Wow, that looks like a Top Ten Live of All Time. All your best leg moves in 1 workout, and all standing is a nice change. So fun to have extra guests joining. Where can I get my hands on one of those tie dyed Cathlete shirts? The color and brightness of those shirts perfectly capture...

The wait time is worth it. Nothing this amazing happens quickly. It is going to be a sweaty, strong masterpiece. Appreciate all your efforts and attention to detail as usual, Cathe!

It's always a good day at Live when there are balloons and Al in the house!!!

Wheeeeeee!!! :D

Sad to hear you feel ill! You are always missed, but are definitely supported in taking some much needed rest and recovery time. Sending well wishes!

Congrats, Hazlady! I hope you love your PBs as much as I have loved mine (I'm sure you will!).

Power Blocks. I've had mine for 15 years and they are still going strong. Mine go to 90lbs and increase by 2.5lb increments. When I bought they did have 50lb sets available. Will say I have no idea what the price point is these days but they are definitely an investment that have held value...

I also disagree with the OP. I wish Cathe offered Kettlebell workouts! Done with proper form and technique, Kettlebell moves are incredible for core strength!

@firemedic , my personal experience with Autumn, and many of the BB instructors, is that their form is terrible (like inviting an injury) and their chattering becomes irritating. I couldn't get through 1 week of 80 Day Obsession for these reasons. Having trained with Cathe for almost 20 years...

I 100% recommend Dr Bri Grogan, she is a pelvic floor physical therapist with a website and YouTube channel. She has a tremendous amount of free content, but if you want a step by step approach, I recommend her Lift program, available for purchase on her website. That program helped me become...

This sounds FANTASTIC!!! I am jumping for joy!

This sounds FANTASTIC!!! Jumping for joy!

@Hazlady my feet also turn out when I walk so I opted for a wider belt when purchasing my treadmill. I believe mine is 20 inches wide but 18 would probably be suitable. I just knew if I went too narrow I would be obsessing over for placement and staying upright (not tripping!). I didn't...
