    Don't pump gas on May 15th!

    I just wanted to chime in to say that Chevy is coming out with a hybrid version of the Tahoe/Yukon next year. Hopefully that means the same for the Suburban/Yukon XL soon. They already come standard with an engine that will run on E85 and systematically reduces the number of cylinders used as...

    Breakdowns

    Road Trippers Check in Tues 5/8

    Hi Liann! I missed your post while I was typing mine up. I am glad to be back! When I started with Cathe in the fall of 2004, I thought her weight selections were crazy heavy!! I only had sets of dumbbells from 3-10 lbs and I pretty much picked up about 1/2 of whatever she said she was...

    Road Trippers Check in Tues 5/8

    Hi everyone! I just realized I haven't posted here since last Thursday. Life has been hectic, so I just took a little time for myself and read through the last few days checkins. It sounds like, 1) There's been a whole lotta eating going on! I had my cheat day on Saturday, so I'm right...

    RT Checkin Thurs. 5/3

    Happy Thursday everyone! One more day until the weekend!! Michelle - Cathe does do a lot of oblique work in Bootcamp. The first few times I did that workout, I remember being desperate for a simple, standard crunch. Tess - Since you've been doing PS, I recommend S&H then GS to shake...

    RT Checkin Weds May 2

    Good afternoon everyone! Last night I did PLB and PUB except for the abs. It was actually not as hard as I was afraid it would be. I just couldn't face the roll-ins and pikes right before dinner, so I wimped out at the end. This morning I was up bright and early - took a quick 2 mile run...

    Road Trip Check in Tues May 1

    Happy Tuesday everyone! Phyllis - Aren't the premixes on the new videos great?! You can get pretty much any combination you want in any length that suits your schedule - too cool. Randi - Hopefully you'll still be able to feel your arms after KM. ;) That's gonna be tough for sure...

    Road Trip Check-in for Monday, April 30, 2007

    Hi everyone! Heather - Your adventures in TV shopping story is too much! I enjoy shopping for electronics, so I can't say I can empathize, but I can certainly sympathize. I've had a couple of situations lately with lemons and it is no fun. Belinda - Still no May rotation. Boo! I'm doing...

    RT Check in- Friday 4/27

    Hi Liann! Glad to see I'm not the only one who enjoys a nice fake bake every now and then. I'm the same way as you with my face. I either wear SPF 15 when I go or I put a towel over my face. Even though I only go once a week once I build up my base, I don't ever want to look anything like...

    RT Check in- Friday 4/27

    Hi everyone. I've been MIA for a whole myself. Last time I posted, I was getting ready for a major website redesign install and hoping it went well. It didn't go so well. Without going into too much detail, the install itself was about 6 hours longer than expected, which meant from 10pm Fri...

    SNM: Cathe.com unavailable

    Hi Cathe or Chris, I can't seem to get to the main site www.cathe.com. I have the main page for the forums bookmarked and get here just fine, but I get the following message trying to access the site. Thought you might like to know. The requested URL could not be retrieved...

    Road tripper advice

    RE: ??? I see no reason to shower while you're still at the gym. In 2005, we went offsite for lunch so a lot of people showered before. And the same for Sun am - most people took a quick shower between the early morning workout and going to breakfast. But it's perfectly okay to be sweaty and...

    RT check in Friday April 13

    Good morning fellow Roadtrippers! After having such a tough time finishing up SJ&P yesterday, I decided my body was telling me it's had enough of the high impact for a couple of days. So this morning, instead of running, I walked with DH 2 miles (good pace - 25 min) and then did the cardio...

    RT Check in Thurs April 12

    Hi Roadtrippers! Nice to see everyone again. I've been so busy with work I haven't been able to post much lately. Yesterday, I did Low Max (ouch! x( ) and today I did Step, Jump & Pump (double ouch x( x( ). I'm really looking forward to a run tomorrow - 2 miles outside and 30 min on the...

    PUB/PLB

    My favorite parts of these workouts is the biceps work in upper body and the glute tucks on the stability ball part of PLB. On the main menu page, look at the very bottom center of the screen. There is a "Bonus Combo" premix there that combines the pyramid up series from both PUB and PLB...

    RT check in Tues April10

    Liann - If you poop out in the middle of a workout during the RT, grab your camera and take some action shots. Act like you *planned* it that way! ;-) :D Seriously, the RT workouts anywhere near the intensity of Cathe's DVDs. They are advanced, but very approachable. For cardio, she breaks...

    Trippers Monday 4/9

    Hi there, Roadtrippers! I've been away for a few days and haven't had time to catch up on the past few days worth of posts yet. Looking forward to seeing everyone's blurbs! I didn't have time to finish my workout yesterday before heading off to my parents house for Easter dinner. So I...

    Road tripper advice

    I think I posted this advice on another thread somewhere in OD, but probably worth posting again. When we do weights, go light and watch your form. During the 2005 RT, I had to stop and lighten up during a set of barbell front raise/shoulder press because my form was so poor. Even though I...
