs!
