    Is this enough?

    OK - so I'm basically doing a body blast rotation...rotating through the 6 workouts in a week. By itself, is this enough cardio or do I need to add more for weight loss? I look forward to your thoughts... Thanks, Amy

    Birth control pills

    I recently went off because I had screwed up and things were all messed up. It's only been one month, but my body actually did very well - right on schedule all by itself and I didn't notice the HORRIFIC PMS that I've been having...though it was still noticable. I've had possibly a little more...

    Starting weights?

    Hi all, I am going to do Push Pull or Supersets tonight - any suggestions for which to start with? Does it matter??? I think I'll save L&G for this weekend... I know Cathe uses somewhat heavy weights...should I start off with no weights - or just use like 3-5-8 pounders (this is what I...

    Rhythmic Step section 3

    I just did the FitTV version of this today...and the footwork was major challenging, but I'm not sure if the section you are referring to was cut...I wasn't really counting sections. There would be combos that all I would get is the basic step transition move...it was crazy - but it got...

    scale junkie

    OK I apologize for so many posts asking for help tonight...but I am taking careful notes and appreciate all of your input thus far as I develop my rotation. Now the worry starts in about the scale. I know it's a horrible measure of success...but since I have so much to lose (~30 pounds) is is...

    Is a goal of 6x/week too much?

    I know this is probably a stupid question, but do circuit workouts include weights with them? So would these include things like the CTX or Timesaver? Can you give examples of some Cathe workoouts that are circuit style? Also, it has not been 6 months - more like 3 since I have worked out...

    Is a goal of 6x/week too much?

    I appreciate the feedback earlier on getting started again. As I'm sitting here with my "fat-pants" feeling a little snug...I'm feeling real motivated to get working out again - and back to following weight watchers. I am trying to get myself back in the swing of things...and I would like to...

    best way to form a habit?

    I have tried in the past - somewhat successfully - to get myself into an exercise routine. I felt better - loved the feeling of accomplishment from having worked out regularly - loved the feeling of how my body was changing...loved my hubby calling me his "buff bride", etc. Problem being that...

    Suggestions?

    Marla, Thanks!!! I too have spent time on the elliptical reviewing notes for exams... It works - but I really love Cathe's workouts. I guess I have to sacrifice when needed! The workouts I have are Body Blast, Timesaver, CTX and some misc ones that I've taped off of FitTV. I have...

    Suggestions?

    Marla, Thanks for the tips...I have no kids - just dogs! They are pretty demanding though as I'm sure you know! ;) I wonder if I try to do it after school and make it a "do not pass go" type of thing where I just put my clothes on and go directly down to workout... That of course requires...

    Substitution suggestions?

    I want to try one of the fat loss rotations, but I don't have all of the videos that are used. Can anyone suggest alternates? I have the Body Blast, CTX, Timesaver, Imax2, Cardio & Weights, LoMax, Rhythmic Step and the Pyramids available to me (and whatever is on FitTV!) Here are the...

    Suggestions?

    Hi all, I am back again...I've been so busy with school, work and home life that my workouts have taken a complete back seat. I know that there are so many of you out there with full schedules who manage to fit in time to workout - and I'd love to hear how you accomplish it! I have had no...

    Incorporating body for life with Cathe

    OK...I have looked at the BFL program in the past, and I really like the principles of stoking the metabolism with small meals and eating more cleanly. My question is how do you incorate the exercise portion with Cathe? Do you think I would get good results focusing on the BFL eating portion...

    Weight loss supplement?

    OK...so I've been REALLY bad for several weeks and I need to get back into a routine. I am going to be trying to get pregnant probably around fall, and I really want to get myself into good shape to be able to handle the pregnancy better. While looking at the GNC site for a prenatal vitamin, I...

    Fit TV?

    Am I correct in seeing that LoMax, StretchMax and Core Max are now on Fit TV? It looks like they broke up the core and Stretch Max into 3 segments. Has anyone watched them - and is this what they did? Thanks Amy

    What's your "diet"

    Best way to get started?

    Hi all, I've done Cathe's workouts in the past, and I LOVE them. I've taken about the last 4 weeks off and am trying to get back into it. I can't believe that the scale says I've only gained 2 pounds, cause my belly feels so much flabbier and I feel so out of shape! Not that I was in...
