I've been doing my workouts after work for probably 5+ years, and it works well for me. I know if I came home, relaxed, had dinner, etc., and then tried to muster up motivation, it wouldn't happen. I think for me now, it's become such a part of my daily routine, that I don't have a problem...

RE: Weekends are for Fun! Hey Carmelle :) I thought of that theory myself initially as well. However, after a lot of thought, I realized that I just don't crave that kind of stuff during the week. I really think it's induced by the appetite surge that comes after a cocktail or two. I read...

Me too!! I'd *LOVE* to be able to use the CTX upper body weight sections on their own. It's so cumbersome to fast forward 5 tapes to get to each weight section!! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE put them all on one vid! :)

Hey PK :) Well .. as for being a 'beginner', Cathe will definitely get you advanced pretty quick :) I think you'll be quite pleased with the videos you have, and will acquire going forward. You really can't go wrong with any of her workouts. There's such an abundance of knowledge on this...

Hey Everyone :) Haven't posted on this one yet .. so I'm a rookie! Here goes: Monday : Rythmic Step + Abs Tuesday: 5.8 mile run Wednesday: Power Hour Thursday: Mindy's 2K02 + Abs Friday: 5.6 mile run + Leaner Legs Saturday: Interval Max chased w/ the 3 intervals in CTX +...

Jayne .. you're TOO funny :P IMax has been my 'beast' for a long time!! Most times I tackle it .. but I still have moments where I'm foaming at the mouth during those plyo jacks because of the "fire in the thighs" .. :) Modifications or not, I'm still absolutely THRILLED when it's all done...

Hey PK :) Welcome to CATHE-LAND!! I think the videos you chose were great picks. I just recently polished off a 10 week rotation with the Pure Strength series, and am quite happy with the results and strength gains I achieved. Keep in mind, Power Hour is more endurance oriented, and while...

Hey All! I wanted to share a discovery that I thought might help. I've noticed when I've attempted IM during the week at my normal workout time (after work, around 4:30pm) that I struggle with it more. If I do it on a Saturday or Sunday morning however, after about two cups of coffee first...

Hey All - Well .. I did just fine throughout the week, but my battles come on weekends. If I'm out having drinks with friends, it sets off my cravings and appetite, and I end up overeating big time. My world has become a perpetual cycle of clean eating during the week, and munch-fests on the...

Welcome to Cathe-land Ladies!! :-jumpy I've been hooked on Cathe for roughly 8 years, and she's still the one I turn to for a kick-butt, truly fun workout!! Rythmic Step .. while a bit tricky in spots, is a total BLAST!! Preview first ... then just GO FOR IT!! I just started on a Power...

What a HILARIOUS thread!!! :-gloat Okay ... here's what I'm *neurotic* about : :) I too *highly* encourage friends and family to order anything that comes with french fries .. so I can graze :) I MUST eat dinner each night during the 6pm Friends re-run. If it's a day when it's not on...

RE: Thanks again, Donna! Thanks Donna! :) Gee ... here I was thinking I could get off cheap and just get one for now!! :\ Is PowerStrike and CK Sales the only place that sells those vids? I've been looking all over to find a slightly less expensive price tag .. but no luck thus far. Thanks...

RE: Thanks again, Donna! I was thinking about ordering PowerStrike, but am unsure as to what vid to get. I love intensity, combinations, and prefer a nice balance of kicking and punching. What's the difference between the Millenium 1 and 2 videos with regard to the moves, choreography...

Hang in there Donna!! :) When I first started IMax, I too had to modify (and I weigh 110lbs) all of the same intervals you're having too. It's NOT like the rest of her cardio tapes, and requires ALOT more lung capacity and muscle use than just your standard step workout! I found that by...

I can *totally* relate!! My first exposure to "sit and stands" was in PS Legs .. then when I did Leaner Legs for the first time, and found that we were subjected to BOTH sit and stands, and those dreadful "low-ends" I thought for sure I must be nuts for subjecting myself to that!! :) However...

Hi Sharon :) I agree with the other two gals .. I think it really depends on the person. I could do 5 days of hi/lo/step cardio, and the week that I throw in a couple of runs in substitution of that, I end up dropping a half pound or pound .. I think everyone's bod is the entirely different...

Hi Cathe!! :) Thanks for letting us know you're doing so well, and enjoying your family!! I've thought of you often in the last couple of weeks, and am glad to know that you're doing wonderfully!! God Bless!! Nicole

Hi there :) Just wondering, have you tried Interval Max? I know when I was trying to lose weight, my body would often stop responding to my efforts, and after a couple of weeks of throwing in longer cardio workouts, in addition to more intense workouts (i.e: Body Max, MIC, and Interval Max)...

Hi Kathy!! I want to chime in my thanks as well for the time you spent putting together the rotations!! I've got LOTS of work ahead of me now!! ~ Nicole :)
