    Cardio, how many x per week?

    I usually do my cardio in the morning and then in the early afternoon I will lift (thank goodness my kids still take naps). I am hoping that if I cut back on my cardio and really focus on my lifting I will see better results and have more energy for my cardio. You dont know if you dont try...

    Cardio, how many x per week?

    I usually do 6 days a week of cardio (plus I lift most days - different body parts obviously). Lately I have been very tired and I think I may need to cut back on my cardio and really focus on my weights. I was just curious what everyone else is doing... Mindy

    CPR certified, ready to roll!!

    Congrats to you!! Hopefully you will be able to help more people than you ever thought possible. I am just about to get my study materials to get my certification, so I am very excited. There are not many gym choices where I live (Alabama) - lets just say AL is not the most healthy state (sweet...

    Where to start with P90X

    Thank you so much for all the info. That is a lot of money to invest in something without checking it out with other Cathe fans. Very few in the video industry can compare to her. Mindy :-)

    Where to start with P90X

    Did you do the P90X rotation exclusively or did you add in other workouts? I have to say I am not a big "rotation" person. I will do GS ,SH, Slo-Mo ect.. for two weeks and then I feel like I just have to change to something else. Although I will be pre-ordering STS and I plan to use that as...

    Where to start with P90X

    I would like to give P90X a try (thanks to all the comments I have heard on here :-) ), but I was wondering if I should start with the origianl or if I should go ahead and get the newer release.

    NASM vs. ACE vs AAFA

    I am leaning toward NASM, I talked with one of their customer service reps yesterday, he said that 60 out of 100 pass their test and he felt that the 40 who didn't pass didn't study. I think it is like anything else in life - you get out of it what you put into it. NASM said you have 120 days to...

    Abs Diet

    Ok I bought the book and have read most of it. I really like the food approach that he takes. However I made one of his smoothies last night, it wasn't good. Anyways, I guess my question is this: He claims that after 20 min of cardio you start to burn mucsle which in turn causes you not to...

    Who is your favorite Cathe Crew Member

    I am so glad I am not alone in feeling invaded. The guys almost look too buff for my taste. Maybe Cathe is trying to expand her target audience with this series, but I just have a feeling that it is not going to be the same. x(

    Who is your favorite Cathe Crew Member

    I wouldn't say that I have a favorite, I love them all in their own way. And in a weird way I am not excited about the new cast members. I almost feel like they will be interupting my workouts with "my girls". Anyone else feel this way???

    ACE Certification

    Has anyone here recently done the ACE Exam? I am interested in taking the exam, however I have an old copy of the Personal Trainer Manual. Is it worth the purchase of the newer text and other study supplies? Any info on the test and what I can expect would be great. I am not looking for the...

    SLO-MO

    I did Amy Bento Slo-Mo today. I have gained strength and definition. I love this workout, Amy is unique compared to what is out on the market for the home exerciser.I always get DOMS from this workout when I do it with the focus it requires. I would say go for it. I love what Cathe said in her...

    CREDIT CARD DEBIT

    I would also like to add that you are not alone. We were tempted to go into debt settlement, but in the end we felt this was not the best solution for us. One thing I have been doing differently is NOT using my DEBIT card. We pull out cash for groceries, gas.... it has totaly changed my...

    Cathe you look....

    Hi Cathe, I wanted to say I love your new workouts, keep them coming!! I did notice in the new seris how "cut" you look compared to some of you older workouts. Dont get me wrong you looked great in your older workouts too. What would you attribute that to? Is it something that just happens...
