    please Cathe, help with weak Abs

    Hi: I have a good answer for abs, but despite being a doctor and a martial artist, I must admit that my wife taught me this one, and it's very important, for the health of your neck!! (She's been trained as a Yoga Instructor, so had analyzed this more than I had before she brought this up.)...

    What DVD's have no step exercises?

    Back to my original question. I just clicked on DVD's and went to that part of the website, there are offers there to buy "all 40" of Cathe's DVD. However, the page I went to only shows 17 DVD's on it, and I didn't see a "next page" button? Where are the other pages with DVD's? Or am I...

    Hi Renee, and thanks for your response! I appreciate the input, but I think my wife is really looking for NO impact exercises, so I guess we'll go with one of the strength building DVD's, would you agree with others that Pure Strength is the one to start with, or would you go for Slow &...

    RE: Dr. David! Hi! I just have a quick comment on your struggles with Coca-Cola etc. My wife and I have been on the Eat To Live type plan for months now, and I had an interesting experience. I had not drunk any coke for a month or more, and had discovered that "ordinary" stuff like apples...

    I'm tired of trying to lose weight!

    RE: Dr David Interesting that you mention the Zone, as I believe Dr. Fuhrman talks about how Dr. McDougall once debated on live TV with Dr. Sears, the creator of the Zone Diet. Dr. Sears was claiming that he had been on his own diet for (I forget how many) yrs, and Dr. McDougall demonstrated...

For my wife, who's small (less than 100 lbs) and for me, getting started again from scratch, I bought a product made by the PowerBlock company, called...
