    Which workout do you think is the most challenging?

    Imax 3. Any workout where Cathe spends more time in the air than on the ground - that in itself means difficulty is through the roof! I also rank Insanity up there on the extremely challenging list.

    What is the Most Ridiculous Thing You've Done for Beauty/Weight Loss?

    I bought one of those belts that went around your waist and "zapped" you - it was supposed to exercise ab muscles and help you tone and tighten and what not. Best of all, you got to use this gooey clear ultrasound like gel on your body parts first - so you'd be a sticky, zapped up mess. Oh...

    Can I do both Squat Rack and Plyo Legs??

    I don't have a squat rack and don't plan to purchase (although I will likely purchase more plates for my barbell set and lift heavier than I usually do). I am planning to incorporate Plyo Legs into my weekly rotation once I get going with STS, which means I'll have 2 (or 3, depending on how...

    Just for the record, I was one of the VERY last pre-orders

    You know, if I'd thought I could have picked mine up, I would have been there in a flash. My 10 month old daughter already "works out" to Cathe (she rolls my barbell all over the ground and she walks around my workout space while I kickbox. She also enjoys crawling around on my step - when I'm...

    Just for the record, I was one of the VERY last pre-orders

    ... I ordered on December 30th at approx. 9 p.m. on the last day of the presale. I just checked my email, and at 5:20 this evening, I received my UPS shipping email. I opted for UPS Ground shipping and I'm glad I didn't upgrade to the 2nd day, as I live 45 mins from Cathe's gym and my package...

    Any other pregnant road trippers?

    I'm not attending this year's road trip - but I did attend the 2007 Road Trip where I was known as "the pregnant road tripper." I was 9 weeks' pregnant with my daughter then. I just wanted to offer encouragement and support to anyone who may be PG (and to offer my props to you - at 28 weeks...

    I have the health club step in black and grey with the black risers.

    Cathe, how is Brenda doing?

    I am sending my very best wishes for a speedy recovery to Brenda. It inspires me to hear Cathe's update of how positive Brenda is about her injury. I know she will be well rested and back on her feet (or in the case of step a la Cathe - on her toes!) in no time. My thoughts and prayers are...

    New York Times would like to hear from you!

    How exciting Cathe! I am so thrilled that you are going to be getting such long overdue recognition. You certainly deserve it - you're a fitness inspiration for all of us. I'll definitely look for the editor's posts and comment about what an amazing experience the RT was. Tracy

    Pre-Sale -- Finally Ordered!

    I am always a last minute presale orderer :) I ordered last evening at 8:30 because I wanted to take advantage. I'm finishing up my first trimester of pregnancy right now but I just had to order them - I want to be able to start learning choreography, even if it's with modifications. From the...

    Doing the Happy Dance!!!!

    Heather - It is so good to see my social butterfly and sweet friend posting with such joy and happiness. The RT weekend seems like it was such a whirlwind but one of the best weekends of my life, so enjoyable and just inspirational to be around everyone. The energy was infectious. I am so...

    Let's Chat

    Hi Cathe! I am sure I probably missed you as it's after 2, but I just wanted to thank you again for such a wonderful RT weekend. I really had the time of my life and I am even more inspired by all of the fit, healthy women I had the pleasure of working out with. :) Thank you again for...

    Ok, this whole food thing is getting really annoying...

    Oh my goodness. You could be writing from my perspective. I'm 8 weeks with #2 and I have craved some of the most bizarre things that I never would have wanted before- yesterday I bought fudge peanut something or other candy and TGIFriday's cheese snack sticks to chow down on with my lunch. I...
