Hi, Cathe! No questions. Just want to say you have changed my life and I can't wait for the new series! Thank you, love you, bye! Oh, and have a great weekend!

Hi, Laura, Paul Katami is really good, highly recommended and I have several of his DVDs (Kettlebell Kombos, Burn & Build, an Kettlebell Drills). He offers a lot of variety, emphasizes form, and offers a clinic on his DVDs to demonstrate how to do the exercise properly, which is so...

Hi, Ashley, I am doing my 3rd round of STS currently (just finished MESO Cycle #2 last week) and at the beginning of November I decided to add LIS to my regular STS rotation. In other words, wherever Cathe indicated an STS workout, I just inserted the STS disc I was already scheduled to do...

Have you tried burpees with the sliding discs? Cathe does them this way on the Slide and Glide disc DVD, but without the sliding discs on the Step Challenge DVD. I find that without the sliding discs the move is too jarring on my back as I have some spine issues. You can go into the burpee...

Please, please, please more spin DVDs. I have been spinning for years on my own spinner at home with my own playlist on the ipod. But it is much more motivating to do this with a "class" and I was so excited when Cathe announced she was producing a spin DVD that I almost "peed my pants" as the...

Cathe, I'm surprised you don't realize this yet: If you build it, they will come!! I would definitely buy a download and take it with me to the gym.

I was wondering if a list of all Cathe's DVD abbreviations is posted somewhere. I can usually figure them out, but once in awhile I get stumped (today it was trying to figure out that MIS was Maximum Intensity Strength). I ended up going through all the DVDs until I found the right one...

It is my understanding Cathe will be selling gliding discs sometime in the near future. If you don't want to wait, I bought my discs at http://www.power-systems.com/p-4117-gliding-discs.aspx. You can get them for either the carpet or hardwood floors and they cost me $14.95 for a pair. I have...

That would be great. That is, if anyone's left alive to tell the tale (of the tail) after this whopper of a rotation. HA!!!!

OK, so I just bought all the DVDs for this rotation that I didn't already have and got a great deal with the specials currently going on. Since I not only got a 20% discount for ordering 7 DVDs, but also got 30% off one of them since it is a featured DVD in the Hardcore Series (and of course...

Hi there! I purchased the Spinner Sport Spinning Cycle from WalMart a few months ago for $449.00 ($485 with S and H ). It is the exact bike that is sold on the official Spinning site for $500 (not including S and H), so not much difference in price. But it is an excellent spin bike for the...

Good afternoon, everyone! Did disc 1 yesterday morning and attempted No Equipment Abs last night. YIKES! Hope you had more luck than I did, jnka825. I have problems with my lower back and neck and it was just not possible for me to keep my legs in the air and support my neck, etc. So I...

Greetings from Northeastern Ohio! My name is Vicki and I am 55 with 2 sons ages 23 and 33 and 4 grandchildren. My oldest son and his family live in China and my youngest is in the Army and currently lives in Alaska until he heads out in March for his 2nd tour in Afghanistan. This will be...

Here is what Cathe says on her FAQs re. STS: Why does STS have two Active Recovery weeks and what does this mean? There are two one week active recovery weeks allotted during STS. The first "rest" week will occur at the end of week four which is the end of Mesocycle #1 (muscle endurance)...

Oh gosh, my bad! You absolutely DO use the tower in Meso #3. DUH!! It's needed especially then because the weights are much heavier and is used to hold your weight bar, especially necessary for those chest presses. My infant grandson has been visiting for the past week with Daddy only, so...
