when not working, i have been known to flip to fittv during cathe hour b/c there is nothing else good to watch. maybe preview a premix i want to try but mostly leave fittv on and watch those shows LOL.
I'll put on FitTV in the morning. Cathe's on from 7:00-8:00. Even if I don't sit and watch it, sometimes just listening to her voice while I'm getting ready gets me motivated for the day.
This is funny...the other morning by DD (7 yrs old) got up before I had a chance to turn on the tv and I heard her flip through her channels before landing on FitTV. Cathe was doing RS. She sat and watched it until it was time to get dressed!!! I've created a monster. A good monster, though!
I do the same. Especially when I am away on vacation or at a conference for work or something, and I have to work out in a hotel fitness room. I turn the tv to fit tv so I can watch Cathe while I do my boring stuff on the treadmill or whatever.
I watch her on fittv in the morning while getting ready for work at 7 after I have just finished my morning workout, sometimes at 11am if I'm at home and cruising the boards or cleaning the house, and sometimes at 7pm when I get home from work and need to unwind from a long day of work.
I also preview premixes while doing the laundry. If I go into the basement I always feel the need to turn on the dvd player and listen to her.
I watch her on FitTv in the morn. See what's playing that I might not have in the collection yet. Maybe give me an idea for my eve workout when I get home. Also, any of you hear a song on the radio and you know immediately what step combo goes with it?? Hubby thinks I'm nuts. Maybe I am, oh well!!
Oh, yeah, I look at the catalog daily!!! Her catalog is more like a luxurious brochure, and I, too am always trying to figure out what my next purchase will be. I also refer to it when I want to decide what premix to use in my upcoming rotations. There are so many to choose from!!!
Well, once I get FitTv I'm sure that I'll do the same thing!! We are actually getting Dish Network tomorrow (we've never had cable!). Although I have a lot of Cathe DVD's, I'll still be excited to watch them on tv!
I've been nagging my hubby that we should switch to a cable company that offers Fit TV so I can watch Cathe on TV...even though I already own all her available workouts.
When I am in a bad mood DH turns on Cathe to put me in a better mood, and it always works.
Also after teaching group fitness and personal training all day I often come home and turn on fittv. DH thinks I am nuts, but I just tell him it is how we know I am in the right job.
I enjoy watching Cathe on FitTV because once I learn the workout, I rarely watch it while doing it. So this gives me a chance to see Cathe & the crew, their facial expressions, occasional mistakes, etc...
I knew I was over the edge this weekend - we went to a wedding reception with loud, fast music played by the DJ - I was thinking not how to dance to it but how to fit various Cathe cardio workout moves to it, e.g. KPC!!!
