Her best premixes took place when there were two workouts on one dvd. However, that way you sometimes had to buy workouts you didn't like to get one you did. They also tended to freeze because they were multilayered.
I'd like to see Lorraine again, but I understand that they have their own lives to live and can't be in every workout. Amanda and Marlo are good additions.

Besides the music, I miss the chaptering & the premixes. The premixes she's putting out these days are not premixes in my opinion. I'm not sure what to call them--the really lazy person's shortcuts? I actually don't mind waiting longer for a better quality workout dvd--with great music, chaptering, & premixes, but I'm guessing those days are gone.

I miss her good music. She used to use really fun music. It has become a little better but her older workouts definetly had better music.
I miss the mix and match option. I did gym style legs this morning and love how it goes back to the main menu each time. And creative premixes. I also miss Lorraine and Deazie was a nice addition. What I don't miss is the men from STS. I found them to be annoying. Especially the guy with the baby weights. My purse weighs more then he lifted at times. But what I love is her live classes. They are so much fun. And Cathe shines.

I like having all the 'original' gang in the videos. (I had a late start to Cathe, so to me the original gang is Cedie, Brenda, Lorraine and Jai. I like the other backgrounders too - no offense! Amanda is a great addition - such great form - and those abs! ) I especially miss Cedie when she's gone. I miss the good music too. I don't hate the sound-alikes as much as many people, but the music has been hit-or-miss for me. I have always wished Cathe would include outtakes. She's always so perfect, it would be fun to see her more 'human' side. (We get a taste of that with the Live classes.)

When I really got into Cathe the backgrounders were Cedie, Lorraine, Jai and Brenda. I just really want those 4 in my Cathe workouts - no one else. Everyone else seem nice and everything but I still don't want them in there. I suppose I'll have to get over it.
Premixes aren't as clever - really disappointed in that step tape they put together. They were offering it with the last pre sale and it was the most unimaginative mix ever. I never got it because based on what I heard it was whole workouts stuck together. Why would I want that? I could make that myself. I miss dancey cardio - hard choreography - but it seems all her cardio now is athletic with easy moves and so high impact. I am thinking now that we have both changed and I need to break up with her.
