    Standing legs vs floor legs

    YAY!!! I'm not the odd one out!! Over the years, I swear there has been no progression with floor work. I find the barre easier than floor, but not easy by any stretch. I probably just need to add in extra floor work. OW!!!! Nan

    Slide N Glide discs that don't slide well

    Yup, furniture polish or a little spray oil or PAM, then wipe them off with a paper towel. Watch out, you'll go DEEP!!!! :p:):eek: Nan

    Standing legs vs floor legs

    I can squat, lunge, plyo, and all that jazz til the cows come home, with heavy weights. However, eight reps into any floor work with no or just 2lb ankle weights and I'm begging for mercy. Barre work, too. What gives? What am I missing here, besides that I obviously need to do more floor...

    Cathe workouts you HAVE NOT tried

    I think the only ones I don't have are Body Fusion, Total Body Stretching and Ab Hits. Plus, the really early stuff (Wedding video and Step in Motions) My collection's pretty well rounded. :p:):o:o:p:eek: Nan

    Music in crossfire and to the max

    I know one of the newsletters had a link, but if you search "Cathe" in the Itunes store, Intensity and High Reps' music comes up. I don't see anything for TTM and CF. Are you looking for the Cathe version, or the originals? One of the songs is Pink's Raise Your Glass. But that's all I can...

    Ab work

    Me, too!!! If I have to switch discs, then abs aren't getting done. I hate ab work, so that gives me an excuse to skip it. Plus, then you have workout/cool down/stretch on the first disc then after you're completely done, have to stick in another disc for abs. Bleh. Nan

    Horizontal Conditioning Bootcamp.....Wowzers!

    I just tried this the other day, and can't say I like it too much. To copy/paste my FB rant..... Horizontal Bootcamp - first person to message me with $10 can have it. The good news is it cured the headache, probably because I was so damn bored the headache couldn't take it anymore...

    Giving Blood and Exercising

    I donate regularly as well. I think it's every 8 weeks that they call. I try to get my workout for the day in before I go, so I'm good for that day. I normally go on Saturday morning, which is usually a cardio day for me, so lifting isn't really a worry. I normally go from there to the...

    What size do u consider to be skinny?

    I guess for me the difference is "emaciated skinny" Madonna, some supermodels, that spice girls chick married to David Beckham, and "fit skinny" or "muscular skinny" where Cathe would fall. If you've got skin hanging off your bones - ew!!!! If it's muscle I'm seeing - it's good. Nan

    Upcoming new release: Insanity The Asylum Volume 2

    Loved Insanity!! Asylum was kinda *meh* I only really liked GameDay. Vertical Plyo was OK. I'd have to see clips of Asylum 2 before I jumped in. Nan

    Skin Tag

    Clear nail polish over and over again on a daily basis. Tie it off with a piece of string or dental floss very tightly. It'll turn black and fall off. Ew, I know. I've heard Vick's Vaporub works, but it didn't for me. Or, if it's little, sterilize a nail clipper or tweezers and clip or...

    anyone try coconut water?

    It's yicky. I think I tried the Zico. It tastes bad and has a weird texture to it. A little thicker/slimier than water. Ick! Ick!!! Ick!!!!!!!!! Couldn't finish the bottle. Nan

    jumping & plyo

    You have to keep at it. Bring your step down to just the top, I think that's 2 inches. Make sure when you jump you go down, then up. It's one fluid motion, down to bring power into your legs then push up. ARGHHHH UP!!!!!!!!!!!! If you start from a full stand you won't get nearly as high...

    excedrine

    I remember when I first found out!! ACK!!!!! The Target pharmacist said something about production. Broken bits the bottles, I think. It was a safety thing. I bought the Target version and it works good. THe husband of one of my coworkers works at CVS, so she always has their kind. It works...

    Pillow Advice Please!

    I've got a cool memory foam cluster pillow from Kohl's. Love it! Liked it so much that I bought hubby one, too. So now when I steal his pillow, I have 2 good ones! :p:p It's the one in the pale green and white box at Kohl's. I think they were $65 a piece,but I bought them when they were 40...

    Fifty Shades

    I read all three. Not great literature, but they were fun to read. Borrowed them from a coworker. Worth all the hype - probably not, there's plenty of other books like that at the library and bookstore. But good for the author if they make her successful. My aunt and cousin have a cupcake...
