    Best Pilates Dvd

    My favorite is 10 Minute Solution Quick Sculpt Pilates with Andrea Leigh Rogers. I also really like the 10 MS Pilates on the Ball with Lara Hudson.

    Cardio and strength training

    My cardio is treadmill interval 2x a week. I do 9 sets of walking at 4.5 mph for 1 min and running at 7.5-8 mph for 1.5 min - total time of 45 min. The other day is walking :)

    Cardio and strength training

    I'm trying to gain some muscle tone and I also add some cardio for weight loss. I've heard people say that if you're trying to build muscle cardio can interfere with your development, but I'm confused how much cardio is too much to hinder results. What kind of cardio do y'all like to...

    Butts & Guts floorwork

    I want to get the medium resistance Spri band for the floorwork in Butts and Guts, but I don't know if the weight would be appropriate. It is supposed to have 10 lbs of resistance, and Cathe uses 2.5 ankle weights. Is this too much or do you think this medium resistance band would be okay to use?

    Insulin resistance

    I think I may have insulin resistance because my underarms are slightly dark. I'm not diabetic (my blood sugar is good), but diabetes runs in my family. Does anyone have any suggestions on what kind of foods I should be eliminating? I don't eat sweets that much and I only eat whole grains...

    (Another) Clean Eating question

    I could suggest an alternative to luna bars: lara bars. I used to eat luna bars all the time, until I read they are basically candy bars. Plus there are some chocolate flavored lara bars :)

    Any dancers?

    I'm a beginning dancer and I've done Cathe videos in the past but am now working with pilates and yoga, etc to keep up my flexibility. A lot of dancers have said they don't do heavy weight work and it can make them less flexible...Do any of you agree with this? :confused:
