    Bwa ha ha! Cathlete... I haven't worked out to Cathe in ages. Yikes! I miss her dearly, though.

    The Step

    Princessbear... Try Cathe's Basic Step or Low Impact Step. They have just about all of her signature moves.

    What makes someone a "senior member?"

    I perused the FAQ's and couldn't find anything. Any ideas? Is it because I'm "old?" LOL I made this screen name in 2006 but I know there are posters who have been here a LOT longer. Any ideas?

    Dreams?

    Wow, that is amazing! There is such a thing as "past life regression" where you can explore who you were in past lives in order to understand who you are and what you do in this one. It's clearly not for everyone, but it's there if you ever wanted to do that.

    Dreams?

    Dreams are almost never literal. Death usually symbolizes life change of some kind. Your rather grisly demise in her dream might symbolize the "death" of one phase of her life as she enters another.

    cardio coach - how often?

    Anything that gets your heart rate into the orange or red zone is high intensity, whether it's hills, or speed, or both. It's the interval aspect that makes it HIIT. IMO, the most important thing is to listen to your body. Recovery from HIIT workouts (taking a day off in between) is as...

    recovery week

    You have to give yourself permission to take a break. When you do that, there is no guilt.

    The saga of my first 'competitive' walk

    Congrats! I couldn't run a 10 minute mile, let alone walk. LOL

    CC check in?

    I did CC#3 this morning at the track. No hills there, obviously, but I made do. It sure made the workout FLY by. I had forgotten how much I love them. To the original poster - CC's 1, 2 and 3 are shorter but you can double up on the challenges by adding extra copies of the tracks to your...

    a question for parents whose kids play sports

    I don't think that kind of language is normal, or acceptable, for that matter. In your shoes, I'd call the athletic director at the high school to discuss what you are hearing and that you find it unacceptable.

    OMG. Finally did my first Cardio Coach.

    Yay for you! I love my HRM - it showed me that I worked entirely too hard during my workouts, which explained why I was so exhausted by mid-afternoon. If you're just starting out (or starting over) cardio-wise, I recommend CC's #1, 2 or 3. They are shorter and not quite as intense...

    OMG -- (sensitive issue - and LONG)

    My reply - God endowed us with a free will to do what we feel is right when we reach a crossroads in life. It is not for us fellow human beings to judge. Who knows -- perhaps it was God's plan for these folks to make the wrenching choice to terminate their pregnancy. We don't know the mind of...

    9-1-1, I Need a Man!!!!

    Hi Heather! I was so glad to see your post. ((HUGS)) and best wishes to you on this new leg of life's journey. Give yourself credit for caring enough about yourself to at least try. :) Right now, you already are the best Heather God created you to be.

    Healthy food stinks! Literally!

    I don't steam most veggies and such. I mostly like to grill, roast and sautee them. Brussels sprouts are really good cut in half and sauteed in a little olive oil until lightly browned with a squeeze of lemon juice and a touch of sea salt right before serving. I occasionally steam zucchini...

    Who are Your Favorite Fitness Instructors and Why?

    LOL - on the video side, I'm a Cathe snob, too. I have one or two vids from other instructors but once I switched to Cathe, I've been 100% faithful. I like Cardio Coach for audio workouts.

    Please don't get upset about my rant.

    It IS about immigration... because who has to learn to speak English in the United States? Immigrants!

    Please don't get upset about my rant.

    The anti-immigration BS in the form of "Speak English!" never ceases to amaze me. It seems we've forgotten that we're a country of immigrants. The fact that people who come here and have limited ability to speak English is nothing new; it's just that immigrants are the new political whipping...

    Should dying Manson murderer be released?

    Susan Atkins did a heinous thing, to be sure, but she tried, in her 40-ish years behind bars, to redeem herself in some way. I think that should count for something. At any rate, it doesn't make much difference if she's released or not. She's going to die, in either event.
