Another New Yorker here! I live in Greenpoint , Brooklyn and work in Manhattan. Been so busy this week hadn't had a chance to check the forums until tonight. So here's a great big HELLO to all the New Yorkers!!! I'm glad to know you're out there! :7 Susan

RE: KathyS! Hey Kathy H, if you live in nyc try paragon sports on 17th or 18th street and broadway. i got my bollinger collars there about a year or two ago. they might still have some in stock. i think they were about $10 at the time, but not positive. i also got the troy lite babell...

hey Wanda and others interested in the Troy Lite barbell; my mother just happens to live in Missouri and the last time i was home i decided to visit Fitness1st and get a Troy Lite barbell system. I am sooooooooo glad I did. I love my Troy Lite and even the spring collars are easy to change...

Another vote for the Troy Lite barbell set here. I love mine!!! :7

hi hotchick! correct me if i'm wrong, but i believe there are 2.2 pounds per 1 kilo, SO if i were you i would just jump up in one kilo increments. when i increase my poundage i usually jump up in 2-3 pound increments. for example 3 - 5 - 8 - 10 - 12 - 15 pound dumbells are what i use, so...

Hi and welcome to Cathe. I don't know about using your "Fanny Lifter" for the new vids coming out but I've been using my FL for the intensity series and it works fine. Of course I'm going to want to eventually get the cool new high step just so my equipment can be coordinated!!! :7 Cathe...

I second houndogs suggestion. those balls really stretch. try blowing it up some more. i had the same reaction when i first blew my ball up, that it was too small. then i measured it and it was! i hadn't "finished" blowing it up. :-) hth susan

Will the price of the High Step increase after the presale? How long will this presale last? Or is this the final price? SNM, thanks for being instrumental in bringing this product to market for us. Can't wait for the new tapes!!! susan

Daisy, I think the suggestion of the classics or any of the older tapes is a good one. I've been doing Cathe strength tapes for about a year but just started her cardio in January. I started out with Step Heat, Power Max, and Step Jam. All older step tapes where she tends to repeat the...

Hi Garth, I too enjoy reading your posts! They are so descriptive and funny and remind us all of where we've been, before! Your Penne and Squash recipe sounds amazing!!! :D I now not only check your posts to see what you' ve written but also to see if you've included a new recipe...

Hi Angela, Don't really have an answer regarding the intensity question BUT MIC can easily be split into two workouts, Hi / Lo one day, step the next day. For example something like this: Day 1– IMax1 Day 2 – MIC Hi / Lo + a strength workout (if your feelin strong) Day 3 – MIC Step...

Hi Kristie, try asking your question in customer service section of cathe's web site. i've always gotten a prompt response when doing so myself. here's the link: http://www.cathe.com/customer_service.htm HTH :-) Susan

i grind about 2 tblspns in my blender and then just add a combo of juices. usually always cranberry , and sometimes a medley of, papaya, orange, banana, whatever. i blend it all together and it makes a sort of thick juice drink. i chug it in one swig! it's great. :9 HTH Susan

I have a Polar and love it. I don't remember the model number but I do know it calculates calories burned for that workout, which is a real motivator. I got mine about 2 years ago and it's still going strong. I think they have new models out now with more bells and whistles for the same price. I...

I think Clare's advice is right on. I've been doing Cathe for about 9 months now and I'm afraid to buy the Terminator, but am itching to buy the Pyramids. From what I understand of the Terminator it's supper tough. I just recently purchased the Imax 1, Rhythmic Step, MIC DVD and find it...

Carole, Where is the Cupcake Cafe? I too live in NYC, well Brooklyn, but am in the city all the time. I don't really need one of those delicious sounding cakes / cupcakes, but it's always good to know where those resources are for special occasions, right? ;-) It's also great to know...

Hi Nancy! I'm a Cathe-ite in NYC too!!! Well Brooklyn, but close enough. How exciting to find out there is a teeny tiny little community of "us" right here in the Big Apple :7 I don't really get lonely working out by myself, but I do get lonely not having anyone to discuss Cathe workouts...

RE: Susan! :-) WOW, Debbie, thanks for such a great and thorough explanation! This forum and the people on it are just the best. Susan

Hi Chris! Not Cathe here, but curious, what does ACL stand for? Thanks! susan

Hi Normandy, I have a 1/2 inch thick dense foam or maybe it's rubber mat by Harbinger. It feels like one of those sticky yoga mats but it's a lot thicker. I remember I didn't pay more than $20 bucks for it maybe $18 or so BUT I'm not sure where I got it. :-( I do remember it was one of...
