A number of people on this forum seemed to have lost the companionship of furry loved ones of late. I have been there, and it is tough. So as a reminder of how beautiful our relationships with our animal companions are, I thought I would share a couple of links that I think really tell us a lot...

One of our local TV stations did an interesting segment on the so-called Graston technique, which is used by physical therapists and chiropractors to help people recover from injury etc. It involves the use of somewhat medieval-looking tools to intensely massage the problem area and essentially...

This is just for giggles --I started a separate thread so it wouldn't get buried in the previous, and very interesting Palin political discussion. There are also "separated at birth" photos of McCain, Biden and Obama as well, so it's totally bipartisan! Enjoy...

I am trying to decide whether to sign up for seven weeks of the eDiets Deliciously Yours meal delivery plan. This would be for just a couple months in the fall, when I will be working full time and going to grad school, and my work/study schedule will be ridiculous. Has anyone had any...

Anyone tried resistance stretching? It involves stretching and contracting the muscles at the same time. Apparently it's one of Olympic swimmer Dara Torres' secrets for being in such amazing shape and recovering quickly enough to keep competing with swimmers half her age. It sounds a little bit...

I relate to Deazie on a number of levels! The photos on the link to her website that someone posted are gorgeous! She's inspiring. Just wanted to say thanks for adding her to the cast.:7 :7 :7

It's great to see Cathe wearing glasses (well, maybe not for her!) But as someone who has been wearing glasses for years while doing Cathe workouts at the crack of dawn or late at night, just wanted to give a shout-out and say, well, that's my life! And Cathe looks great in her specs, by...

I have just this to say about the new male cast members: Bring 'em! I love the "tease" of the new STS blog post. Thrilled to see that Brenda is healed and back (yay, Brenda!!!), along with the rest of the "girls." I eagerly await the announcement about the "boys" who made the cut in the...

Got mine today and it looks fabulous. As with last year's calendar, I appreciate all the design touches, Cool Cathe Trivia (and photos!) and the thematic/seasonal color schemes. Another good job -- 2008, bring it on!

Cathe, Any updates on how Brenda is doing and how her recovery from her injury is progressing? Seeing her cheerful smile in the new workouts brings the question to mind! I hope she is doing OK and on her way back to full recovery!:-) :-)

What a fabulous photo -- and a stretch limo, no less! Yowza! I hope you guys had a fabulous time in the Big Apple.Can't wait to get the workouts!:7

I'm dying to hear who the mystery guest speakers are, and also any news about the MP3/iPod workouts if those details are announced! It's not clear if the Cathe blog will be updated, so please remember all of us out who are shut out here in cyber-land with our noses pressed to the virtual...

Thanks so much for this post -- it's fascinating how much work and thought and coordination goes into the filming of the workouts!! Good googly-moogly!:o Thanks for all of it, and for sharing the journey with us! Hope you get some rest over the holiday -- and Happy Fourth of July!:7

For those needy souls among us who've been checking in periodically since Halloween! :7

Cathe, based on the photo posted on the blog from Low Impact Circuit, I would say that the evil genius that has served you so well in past workouts is in full gear.}( Tying the band to a weighted barbell and THEN doing biceps curls?!? OUCH!!! I'm loving the blog and can't wait to actually try...

Cathe, This is another "mash note" about the Hardcore series -- in particular, at the moment I am truly "enjoying" }( the Gym Style series. I am usually able to keep up with you on upper body workouts, more or less, but the Gym Style workouts, in particular Chest and Triceps, are pushing me...

I was thrilled to see that Cathe is featured in a Wall Street Journal article about FitTV!! I picked up the their "Personal Journal" section and there was Cathe's picture (although small) on the cover, from the Body Blast series. It's a very amusing article about the somewhat feel-good nature of...

I’ve only done PLB a few of times, but I get a very loud squeaking during the floorwork using the stability ball, as the rubber of my sneakers rubs back and forth against the ball. This happens particularly during the froggy-leg move. It’s loud enough to wake up the whole household--not a good...

Happy holidays Cathe and all! Cathe, hope you are not too frenzied, what with the busy season and trying to get the new workouts finished and shipped. Just a quick question: is there any update to provide on when the new videos will ship? Sorry if I'm over-eager or if this had been covered...

Cathe or SNM: I was just wondering what the music is like in the new videos. There are a number of tunes from past videos that I love--from Power Hour and the CTX series in particular--and I was wondering if any of that music is used in the new workouts. (like the biceps song from Power...
