    Cathe, follow-up question about varying cardio

    Hi Cathe, I was reading your response to another poster about how you primarily use running for cardio but change it up when your body adjusts. Running is murder for my knees, and since I love your high impact, I figure I need to limit high impact activities to that. My question is, can I...

    advice about varying cardio - what counts?

    Ok, so we know we have to vary cardio to shock the body for fat loss. But what counts? If you primarily like doing Cathe cardio, do you just need to get over it and do some other things like running, or join a gym and use cardio equipment? Can this notion of varying cardio be accomplished...

    can my HR monitor be right?

    I read about the HR others typically reach doing interval workouts and its 170 at maximum. My HR as measured by the monitor usually is around 175-190 - very high. Can this be right?

    hip flexors and belly bulge

    I read something interesting in a current health mag and wanted to see what people thought. It stated that if your hip flexors are too tight (which I assume could happen if you step a lot) it can create lower belly bulge because the tight hip flexors pull at weak lower ab muscles, causing them...

    Just read the thread about someone criticizing Cathe, and someone said that you could not look like Cathe just by doing her vids. I was wondering what others thought about that, and what do people supplement their Cathe with? I'm guessing the only way to get that muscularity is to lift at the...

    question about L&G exercises

    Cathe, There is an exercise in L&G where you are on the high step with 3 risers and you step off with one foot to the side, pulse, then come back up. Which leg is the working leg in this exercise (or are both?). Also, I have a question about the form of another exercise, when you are...
