I thought it was choreography was easier to grasp than Rhythmic step too! I loved it. i've had my dvd's since last week but because i am 5 months pregnant, i was a bit scared to start them. i did step blast yesterday and LOVED it! i had to modify but it was a great workout. i did push and...

I just got my DVDs today!!!! I can't wait 'til I get home. (i had mine shipped to my office) Trina

Melissa, I have been doing Imax 1 & 2 with serious modifications. I can't remember the exact blast moves, but I just don't do alot of the turns(up & back and ricochet moves) and no plyos. Instead, I normally substitute knee repeaters and side squats. I am 15 1/2 wks and haven't had any...

I thought I would join this thread because I finally can workout consistently now that I am in my 2nd trimester. I had a great week. I am currently doing the November rotation now that i have a lot more energy than I did 3 weeks ago. This is my second pregnancy and I don't remember being so...

I am currently doing the November Rotation and LOVE IT. When Cathe first posted it, I thought to myself that I wasn't going to like it. I was about to do another rotation instead. Now I am very glad that I am doing it. This rotation has everything, so much variety. Since I'm pregnant, I've...

Hi ladies, It has been tough for me to get all my workouts in too. Before I got pregnant, I was working out 6 days a week. The last month or so I've been lucky if I got in 4 or 5. But last week I was able to do all six. I am so happy! Sara, I am 11 weeks today. Like you this is my...

Melanie, SIX Mt. Dews a DAY!!! Wow, you are amazing. I stopped drinking reg. sodas a couple of years ago (I drink one maybe once every 3 months). Now I drink diet sodas (1 maybe 2 a day). Your diet sounds a lot like mine, maybe a little better. Before I became pregnant, I ate veggies...

Hi ladies, I have been reading your posts and decided that I would introduce myself. My name is Trina and I am 10 weeks today (EDD 5/11/04). I am excited about my pregnancy, but I have been extremely tired. The exhaustion is worse than morning sickness. My scheduled workout for this week...

I've been wondering the same thing. I am due May 11 and am anxious about the new series. I agree that we should be able to use parts of the BB series. I told my husband about how I preordered the DVDs and how I was anxious to do the workouts. He said to me if they are anything like the DVDs...

I live in eastern NC about 1 1/2 away from the coast and we are a little frantic around here. I guess b/c of Hurricane Floyd a few years ago flooded about half of the county and we were stranded for days. Not to mention, we didn't have electricity for a few days. My husband went out and...

RE: Congratulations Maggie!!! I am new to this board but: Congratulations Maggie. I'm only 5 weeks with my second. My 4 yr old was born on 9-9-99. So our kids now have something in common! Tpridgen Due 5/12/03

I am around 150 lbs. The last time I did MIC I burned 742 calories according to my HRM, Cardio Kicks: 494, Circuit Max:649. I have a Polar HRM and sometimes my HR goes as high as 191 while doing some Cathe's. Unless you are doing alot of modifications, you are burning mega calories!

I agree that MIC is Cathe's toughest workout. I also dread this workout. I've had MIC in my monthly rotation and has swapped it with another workout at the last minute twice. I have it scheduled for tomorrow. But this time I am determined to do it! All of it!

Hi Ladies, I just found out over the weekend that I was pregnant. How soon did you begin modifying your Cathe workouts. Because I haven't seen my doctor (took HPT) I didn't want to work at the usual high intensity that I normally do so I decided to lower the intensity until I go to my...

Congratulations!!!! What is Hypnobirthing? I just found out I was pregnant this weekend so I don't have a clue what that is.
