    overtraining with rank top rotation?

    quote: "overtraining with rank top" Oh my!! lol Perhaps a long soak in the washing machine... In all seriousness though, I did this one many moons ago and believe it or not, I felt more fatiqued from MIS and Leaner legs or whatever the all leg routine is. I think that because the upper...

    Adapting for a Hotel Room Workout?

    >What is "slim series"? It's Debbie Siebers' followup series to Slim in Six as seen on the infomercials or at the Beachbody.com web site. Her M.O. is light resistance and high reps.

    What are your reasons for preordering the new workouts?

    I pre-ordered because: I got the high step for Christmas and want more reasons to use it. I have never been disappointed in any Cathe workout I have purchased. I use my Cathe workouts a LOT and really get my monies' worth. The discount from pre-ordering is significantly more than I...

    Adapting for a Hotel Room Workout?

    I've taken Kick, Punch and Crunch with me on the road and except for the stability ball work at the end, it works very well in a cramped hotel room. For the "crunch" part of the workout, I just do my own version of the ab work. I find this to be the best of Body Blast in terms of portability...

    Ryka Shoes

    I'm a little torn about Ryka's. I absolutely LOVE my Evolution-E.T.S. model, which are alas worn out, but HATE my Stylus model that lie untouched except for rare occasions when I want a black shoe. I think the problem is the arch support I need for my rigid feet seems to be lacking in the...

    Pikes on the stability ball

    Brit-Josie, I saw a ball chair in the Fitball catalog that has a chair base (and back) to hold the ball in place--it looks more like a chair than a ball...so it may not be outside of your realm of possiblity after all. However, you wouldn't get all the stabilizing benefits so it might not be...

    Step Blast Combo #3 - Peg Leg Pivot

    You know what kills me is when I finally figure out that a "new" move is really an old move with a twist. The starburst is the exact same footwork as "over facing over" just with your hands waving around above your head and more of a diagonal direction. Once I knocked that into my skull, it...

    Just Did Super sets

    What is are the main muscles being worked with the woodchoppers on the ball? I assume it's abs but I must be doing something wrong because these seem waaaay too easy with 8 #'s and even 10 #'s that I used today. Is there a certain position on the ball that makes these more challenging? I...

    Flexibility and balance and more stability ball work please

    I'd like to see just for once a "kinder, gentler" Cathe workout that focuses on flexibility and balance. And, if you could incorporate the stability ball, medicine ball and/or body bar that would be even better. Thanks, Cathe.

    Timesaver Rotation?

    If you believe you can get all your cardio needs in 30 minutes (which Body for Life promotes), then yes. The majority of these workouts is cardio--usually 30 min, except for #5 which is mostly leg strength and endurance work. If there is any skimping, it's on the weights work. You pretty much...

    Timesaver Rotation?

    I know this is probably the "well, duh!" answer, but I've just been doing them back to back in their designated order, kind of like CTX. I don't hit the same body parts any 2 days in a row, except maybe abs, and the aerobics are suitably varied. As is, it's a nice "light" week.

    cutsie Cathe tales

    Those are just the cutest stories!! I gather both are girls? My oldest son was 5 or 6 when he overheard me working out to one of my many Cathe workouts. He marched over and said, "Mom, I don't like the way she is talking to you!" So, it's kind of the running joke for any of my guys (my...

    Look Great in Eight Rotation

    Kathy, love your new pics. As I have said before, you have legs that are to die for. Congrats on the bodyfat stats! My interest is peaked about this rotation but since I don't have a gym membership, I'll be looking for creative uses of Cathe (and other) home workouts. I know I can do one...
