    Elbow pain & more

    Heh, heh! Cheryl! Yeah, that's the kind of brace, although they also use foam pads. Either will do, as long as there's a light pressure on that area. Give your arm a rest before you do those exercises. In fact, if you have pain now, I wouldn't do anything for a few weeks. I think those...

    Elbow pain & more

    Dear Cheryl, don't take it personally!!! :-) I was diagnosed with tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) earlier this year. I went to a sports doctor who gave me a cortisone shot and an elbow brace. He told me I could keep on working out with it if I used really light weight workouts rather...

    Ouch!

    >Oh wow, that is funny! I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one >that falls off the wagon every now and then. Me, either!

    Cathe- did you see today's USA Today?

    I just read an article about this (but I can't find the link!) but it said one thing women can do to strengthen the knee is to improve their hamstrings and calf muscles as well as their quadriceps, that all three muscle groups support and protect the knee.

    Low Carbers - NEED HELP!!!

    I think you misunderstand Atkins, or perhaps your sister and niece are not following Atkins--they just THINK they're following it. Atkins is easy, doesn't consume a lot of time or money (unless you buy all the expensive fake low-carb food coming out now) and allows a HUGE variety of...

    Quoting Cathe

    I've started saying, "Double-knot those laces and get ready to go!" (from Imax2) although I think I've somehow mangled what she really said. I guess I should pay better attention the next time I do that title.

    What Cathe-isms have you misunderstood?

    I did Imax2 a couple of times before I realized that Cathe was telling us to do "Tuck Jumps," not "TOUGH Jumps." Well, they are TOUGH for me!

    DawnA, you and I must've been separated at birth. Those are all the things I've found difficult, too.

    Anyone with Celiac Disease?

    Thanks, Michele, I will always be grateful for gentle corrections! A quick run-through of sites devoted to celiac disease also mention that if a person goes on a gluten-free diet BEFORE a confirmed diagnosis, then gluten antibodies will not appear in subsequent bloodtests and the disease...

    Anyone with Celiac Disease?

    All the more reason to cut out the gluten. If you have antibodies in your blood, your body is fighting something! Remove the cause of the antibodies and you will be better able to fight off other threats. An army doesn't do well fighting two (or more) fronts. If you're worried about the...

    For those of you who have most if not all of the DVD's.....

    RE: For those of you who have most if not all of the DV... I first bought videos piecemeal. Then I bought a bunch to get a discount. Then I threw all caution to the wind, sold almost all my videos on eBay and bought one of the DVD bundles. Then I got into presales. That's the best way...

    Good Websites for Homeschooling

    Here's a vote for Sonlight curriculum! It's like a big smorgasboard: you pick and choose what you need to fit your schedule. We've been homeschooling for 6 years; the first 3 I flopped around with all sorts of curricula. Sonlight was the first curriculum we stuck with for a whole year, and...

    Anyone with Celiac Disease?

    My sister was diagnosed with it in 1986. If you had the gluten antibody I think you really should go on a gluten-free diet as soon as possible. It's a mistake to wait for full onset of the disease! ANY gluten destroys the cilia in a celiac's intestinal tract. Some celiacs are so sensitive...

    Cathe Videography

    Yes, you see them all the time at eBay and at the Ya Ya's swapmeet. What I would do for eBay would be to do a search like this: "Cathe Friedrich" "Rock Bottoms" complete with the quotation marks. I'd mark the "search titles AND description" box. When the search comes up empty, look for...

    Cathe Videography

    If you go to the order online page, the videos are listed in order of release, with the release dates to the right of the screen. Unfortunately, only the videos still in production are listed. Titles like "Step n Motion 2" or "Rock Bottoms" are not.

    Imax2 #9

    I just noticed this! I had to replay it a few times to see that she was definitely changing legs on the shuffle. But that ricochet-kind-of-move she does seems to be always on the right leg. Hell, maybe she switches on that, too. She moves so fast I can hardly keep up! :P The music...

    SNM - Is CTX Upper Body available on DVD?

    I agree, DVD is better. BUT... The CTX DVD Upper Body premix does not contain the warm-up or cool-down that the VHS tape does. On the DVD premix you have to go to the main menu and pick a warm-up or cool down from another workout. Just had to point that out...:7

    Presale?

    I know you will be filming your new titles this summer, but I was wondering when your presale will begin. I want to buy one of your older DVDs and hope to lump it into the presale purchase. If the presale won't be for a long time, I guess I'll bite the bullet and pay for the separate...

    New Video Poll

    "The Intro to Cathe" tape is an excellent, excellent idea. I am a real klutz and need all sorts of reinforcement.

    STRETCHSTRETCHSTRETCHSTRETCH!

    A thorough total body stretch on DVD, with premixes like, "Stretch for Upper Body Soreness," "Stretch for Lower Body Soreness," "Stretch for Flexibility," etc. Maybe it would just be a compilation of all your stretches, like your Ab Hits DVD. But I'm hoping you'd make a totally new stretching...
