Hi lsearlv,
During a "Cathe Live" broadcast you will see Cathe taking water breaks throughout the entire workout as she does during any live class she teaches. A studio production is different because there are breaks in the filming and this is where Cathe and the crew normally prefer to take water breaks. Premixes also make water breaks not very practical as the water breaks could appear one after the other or at a time when not needed. Different people need to hydrate at different times too, so having a scheduled water break is not always practical. Makeup and the microphone we use also are problematic as far as taking water breaks go during a studio production. We always have water bottles on the studio set and Cathe will always tell you to take water as needed, but the pause button on the remote solves this problem and allows anyone to take a water break whenever they feel it is necessary.
