    Low Carb Diet

    Actually, what Cathe has posted that she's doing is more of a Zone based diet NOT Atkins. There IS a significant difference. I agree with Trevor's thoughts on keeping things simple, as well and really don't see any "right" or "wrong" stuff with what he posted. Cathe just might not agree with...

    How to know what to eat if vegan is the goal?

    RE: Maverick: My apologies to the board for reacting to Maverick's post. I don't post much and haven't been around enough lately to know who she is or about past "trollish behavior"...but that type of post really sets off a hot button reaction in me. You're absolutely right that its best to...

    How to know what to eat if vegan is the goal?

    That response was entirely uncalled for! Apparently there are some who do fine and THRIVE on a vegan diet. Others do best with meat and dairy. If it doesn't affect you, why on Earth do you care what someone else uses as their eating plan? This post was so lacking in basic courtesy that I can't...

    Need some Bosu help!

    Hi Sherry! I think it's Gay's Reactive Strength video that shows the chest flyes on the bosu. As for weighted squats, it just depends, the heaviest I've gone so far is only 8 pounds - I have to admit, I'm a little bit afraid of going to heavy on the darn thing even though I realize that's just...

    fitprime-new fav move

    I'm a Firm "freak" and a Cathe, Joyce, Slim Series and many other instructor "freak" LOL I love Cathe's intensity AND chattiness (and find the song "Buttercup" to be a lot of fun in a workout LOL.) I also love things about all my other fitness workouts and instructors. Some may not be as...

    Need some Bosu help!

    Not sure which videos you're using with the bosu but have you tried the ones from bosupro.com? I LOVE these workouts! There's a bit of weightwork and lots of great core work. Also, I do squats and lunges on the bosu when they're done during other workouts. There is just nothing like a nice...

    Congratulations from me, too!!!!! That's a wonderful accomplishment :) I couldn't believe it when I saw the subject line! I'm allergic to sunless tanners, too and have NEVER met others who have the same problem! I've been trying for years to find a brand that doesn't break me out. I...

    Who hates that their step is green and pink?

    This is the one time that I don't mind bright colors. My whole house is blacks and earthtones and rusts and so on (African/Asian fusion decor) but my workout room is bright, happy colors! LOL I've got anti-fatigue squares in many colors- part are dark gray, the others yellow, blue, red and...

    Cathe-Are You Going to the Arnold Expo?

    Ooohh! I hope Cathe does go! I'll be there, too! This expo isn't like the typical fitness expos where there are booths for home exercisers, though. It's a bit more of the hardcore bodybuilder types. There are bodybuilding and fitness competitions and exhibitions to see. The expo itself is...

    Where do I get a mini step?

    Well, it wasn't for lack of (our) trying LOL I remember approximately three years ago a bunch of people from the various forums all wrote The Step Company and BEGGED them to make this. We told them that we were making our own and that there is a true market for this item. Their response was...

    Where do I get a mini step?

    There are several people who post on the various fitness forums that we all visit, who have developed a great way to make homemade mini toppers. They look great and everyone who has one raves about them. I have to admit, as much as I wanted to wait for them to go retail, I went ahead and...

    Where do I get a mini step?

    Hi Frankie, The mini step has not been released for retail sales yet but should be soon! It's a possibility they might even be out there as soon as this month. No one knows yet how much they'll be or where they will be sold (as far as I know) but I'm sure they will post here when they're...

    Bun & Thigh Rocker Question

    RE: Bun & Thigh Rocker Question I'm easy...I just bought mine from ebay (probably from the same seller Marci did - he had 8 total). It only took reading these threads and the ones at the ya ya site to convince me I couldn't live without it! I just can't wait to get it and give it a try...

    Bun & Thigh Rocker Question

    RE: Bun & Thigh Rocker Question Hi Hedy, I'm not Francine but I did just recently get a BOSU and I've been raving about it at all the forums! I just LOVE it! It gives a whole new life to a lot of more basic step tapes. Unfortunately, Cathe step tapes just wouldn't work on it but lunges etc...

    how many of you will use the Firm's step instead of the mini-step?

    Oh yes, I'll definitely buy the mini step! I have the Firm 14 inch and the 8 inch as well as the Fanny Lifter but I'll be glad to have one thing (the topper) that can be used for any height I wish. I've wanted one of these for years (and I'm a sucker for the newest thing haha) Does anyone...

    Mini Step Update

    >Pleese enlighten me. I'm new to >Cathe and haven't done step. >Does this replace the other >step. Thanks Hi! It doesn't replace the step - it ENHANCES it! The mini-step fits over the risers on either end and you can use it for a tall step up box or many other things. I'm buying it the...
