    Cathe, Intensity Series Problem (anyone else?)

    Well, I failed this morning. I tried doing a CIA- ten minutes into it, byebye, then another step tape and after 20 minutes, byebye. IMAX2 was calling me and I said to myself, "I'll just do intervals 2 and 9" - guess what, I started with Interval 2 and just kept going to interval 5, stopped the...

    Cathe, Intensity Series Problem (anyone else?)

    I am sitting here laughing...it's Sunday morning and yesterday I did IMAX Xtreme (my favorite) and I want to do it again today. All I want to do is the Terminator workouts. Fearing acute pain and injury, I have to psyche myself to do Christi or Franny or the Firm today, or else my sciatica...

    Piriformis Syndrome or sciatica

    Hi Kathy, Last year I had very bad sciatica down the right leg, and I could not walk without extreme pain going down that leg. I never take days off from work, and I had to actually take two days off. I thought I would never be able to even walk to the subway again. But I had to see...

    Posting? Lurking? Doing Cathe?

    Hi, I started with Cathe when I saw her video Step & Motion I in Collage. I was already exercising about seven years with Joanie Greggains, Kathy Smith, Gilad. When I first did S&MI, I was stunned at Cathe. I said to my hubby, "where in the world did she come from?" The workout was so much...

    Piraformis Syndrome? Maribeth..........

    Hi Susan, Sorry I am not Maribeth, but I have had that pain in the rear and down the right leg. My chiro diagnosed it as sciatica. It is hard to distinguish PS from Sciatica. It actually comes and goes and I have to stick with low impact. You can e-mail me at: [email protected] if...

    Cathe or SNM: Can the new workouts be modified?

    Hi, Can you let me know if I will be able to modify with low impact and lighter weights for all the new DVDs? I have all of Cathe's tapes, except S&H, and am a fan from the start. Since I am now nearing 57, I am looking for less impact, but I love Cathe's workouts. Are there a lot of power...

    carpal tunnel syndrome

    I am very upset: I am sure I have CTS - my wrists, fingers, sometimes forearms ache quite a bit and after doing pushups, it is worse. Anyone have experience with this, and what exercises are safe? I am going to switch to very light weights (5 lbs) and high reps for a while and give up the...
