Hi Everyone! I'm free tomorrow (Thursday) from 9:30am to 10:30am and would love to chat with all of you about any questions you may have. I'm so excited to have this time to connect. There has been so much going on that I have not had a chance to visit you here. So please pour yourself a cup of coffee/tea (or your favorite beverage) and let's meet here in the morning and chat.

Who's in? :)
 
I would love to chat with ya miss Cathe but I go to work for 6:30 west coast time.

I do have a question though, I noticed that on gilad's website that he has a live chat once a month. Have you ever considered doing something like that?

Hopefully I can join you all one day for a good fitness chat :)
 
Hi Cathe,

I don't think my boss would understand it if I chatted with you and got paid for it, so I'm hoping to ask a question in advance. When you do so much, and have accomplished so much that no others have, how do you handle all the critics and naysayers that arise whenever you put out a new product? I don't really mean how do you handle it from a business sense, I mean more how do you react personally to it?
 
Hi Cathe,

another question in advance, I love the photos you posted of the new workouts, are they stills from the actual videos? or photos from the set during production, and if they were, who took them? (sorry if you've already said somewhere...) truly awesome!

TIA:)

Hi Cathe,
I can't be here "live" with you but I also have a question. My husband and I are going to be in Texas to see you. YEAH! What kind of steps does he need to work on for your step class? He's comfortable with the weights and kickboxing, but not much of a stepper.

lower body

Hello Cathe, I'm doing STS 3 1/2 month program now and tomorrow is my last workout for Meso 1. My lower body is strong but has too much "fat" under all that muscle. Would it be ok to use butts & gutts and/or gym style legs 3-4 times during my recovery week? Thank you!

Good Morning Cathe.
Have you and Chris picked out covers for the new DVDs yet?

Thanks

Good morning Cathe! Akadia sends squeezy hugs. She is almost big enough for her Cathe onesie now. :)
 
Hi Ebonynicole!

Thanks for expressing an interest. I have thought of it but never actually made the attempt to do it because my schedule is very unpredictable and I didn't want to offer something that I wasn't sure I could commit to. Thank you again for asking and perhaps sometime in the future I can consider it.

Hi Cathe!

Good Morning Cathe, I just wanted to say that I am having a great time working out with you and I am looking forward to your new workouts. I have a couple of questions for you.

I have a 7 year old daughter that loves to workout with me with but the only problem is that she has a hard time keeping up with the videos after about 20 mins. We have tried working out with the videos made for kids but the instructors are just not Cathe style. Have you ever thought about making a family workout video? It would be great to have a workout video with kids and parents.

I can not wait to meet you on a future road trip. Do you know when future road trip dates will be announced?

Thanks again Cathe for your great workouts!
 
Hi Cathe. No specific questions but just wanted to tell you how much I am looking forward to STS Total Body. I've completed two rounds of STS, the second round with Shock Cardio. I have to say that Shock Cardio complements STS Strength beautifully. I particularly love the Heavy Bag bonus in MMA Boxing, which I use all the time as an add-on.

Keep them coming!
 
Hi Cathe,

Looking forward to the new workouts! I know Atlanta is one of the original cities you announced for your Eggland's Best Roadtrip. Do you know an approximate time frame (2011 or 2012) that you will be planning on coming here? Curious minds want to know:)

Thanks
 
Thank you for the sweet note Danielle!

How fun to know that you two are working out together. Keep up the great work.

Unfortunately right now there is not enough demand out there for this type of product but if there was I would absolutely consider it.

I honestly don't know when we will be announcing the future road trip dates. But I do know they are heavily in the works and the next one should be announced soon.

Thanks for joining in today!

Thank you for your interest Carolyn! I honestly don't know those specifics at this time but my best guess is that it will be in latter part of 2011. Don't hold me to that though ;)

How fun to hear from you Jbliff! I think you will enjoy STS Total Body. It provides the poerfect switch up between the STS 3 month program or is great as a stand alone total body workout. You'll love the premix options too :) Thanks for letting me know that you like the combo of the STS strength and Shock Cardio together. Yes, I enjoy the heavy bag bonus too. Keep rockin' and shockin' :D

Thank You Linda! The clarity on the pictures is great isn't it? They were taken live in real time right on the set as we were filming. Our photographer is a long time friend and professional and his work is just amazing. I was so focused on filming I didn't even notice him off on the sidelines clicking away. Thank you again.

Hi Cathe,
Just wanted to let you know I love your work-outs. I'm now a new mom of a 3 month old beautiful baby girl & am having trouble squeezing regular work-outs in. It's been tough getting to the gym...but luckily I have a collection on wonderful Cathe videos!

I love the new downloads!

Hi Kim! I usually keep my step moves more basic for the first 20 minutes to get a feel for the participants. Each road trip is different and some groups are more interested in step than others. So if I see a group is really into step I will start to add in some mambo's, chacha's triple steps around the corner, pony's corner to corner. shuffle down the board, etc. If they are not as into step choreography I will stay more basic with dynamic outer thigh moves and outer thigh around the world, and hop turns, repeaters , etc. No matter what, he needs not to worry, we have so many workouts that whole weekend that if step doesn't fully click with him he will surely get his game face on in another workout :D I can't wait to meet you both.
