    New workout premixes

    I know I'm probably in the minority here, but I would truly appreciate some shorter premix options. By shorter, I mean 30 minutes total. I love Cathe and I love to workout, but my commute recently went from 5 minutes to one hour(each way)+ working 9 hours + being a full time mom. I would love...

    ebay

    I did a seller search and nothing came up. The name isn't at all familiar to me and I buy on ebay a lot--not DVD's anymore, but other stuff. DVD's from ebay are just too much of a crapshoot. And the price difference usually isn't enough to risk.

    Please recommend some plain old ....

    I got the Kathy Smith Project You series and really like the floor aerobics. They can be high or low depending on how you feel. She has someone doing all the modifications. The downside is they are 30-40 minutes. My favorite is called Long Lean and it's 40 minutes of mixed impact. You can...

    where do you get workout clothes?

    Honestly, I love the Fruit of the Loom sports bras at Walmart--there's 3 to a pack for about 9.99. Of course, I'm not blessed with a lot of boobage, so they work great for me--I only have to wash this tiny little slingshot bra and my workout pants/shorts that I usually get at Target or Pamida...

    Your reactions when people say...

    Hmmmmm, good question. I don't believe I am any more or less tolerant of idiotic statements. I never exactly felt "tolerant" of it. I can say that as I get older, I am more comfortable speaking up and opposing those idiotic statements. For example, mother-in-law says "I think you should put...

    Do women compare themselves to other women?

    I wouldn't say I compare myself, but I definitely notice a woman who looks well put-together or especially fit. I will often see a woman and think, "My god, she is gorgeous." Since I've always struggled with my weight, I will also notice overweight women. Usually, my thought is "Look at how...

    Foot issue question

    I have had the same thing for about 3 months now. I've been icing and that has really seemed to help. Also, stretching is very important. And I can't stress enough--REPLACE YOUR SHOES! Every four months or so if you work out regularly. I know it's an expense, but after the pain I've been...

    HOw do you fit your other instructors into your Cathe rotation?

    Currently, I'm on Cathe cool off. I was getting the beginnings of plantar faciitis and needed to lay off the impact. I bought the Project You series by Kathy Smith for a breather and have really seen some good results. I still get my Cathe fix with one tough Cathe workout per week. I have 3...

    How do you use BODY MAX2

    I still split it up--step segment (with bonus) one day, warm up and power circuits the next. I'll add upper body onto either one when I have the time. Sometimes I think this would be the only DVD I'd ever need--upper body, lower body, abs, cardio, intervals....

    HRM Calories burned vs Machine

    Yep, it's the HRM that's the most accurate reading. Sorry.

    What's everyone doing this weekend?

    Tonight, it's Rock Star Supernova (in concert!). Tomorrow, it's sleeping late and then LIC. The whole weekend it's worrying over whether or not I get hired for a job I interviewed for on Wednesday.:P

    Crazy Husband!

    LOL! My husband will mimic me doing the Cathe tapes. The last time he did it, he pulled a muscle...that oughtta teach him! There he was waving his arms around and all of a sudden "OUCH!" I had to laugh.

    Anna Nicole

    Why are people so shocked by this? She was a mess--I don't remember seeing her that she wasn't under the influence of something! The saddest part is a baby girl with no brother and no mom.

    Criminal Minds (last night's show)

    If you look down on the page, we were discussing last night's show.:-)

    Criminal Minds TV show

    :-) I love this show too--I think it's better than any CSI! I knew they were going to do that to Reid, too. I think it's ok. It means he will have a big storyline the rest of the season. I also love Garcia. I saw her in an interview on TV Guide and she said she thought she was just going to...

    Harmful effects of smoking

    Hi there! Obviously not Cathe, but I have been where you are. I quit July 2, 2006 with Nicoderm patches. Let me tell you the differences! 1. I can get through an entire Cathe workout without getting winded or coughing 2. I smell incredibly good (like shampoo and lotion instead of smoke)...

    Hi

    You know, Cathe, if you did an entire step cardio workout with nothing but Prince songs, I would snap that baby up in a hurry! hint hint.:7

    Calories...

    Wow. I did that too and there is no way I could NOT gain weight on that many calories a day. I don't know what to tell you. I net out at about 1200 per day and still have trouble losing. When I eat more, I gain. Good luck!!

    Jessica Simpson Moment! UGH!!

    I used to always burn my popcorn at work--for about 3 straight years. Then one day I noticed the "popcorn" preset on the microwave. I have also run my car out of gas a few times....even though there's nothing wrong with my gas gauge. DH had one once. I was talking about African History...
