RWH is really good, just be aware the lifting workouts move very quickly, so you may have to lower your weight and don't feel bad about it compared to STS.

I voted for Rock m Sock m off the ICE series, and I would have voted for Kick Punch Crunch as a very close second. ICE gets a little more favoritism because of the music and it moves so quickly, plus its an easy workout to tack on after lifting weights.

The music in Strong and Sweaty's Cardio Slam is turning out to be my favorite music that Cathe has ever done for cardio-based workouts. Starting with the warm up all the way through to the cool down, love it. Not to mention, I'm hooked on this workout and it transitions really well to my...

Thinking of you, I recently have this same issue and my heart goes out to you. This is so difficult and no words can adequately help in this situation, only love and acceptance. Be strong, he would want this.

I don't know if *rolling* an ankle counts as a sprained ankle, I never went to the doc. I can say I was in complete agony. This happened indoors doing an Insanity workout (with shoes designed for cardio). My ankle was the size of a light post and could put zero weight on it for days. I bought...

Isn't RWH high rep lifting? I forget because I haven't done it in a while, but I do remember that I had to move and there was definite cardio factor involved. It just works better for you, I'd stick with that until you evolve out of it and want to try something new.

Because the hormone cortisol is released by the adrenal glands, in its response to stress (which can be mental, physical, nutritional, etc.). Adrenal burnout in simpler terms is why Vitamin C is crucial, because it helps the adrenal glands and does a zillion more processes in the body. Your...

This is tough, not sure if there is *one* answer, because in comparison I'm in my 50's, 5'9 and I complete a full round of STS twice if not three times a year. I have a solid base of muscle, and my body is just plain adapted to this training. However, I also get quite a bit of cardio in with...

Isn't that funny how ex-smokers hate the smell? I believe it's our 3 trillion+ cells in our microbiome collectively signalling us to back off or you will vomit.

Just saying congratulations is weak-sauce considering what an accomplishment that is! I am an ex-smoker way back in the day and I know how difficult it was for me after several attempts. The only thing that worked permanently was getting pregnant my first time. You should get yourself more...

This is such great advice! Especially getting 10-15 minutes of sun around mid-day which is when the least damaging rays to skin are (contrary to what you are told). The most beneficial rays for Vitamin D sulfate production are UVB rays, and getting 10-12 minutes is enough to turn your skin...

That is me! My front delts are over developed from years of riding. I don't think I'll ever be able to even them out, considering I use 20 pounds for a lateral raise and can barely use 12 pounds for rear delts. The foam roller YouTube, she says it brilliantly..."that line of pain"...

You handle those *controversies* amazingly well! My problem is I speak stream of conscience and that doesn't help (especially after a martini). Anyway, you are one of those people I will stop and read every time, without being too gushy, a voice of reason.

I bought a Contour L5 from Teeter. http://teeter.com/Contour-L5-Ltd.html Did a lot of research on several manufacturers and settled on this one because of its build and guarantee. They have quite a few models also. I chose the Contour because its very easy to get in and out of. If you have...

That is one of my favorite workouts, Total Body TriSets.

Ya, thing is it will take time, so keep on a consistent schedule and be happy with smaller progressions. I can't stress enough that your diet is very important when it comes to healing. Higher dose of pure vitamin c powder (must be GMO free) plus turmeric and collagen (Great Lakes) (also...

You are one of those super-sharp women I was referring to (seriously). Absolutely, I agree that VF is a great place for support (like on this community). VF surely is a go-to place if you want to expand your dvd collection and learn about different instructors. I've come across very kind...

I have had fibroids, they are common and will shrink off once past menopause. You didn't say if you were bleeding excessively from them, which is a concern (like I had). Whatever you do, don't concede to having your gallbladder removed because of gallbladder stones or a polyp, it is a vital...

You aren't missing much. I don't want to be pissy about it, but I've been threatened to be banned a few times back in the day because I posted on threads about Cathe that rattled others, although in my head they were warranted. Definitely a pecking order on that site, with a leadership sword...

I am in awe of you, seriously! I sent a friend a link to this, because its just such great advice. Thank you.
