    Ballroom dancing?

    Those sound like some good basic shoes. I hope they work well for you. The modern dance shoes I wear are similar to ballet slippers, but they have little padding, so I get these little things called Dance Paws that are padded and fit over the ball of the foot for extra padding. I can do 16...

    young girls and a cleanser

    I have had problem skin all my life, even more so as an adult. It finally took two rounds of accutane to get it under control. Recently, I have seen unwanted changes in my skin, a lot of it is age-related, and from sun damage. Also, it was starting to break out again. ACCKKK! I don't want...

    Ballroom dancing?

    I have been ballroom/swing dancing for around 5 years now. I love it. Talk about great exercise. It involves stength, balance, flexibility, and cardio capacity. You do need some sensible dance shoes. Regular street shoes can cause injury, and dance shoes have special soles. I usually...

    Whatcha doing today?

    I'm on my 6 day break from work, so I always get the housework and laundry out of the way on the first day. There's just me, so luckily it's not too much to do. I'm doing a kickbox and ab workout this afternoon. I'm on my rest week for STS, so I'm doing some slightly lower intensity stuff...

    Zoinks and jinkies!!

    I track my calories on The Daily Plate site.....amazing how one "snack" can put you over the limit....too many snacks in one day just ruins all the hard work.

    Which packs the most punch?

    I really like Muscle Endurance. Muscle Max isn't bad either. It's a toss-up between those two for me.

    Definitely not in love with Jari Love

    I have never done any of Jari's workouts, but I have never bought one based on how she looks. I don't know if I can explain it. Cathe looks fit..solid...looks and sounds competent. Jari is ripped, but she doesn't look solid...her outfits often look cheesy...she just really doesn't look...

    A super proud Cathlete moment!!

    My boyfriend needed me to help him carry and load a kiak on the top of his truck one day. He said, "Christie (an old girlfriend) could never do this. She had no upper body strength compared to you." Thanks Cathe!!!

    Name Hang-ups

    I had one Grandma and one Grams. I guess we didn't want confusion with two grandmas.

    Disturbed and upset

    Apparently, in American waters, oil companies do not have to have a safety shut off valve on these oil platforms. I do not understand this reasoning at all. And even if they have one, it doesn't guarantee it would work...something could always go wrong, but it still be better to have one than...

    Is anyone else a bit disturbed by VW's ads?

    My boyfriend and I do this, but only when we see Jeeps, not VWs. He's a big Jeep fan, and we do off-road stuff up in the mountains. It's all harmless fun.

    Disturbed and upset

    It's not just the birds...there are pictures of jellyfish, crabs, dolphins, and dragonflies even, all in the oil. Makes me ashamed to say I belong to our species. So smart, so inventive, but so thoughtless sometimes....

    Food Scale? Yay or Nay?

    I use my scale every day. It has really helped me learn how to estimate a serving size visually. I found a really nice one for $15 at Wal-Mart.

    Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

    Hope everyone has a safe and fun weekend. I've been doing house work and yard work...not fun, but it has to be done. I've also cooking today..making lots of yummy, healthy things for lunches at work (black bean tortilla casserole, spinach and sausage pie, sweet corn and shrimp soup, etc)...

    WHY NOT A NUTRITION VIDEO

    I was just thinking the other day that a Cathe Cookbook would be great.

    What are your fitness plans today?

    Well, I was supposed to do cardio core circuit today, but I did STS legs on Monday, and I'm feeling some major DOMS today. I might not be able to jump around until tomorrow! I think I will do STS chest, shoulders, and biceps instead, and try CCC tomorrow or Friday.

    Question about Almond Milk

    I was about to buy some Almond or Coconut milk when I was in Whole Foods yesterday, but instead, I bought some Hemp milk. It is a really good source of Omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, not to mention B vitamins. I got the unsweetened original and vanilla flavors to try. I used some this morning in...

    Who was your gateway drug to Cathe?

    I started with Jane Fonda, the did The Firm workouts for a long time. I still do them from time to time, but their strength training is not intense like Cathe. I saw Cathe on Collage Video, and I was sold. I do use some workouts by others such as KCM, Patrick Goudeau, Kimberly Spreen...
