    Help me cleanup my diet

    I am also not great with my diet, but for the crunchy cravings, try carrot sticks, green beans or some other vegetable that has a crunch to it. Seems to work for me. Good luck!

    Anyone Using Two Monitors at Work?

    I have been using two monitors at work for several years now and have never had any issues with neck pain. My monitors sit side by side very close to each other and I try to primarily use the bigger one that sits directly in front of me. Good luck! I hope your neck pain goes away.

    Pedal Power DVD Request!

    I suck at spinning too, but keep trying because I know it's a great workout. Don't give up, keep pushing. Personally, I enjoy the Ride DVD more than Cycle Max - I like the timer and the music. Funny that you mention you can pretty much keep up with all of the other DVDs because that is...

    Post back injury exercise

    I see no one had replied to your post. Last fall, I had back problems from lifting something too heavy for me. That was the same week I received the low impact series Cathe had just released. I watched all of the workouts one time and did a little bit of the Yoga Relax DVD. Slowly, I started...

    13 year old son, weights, and his father, uhoh!

    My son is 13 and I had talked to his doctor about him lifting weights because he is on the small side. She had mentioned once they are going though puberty that is when it is OK. Check with your sons doctor, but I do believe very light weights or Bands are fine for them at this age. I know my...

    Lost- the loss of one you love

    So sorry to hear of your loss. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Losing someone you love stinks. Try to have something good to focus on to help get you through this. It won't make the pain go away, but may help. Sherry

    the gym vs exercise vids

    I only workout at home. I have taken two spin classes at different gyms and wouldn't mind trying Zumba, but will not spend the money to have to drive somewhere to workout. That's just an excuse waiting to happen for me (especially when the weather is bad).

    STS Total Body

    Can anyone who also owns Supersets/Push Pull tell me if STS Total Body is different enough it would also be worth investing in? I already have SS/PP. When I watched the clip for STS Total Body a lot of it looked similar, but I don't think I can really rule it out solely based on the clip.

    Spinning DVDs- More in the future?

    I just got a spin bike tonight and I am so excited! I had been looking at new ones, but also was checking Craigslist. I was able to find an older Star Trac bike for $250. Now I am even more excited to get the new series! Earlier today I found myself thinking about spinning DVDs and hoping...

    Distended stomach - Cathe newsletter

    I have the same issue, but have always just blamed it on eating too much. The article in the newsletter has me wondering now if it's more than that.

    Bike Trainer vs Spin Bike for Cycle Max

    JT - I've been trying to figure out the same thing and had asked a very similar question on another forum I am on. A couple of people replied they like their trainers, but they are not very stable and when someone is spinning they are likely standing up a lot and you may feel like you are going...

    Any chance you can share what kind of spin bike you have?

    Top Reasons Why I love Cathe's Workouts!

    I love Cathe's DVDs because: 1. Sometimes when I'm about ready to give up, she says "four more" and I think I can do that many more - almost done. 2. She is very motivating. 3. Cathe never talks about how great she looks. 4. Very challenging workouts.

    Has anyone used Soft Paws/Claws for their cat? I'm desperate for a solution.

    I have used them before and they really did not stay on my cat for very long - not even a whole day! I have two cats now and find trimming the claws works very well. They just aren't sharp enough to dig into much. Get a good pair of nail scissors from either a pet store or your vet (I got...

    If you work in an office...........

    I used a ball instead of a chair at my desk a few years ago. I was only working about 5 hours a day and did use it all day when I was at my desk. In the beginning, I thought it was helping with posture and making me not sit with my legs crossed. After a while, I was able to sit on it with the...

    Dear Cathe, would you ever consider doing a cycling video?

    I would either purchase a spin bike or at least one of those things you can mount an outdoor bike on if you did a cycling video. I certainly wouldn't do it for any other instructor, but you are a great motivator. I find it difficult to turn you off - the others get the off button pretty quickly!!
