Oh! I'm so glad I'm not alone! I've decided to only work on the warm up and 1st segment until those are flowing then move on to the rest! I have very little room to work so the turning and around the board don't work for me either.....at least that's what I tell myself! ;) I'm so uncoordinated...

I've just taken a week off and I feel huge! :-( After reading some of the threads on overtraining,etc and how some people lost weight after a rest week, I was hoping I would fit that category! Obviously not! Ugh! I must confess my clean eating has also taken a week off so that may be part of...

LAST EDITED ON Jul-26-01 AT 08:40AM (Est)[p]Hi Stacy! I guess I'm not sure what you're trying to avoid in the way of comments. I can't remember hearing anything inappropriate about the young man in the wheelchair. He is so inspiring! But to answer your other questions... Volume 5 has the most...

HI! I am a Tae Bo junkie! I have all the basics, advanced, and the new Get Ripped series. I have never experienced an injury. Form is crucial. If there are moves which I can't complete in good form at Billy's speed, I just slow them down and do them at a pace I can manage. If you're new to Tae...

RE: Under bra bulge Kathryn~ Thank you for all the great tips! A good friend of mine added some pointers about form with one arm lat rows. Wow! What a difference focusing on form makes (duh!) I will definitely add in some pull overs. I'm so happy that there will be some in the new videos. You...

Happy Birthday Cathe! I hope you had a marvelous weekend with your family! And thank you so much for the gift you've given me....health and fitness as a lifestyle! :-) Becky

LAST EDITED ON Jul-18-01 AT 08:25AM (Est)[p] I use a product called *Grand Flex* topical lotion. It contains MSM, glucosamine, capsaicin, and turmeric. It really works well and doesn't have that strong odor associated with many rubs. (ie. Ben Gay, Icy Hot) I buy it at the tack store. It is...

Hi Cathe! Thanks so much for the congratulations! It's been a long road to lose this weight and I definitely credit you and your videos with helping me get there! :-) Thank you also for continuing to challenge us by providing new videos to keep us motivated! I can't wait for the new ones to...

Hi Cathe or any of you other fitness experts! :-) I was doing Pure Strength ~ Back,Biceps and Abs yesterday and was quite happy with the condition of my biceps but was horrified by the bulge emerging from under my arm/above my bust. So my question is, is that a body fat or muscle issue? I've...

I don't have any personal experience with these supplements, but I know a LOT of people who do take them with great results. Also, nearly everyone at the barn our pony boards at uses them for their horses. Some of the results have been dramatic. I have heard it takes up to 6 months of...

Oops! I'd forgotten this thread! Well, first off, after a few days with the Schiff's I decided it was dumb to take something that was limited to a 14 day cycle, so I returned it to GNC and brought home a bottle of Hydroxycut. I am taking a much smaller dose than recommended, max 3-4 pills a day...

Good questions! First off, yes I was very aware of my food/calorie intake and admit it was too much. Even if I did great all week, I was usually blowing it on the weekend. Amazingly enough, 2 bad days can sabotage 5 good ones! :( However since early May, along with the HC I've gotten much more...

Hi Laura! I've been debating whether or not to respond to this thread because of all the negative response you've gotten. Finally I decided that I should just go ahead and share my experience to give you as much info as possible while making your decision. First off, I want to state that I...

I'm a SAHM of 4. We also are a homeschooling family.

Nikki, I'm not Cathe, but it's taken me almost a year to figure out a rotation which gives me results. Finally in the past month both the scale and tape measure have moved down! I wanted to add a question to yours though... Cathe, once you figured out what worked and achieved your desired...
