    Really early morning workout

    I love to work out early in the morning. Hubby has been getting up by 3:30 to go walking before he leaves for work at 5:00 a.m. so I get up & do some extra stretching or yoga; once he leaves I pop in the workout for the day. I feel so energized and ready for work when I'm done. I do make sure to...

    To the Max-do you still get the afterburn effect if

    I with you on this one. I lowered my step height, & because I'm so clumsy, I do the the FFS off the end of the step and I really have to stay focused so I don't trip myself up. This week I tried the Less Impact premix & loved it. I too was a sweaty mess by the end of it. Gotta love it!

    step taps/power squats help!

    I'm right there with you on this one. While I didn't twist my ankle, I did fall & ended up with a nasty bruise, so I'm very cautious when I attempt these. I like your idea of tapping off the end of the step.

    Help, my body has shifted...menopause?

    I've enjoyed all the comments on this post. This is something I've been struggling with & I suspected it was the carbs but it's great to have confirmation. I'm 53 now & the weight is slowly creeping up & congregating around my mid section. i sort of lost focus on my diet. My goal is to get back...

    It's official--I've found the most complex step ever!

    This looks like fun but I think I would end up tripping & falling; just not coordinated enough. As it is, I've gotten some serious bruises from Cathe's step routines.

    planter fasicitis

    I've had it for awhile, since last summer and I've tried a variety of things like massage, night splint, stretching. Some days are better than others. The biggest difference is watching what types of shoes I wear. Certain shoes seem to aggravate it. I usually stretch in morning when I get up...

    Which Cathe DVD has the most complex choreography?

    I also have a hard time with Low Impact Challenge. I rarely reach for it because I've tripped several times trying to get through it so there's a dread factor there as well.

    Ankle Weights with Turbo Barre?

    Next time, I just might try with shoes on to see if that helps.

    Top 5 Hated Exercise Moves!

    1st on my list has to be fast feet shuffle; there's a dread factor because I'm not coordinated at all so I usually end up tripping, falling, etc. The last time I tried them, I fell, landed against a book shelf leaving a nasty looking bruise on my left arm that extended from my wrist to my elbow...

    I usually d0 45-60+ min M-F plus hubby and I try to walk 2-3 miles in the evening M-Th and a longer walk on Saturday; although it's hunting season so he's been gone on Saturday mornings, so I've added another workout then.
