    Latest Update, New Job, etc

    I've been super busy and wanted to post an update as to what's been going on. First of all, after my husband reached out to a bankruptcy attorney, he was advised that if the only reason he was filing was to buy extra time in the house, that was not a smart idea. The attorney did however talk...

    I was hoping to come back here and report good news about my interview this morning except the unbelievable happened. Despite having a confirmed phone interview slot with a Mr. Lopez at 10:22 AM this morning, I was stood up by the interviewer. He never called me. I had everything prepared -...

And to Debinimi, I did get make contact with SeaShell and now I have the LMR bundle but I've yet to try any workouts. I'm now 12 weeks post op this week, the scar on my...

    Surgery update!

    I’m writing this from my hospital bed. My surgery yesterday was successful and it was a benign cystadenoma on my left ovary. It’s been under surveillance for 5 years but didn’t have a true diagnosis until after surgery. I’m now looking at a 6-8 week recovery and thankfully I’m not in pain but...

    Salsa dance workout

    I’d love to see Cathe do her own spin on a Zumba/Salsa dance type workout. I was listening to the Ray Barretto song “Do You Dig It?” and was thinking about dance like nobody’s watching choreography. Keep it relatively simple and have some good salsa sound alikes. Maybe even throw in some...

    Hurricane Beryl

    Is lashing out with full force on the Houston area. Somehow , miraculously, we haven’t lost power so far and I’m so grateful for that. I didn’t think we were going to get the direct impact of this thing. I was thinking today was just going to be rain and I was ready to kick back into job...

    Rev'd Up Rumble

    This has quickly become one of my favorite go-to kickboxing workouts. I love the moves, the flow of the moves, the combos aren't super tricky to learn and the lower body blasts are fun too. And so is the Calorie Crush.

    Certified Nursing Assistant Training Update!

    I've been really busy since I started my CNA training at the end of April. I'm absolutely loving it and a lot of what I'm learning has carried over from the short course I took on becoming a Physical Therapy Aide. We have started taking practice questions for the State of Texas exam and out of...

    Job Search Update

    I've been grinding away at my job search and dealing with a lot of stress and frustration. When I did my online training to become a physical therapy aide, there were a lot of available jobs. Now there are the same old tired ones. I got a call back from a screener from Texas Children's for...

    Cardio Core Circuit

    I know there was a discussion about this one a few days ago. I did it this morning and forgot what a great cardio and ab blast this is! I love the music, especially the song that kicks off the 3rd grouping of exercises starting with those air jacks and OMG I forgot about the cool down song. I...

    To The Max

    I did To The Max this morning for the first time in a long time and it’s just a classic and one of my favorites. The music is some of the best and my favorite song is the one that’s in the 30/20 HIIT. It starts shortly after the 3rd grouping of exercises start and the Kelly Clarkson what...

    New DVD slow to load?

    I’m planning my workouts for the week and am previewing Killer Legs. Has anyone else noticed the new discs being slow to load or making weird noises as mine is doing now? My player is making a lot of noise and the disc just froze. I’ve never had problems with any Cathe DVDs. Guess I need to...

    Recovery Week

    I'm currently 3 days into a P.volve recovery week. I did Strong & Sweaty Total Body Giant Sets on Saturday and my foot slipped on the glider while doing those warrior lunges and I felt a tweak in the muscles where the butt and thigh meet. I've had a muscle pull there before from overstretching...

    Lower Body double shot

    I’m getting ready to rotation plan for the week and want to do double lower body. I was thinking Perfect 30 Lower and Boss Loops glutes and core. Would there be any reason these two could be done in the same week? One is heavy weights and the other is loops with some body weight and cardio...
