    Do you have workouts you've never done??

    I have a few Cathe's that I just had to own but haven't tried yet. I made sure to take the plastic wrapper off, though, so my husband won't think I'm insane. He doesn't understand the need to own all of Cathe's DVDs, even if I'm not planning on trying each one right away. I bet you guys...

    Who gets one???

    A flu shot, that is. They're available at my local grocery store tomorrow and, like every year, I'm going back and forth on whether or not to get one. What do you guys do?

    Can supplements really help my stiff/sore knees?

    I just wanted to thank everyone for the great input. I think I will start taking glucosamine and give it a try. My husband has been taking it since a knee injury and surgery, so I can just dip right into his supply. I may check out that liquid as well. Thanks a bunch. Everyone on this forum...

    Can supplements really help my stiff/sore knees?

    Does anyone know if there is any benefit to taking supplements such as "Osteo Bi-Flex," or other similar ones that claim to help "lubricate" joints and reduce joint pain and stiffness? I sure would spend the money on them if it would make my knees feel better, but for some reason, I'm a bit...

    Please, help me make a decision about this daycare>>

    I am probably not in an objective mindset to answer this question, since I am currently working on a case involving the death of an infant in in-home care. But nonentheless, I have alway felt more comfortable with my children in a center where several adults are present. I know there are many...

    Vegas Wedding Question

    It's me again. I think I got the name of the chapel wrong -- it may be Little Church of the West. Anyway, I'm sure there's a web site. Check it out -- it was very cute.

    Vegas Wedding Question

    My DH and I got married in Vegas six years ago. We actually got married in one of those cheesy Vegas wedding chapels -- not the kind in a hotel, but the stand-alone kind. It's called Little Chapel of the West. I think it cost $200. Anyway, I had a blast. It looked like a tiny church, and...

    Questions about Slow and Heavy

    If I remember correctly: For SH Chest and Back, Cathe uses 12, 15 and 25 pound dumbbells. She actually drops down in weight after a set or two on some of the exercises, if I recall. In SH Bis and Tris, she uses 5, 8, 12 and 15 pound dumbbells, and a 25 and 30 pound barbell. Again, I think...

    Which leg workout do you use?

    Thanks for all the input. I think I'll go with my old favorite, GS Legs. Besides, I just looked at the exercises on SH Legs, and I think there are too many lunges for my increasingly sore knees. Thanks again, gals.

    Which leg workout do you use?

    I'm doing a S&H rotation for a few weeks, and I'm wondering . . . for anyone who's done a S&H rotation, did you use S&H Legs, or did you substitute something else? I know S&H Legs is a bit shorter than Cathe's other leg workouts, and I only work legs once a week, so I'm wondering what to do...

    Any Catheites in Eastern MA?

    Don't I wish I was in Eastern MA! I don't live there now, but I went to college in Western MA and law school in Eastern MA. I'm from R.I., and my whole family is in RI and NH, so I get back there often, but not often enough. How I miss the Boston area! If I could afford it, I might just move...

    Question for Olay Regenerist users

    Hello there. Has anyone tried the Olay Definity line? I like the Regenerist line, but since Olay came out with a new line (as they always do), I'm wondering whether to try it. Any thoughts?

    Does B&G ever get any easier!

    Hasn't gotten any easier for me, either. Especially the walking lunges and lunge/squat combo. Why are they so hard for me? It might be a few years before I don't have to cheat on those.

    Friends borrowing Cathe Dvds

    I lent a few to my neighbor directly across the street once. Then I sat anxiously staring out my front window for several days, waiting for their return. No kidding. They came back fine, but due to the anxiety it caused me, I'll never lend again.

    Any NFL fans here??

    Big Patriots fan here. Go Pats! I only wish I could afford to move back to my homeland in New England!

    Part-time working

    You could always check into government employment. I have worked in several government offices that have at least some part-time positions. I currently work as an Assistant Attorney General at the state level and I work 20 hours a week. (I essentially "share" a 40-hour position with another...

    How often should I replace my shoes?

    Thanks for the input, everyone. I just ordered a new pair, and if I like them (I've worn Rykas before, but not the N-gage Instructor, so we'll see), I'm going to order a second pair as Kathryn suggests. Thanks again!

    How often should I replace my shoes?

    Hello everyone. I'm wondering how often you generally wear your workout shoes before replacing them. It's harder for me to tell than with my running shoes, since the tread doesn't wear out quickly working out on carpet. Thanks in advance for any input! Have a great weekend.
