    Another irony was the sculpting stick that came out with BSS 2....Every DVD in BSS 2 used the stick for balance on lunges and leg presses, and all they did in the workouts was harp on how "the sculpting stick is a great tool for balance." The, BSS 3, 4, and now 5 come out, and there is no...

    It's true....almost all of the Firm DVDs I collected, including this brand new system move VERY fast. I could never understand why the advice was always to "heavy up" for better results, and I would think "Well, I would heavy up if they would just slow down!" Also, they just jump so fast from...

    Kevin Trudeau's "Weight Loss Cure"

    RE: Kevin Trudeau's I copied this from the link provided above: " He'd have us believe that the government and pharmaceutical companies are all out to get us by joining forces in a big conspiracy to keep us sick so they can empty our pockets" This I will say is true. As I mentioned, I have...

    Suggestions for Cathe workouts for an advanced Firmie?

    I consider myself an advanced Firmie...which in my opnion, makes me an intermediate exerciser overall. I already have Muscle Max, and can see that I will be working my way up to completing the entire workout with heavier weights. Now I am just trying to decide on my first Cathe step...

    RE: Kevin Trudeau's "His book does contain some truths" Exactly...I always thought he was on to something, as he always seems to mention stuff about healtcare that I fight with people to beliieve, because I have witnessed it with my own two eyes, which is all the proof in the world. But...

    Will I get results with 5, 8, 10 lb weights?

    Muscle Max is my 1st Cathe workout (I have been Firming for years). I just previewed Muscle Max, and noticed that, unlike the Firm, there are lots more reps on some exercises, and lots of exercises that do more than 1 set, etc. I'm going to start out with the shorter premixes for a couple of...

    Is it easy enough to sub dumbbells for barbell work?

    I cannot afford a barbell, and all the various weight plates that would need to go with it. Therefore, for the exercises that use a barbell, is it just as good to use dumbbells instead?

    What does the "Mix and Match" menu mean?

    On my Muscle Max DVD, there is a menu for the workout, premixes, chapters, and mix and match. Mix and Match is exactly the same as Chapters (i.e., both pops up the entire workout breakdown, and when I press "enter" on any one of the breakdowns, it automatically starts playing that one...

    Neoprene dumbbells

    Anyone found a great place (retail or online) to get neoprene dumbbells that are a different color for each weight and have the odd 6, 7, 9, 12 lb sizes? I know, a tall order! I just feel the vinyl get slippery when I sweat and the chrome feel yucky against my skin and the handles on the...

    Is step more beneficial than other cardio?

    I know that in terms of pure cardio, it does not matter what you do, as long as you are in the target heart rate zone. So you can do tennis, spin, swim, step, walk, jog...makes no difference, as long as you are in the heartrate zone. But, I'm still wondering though if all cardio are not made...

    Kevin Trudeau's "Weight Loss Cure"

    I've been a Kevin Trudeau fan, as having done various work in the western healthcare industry, I have eyewitnessed first-hand many of the things he talks about that tend to get written off as conspiracy theory and/or controversial. But, today I was watching a little info-mercial type thing...

    " was waiting for the reviews before I bought them but all the reviews that I seen on "the firm site" everyone seemed to love them." From what I've experienced when I used to be addicted to the Firm, the webclub is designed to be positive, and anytime an honest opinion is given that is...
