    Legs and butt

    Hi again, Here's what I did that I thought helped me. I just tried things that worked for me and stuck with it. Believe me I have a lot of times that I do fall off the wagon and I end up working twice as hard to get back on. First, I did Cathe's January 2007 (I didn't have CTX Kickbox so I...

    Legs and butt

    Hi elle, I saw your post, and have had the same problem areas myself. I am not as tall as you are though - I'm only 5'4" and store my fat in my lower body. One thing that did help me is doing Cathe's lower body rotations using Gym Styles, PLB, and B&G. My thighs have gotten really strong...

    Cathe and Staff have yet again delivered a superior product. I got so excited while watching the clips and all I could think of was "OMG I'm going to have so much fun doing these!" I am beyond excited right now. The step moves seem to have something for everyone - dancey and athletic drills...

    star anise

    Hi, I have seen it sold in our local grocery stores. If you have Albertsons where you live, they'll have it. It's not where the bottled spices are. It's usually in a plastic bag with all the other spices that are in plastic bags. Like someone said, it is shaped just like a star and has a...

    Power turning squats

    I love to do these, but with my bad knee I have been trying to go easy on them. I did do half of it in IMAX2 today though, and the only thing that I notice that I do is to jump while equally pushing on both feet and using my core and upper body at the same time. When my right foot is on the...

    Morning exercisers

    Hi Nan, I used to be a morning person in my younger days, and then after having kids I became more of an evening person. About 2 years ago, I started going to bed at 10 pm to get up at 6 am to exercise for an hour before the kids get up. I don't remember it being a hard transition - I just...

    Cathe or anyone - which barbell do you recommend?

    Hi Saundra, I'm glad my input helped. I just want to make a correction. I paid $39.99 + tax for my weight set (US Weight 100 lb. Traditional Weight Set), not the $19.99 I mentioned in my earlier post. As SNM mentioned the 55 lb. set is for $19.99. Sorry about that.

    hi anyone from uk buying dvds and getting customs chargers?

    RE: Buying a step/ high step in the UK Hi, If you're willing to ship the items with your other household goods, I would recommend buying the step and high step from the Sport Chalet store (if you have one where you're at). At the time I bought mine, they were the only store who carried it...

    Cathe or anyone - which barbell do you recommend?

    I also bought my barbell from Wal-Mart early this year when I happened to be there and saw how cheap it was. SNM is right about the brand name (US Weight), and I think I paid $19.99 + tax (can't remember the exact price, but I knew it was a steal at the time). The plates are made of sturdy...

    I am so excited!!!!!

    Okay, you're not even going to believe this. "Get Ripped 1000" is the same video I bought from Amazon. I totally agree with everything you said about it. My husband even made a comment that I wasn't breaking a sweat when I did it. I did BM2 today to start the August '07 rotation and I had to...

    I am so excited!!!!!

    Hi, I just saw your response to my post and read your post too. How funny is that, we posted practically the same comments on the same day. I also bought one of Jari Love's videos from Amazon prior to discovering Cathe. I was so bored with it on the 1st try. I couldn't believe I wasted my...

    Thank you Cathe and Cathe.com/SNM

    WOW!!! As I read the blog everyday I am just blown away over and over by how much you have kept us in mind for these videos. The premixes on the 4-day split are phenomenal (I am very thrilled to have preordered). Once again, just as everyone have said, you have gone above and beyond to...

    Bare Escentuals convert -- WOW!

    Oh my gosh! I love BE too. I've had problems with breakouts after high school and into adulthood, especially when using makeup. I bought my starter kit at an ULTA store and even sleep with it on my face when I'm really tired. My face actually looks better when I wake up the next day (not so...

    Buying 4 Day split / should I buy B&G ?

    I agree. Every time I do B&G I have DBDOMS for a couple of days. This DVD is definitely a must-have, and I'm so glad it was my 1st Cathe DVD purchase.

    In need of advice on a step DVD to begin with.............

    I know you mentioned you're an advanced exerciser, but maybe you could try the Basic Step (mine came with my step). I was so gungho in getting into step that I actually started out with Low Max and Step Blast from FitTv (bad move on my part since I am also choreography-challenged). I was so...

    OH My Bod is now Up with Cathe!

    In Oh My Bod's website, it is mentioned that most of the tops are lined or have a shelf bra. The scoop neck and the cap sleeve for the Cathe line is not lined so that a sports bra or cami top can be worn underneath. This info. is shown under the sizing chart tab. For those who ordered...

    Cathe - slight differences in your pictures

    Hi Cathe, Thank you for sharing all that info. with us. Truly appreciated. I don't think you should feel embarassed about sharing. I also noticed the difference in your look the first time the 4-day split blog pics went up. My first thought was "WOW! She's over 40 and she looks like...
