Thanks for your comments...My new orthopedist specializes in sports medicine. She said the same thing about the cortisone injections. The orthovisc seems to be a good next step and we did talk about the possibility of PRP. Would you tell me more about your experiences? Were you able to get...

Just wondering if any of you have had hyaluronic acid injections in your knees. I have been dealing with a torn meniscus in my right knee that cortisone no longer seems to help. I have very mild osteoarthritis, nothing advanced enough to worry about something like knee replacement, and the...

I wonder how many elderly Cathletes are here? Anyone know how to do a poll? (See, I guess that request really does prove I am elderly!)

This is a question I have been pondering of late. Google says that if you are 65 or older you are considered elderly. I am 65 and there is no time-zone, planet or even a dimension in which I would consider that I am ELDERLY! I have been working out for 40 years exactly (got a Jane Fonda VHS...

Good Morning, I was wondering if any of you have dealt with Morton's Neuroma (self diagnosed) and perhaps have some suggestions on inserts, etc. Thanks in advance, Debbie

So I got swept up in the Black Friday sales and bought a kettlebell set (5-10-15-20), now I just need a good workout to go with them :) Would love some suggestions from those in the know. Thanks, Deb

I wonder if Cathe has entire room dedicated as a "workout wear" closet. I struggle with how to store my always growing workout wardrobe. I have a seriously challenging time throwing anything away.

Is there any core work or extended stretches? Wonderful surprise!

I looked at these hooks. The shipping is more than the hooks! Please keep us posted if you have them made. The concept is great.

Any kind - but especially something like the perfect30 HIIT pair. Another kickboxing workout would be wonderful. Thanks.

The mini ball stability abs! Oh my...I looked like a walrus floundering around on the sand. The ball had a mind of its own and would shoot out across the room. During the bicycle maneuver my arms and legs never could quite get it together! Probably got a good workout chasing the ball and...

Just ordered them! and the bada** ones too!

I do hip thrusts using my stability ball. Works great. Very easy to roll out, do the thrusts and then roll back up. I have been doing it this way for more than 3 years, I am using an 80# bar-bell with no problems.

I agree! I am 5'11' and my legs are long - 36" inseam. I have to travel a lot farther to complete most exercises, especially side-to-side lunges. To keep up with the workout I usually will just do fewer reps. With weight training it is about TUT so I figure that by traveling the extra 6" my...

Cathe, so sorry to hear about your injury. Those danged jar lids! It never ceases to amaze me that I have the strength to one arm row with a 40# dumbbell but I need a "granny gripper" to open a jar of pickles! I know how hard it is to be side-lined. Rest, Rest, Rest.... :)
