    Cathe (or educated crowd) need one more inch off hips

    RE: Cathe (or educated crowd) need one more inch off hi... I just wanted to say that I'm 43 and a size 4 is really not that small. I wear a size 4 and I'm not even close to being skin and bones. As a matter of fact, I could stand to lose about 10 pounds. I am short which may make a difference...

    Where's Jai?

    If I'm not mistaken, Jai and her husband were opening a new restaurant during the filming of those workouts.

    uh oh is my step too big for low impact step ?

    It is a shame. It is a great workout. I also have the regular club step and have no problem. Cathe has walking/triples going around the step in many workouts.

    Gym Style Question

    I'm starting a new rotation with the Gym Styles starting next week. I got the idea from one of my Muscle and Fitness Hers Magazines. I'm going to do a 4 day on 1 day off rotation. It will look like this. Sunday - Gym Style Back, Shoulders, and Biceps + 30 minutes of cardio Monday - Gym Style...

    Kickboxing

    I love Kick Max. The leg conditioning drills at the end are worth the price of DVD. They are super hard and super effective.

    the butt?

    Hi Sara, I don't follow a particular rotation. I just make sure that I do Kick Max, Low Max, and Gym Style Legs at least once a week plus another cardio of choice, usually a short one from the Cross Train Series, and I make sure the upper body gets worked at least 1 day as well. I've kind of...

    Where's Jai?

    She maybe talking about the intermediate videos as Jai was not in those, and I'm thinking they came out after the Hardcore workouts.

    levitation holds tip

    I also do the move in lotus position (cross leg) and barefoot. I asked Cathe about this. She said it is a modified position, but still working the core.

    Exercising after Ab Surgery

    You definitely need to ask your doctor as each person is different. I have had 2 c-sections and was doctor approved to go back to doing ab work after only 3 weeks. I was excellent condition. I wasn't lifting weights at that time, but I do remember being back to all my regular exercise and...

    has anyone NOT had success with WW?

    I have tried WW several times. My sister, my son, and my mother all had excellent results. My results? I actually gained weight and felt like I was starving. I actually tried it again last week to help keep my son on track and I gained 2 pounds last week. I haven't been on it this week and I've...

    the butt?

    Hi Laura, I had this same problem for a long time and didn't know why. I just thought it was my genetics and I couldn't do anything about it. I found out that I was wrong. I had been a Firm Believer for over 10 years and all those tall box climbs/leg presses made my bottom look huge and...

    Interesting Article on caffeine, oh how we love it!

    I didn't read the entire article, but also heard this on the news just this morning. I can't drink caffeine. I used to drink 1 Big Red (cola) daily because I love them. Just from that 1 daily cola, I had really really bad fibrocystic breasts which made my left breast hurt really bad during PMS...

    Whats up with the pajama pants?

    You can definitely have "muffin tops" without being overweight. I know by my own experience. I do have these in some pants, gross, but it is not because my pants are too small, but because I have love handles. I don't have anything hanging over in the front at all because I have really flat abs...

    Low Max-love the music!!

    Judy, I was the same way the first time I did Low Max. A lot of people said it was easy and here I was needing breaks. It only took me a couple of weeks to be able to do the entire workout. I did it again for the first in 2 weeks this week and it was hard again. I had to rest during the blast...

    Sticking to the series workouts??

    I am so bad with sticking with rotations, but I've thought of doing this many times. I was planning on sticking to the same series for weights for at least 4-6 weeks and then moving on. Like the above poster, I would mix up the cardio workouts. I've thought of starting with Slow & Heavy to build...

    While healing -- Ab Hits II?

    I think that is a great idea. I would love to have Ab Hits II.

    Wow. Eye opener for me.

    I have a lot of lower body fat also. I'm only 5'. I was at 128 lbs, but have gotten down to 122 so far with excellent results in the outer leg area by doing Low Max, Kick Max, and Gym Style Legs weekly along with leisurely walks in the afternoon. My legs are still big, so I'm not finished losing...

    UPDATE 1/5/06

    Thanks for the update Cathe. I've had pulled muscles before, ouch, and I know how badly they hurt. Take your time and let it heal. I really want the workouts, but I want you to be at your best when it is time to film them.
