I have been working out with Cathe for many many years - and will continue, but this particular workout proved to be less than optimal for me. 1. In most other videos, Cathe's cueing is stellar - just a click or two ahead of the movement - I did not find that to be the case with this video. 2. The title should be “Upper Body” Metabolic blast - my shoulders were literally shredded, and not in a good way, from the repetitive upper body movements - only to be further repeated in the floor based portion of the practice. And 3. I was unimpressed with the pyramid pump - two very basic back exercises although it was a good decision to put the BACK pyramid pump on this DVD to counter all the forward/shoulder movements. Honestly, I would return it for a refund if it was possible.
Got the video in good time! Thanks Cathe.com!!
Great customer service and fast shipping.
I had a good experience coming back to Cathe.com after an extended (~15 year?) absence (severe osteoarthritis in both knees forced a radical change in my workout habits). After several years of stationary bike and elliptical work, with some Cathe Strech Max and Low Impact series workouts (the only DVDs I kept after my knees blew up), I decided to see if Cathe had any new knee-friendly workouts. The site has changed a little (for example, I was unable to find the behind-the-scenes production photos/videos I enjoyed in the past), but I still found it easy to navigate. After reading through the descriptions of the various available workouts and reading user reviews, I decided to try LiTe Body Weight and Bands and ICE Metabolic Total Body. The ordering process was just as easy and flawless as I remembered, the DVDs arrived promptly and in good condition, and I am really enjoying incorporating these videos into my routine. These workouts are refreshing my nearly 60-year-old body, and my knees aren't complaining. I am so glad to be back!
I've done two DVD's from my collection, and really like the content and information provided on the muscle groups and activity of them. I have purchased Cathe's DVD's in the past and really like her style. I also appreciated the packaging of the dvd's so that they are not damaged during delivery.
Have bought DVDS FROM Cathe dot Com for years. The service is good and looking forward to using the new DVDS, hopefully soon.
Excellent service in a timely manner. Love to work with Cathe dot Com
Always a pleasure!
Love Cathe.com because her workouts are awesone; customer service is the best and website is full of fitness information that is honest, reliable and not boring.
Recently purchased OnDemand access, it was too confusing to try to coordinate my training plan. I prefer my DVDs & downloads. I love Cathe’s weight training, boxing & HIIT, however I’m just the step portions are too complex for me. I prefer other forms of cardio.
The two workouts: Cardio Slam and Metabolic Blast are so much fun and easy to follow :)!! Cathe always does a great job!!
Always a wonderful, energetic and professional experience! Loving what I see in the workouts so far!!
Awesome customer service.
would love to view clips of the DVDs before i buy ..like i used to at collage video... but i know it will all be good ... because i love Cathe.. also wish that when i ask a question(email) that it would be answer in a a more personal way.. rather than generic thank you!
Previously l have been able to track Cathe orders all the way.cathe lite dvds are a different story staff advised it won't track until it reaches australia..why can l always track My other orders..???So much for pre order other Aussies are able to track lite dvd all the way..not happy to outlay this money and no idea where parcel is and be advised it can take 30 days.l purchased due to the usual excellent tracking info and fast shipping from cathe..wondering if you the DVDs were sent!
Quick, friendly easy shopping experience.
I love your new, recent DVDs. I enjoy them so much. I always look forward to receiving your new workout DVDs. Thank you for providing fun workouts that I can do at home.
Beth work outs ever!!!!
Loved it. So excited to have the products directly on my computer and to not have to use cd's or dvd's anymore. Played it, exercised to it. Thank you so much!
:)
A little frustrating when one of my LITE dvds wouldn't play. I feel like I am a great customer since I have pretty much all of Cathe's systems. I felt like I wasn't believed that the dvd wouldn't work. It isn't like I return everything or cause any issues so I found that a little frustrating. I don't feel I should have issues with a brand new dvd out of the box, especially since all the other dvds worked properly and the replacement works. I still love Cathe and am sure I will continue to order Cathe's programs.
Excellent response.
I received the purchase in a timely manner.
Always keeps deliveries updated . Love Cathe's DVDs. Always keeps me motivated and in shape. Just wish there were more step workouts!!!
One of the DVDs does not work !
The best
Wish Cathe would count more when doing exercises.
I simply love the workouts in fact my arms and shoulders are feeling that upper workout...
I ordered my dvds and received the order I. Less than a week. I’m based in England so such a quick turnaround is really impressive.
Cathe produces top notch workouts at a great price. I own most everything she has produced and I love her workouts. I appreciate the quality of the discs and downloads, as well as their superb customer service. Thank you!
Excellent workouts and excellent customer service.
I've purchased Cathe's box sets for a few years now, and the content is always excellent. My only minor issue is that the case the dvd's came in wasn't protected w/bubble wrap and it broke in transit. the shipping employees are notorious for this stuff. Other than that I'm very pleased.
Quick and easy. Recieved cd's ahead of schedule. Only problem I notice is that on some tracts, the video and audio not in sinc.
Cathe and her team are the best!!
Everything was delivered as promised.
I have yet to receive my digital download for Lite. Other than this all was good.
Very good and package was delivered as promised.
As always, great customer service and great products. Loved the new series.
I ordered my first series from Cathe and I can’t wait to do all the workouts, so far I have only been able to try one. This isn’t my first purchase from Cathe, I have many other workouts from the last 15 years, Body Blast series and individual dvds for variety and still do them faithfully every week. I have also worked out to her videos on cable for many years, she’s a hero! I also enjoy her weekly emails with great dietary tips and health information, I am also very health conscious, and cancer survivor. She has helped me in many ways. Thank you, Cathe
I have to say I love Cathe’s workouts. This review is regarding her customer service. I cannot tell you how impressed I was! I accidentally ordered 2 of the new workout bundles. Nancy from customer service sent me an email to make sure I wanted 2, (which I didn’t!). I had heard stories about her and let me tell you they are all true! So nice, so helpful , and she spent time just talking with me! I was really overwhelmed that she took the time to verify my order and was concerned. I am very grateful! Thank you!
Excellent product as always
I was part of Preorder group for LITE before it was even made. It was a long wait but I knew that. It is another amazing DVD series.
I had to pay $23.84 in customs fees... I will NEVER buy from you again. And besides it's the second time that it happens. I buy pre-sale to have a good price and I have to pay customs each time... NEVER AGAIN.
5 Star very easy. Only request is that the gift certificate could be used for either dvd purchase or streaming.
I have been a Cathe fan since she first started. I will continue to buy her CD's and have always had a great experience with shopping for her workouts. She is and will always be my favorite workout instructor.
Great service from the team but I do f8nd it frustrating that when I’ve bought a download if I need to download after 120 hours I have to co tact the team for a new link. However if I am sent the link when I request it then I guess it’s ok. Would prefer the link to last forever as with other workout downloads I’ve purchased.
I had a problem with a defective DVD but a replacement was quickly sent.
Cathe and cathe.com have always been top-notch. The workouts are excellent and worth the cost. Offering pre-sale prices is a wonderful way to keep customers coming back as well. Thank you all for all that you do to provide us with continuous great workouts and great service.
It was great ordering the LITE series directly from Cathe!
Easy to use site and loved the description detail and the clips of the videos. Great job!
Preordering these excellent programs is always easy. There are plenty of notices concerning production progress, readiness, and the shipping is always amazingly prompt.
Fast shipping, reliable as always.
The only complaint, you show qualifies for free shipping & I have never received free shipping.
I have been a "Cathe Client" since the late 1980's and own all of her workouts. However, this brand new latest set of workouts is her BEST EVER!!! I love them and honestly Cathe, I really am grateful for the wonderful work that you do. Kind Regards, Dianne Tam, Australia
I've been ordering products from you for years, first when living in London, UK and now in Brisbane, Australia. I appreciate Cathe and her upbeat presentation, the wide variety of workouts, the receipt of workout DVDs within two weeks of release (when I've pre-ordered)
Cathe's workouts are awesome, and her new ones are wonderful. Low impact but fairly tough. I think the weight workouts in the new LITE series may end up being among my favorites.
All of Cathe's videos are wonderful. She is basically my only instructor now and I'm okay with that! There are so many workouts to choose from and her attitude and spirit always make me feel happy!!! Thanks, Cathe!
Purchase was easy. That digital download instructions for my product easy to follow. I am really enjoying the new workout series! Thank you!
As always, excellent and quick delivery. I’m a longtime Canadian customer and I’ve never had a bad experience with Cathe.com. Thank you for your continued commitment to excellent customer service! Can’t wait to try all my new DVDs!
I have not yet received my order That was the calendar I have not yet received the LITE DVDs that I pre ordered. My mistake I intended to get the DVDs sorry for the inconvience
Shopping at Cathe dot Com is such a snap. It's so quick and easy. I can find any workout I'm looking for and "boom" I can get it in my cart and shop more if I want to or just do a fast checkout. I love the tremendous variety she offers and the great deals. Cathe has the highest quality workouts on the market and she's worth every penny. My husband and I just adore getting fit and mixing up our routines with Cathe's vast catalog of gems. Thank you so much Cathe for making this possible! We love you and your team!
I love these videos I have purchased so much....they challange me and make me want to try harder!!!
Great workouts - not so great music. Would love to hear some actual music instead of the background beats. takes away from the fun of the workout.
Preordered my DVDs and they arrived when promised!
Unfortunately, the code I received in my order didn't work and I had to contact customer service for a new one in order to download my videos. I also find the limited time frame and number of clicks to download to be a terrible system! Most other online/digital workouts that I buy are available from an account where I can stream them or download at any time. It is a much better system both from an ease-of-use perspective and security (I will never lose my videos). I find it frustrating that I don't have an online account with Cathe where I can see my past purchases. I've purchased a lot of digital videos and had trouble downloading them (for various reasons) each time. I don't plan to buy anymore because the system is so poor. It is too much money to spend with a high risk of losing my videos and limited access to them (as I can't stream them online and they must be downloaded to my device).
Love Cathe! I've been working out with her for 15+ years and while the new series is lite and I have to pump up the weight volume at times, the low impact series is great for self-modifying and easy on the feet if I'm having a low energy day.
Fantastic service, thank you!
Love, love, love Cathe!
It was a easy to order the discs I wanted!! High quality discs.
Awesome Issue resolved quickly
The DVDs are worth the wait. I’m a little disappointed in the packaging. I thought the DVDs would have their own individual casing. Other than that I am happy with my purchase and it’s content.
Love Cathe workouts! These are keepers. I like the abundance of premixes. Had the workouts in about 4 days after shipping. Took that long because of the weekend.
Cathe never disappoints!!!
Excellent and fast.
As usual, shipping was fast and I received my package in perfect condition.
Quick ordering & really fast shipping! Got them today & already did one of the workouts! Cathe NEVER fails to make you sweat!
The shopping experience was fine, but I still have not received my order.
Cathe is the best!
shopping with cathe.com is always great. I haven't received my videos yet and I'm becoming a little concerned. Have they shipped? Joetta Thompson
Cathe's products are always top quality!
Cathe never disappoints. I especially appreciate that her warmups and cooldowns are the real deal and perfect for her challenging workouts.

Cathe is the greatest instructor in workout videos of all time. Love the LITE series. I haven’t exercised for awhile and am getting back into it with this series. I have about 90% of her DVD’s and she is awesome at motivating me to get with it.
I have always had great experiences with purchasing from Cathe.com. The shipping is quick and packaging is spot on.
Excellent customer service. Received items well before I expected them.
Great ! I’ve been doing at home workouts with Cathe for years !! I love the lite workouts I just got !
I've only just received my Lite DVD's so can't pass comment on them all but the one I have had time to do is brilliant. Love it!
I signed up for Cathe on Demand and I love it!!
I love all of Cathe’s DVD’s! I usually purchase from College Video but, I wanted to pre-order this new series immediately. It’s Fantastic! Now I know Cathe’s website has the BEST prices! Will be ordering direct from now on. Thanks Cathe for another fabulous series!
Love the new LITE workouts. I am an advanced exerciser, but am able to adjust the weights I need to on these videos to make it a challenge. Its fun and a change in routine. The pyramid bonus workout is a great one, too. I recommend adding it in when you purchase.
I ordered the new Lite series. I luv it!! My dvds were scratched. I got a new set within days. They were still a lil scratched and one dvd skipped 3 times. It did continue playing though. It’s ok because they responded quickly and even though the new set is still scratched, I can live with it. For the price of the series I just expected DVDs that We’re not scratched. But I’m still a fan!
No issues. Enjoying the DVDs so far!
Great, thanks!
Any problems I had were from the Canadian side. Although it arrived at Customs on January 15th, it took until the 23rd to arrive here. It cost me $25.32 in GST/HST (goods and services tax). This is the first time I've had this happen. Bummer!!
I pre-ordered the Lite series and received it shortly after it was released. I can't wait to try them out!
I've been working out and purchasing DVD's from Cathe since about 2002! Cathe's products are always outstanding.
Ordering is easy, however with so many options I have to read very carefully to make sure I'm choosing the option I want.
Great
Very efficient awesome customer services
