    Is there a secret to pushups?

    I can only do about 2 on my toes and not much more on my knees. And the ones on my toes are not full pushups because if I go down like I should, I can't get back up.x( Is there some secret to doing them? Does it just take a lot of practice? I hate them sooo bad and they are so difficult I always...

    What does a good rotation consist of?

    How much cardio, HIIT, circuit, and weight training should you have to make a good rotation? Just curious because I thought I would try to make up my own rotation out of the DVDs that I have right now. I am currently doing the intensity series and have a couple of weeks left on it and then was...

    What do you do when you miss a workout?

    Quite often I just skip it. I don't feel too bad because I rarely take a day off and I have found that you really need to. I think I was overtraining there for a while because I got to where I could not complete some of the workouts that I had been completing and I also had never made it all the...

    ~Eating "clean" and Splenda~

    RE: ~Eating I love splenda also. I personally will not give it up, but it is a choice you have to make for yourself. It really is not a natural food. As far as the veggie burgers go, all of my life I have eaten morning star farms products and other vegetarian meat substitutes because I do not...

    Yams vs. Sweet Potatoes

    I prefer sweet potatoes. (I think). So I was just wondering, are the ones in the cans that are labeled yams really sweet potatoes? Because they are not light in color, they look like sweet potatoes that you buy in the store fresh. I am confused. :+ Shawna

    taking your measurements

    I measured my bust, waist, hips,thighs, and arms. I have found that it is a much better way to moniter than the scale. I call the scale my enemy. I took my first measurements in August and have lost quite a few inches (although I didn't really get too serious about eating and exercise until...

    how long before i can tell?

    I just wanted to add that you should take measurements. I have been working out with Cathe for a couple of months and I have not seen much weight loss. What I did do was take measurements and I have lost in inches. To me that is waaay better than a number on the scale. I don't even weigh myself...

    Laura, Do you actually believe this? Are you just playing "devils advocate?" Because I find it very hard to believe that someone could really be this callous.:(

    sub for hardcore extreme

    No, I don't have Terminator either.:( The rotation says any Extreme workout of choice. I do have all the hardcores, all the intensity and all the body blast. I have power hour and rhytmic step also.

    sub for hardcore extreme

    Can someone please tell me what I could use to substitute for a hardcore extreme workout. I am going to do Cathes January rotation, and I have ordered Extreme, but will not have it for the end of week one. Is there a workout that I can do that will be equivalent to this? Thank you so much. Shawna

I sold my taebo bootcamp and now have the hardcore series, intensity series, bodyblast series, ctx, power hour, and a couple of others I can't think of right off the top of my head. My goal is to...

    Question about circuit workouts

    I believe that this question has been asked before, but I am too lazy to do a search. I would like to know if anyone can tell me why or if it is okay to do a circuit workout the day after working a specific body part, or if you should wait 48 hours for that body part to rest. If you don't have...

    Ok how many push ups can you do from your toes!!!!!

    2-3 is all I can do. I am so bad, I really don't try. I always skip that part of a workout. I don't even do them on my knees. I will have to stop that and do as many as I can.:(

    Biggers breasts anyone??

    Hmmm, Robyn, Is that a foreign object in your belly button??!!! Can't be. You would have had to put a hole in your stomach for that. And the ears too??:o

    Biggers breasts anyone??

    Another post well put!! I agree with you completely, and like I said on the other thread, if a person is so shallow and narrow minded as to let somthing superficial like that affect how they feel about a person, I do not want them for a friend anyway. I figure I am not missing out on anything...

    bigger breasts

    Melody, I agree with you completely. I made the choice to get breast implants and it was totally my decision and believe me, I did not take into consideration what other people would think whether positive or negative, nor do I owe any one an explanation as to why I did it. As for those of...
