Yes, I don't get the "looks" like I used to in my say 20's, but I think that's because by our age now (I'm 50), we aren't either "on the market" or we're just everyday people. I don't spend my time looking at alot of people either..unless they're weird! haha. Usually, I get noticed more (i.e...

Procrastination is depressing, isn't it? Right now, I'm looking into starting a couple of projects at work and I'm procrastinating because the tasks are daunting, but I finally started it today because the new year is coming and my boss and I are discussing MY goals for 2013 so that makes me...

I'm trying to lose weight, and also liked the fact I didnt need to lift weights:) so I did Imax3, Athletic Step, Cross Fire today - yikes! LIC LIS (all step!) Anything cardio!! Tomorrow, I may need to lay on my floor and pass out! I would say do whatever feels good. I'm looking forward to...

Well, I decided I needed some good ole' STS structure. This program always gives me what I need to really get "structured". I always work out, no problem, have all Cathe dvds (just about;)) and watch what I eat. However.....since I turned 50, something has happened to my body and I DON'T...

You might want to post this in Ask Cathe forum.;)

Krista, I'm just like you. I start doing good and think I can eat anything. Well, you can for a while before it catches up with you. I'm 50 and worked out forever mostly with Cathe. I love how I feel when I'm done so just think of that. Plus I love to eat so...working out is a must!:cool...

You are too funny. You will get whatever sounds good until you have what you want..just like me and everyone else! I don't have some of the originals you mentioned but have IMAX 2 & 3. You can do those I think. Low impact circuit is one of my favorites and low max isn't complex choreography but...

My workouts post on Facebook - how do i stop that? Thanks in advance.

My husband has owned a carpet cleaning business for over 20 years - hot water extraction, truck-mounted unit. He normally recommends for a safe spot cleaner - a little detergent and water - either Dawn dishwashing liquid or like an ERA (non-bleach). You don't need alot of detergent because it...

I don't have Slow & Heavy series, but have Gym Style so don't feel the need. I don't have the early, early stuff, don't like Body Max (original) - got rid of it because it was too hard and too long!! Of course, it was on VHS so there weren't the magic premixes like today;) But, I have...

Definitely do all your one rep tests before starting STS all together. That makes your program all set up for you to do STS 1,2, and 3. I did mine over a couple of days. I tried to mix up the muscle groups so I wouldn't fatigue one too much. Just round up the numbers if you think that's a...

Rhonda - please give directions on how to find the Cathe group. I have been thinking of joining WW - and I'd like to find your group first. Thanks for doing This!

Hello! Use the Workout Manager Cathe has online - it's free! On a calendar day, click on it and then choose from drop down menu what you are doing. It will give you estimated calorie burn. Simple as that! I also bought a heart rate monitor which is SUPER AWESOME AND MOTIVATING! Only $50 or...

I just wanted to say that I love the music in both dvds. Very motivating - thanks Cathe.

Just wanted to post one last thing here about the "Muscles Not Firm" topic. It's a pretty simple point and that is when you are doing your weights, Cathe always says to "SQUEEZE" your muscle. I have found that if you really concentrate on that you will see more defined muscles. Whether it be...

Finally- someone that's just like me - but made it work with weight watchers. Interesting. I might sign up or get my daughter involved (who really needs it). I am going to cut alcohol out and also trim the calories every day to see how it goes. Your weight is definitely my goal weight...

Good thread - I see Cross Fit mentioned everywhere I turn. There is actually a place near me, but I don't think it's for me. With that being said, I do agree that you have to get the most out of your workouts, and give it 110% to get results. For me, usually more cardio will work. I did good...

It sure is nice to hear others have the same problem. Definitely not the answer by not working out because when I don't, I don't feel good and I start putting on weight. I have about 5 lbs. to lose, but it never budges. I just keep losing/gaining the same two lbs. I probably workout 25 of the...

Wow - what a timely post! I'm turning 50 in a few weeks and workout hard..I eat pretty healthy, but I'm beating myself up about anything I should not be putting in my mouth, etc. I, too, have been working out for years and try to figure out what works. I just did STS and while I usually don't...

;) I just finished up the last of my STS Meso 3 disks which included the squat rack series. Yay!:eek: Every time I went to my workout basement area (and was anticipating the heavy weights) I said "I lift things up and put them down" ...just like the Planet Fitness commercial where they...
