    Workout temperature

    Thanks everybody. It sounds like I'm working out in a normal temperature range, so I'm going to keep doing it. I turn the heat down in the winter and the air up in the summer for workouts, so I figure the savings in the winter makes up for the extra air conditioning in the warmer months. My son...

    Workout temperature

    The weather has been getting a bit warmer where I live and I get really hot during my workouts. So, It's still pretty cool in the mornings though. It's definitely not air conditioner season here yet. We actually had a bit of snow a week ago. I work out in my living room and when I started going...

    Total body Band

    You might not have to throw it out. If you haven't thrown it away yet, try a cleaner. They are just a DVD that you insert and run and it cleans your player for you. I haven't bought one for years, but I know mine cost less than $10.

    Active Older Adult Workouts

    I'm pretty old school (love my DVDs), so I don't have CatheLive. I'm going to check out the one you mentioned on YouTube. Thanks! :)

    Active Older Adult Workouts

    Hee, hee, hee, Cathe see how greedy we are? We don't even have STS 2.0 yet, and we're already asking for more. lol I'm sure I speak for everybody when I say that we appreciate all that you do. I'm not sure that I'm ready to admit that I'm aging... but I will say that my body talks to me more...

    Cathe's STS 2.0 No Equipment Abs Workout

    Would absolutely love to see Al in some of your stretch/flexibility videos in the future. My husband will do the short stretches that you end your workouts with, but I can't get him to do extended stretches. To top it off, he's involved in a sport and doesn't bother to stretch before or after...

    Cathe's STS 2.0 No Equipment Abs Workout

    I like Al. He's also what motivated my husband to try your workouts. Once he saw there were men in some of them, he gave it shot. Now, he's hooked. He hasn't found any other instructor that works him as hard or helps him get good results. I kept telling him that real workouts are for everybody...

    Workout cards?

    Sheffield, I wish I could help you, but I've never printed them. There are plenty of people on here that will be able to offer suggestions. If someone doesn't answer tomorrow, though, you might want to start a new thread. With all of the excitement over the new series, your question might get...

    Cathe's STS 2.0 No Equipment Abs Workout

    Hmmm, I'm going to have to try those bear crawl climbers when my husband isn't home. Not sure I want him laughing at me when I tip over attempting to do them. lol

    Cathe's STS 2.0 Standing Abs: Metabolic Core Warm Up

    Yes! This is perfect. Saturdays are my recovery day. I do a short 10-15 min. light cardio (usually a walking video) followed by a core workout. I then wrap up with a nice 20 minute stretch. On Tuesdays and Thursdays (my strength training days), I do my "hard core" work, but I've been wanting...

    Premenopause

    Thank you! I didn't realize the reason for twice a day. I put mine on in the morning, so I'm not likely to see much difference in my insomnia without the evening application. The reason I did it only once a day is that I have a LOT of allergies and reactions to meds. Like your mom, I was unable...

    Premenopause

    I received mine about a week ago, and I'd learned through my research that I needed to apply it to different places, so I've been doing that. I want to thank you for your post about it. I'm hoping it helps with the stuff that exercise and nutrition aren't dealing with. I knew I was supposed to...

    Workout Series for Menopause/Post Menopause (Based on Cathe's advice in her recent article)

    Very funny! Just you wait. I have one piece of advice for your future... cotton. Cotton shirts, undies, and bedding. My husband wasn't too happy with the charge card bill when I replaced all of our bedding with cotton, but he thanked me after the first night. Cotton saved him from having to...

    Premenopause

    I made a huge difference by changing my diet. I thought I'd been eating healthy (FDA recommended diet), but I had no energy as I got older. We changed to a clean eating dietary lifestyle in order to try to help my husband's health. It worked. I ate the same way, just because there was no reason...

    Premix times

    Maybe do Express#1 for UB1/UB2 with no bands? It looks like taking the bands out would cut about 20 min. off of UB1 and 8 min. off of UB2. That would make UB1's Express #1 about 25 min. long or Express #2 (2 sets) 33 min. long with UB2's Express #1 running around 33-34 min. long. Just a...

    Debinmi, you're my hero! Thanks Cathe and administration too. I've been waiting and waiting for this info. Now, I'm going to be planning and planning. It will keep me busy until STS 2.0 arrives. :cool:
