    Ideas for Swimming HIIT

    Yeah, Moose Quitar, you really discovery how much surface area resistance your back creates when you do the flutter kicks in this position. I really like it because of this, and because you recruit the glutes and the top of the hamstrings a little more than in the traditional prone position...

    Ideas for Swimming HIIT

    In addition to Sandra's suggestions, also intersperse traditional swimming laps with kickboard laps in which you do a hard, fast prone flutter kick for at least one length or a complete lap. The legs, especially the quads (which include the hip flexors) and hams / glutes work tremendously hard...

    Hey AquaJock!

    Hi, Cher! Actually, I lost almost all of my scalp hair back in the winter of 2003 during a rolling bout with alopecia (first time in my life; go figure), and I got so used to the clean, easy bald look that I have kept my head shaved since then. Alopecia has a tendency to come and go at will...

    Top five most intense cardio dvds?

    Hmmmmmmmmm . . . do you have a stationary bike, elliptical or treadmill in your home workout environment? If so, you could jump on any of these and do about a minute's work at a comfortable (not zzzzzzzzzz and not nosebleed) pace, then jump off and do your intervals. OR, you could set up your...

    Top five most intense cardio dvds?

    In addition to that (if I do say so myself), access my recent post "A-Jock's Famous Track Workout For The Unrunner", which describes a do-it-yourself workout formatting system that can utilize a running track (indoor or outdoor) or walking path. I'll see if I can link it here on this thread...

    Swimmers/Swim Caps

    My personal preference is for the Tyr brand of swimsuits. Kiefer always has a "grab bag" selection, where you kind of take a pig in a poke: you order a "grab bag" suit for a discount (the discount is less if you specify the brand, say Tyr or Speedo), and they send you whatever style they're...

    Top five most intense cardio dvds?

    I-Max 3 Drill Max The "Gauntlet" workout from the Terminator disc Also, if you're looking at non-Cathe workouts, check out Amy Bento's "A-Team Boot Camp" from (I think) 2006. I have several Amy releases strictly for their intensity blasts (am a complete choreo klutz), and A-Team Boot Camp's...

    TOY STORY 3 IS AWESOME

    ITA!! DH and I saw it this past Sunday, and we deliberately went to the regular-format screen rather than screwing around with 3D. I was entertained, frightened in a couple of spots, thought-provoked and deeply moved. Highly, highly recommended. A-Jock

    A-Jock's Famous Track Workout for the Unrunner

    Hi, Bitmover! No, I've never visited bodyrock.tv, although I've heard of it. I'm actually getting far more into designing my own land workouts just from my own bald head from the library of moves our dear Cathe has supplied me with that I don't have much time anymore to check out anyone else's...

    Bob Harper new dvds?

    One possible caveat about ordering from Bob Harper's site: there was some chatter over on the VF forum that, shortly after customers succeeded in getting their orders through, they started getting suspicious, possibly phishing calls from entities purporting to "verify their order information"...

    C'mon let's work!

    Great minds think alike, Miss Cathe! I too did a sweat-drenched step routine in which HSTA step blasts, LIC step blasts and Step Blast . . . well, step blasts were prominently featured, followed up with an ab mish-mosh of CTX-Kickbox planks (prone and supine) and Cardio / Weights floor abs...

    Which Weight lifting DVD's Do I Start With?

    OP, from what you've described with your depth of knowledge about weightlifting and your current weightloads, IMHO the STS series would be the best. Yes, it is pricier than a lot of other series including Cathe's earlier productions; however, you used to pay for training sessions, and with STS...
