Another thought During the Olympics, there was a commercial airing all the time where they showed athletes working out. Do you remember it? It starts with a woman doing ab crunches and counting out the 365th rep and then goes on to show various athletes performing tough reps ("24," "7") I...

Pam -- You're down TWO MORE? Wow! You are on a roll, woman. Your sudden sprint here is very motivating to me. I'm feeling very sluggish due to an irregular workout schedule (lots of travel and now 2 weeks of being sick ...) But your success reminds me that I should try and concentrate on...

Any candy corn? So enough about the workouts already! Did Cathe and SNM provide their usual wonderful snacks? Red Twizzlers? Candy bars? Oh, yeah and I think there are usually a few apples too ... I missed all the Cathe Cam stuff, so it's great to "hear" all your voices. All this talk of...

Have a ball, everyone! Wish I could be with you!

You got it, Kathy He's a boy all right! A snake- and bug-loving, long legged, crooked smile, big eared, cowlicked almost 6-year old BOY!!!! With one very loose tooth! The Tooth Fairy is on pins and needles, waiting for her first pick-up. And I can only imagine what your 5th grader will...

So happy for you, Camille That is great news. I wish I were on the trip and could give you a big hug and treat you like the mother-to-be that you are. I remember all too well that feeling like it wasn't really real. We tried for 2 1/2 years and when the doctor's office confirmed my pregnancy...

Nicely said, Kathy I think we do take for granted all the wonderful, personalized service we get here. If you put a monetary value on it, believe me, we are getting our money's worth tenfold on any video or DVD we have ever ordered. I also feel badly for SNM in this business. They are...

Thanks, Cleda It feels nice to be missed. I sure will miss you guys. I hope your pre-Cathe week is back on track and that ole Colleen gets her butt to the club to give you the kind of classes you deserve! I'm still sick -- so sick I haven't done a cardio workout in 7 days! I did start back...

It was an all Cathe week LAST EDITED ON Oct-22-00 AT 04:29PM (Est)[p]That's right, nothing but Cathe. Actually, I did practically nothing at all. Here's my week: Mon. & Tues.- On business travel, brutal hours, no time to work out despite wonderful running trails right outside my hotel door...

Me too! I want to watch too! Let us know. Wish I could be there, but I can't :-(, so this will be the next best thing. Daphne

Hey, Susan, I echo what everyone else already said -- missing one day is no big deal. So you work out the next day instead and you're right back on track. It all comes out in the wash. (Whatever the heck that means ... guess it shows that I'm not too domestically gifted, huh?) You already...

I might try that, Erica I have to read 5 or 6 newspapers every morning when I get to work. I skim as much as possible, but certain headlines really stick with me, especially news stories involving children. It is just too much for me to imagine what some people have to go through in their...

I love LOTS of videos Cathe rules in the class of intense workouts: great strength training, great step and great kickboxing. In my opinion, there are a few other instructors as talented as Cathe -- although nobody delivers the killer intensity of Cathe's tapes, some come pretty darned close...

Hi Elizabeth! It's been about 10 years since my last visit to San Francisco and my knowledge of the geography is pretty weak. But if you're looking for plush and price is "of little concern" I can highly recommend the hotel where we'll be staying on this trip. It's the Fairmont on Nob Hill...

Back to the fold Well, I haven't checked in over here for a while -- but I've been doing an awful LOT of Cathe tapes lately, so I figured I should register my approval! Here goes: Monday -- Cardio and Abs All Step cardio + Step Heaven stage 1 & c/down + All Step abs Tuesday -- Strength...

I'm glad it works for you And you didn't sound mean or angry at all! Most people use the technique that you describe and I've heard them say that it really helps them. But for some reason, it has the opposite effect on me: I just feel a lot of tension in my neck and shoulders and I feel kind...

RE: I told you to stay away from the Power Pilates OMG, I didn't know there WAS such a thing, Paula. Now if they offered plyometric Pilates, I'd be in heaven. Imagine what those roll-ups would be like if performed plyometrically. Tammy, happy birthday to your little boy. We have lots of...

Saturday Night Fever oooh, ooh, ooh, ooh stayin' alive, stayin alive. I'm wide awake after spending an hour separating little Lego machines. (It's a 5-year old boy thing, don't ask.) And Norm fell asleep watching the Olympics at 9:15. Romance is alive and well in Fairfax Station tonight ...

Or a punching bag Visualizing a person doesn't work well for me -- I end up feeling really ANGRY and MEAN. So if there's anyone else out there who feels that way, I wanted to mention an alternative. I pretend that I'm trying to move a heavy, heavy punching bag. I have to put all my body...

I want my OLD name back! I used to be Daphne M and now I have to sign on as DaphneM, because there is ALREADY a Daphne M -- but it's ME!!! It won't let me be me! Please excuse me for whining. I'm tired, it's been a long week and I just can't cope with one more thing. And now I feel bad...
