I've been looking at squat racks etc and they look like they take up quite a bit of room and they are expensive. I found these that I could just move to a corner of the room. They would work for my bench press and a squat rack and are affordable. I will never be able to lift as heavy as most...

Could someone help me put a good lower body workout together using the floor work in Cathes videos? Would the floor workout in Pyramid Lower Body, Gym Styles and Butt and Gutts work the lower body good enough to substitute for squats and lunges. It seems like the hamstrings, adductors and...

I just couldn't buy the Platemates I couldn't tell by the pictures if they would fit my barbell and dumbbells and didn't like the increments. I just read in this forum about Pace Weights and it was exactly what I was looking for. I just ordered. I was thrilled with the all the new weight...

I thought you had originally stated that this would be a 6 month program and wonder why you changed it to a 3 month program. My question is would we see better results if we used this as a 6 month program instead of a 3 month program. Would you give us instructions on how to change this to a...

I was reading in any old workout booklet about how important it is to have a pre-workout protein snack such as 1/2 cup of cottage cheese 30 minutes before doing a weight workout. It said that if you workout for an hour doing weight workouts on an empty stomach that you are losing muscle trying...

I want to do a three day split plus one total body strength workout a week and was wondering what workouts would be best together. For example I would do the GS with MM in the the same week. I thought maybe PS with MIS? The other two I don't know what to pair up with are The Pyramids and Slow...

I've been ill off and on since Christmas so I have not been able to workout intensely. I knew when I received Hardcore that I would not be able to work for 70 minutes at one time. Thank you for the shorter premixes. I can do these while working back up to my usual workout lengths. Thank you...

I mailed my preorder in for the Hardcore series. How will I be able to tell when my order is shipped? Susan

Will Hardcore Extreme DVD be 1 workout or will it be like the Terminator DVD and have 3 workouts on it. Just courious. Susan

The other morning I woke up and did not want to get out of bed to workout. It was nice and warm under the covers. Then I started to think about messing up my rotation and how to make up the workout later in the week. I also thought about Cathe and wondered what she was doing. Well, she is...

a question for someone from the "clean eating educated crowd". This week I'm slowing going off my low carb diet to the clean eating way. I've read that the best bread is "sprouted grain breads" such as Alvarado St. Bakery which is refrigerated at health food stores. I tried this about 6...

One instructor in a workout says that "you can work your abs every day because they recover very quickly". One instructor said "your ab muscles are just like any other muscle and need the same time to recover". Which is right? I asked a friend of mine and she said if you don't work them every...

The only Cathe DVD's I haven't purchased yet are Pure Strength, AB Hits, Cardio Hits and The Classic's. Is there any reason to justify buying these? I considered myself finished but my collection just isn't complete. I also promised my husband I was done when I got my last order and I was just...

Is this an oxy-moron? Best tasting fat free plain yogurt? I tried it years ago and it was gross. Well it is on my diet plan to try this again. I really like the flavored but I need to try the plain. I bought a small container of Dannon but have not tried it yet. I haven't found any Yoplait...

I lost a lot of weight on the Atkins diet, but I found I could not continue this type of diet for the rest of my life. I have gained back 7lbs. I just got all my booklets and info on the new flex point or core program from Weight Watchers I'm very excited and look forward to eating brown rice...

I've seen several mentions of squat racks in these threads. I have searched for this and only found a couple for sell that were really expensive. If you have one where did you find it and how much did it cost? We have two fitness stores Oshmans and Academy where I live. I have only checked...

I was debating buying the 2 dvds with rythmic step, mic,imax and power hour, mis and bodymax. After watching the video clips I definately want rythmic step and power hour but not sure about the others. Do you all still like and do these workouts? I thought they looked dated but I looked at my...

I bought a couple of DVDs a month ago. Then bought Blast and Intensity series. Now I'm buying the rest of her DVDs. I couldn't decide which ones to buy. I've been carrying around the catalog with me for about 3 weeks and everytime it's slow at work I read, then read it somemore, go on the...

I did the Push Pull workout for the first time. I really liked it. The modified superman exercise with the heels together, I really felt it. I have never done an exercise for my shins before that felt pretty good too, I felt a little burn. I never did these exercises with the Firm before...

Which series did you enjoy most and get best results. Trying to decide if I need to purchase Pure Strength, Slow and Heavy or Pyramid upper and lower body? Looking for more muscle definition and stength. Thanks Susan
