Last night an SNM person posted that it was "almost done". Hope it is available later today.

From Cathe's weekly newletter today:

Happy New Year Everyone! Since so many of you ordered the Fit Split workouts I thought I would do a solid Fit Split rotation this month. If you don’t have the Fit Split series, please enjoy one of my past rotations. We hope to have the Fit Split rotation in the user’s guide with links later this week, but we have already posted this rotation on our website in the rotations section of our Blog for you to use.

Fit Split is also now available on Cathe OnDemand, Roku as well as Fire TV and Apple TV and all of our other apps. We're currently putting the finishing touches on the Fit Split User's Guide and will post it shortly. We have also loaded most of the Fit Split information into the Workout Manager, but still have some bugs to work out regarding the rotations. [bolding mine]

Thanks adawn. I'm going to take a look at the rotation, although I'm in round 2 of doing the workouts using my own, random rotation. I'm sure there have been delays due to the storm and people having other things to deal with. I know that we haven't gotten mail since last Wednesday and found the last 5 days of newspapers in our driveway this morning.

I hope you'll enjoy it!

I've now done three out of four discs in their entirety, and have decided I love this weight work more than I've loved any weight I've bought in years. Hate the cardio, so the real shame is that she doesn't make any circuit premixes, because I could have dealt with it in that format. But she didn't have to, because I can't keep one without the other.

I don’t think that will happen though.

Sadly, I can no longer do her cardio because it’s too hard on my joints. Her strength offerings are too fast paced for me to use heavier weights and I’m not of fan of making them complicated with combining weights with bands, the ball as a weight bench, etc. I realize a lot of people love that so there is a market for it. Viva la difference. Thankfully, I can do paper workouts.

Probably her and everyone. I'll probably be moving in the next five years, and, maybe then I can set something up that accommodates streaming, but right now, I have a dedicated set up with an old 32" TV that works great and can accommodate both VHS (which I still use) and DVD. If I want streaming workouts, I have to use my phone or my husband's iPad and it's not nearly as satisfying. I know it's behind the times, but it's what I got.

I'm right with you on using dvd and vhs player. I don't have a cell phone, ipad etc. to stream from. I'm to unfocused to read up on the best way to stream tv & Cathes workouts.

I have compatible TVs in other areas of the house, but a big tube TV in my workout space that I can't see getting rid of when I have so many VHS and DVD workouts.
