Laurie- Can I get the worksheets as well? I'll message you with my email address. Thanks!!!

Good Morning Ladies!!! No workout for me this morning...seems like morning is when I have the toughest time with breathing, so I'm pushing my workouts to the evening this week. Not sure what I'll do tonight, maybe some TurboKick. I want to do some Cathe cardio, but just don't think my lungs will tolerate it! Hope you all…

Thanks Girls!!! So, when you do the 1RM, did you just go through the DVD's separately from actually doing the workout to calculate your 1RM, or did you just pick a weight and go with it as you did the DVD and then enter them in at the end? Just curious... Oh, and do I need to purchase that incline piece for my bench, or…

Good Morning Ladies!!!! Well, I've got good news...I won an ebay auction last night for Cathe's STS for $200 for all of the discs, including Abs!!! YEah!!! I was so pumped! So, my question is this, does it come with worksheets to log the weights used/exercises, or do I need to create my own? So pumped to start that and be…

Hey Girls! Hope you had a fantastic weekend...I know I did, but it seemed to go faster than any weekend I can remember in recent history! I managed to get workouts in both Saturday and Sunday, although the cold I had a couple weeks ago has now settled into my chest as a nasty cough, and it's really making it hard to…

I usually log it under cardio and just use my heart rate monitor to get the calories burned and enter that number. That way you get around having to fill in reps.

Yeah it will be Cathe's Gym Style when I get back, along with other DVD's too. I think CE is challenging enough for me, as I keep increasing the weight to challenge myself, but I am spending too much energy focusing on the fact that she doesn't ever complete a set because she's walking around gabbing...and who the heck…

Morning Ladies! It's Friday, and I'm so excited! I am ready for a nice relaxing weekend with the family! This morning was ChaLean Extreme Lean 2 and a little TurboJam. I really like Chalene's workouts, but man, the more I watch and listen to her, the more she drives me nuts! I'm just doing 1 rotation until we leave for our…
-
The abs was good...whe incorporated pushups and then plank hold, push up, plank hold...until I thought I was going to die. Then into side oblique crunches and some other push your leg into the air and lift kinda stuff. I hardly remember as I was wanting it to be over cuz my legs were screamin! I really do like her…
-
Good Morning Ladies! I opted for some additional sleep this morning instead of Cathe's Double Wave! I am still working off the remains of this cold, so figured the sleep is good for me! I probably will get a run in on the treadmill tonight while catching up on my tv shows...maybe Cathe later this week. I did the Tonique…
-
Good Morning Ladies! This morning was ChaLean Burn #1 and I did a pre-mix of the cardio only from the Bootcamp DVD. OMG!!! It was only 19 minutes (about 15 total without the stretching before and after) and I was huffin and puffin. Quite honestly, I find Insanity to be easier than some of Cathe's workouts...not sure why,…
-
Good Morning Ladies!!! I got a 20 minute run in last night and then this morning was Hip Hop Abs. Funny, that used to be my favorite workout, and now I just can't seem to enjoy it. It's a great calorie burner, but just not into it anymore...might be time to put that one up for bid on ebay! Gotta clean out the old to make…
-
I think this is round 3 now of ChaLean. I did one round exclusively and then 1 round where I alternated 1 week on, one week off, and now I'm doing just the strength workouts on M-W-F and then my own cardio the other days. I gotta say, I love the workouts, but I am getting really tired of all the chatter! :yawn: But, we are…
-
Good Morning Ladies!!! Well, I'm back to 100%, thank goodness! Took a rest day Saturday as I just wasn't feeling up to working out. Sunday was a run and some Turbo Jam and this morning was ChaLean Extreme and some Kelly Coffey Meyer Bootcamp! I'm ready to start the day! Hope you all had a fantastic weekend!
-
Good Morning Ladies!!! Happy Friday, SOOOO glad the weekend is almost here. I need some down time to relax and get some sleep! I slept pretty well last night, definitely feeling much better. I've been drinking Emergen-C...I think it's helping! I haven't taken any sort of cold medicine yet today (just some advil for a…
-
Morning Ladies! Well, I didn't sleep well at all, this cold is really giving me a run for my money! So, this morning was just a light walk on the treadmill. I was supposed to do Cathe Core Cardio, but just couldn't find the energy to do it. Maybe I'll try later, but we'll see. Hoping this cold passes quickly! I can handle…
-
Good Morning Ladies! The cold that both my boys have finally got me...it hit like a mack truck overnight...wow, I'm just exhausted! Hardly slept last night, but still got up and did my ChaLean Extreme strength workout. Hopefully later I can get some yoga in, and off early to bed tonight! I have one work meeting for lunch,…
-
Good Morning Ladies!! Whatever I had was a bug of the 24 hour variety, so by mid afternoon yesterday I was feeling good enough to crank out some ChaLean Extreme and Turbo Jam. Felt good! I had to stuff my face all morning though to get my energy back up from not being able to keep food down on Sunday, but it all worked…
-
Well, no workout for me this morning...fighting a stomach bug that started yesterday. Hopefully will feel up to a workout tonight...so far so good today with the food! :indifferent: Laurie-Great job on the Insanity workouts! I have tried Imax 2, I think! :blushing: I'm trying to keep them all straight! I'm thinking about…
-
Well, I didn't win the ebay auction for STS, so I'll just have to keep looking. I REALLY want to get STS, but having a hard time with the $300 price tag when I'm not 100% sure on it yet. Maybe in a few weeks I'll be ready to splurge on it! This morning was Cardio & Weights...that's a great one, but man does she move fast…
-
Good Morning!!! Well, today was another Insanity workout...Plyo. I gotta say, it's tough, but not nearly as bad as i thought it would be. I was terrified to do this workout this morning, and was definitely glad when it was done, but pleased. I can see where doing just this workout for 60 days, would make any other workout…
-
Thanks Tami! Just what I needed to hear! I'm going to keep an eye out for a deal on it (if there's such a thing!), as I think it's what I need! I decided sleeping in was more important this morning than working out...I'll have to get my workout in later today. Doesn't happen too often that I'm too tired to get outta bed,…

Ok Ladies- I need some input from you!! You all know I LOVE Cathe's workouts, but am still new to them. I have been doing ChaLean Extreme/Power 90 for the last 6 months. I thought one of you (Tami?) has done ChaLean Extreme and also Cathe's STS rotation. What I'm trying to determine is if the STS rotation is going to be…

Good Morning Ladies! Sorry I've been MIA for a few days! I'm still here, just not logging my foods in MFP anymore (was getting a little too obsessed with the numbers!), so I'm not on as many times a day as I used to be! I did Cathe's Kick, Punch and Crunch yesterday...OMG! I had to stop 3 different times as I couldn't get…
-
I don't really have a favorite...yet. I'm still trying to learn to "like" yoga. I make myself do it, although it takes quite a bit for me to get myself to actually do it. Right now, I have Power Half Hour Stretch by Tony Horton, a couple ChaLEAN Extreme Yoga workouts and several Yoga/Pilates DVD's by Ellen Barrett. I like…
-
Good Morning!!! Today was Jari Love's Ripped 1000...whoa, that was a fun one! I like it!! Still sore from CE on Monday a bit, so it was tough, but I worked through it. Gotta get some Yoga in tonight so I can loosen up my muscles! Laurie--Hope you survived the snow...we just got done with it yesterday...I think we got 10…

Good Morning Everyone!! So glad to see so many join this thread! Fun to see new faces and old! Well, this morning I decided to try out Insanity...did the fit test and really was impressed with my results. I'll be mixing Insanity in 1 time per week, CE 2 times per week, Turbo in 1 time per week, and various other DVD's…
-
Good Morning Ladies!!!! Well, I bit the bullet and took the Insanity Fit Test this morning. Honestly, I was terrified as I didn't know what to expect. It wasn't that bad, and I did the same or better than the girl on the video doing the fit test, so I was pleased. I would say it's a lot like Cathe's Hiit, but you go for a…

I LOVE ChaLEAN Extreme, as I really enjoy weight lifting. Her whole program is about lifting heavy to burn fat and firm up muscles. If you don't enjoy weight lifting, it might take a little time to get adjusted to it, but the results are amazing!
