I just wanted to add that I have tried WW several times and I gain weight every time I go on it. My family doc said I wasn't getting enough calories for my activity level. I did, however, try the Wendy Plan and I lost weight. I loved staggering my points. It worked great for me. I did...

I'm also interested in the answer to this question as I never know how often to change things up.

I think my favorite combo would have to be from Step and Intervals (at least I think it is from that workout). I love the combo with the knee repeater, 2 scoops on the board, 1 scoop off the end, turn, step knee, straddle, step knee to the front. That may not be exactly right, but if you have...

I agree with Heidi. I haven't used Slow & Heavy in a while because I'm hooked on the Gym Styles right now, but I love Slow & Heavy. It is probably my favorite weight series besides the Gym Styles. And like Heidi said, it definitely makes the biceps "pop."

Keep us informed after he works out. My 18-year-old son did Gym Style Back, Shoulders, and Biceps. He started out trying to use the same weight Cathe uses and was so worn out by the time the biceps section started, he was using 5 and 8 pounders. :) He also took a nap once the workout was over...

I take rest weeks, but they are not planned except for when I'm on vacation. I go through times when I just don't feel up to working out, and I figure it is because my body needs a break. I normally come back stronger after a week off.

I recommend the CTX Series. It was my first Cathe series and I had my best results ever using those workouts.

I also recommend trying Ryka shoes. I wear a 5.5, but normally need a 6 in Ryka brands. I also just recently bought a new pair of New Balance 504 and had to have 6 in those also. Usually New Balance I wear smaller, but this particular shoe is way smaller than my others.

I measure also. Chest Waist Low Abs Hips Thighs

I'm short also and Kick Max and Gym Style Legs are both working great for me.

Is this possible? It must be because I wore a pair of jeans yesterday that I had not worn for 3, maybe 5, years. Not only did they fit, but they fit comfortably. I was so excited. I measure myself and my measurements are pretty much the same. The only thing I can figure out is that when a person...

Double post sorry. I think I had a twitch when I hit the post message button. :7

I do only Cathe. I used to be a Firm Believer until I found Cathe. I try different instructors, but I'm really picky and can't find anyone else I like. Last week I ordered 5 new DVDs from Collage Video. This week, I'm sending them all back as I am able to find something wrong with every one of them.

That sounds great. I actually did this workout for the first time in a long time this week and thought of you when I got to that particular section. I was coming on here to make sure you were not trying to go around the entire step during the triples as it it only halfway around. But you already...

RE: Cathe (or educated crowd) need one more inch off hi... You guys are really making me want to buy the Tony Horton's Master Series workouts, and I was trying to stay away from anything new. ;)

I also have not found that lunges and squats have the "butt boosting" effect. :) I go as heavy as I can on squats and lunges. I also think Cathe's leg presses are more efficient than the Firm because they are faster paced. I use the band with Gym Style Legs leg presses just as Cathe and crew and...

RE: Cathe (or educated crowd) need one more inch off hi... I also have some old jeans that I've hung onto since probably the 80s. They are Levi's 501 Buttonfly in a 3 Junior. I cannot wear them because I've gained weight since then, but I also cannot wear a 3 Junior that are sold now. I can...

Hi Debbie, I wasn't doing an actual rotation, but was making sure I did Low Max, Kick Max, and the Gym Style workouts at least once a week. I just started an actual rotation this week and I've already lost another pound. I'm doing 4 days on 1 day off. I'm really focusing on my weight work and...

Happened to me also with the Firm. I've had a bubble butt all my life and the Firm just made it huge. It looked like I literally could set something on it back there for a while. I now only do leg presses once, maybe twice, per week on a 12-inch step instead of 14 inches. My hips were up to a...

Activity points are not the same for everyone. It depends on your weight and activity level.
