LAST EDITED ON Apr-26-02 AT 06:17PM (Est)[p]Hi Candice - I've been practicing Tae Kwon Do (Korean martial art) for 2 years now, and have my brown belt. I'm testing in June for a red belt. Anyway, I'm the opposite of you, I started using Cathe tapes to increase my strength and performance in my...

Donna you are my hero - my sister's too, she got me on Cathe and these forums and mentioned you way before I'd ever gone on here to read about you myself. When I think about all the people I know who are even just slightly overweight yet come up with millions of excuses as to why they can't...

LAST EDITED ON Apr-22-02 AT 06:12PM (Est)[p]this totally happens to me too! I get teased all the time by my coworkers who know I'm in good shape. I sometimes think it is the sudden BURST of activity...you know you go from sitting in your chair for an hour or two to walking up some stairs. Also I...

My friend just recommended Avon's Sun So Soft Self Tanning Lotion, I'm waiting for mine to come in the mail. She said it goes on well, good color, no streaks and great smell. Also it is on sale right now. $5.99 for a 4.2 oz bottle. I've had good luck with Avon products and you can order online...

Ladies - www.landsend.com they have lots of cropped chinos and capri pants and they are actually cut for women who have hips, not 16 year old skinny teenagers! I swear by Lands End. I'm a total pear no matter what I do and I swear I have not bought one single pair of pants from anyone else in...

I'll third that. My sister 'forced' me to go on Cathe.com and order Power Hour DVD when I was complaining that I wasn't strong enough or flexible enough during my martial arts classes and that I was already scared of the pre-black belt training that is at least a year and a half away. That was...

I've had days like that, the best thing to do right away (for me anyway) is to get outside and take a walk, just get OUT of the office. Sometimes you can't do that, depending on your job or the weather, but removing yourself from the situation helps a lot. Or even just have a little cry in the...

Hi - I've never tried any Powerstrike tapes but I'm starting to think I should! They pop up all over the place on these forums!

You know, this is an oldie but goodie - Karen Voight's Power Packed Workout, I think she made it in 1991, the first time I watched it I was in college and I burst out laughing and thought she must be on speed (jk) because I thought no one could do such a workout but after about 3 tries I got it...

I've done both, and they are equally tough but I prefer Cardio Kicks and also think it is a lot safer for you (especially if you're working out on carpet)- the Tae Bo instantly has you raring to go, and some of the kicks are WAY TO FAST in my opinion (I've been taking kickboxing classes for...

A good rule of thumb when ordering online is to check that the website url changes from http:// to https:// when you are actually ordering and that there is a little picture of a closed lock at the bottom bar of the website window (usually the bottom right hand corner). These two things mean it...

Hey have you ever tried the Lands End catalog? www.landsend.com The clothes are made for real female bodies, the sizes are normally sized (small is a 6-8 (not a 0-2), they have all sizes up to 20s (18W-26W), petite, and the BEST part is that they will hem your pants at the inseam measurement of...

I believe that Karen Voight step workout is called 'Energy Sprint'... :)

I'm all for going to the dermatologist - someone else mentioned Retin-A and Minocycline, I used those and about everything else under the sun as a teenager, and they work well...I especially liked the oral antibiotics becasue they don't dry your skin out and it takes the redness out of your...

Also if you ever watch those profiles of them, or read the articles they work out for HOURS every day, its like a part time job for them. And they have professional chefs feeding them and I would guess some plastic surgeons helping them out too. Plus a lot of the time body doubles are used in...

I love Cardio Kicks too - I take martial arts classes and the studio offeres Cardio Kickboxing classes and they are done well, when I did Tae Bo I felt that the risk for injury was pretty high ESPECIALLY in the advanced tape, that is crazy. I modified a lot of it purely out of fear for my knees...

Hi, I read that too - I take a cardio kickboxing class at my tae kwon do studio, and occassionally we do three - two minute rounds of jumproping at the end of the kickboxing stuff and it KICKS @$$. However its really hard on your knees and shins and I sometimes think its only the loud beat in...

Continental Yogurt - its non fat and sugar free, it is sweetened with fruit juice and the fruit that is in it. I have hypoglycemia and I can eat this yogurt with no sugar crashes. Its very good, and also is thick unlike most non-fat yogurts.

Ha ha I just read that article last night and thought the exact same thing - Where is Cathe? Especially odd for a Muscle and Fitness mag!
