    Racewalking

    Hi everyone! I have a question about racewalking. Do any of you do this on a treadmill, or mostly outdoors? I would like to try it, but would probably only do it indoors on a treadmill. Also, on a treadmill, at what speed (mph) is it considered racewalking? How long must your workout be to...

    Completely off topic --- Any Nascar fans here?

    Yes, yes! My favorite driver is Ricky Rudd. Looks like his string of incredibly bad luck is starting to break. I really hope he decides NOT to retire at the end of this season! I also really like Dale Jarret. Haven't met any drivers yet, but I'm hoping to someday. Haven't gotten to a race...

    Fitness Walking?

    Thanks to everyone who replied so quickly! I think I may give walking a try at least a couple of times a week--maybe cross train with Cathe tapes and running or run/walking. I will have to try hard to keep my pace up. I did a little bit of research on it and I've read in several places that...

    Fitness Walking?

    Hi Everyone, I have a question for anyone out there. Have any of you had good success with fitness walking for weight loss? I have been running on and off lately, but it's so hard on my knees. I was curious if I could get good results with walking instead. I just read an article in M & F...

    Question re: Floorwork for Lower Body

    Hi Deb, I'm not Cathe, but I'll throw my 2 cents in here! I have been doing a rotation with the PS series and have only been doing the standing portion of SLA. I have been doing this for a few weeks and have still seen good results. BUT, I've been doing SLA standing two times per week. It's...

    Weights question

    Thanks for your support Cathe! I started a PS rotation this morning with BBA. I added some weight and it really made a difference! I probably could have added more for the back segment, but I was really pushing it during the biceps segment! I wasn't able to do all 10 negative curls, but like...

    Thanks for the information, both of you! I don't mind complicated choreography too much. I think I may take both of your advice and try one of Christi's newer tapes! Thanks again, I'll let you know how it goes! Thea

    Christi Taylor?

    Hi everyone- Just a quick question for those of you who use Christi Taylor's tapes. Is her choreography comparable to Cathe's or more complex than Cathe's? I've read some reviews saying that Christi's is very complicated. I LOVE Cathe's, so I was thinking of giving some of Christi's videos a...

    Weights question

    Thanks so much for the advice! I was definitely not shaking when I finish my sets with the weights I was using! I think I will try adding weight a bit at a time and see. I am almost positive that I need to add at least some. Thanks for letting me know about your spinning post too. I will...

    Weights question

    Hi! I have a question for you Cathe, or anyone else out there who could offer some advice. I have done rotations with the PS series before, but not gotten the results I wanted. I am pretty sure that this is because I haven't used heavy enough weights. My question is, in the PS series for...

    Yoga Zone

    Thanks for the tips! Actually, I think my brother gets the Health Network since he has digital cable, so maybe I could get him to tape some of the Yoga Zone shows for me! Thanks for the good idea, I really appreciate it! -Thea

    Yoga Zone

    Has anybody out there tried the Yoga Zone tapes? I am thinking about getting a yoga tape or two for home and wasn't sure what kind were good. I like the idea that Yoga Zone has different types available like meditation, flexibility, power, etc. I'd appreciate any opinions anyone has! Thanks...

    Any will-power advice?

    Hi! Thanks so much for the advice! I really appreciate it. I have been making an effort lately to pack my lunch and snacks so I am not tempted by vending machines or by going out to grab some fast food. That seems to help. It's when I get home that the trouble begins....Anyway, I like the...

    Any will-power advice?

    Hey everyone- I'm trying to lose weight and am having big trouble with will-power! I do plenty of exercise (6-pack, PS series, some running/walking), but I just eat way too much. I might be good for most of the week but then for days on end I just eat tons of junk. I keep telling myself I...

    Need advice on treadmills!

    Thank you everyone!! Thanks to you all for your advice. I will definately take it all into consideration! I would really love to get one. I took up running this summer, and since I live in Wisconsin, I don't think it will be much fun trying to run outside all winter! Having it be too noisy...

    Need advice on treadmills!

    Hello everyone- I am thinking about investing in a treadmill and was wondering if anyone out there had any advice on brands, models, etc? I have heard that Proform is a good brand but I'm not sure. I was looking to spend about $500. I am curious about "wear and tear" and how sturdy some...

    PS series question

    Hi Anat and everyone! Yes, there are some days that I do both a PS tape and cardio. On the days I do both, I make sure it is one of the two upper body PS tapes because I feel that PS legs is pretty intense and enough of a workout without cardio! I have been exercising seriously for about a...
