I really like your recommendations, Suzanne. I totally agree with the suggestion for a new tough/heavy weight series, and I also like S&H. If I had one suggestion, could it be made in two parts instead of three? Although I love S&H, it's harder to work it into my rotation because it's broken...

LAST EDITED ON Sep-03-01 AT 01:21AM (Est)[p]I have migraines, and from time to time, they take on a "cluster headache" pattern. I took the Prednisone taper once when I'd had a migraine daily for at least two weeks, and it did break the cycle. I don't like taking Prednisone, and I really felt...

I consider myself to be among the world-class choreographically challenged - seriously. I tried Rhythmic Step over the week-end, after previewing it once, and I made it almost all the way through the second section before I decided to hang it up for the day. If I can do this - you can definitely...

Kathryn - loved the reference to S&M video!! Cathe definitely had a few "evil smiles" waiting for us with this one! }> When I did my weekly check in w/my group, my comment was that I didn't think that I could have done one more lunge!! I remember staring at the TV screen in total agony thinking...

I received my e-mail confirmation that my DVD's shipped today - hooray!!! Yippeee!!! Can you tell that I'm just a little excited??!!???

Hooray! I've been dying to do Power Hour - all the reviews have made me nuts with anticipation. I'm ready for the "I want them all, by golly" package to arrive! I'm out of town on business Tuesday and Wednesday - I can see myself watching DVD's into the wee hours of the morning when I return!

Keta You will definitely "feel abs that you never knew existed" after you do a good Pilates work-out. But it's the good burn that we all live for! :) I need to get more Pilates back into my rotation - and once I receive my "I want them all" package of Cathe DVD's, I'll probably be in such a...

RE: Thanks Cyana Let me know how you like Core Conditioning. I don't think that I've seen that in the stores around here.

LAST EDITED ON Aug-13-01 AT 08:17PM (Est)[p]LAST EDITED ON Aug-12-01 AT 07:41 PM (Est) Hi Keta - If you're looking to try Pilates, I'd recommend the Method's Precision Toning. You can typically find this tape for $6.99 at Target. It has a beginner-intro work-out, followed by a longer one...

Hi Joy - I love my DVD player and I don't even have one of the multi-disc machines. And trust me - you've got company, I had the old credit card out in a nanosecond and pre-ordered the whole whopping big package on DVD. PS is great on DVD and I can't wait to get the rest!

RE: Ginger Ale from BELIZE I squeezed a whole lime into one glass, and stirred in about a spoonful of splenda. I had mine pretty spicy last night and it definitely left a warm feeling in the old gut! If I come across any information that gives quantities of ginger to use as a metabolic...

RE: Ginger Ale from BELIZE cinza - I made your ginger ale! I did like you, and made a concentrate with the fresh ginger root. I'm working on refining the proportions of the ingredients when I'm mixing up a glass, but it was a nice change from the usual ten tons of plain water that I drink every...

RE: Agree... Tricia - from the "old" Method series, I only have the "All in One" work-out. Lakey does the warm-up, Alexandra does the aerobic/weight section, and Jennifer ends with the pilates work. I've rented Precision Toning from the library. The pilates work from these two tapes is...

RE: Hardcore Ginger Fans Try this. cinza - ginger AND lime - two of my absolute favorite things! Some years ago I went to a restaurant that uses lime instead of lemon with their iced tea and I was hooked. Limes in the Corona (OK, I haven't done that one in a while :D , learned that in Cozumel)...

Jane - I share your fantasy! As someone who has to choose their work-out on the basis of how the knees are feeling on any given day, I'd LOVE to see Cathe do an advanced low-impact tape. And considering that I typically work out at 5:30AM, my creativity levels aren't at their highest, as you...
