    Workouts using resistance bands/tubing?

    I'm starting to do quite a bit of traveling for work and am looking for some workouts using a resistance band/tubing that I can pack in my suitcase. I bought the Body Fusion DVD but it's just too easy. Looking for something tougher but haven't found anything else on Cathe's website. Thanks!

    Rotation question

    I know that it is best to do a rotation for several weeks and then change it up so your body doesn't plateau/adapt. However, I'm wondering if the order in which you do your workouts needs to be different week to week as well. For example, does your body adapt to always doing back/biceps on...

    Warm-up necessary ?

    Hi, Cathe! I'm starting a new rotation next week doing one body part per day from S&H followed by 30 minutes of cardio using various Cathe DVDs. Do you think it is necessary to do the warm-up portion of the cardio DVD or will I be warmed up enough from the weights that I can jump right into...

    Cathe, I absolutely love Butts & Guts!! I've been doing it once a week since February. However, after doing it 3 weeks ago, after the general soreness went away after a day or two, I was left with a deep ache right in the center of my left butt cheek that radiates down a little bit into my...

    Swimming for weight loss/strength gains?

    We recently bought a house with an inground swimming pool. I've been doing Cathe workouts for several years but was thinking about incorporating some pool workouts into my routine.

    Do I HAVE to vary cardio??

    I know that you always recommend doing a variety of different cardio workouts in your rotations, etc. I'm wondering if it is necessary though? For example, I just started doing Rhythmic Step and I love it, I did it 6 days in a row and finally got all the steps down (yeah, I'm a tad bit...

    Workouts on tv??

    I remember you once posting that your workouts were on TV, I believe it was the FitTV channel? Do you know if any of your workouts are going to be on TV in the near future? It'd be fun to try them out before buying.

    Shoes for wide feet??

    If anyone out there with wide feet like me can offer any suggestions on good workout shoes, I'd appreciate it!! I've tried several different pairs and my feet always end up numb and tingly by the end of the workout. If I losen them up then my ankle area is too lose.

    Floor work vs. standing legs

    Cathe, I've heard from many people that they noticed a huge difference in their hips/upper thighs by doing floor leg work. Is that considered strength training? The Pure Strength Legs & Abs does use the body bar, but is that enough resistance? Would you ever recommend a short rotation with...

I have also been watching what I eat and have been faithful in both regards. :D My workout schedule consists of doing 20 minutes of weights (one body part per day) followed immediately by 30 minutes of cardio 5-6 days...

    The Ultimate Fat Loss Strategy???

    I keep hearing about this "Ultimate Fat Loss Strategy" by some guy named Phil Kaplan. The part I have a question about is the exercise program he suggests: weights for 30-40 minutes immediately followed by cardio for 20-30 minutes 6 days a week. This sounds like an awful lot of weight work in...
