Hello all! Well, after hurting myself on the second DVD of Chalean Extreme I have decided to return her. I bought the deluxe version for A LOT of money. I chose the 3 payment plan. So far I've been charged $107, then a second increment of $69 something and next month I'll be charge another...

Thank you for the Input! I've been busy at work and of course nursing my wounds. It's been over a week since I've done ANY weight work, including my own body weight in the form of pushups, etc. I've just been walking, which makes me so irritated because when I bought CLX I was ready to take a...

Hi ladies, Thank you for being my safe place to fall here. Well, to make a long story short- I've Firmed for years. It felt like time to change it up and go heavier. Before joining the Cathe ranks and getting STS, I decided to go for CLX. I waited for a month, FINALLY got my package from the...

I must say, you are an amazing writer. Seriously, I would buy your book if you wrote one! I can totally relate. Thank you for the laugh. Amy

OK...I just got the shaft trying to order Chalean Extreme through Beach Body. I was supposed to get it by 8/28 and it turns out since they sent it Parcel Post, I'll be lucky to see the thing before October. That frustration aside, I'm thinking of getting Insanity for my teenage son (and me!)...

Hi! I've been a Firmie for a long time and to be honest I'd go with the Transfirmer instead of the Wave. The workouts are much tougher, there is more variety and overall give a good moderate workout. I have the Wave and just haven't gotten into it. As a piece of equipment, it's OK but the...

I am curious if anyone has had a good experience with purchasing straight from Beachbody in terms of shipping? I am asking because I ordered CLX Deluxe and paid top dollar for shipping (and the product) only to find out that even though they promised my order to be here within 7 business...

Thank you so much I really appreciate all of your candid and thoughtful responses. I am going to see if I can get CLX cheaper on ebay and if not, I'll just jump into STS for the money. I am glad that STS workouts can be shortened. I'm used to 45 min Firm videos and my highest weight is 12...

Hi ladies, I am what I would consider an intermediate exerciser. I have been doing the Firm for years, but I'm finding that I'm just needing to move ahead with my fitness and I am searching for the best fit for me. I already preordered Shock Cardio but I do not have the STS program. I would...

Thank you That does make sense. So after I take all the 1RM tests and print a workout card for each disc, the card will tell me that I would, in the scenario you gave, need to lift 9 lbs for bicep curls, or would I have to do the math prior to the workout to figure that out? I am used to the...

Can I add on a stupid question along these lines? I took the 1RM test for one exercise on Disc 1, entered my poundage and the number of reps I did. Then I got some crazy number which was my 1RM. Ok...what the heck does that mean exactly? I am just now ordering STS, but I thought I'd get a...

Thank you ladies! I think I'm going to take the leap. I really like the idea that I can plug in the video that's next on the list and not think. The predetermined schedule is really exciting to me! If I could ask another question- if there are two schedule versions- the 3 month and the 6...

Hello all, I am new to the Cathe forums. I do have a couple of videos that I LOVE, but I am really considering taking the leap and buying the STS set. I am 5'4" and weigh around 140 give or take a few pounds. I would love to lose these last 5 pounds but more than weight I'd love to continue to...
