Hello everyone. I just thought I would update those who responded to my last posts about herniated discs. I still have some problems going on....I've not opted for surgery yet, but my biggest concern is the weakness I have in my right leg....my doctor says I have only half the horsepower in...

Hi. Can anyone recommend new tapes that are equal in intensity to Cathe's Interval Max, Gin Millers' Intense Moves or Karen Voights Energy Sprint? Karens is less intense than the other two, but the intervals last longer. I love these tapes, find they are the most effective cardio...

burnout Hi. I remember a design professor telling me that any good design puts in a weak point that will break down when the system is overloaded. I think the body is that way. Little things happen to tell you that there is a problem. Listen to these because something major could blow if...

movement Sara: Thanks for the encouragement. I agree with you. I noticed that even a little walk made me feel better. It's when I'm prone all afternoon that makes the pain unbearable. I don't like all the pills either. I'm weaning from the prednisone, also had the local injection of...

wieght I was squatting with 50 lbs., doing step-ups with the same and putting two 20-lb. dumbells above my pelvic area while doing bench work. I'm not sure which of those did it, who knows. It could have been when I carried a 50lb. sack of horse feed into the barn. I'm not sure which did it...

thanks Judyr: Thanks for your response, although I don't want to think that I can never do a Cathe tape again. It sounds like we are alike though, both in really good shape, and maybe overdoing it. What were your operations, and does having one mean that you are susceptible to one...

O.K. my freinds. I've done it now. Too much weight and too quickly led me to a herniated disc. What I'd like to know is has anyone else experienced one, and, how and when can I safely get back to working out? I am still in pain, using painkillers and prednisone, but can't stand the inability...

thanks guys Thank you for all the responses. I might try a few of their myoplex lite shakes as lunch for awhile, I already do the small meals during the day, but gain weight very easily, so I think I'll skip their protein bars. Thanks!!!!

<center><font size="1" color="#ff0000">LAST EDITED ON Apr-01-00 AT 09:32PM (EST)</font></center> Me again. I have two questions. Can anyone tell me how stepping compares to other cardio activities in calories burned per hour, or how to guess about how much you are burning? I don't know that...

Hello everybody. I'm wondering if anyone has tried this Body for life thing that is getting so much publicity lately. Are those results real or is it a scam? It seems almost too good to be true, although it isn't anything too faddish or unhealthy, but it is hard to believe some of the results...

apology I apologize. I certainly didn't mean naturally thin people. People of all sizes and shapes is what makes this world interesting. I meant the unhealthy, anorexic models that live on one rice cake a day and don't have the energy to move. Please forgive the misunderstanding.

Hi again Cathe: Everytime I finish one of your videos I want to thank you for showing that strength makes a woman beautiful. I am so tired of seeing 90 pound weaklings held up as the image we should strive for. I also want to thank you for having real people in your videos along with you...

Hi Cathe! I know you stay away from nutritional questions, and give very sensible straightforward advice, but I was wondering what you think about creatine supplementation for women. I don't want to look like hercules, but I've read so much about what it can do for strength gains. Does it...

I do all three of the P.S. tapes together in order to get a really effective total body workout on Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays....I fast forward through the instructional parts to cut down on the time required to go through them all. In the future, why don't you put an instructional section...

thank you Many thanks. Maybe I should realize these are 50 year old knees that have had a few bangs skiing etc. over the years and give them a break from real heavy weights for awhile. I will do a search about side stitches. Thanks again!!!!
