    Fit tower dvds that came with tower

    I have only used the advanced one that came with the Fit Tower. I use this workout on a day when I feel like doing nothing, but need to do something. I’ve definitely modified this one to make it a bit more challenging. I will hold onto this workout for the days when I’m just not feeling great.

    Arthritis

    Thank heavens for workouts, that's about the only time of day that I'm not feeling the ache of arthritis. I've had to modify plenty of exercises, but still have lots of workouts that I can still do. Haven't been able to do push-ups in many months due to shoulder tendinitis, and I'm ever SO...

    vitamin for women over 40

    I would like to find a good one too. I seem to take enough vitamins and supplements to constitute a small meal. I don't even know if they do anything at all!

    Thigh Gap -/- Is it a feasible goal to pursue? :-/

    Good grief, I would love to meet the person who came up with the term "thigh gap " and give their head a shake! Maybe I'm just getting old and can't tolerate stupid stuff anymore. Sherry

    We need some excitement !

    I'm really enjoying this thread too. Love having a peek into my fellow cathletes personal lives. My attitude towards my workouts have changed quite a bit. I figure as long as I get off my butt for a good 30 minutes daily doing some form of exercise, its good enough. Menopause has given me...

    Cize by Shaun T

    Just watching an infomercial on this latest workout. Looks pretty intense and was wondering if anyone has tried it yet? I love Zumba dancing and this looks pretty challenging too. If I can master all of Cathe's step moves, I should be able to learn these dance moves (with lots of practice)...

    Anyone on Hormone Replacement Therapy?

    I'm suffering through hot flashes, night sweats and now more sleep problems. I'm going to see a naturopath doctor this week, bypassing my family Doctor. I really hope to get some relief, I'm getting pretty worn down and fed up!! My sister had breast cancer so I will not try HRT. I can't imagine...

    Have you ever tried to smile?

    I've tried smiling during some Cathe workouts, but I'm really testing myself to see if I could smile long enough to be in her workouts. Needless to say it doesn't last, but who am I kidding.....me in a fitness video??? I'm sure the camera would zoom in on me as I'm cursing. LOL

    "Old Lady Legs" (no offense meant)

    Hi Stacy I've noticed that with myself and just a 7 lb weight loss, it seemed to have a positive effect on my overall appearance, but these darn legs of mine just can't keep off that aging process. I'm pretty well into menopause, that at times has been anything but pleasant! I've noticed a...

    Motivating an exercise class

    I found that the music I played was a big motivator. I would ask participants what kind of music they liked. There were many seniors in the class and I played some older songs. I know myself, that when I love a song, I kick it up a little bit more. Good luck Sherry

    Chemotherapy and working out

    My sister finished up a 4 month chemo treatment in December and she also kept up with her workouts. She was always a little off for 3 or 4 days following her treatments, with nausea and fatigue as well, and then resumed her walking/running. She was also seeing a naturopath too for Vitamin C...
