    I was just curious as to the temp. in the room you are working out in when you wear pants? I get extremely hot when working out. I have to wear shorts & a sports bra, even if it's winter.

    Cathe, sorry if too personal.....

    Thanks for answering my question, I think you look amazing. I don't know how long I plan on breastfeeding but I know that I am still improving my fitness level. So maybe my abs are "there" just under the layer of fat needed for breastmilk.

    Does anyone know how many inches the step is used in the Pyramid Lower Body workout? I don't have the high step but I use the firm fanny lifter. I was wondering if it was the same height.
