    Power Hour humbled me!!!

    LOL Patricia! Little did Cathe know that she needed a Witness Protection Program for her fans!!! Hmmm...I've always been convinced that I was a trust fund baby, switched at birth. I never considered the possibility that I may have a twin. Are you sure that your last name isn't Getty?

    Power Hour humbled me!!!

    RE: Just Remember Thanks AKirkland for the pyramid suggestion. Cathe has hinted that she may do a pyramid strength split in her next batch of videos. I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Naughtoj, I can certainly understand your reluctance to have your co-workers join you during your workouts...

    Power Hour humbled me!!!

    Power Hour wears me out. I'm just not made for endurance strength work. Give me heavy weights, let me go at a comfortable pace with some breaks, and I do just fine. Given light weights with high repetitions, I turn into a complete wimp. Now I know the old workout adage, "the things we find the...

    ?'s for "Heavy Lifters"

    RE: Cyberfit! Hi Patricia. 4 a.m.??? Yikes! I'm in awe of all you early morning exercisers. I pretty much don't function on a physical level before 10 or 11 a.m. :-rollen. You have a lot more motivation than you give yourself credit for. I need the coffee too. Yep, Fall is my favorite time of...

    ?'s for "Heavy Lifters"

    I have experienced the onset of apathy that often accompanies overtraining. In fact, I'm currently in a slump. These downtimes for me are seasonal. I don't handle the heat well, not at all! Then, in the winter, the low light levels start to drag me down. I usually cut back on the intensity and...

    Yipeee!

    Wow! Congratulations Debbie. Running 5 miles in the heat of the summer (or anytime, for that matter!) is quite an accomplishment. I wish I had your motivation.

    Does anyone else hate cardio machines?

    At home I have both an elliptical trainer and treadmill. The key motivator for me is some good pumping music, played on my personal cd player. Without the music, I couldn't bear to face either machine. With the music, I enjoy my workouts on the machines. Funny thing is, when I'm running...

    should I get CTX upper?

    RE: Hi Bepop! Yes, get CTX Upper Body! I have the series on DVD and love the upper body compilation. It never fails to fry my triceps. I'm very consistent with my strength training, but I always have some major DOMS in my triceps after doing this workout (and it hurts so good!)

    SUGGESTION FOR UPPER BODY VIDEOS

    RE: Tamilee Webb's I Want Those... I like Tamilee's series too. I would consider myself an advanced strength trainer, and I think these workouts have plenty to offer. You will have to supplement I Want Those Arms with some chest and back work though.

    New to Cathe - dare I try CTX?

    RE: Dare I try CTX? Absolutely My introduction to Cathe cardio was the CTX series. It took me a few times through the routines to pick up some of the moves, but it wasn't too difficult. I did have step experience, although I am somewhat choreo challenged. I feel safe in saying that if I can do...

    running club

    Hi Marla. You may want to call a speciality running store in your area; they will probably have information concerning local running clubs, clinics, etc.. An internet search could be helpful as well. I lived in Pittsburgh for several years (Ross Twp., Wexford, Squirrel Hill,) and although I ran...

    To avid runners

    babydollsea, I think that it's good that you are including outdoor runs in your training program. There is a difference between running on a treadmill and running outdoors, although you can get an excellent workout doing either one. Alberto Salazar has a book, "Treadmill Training and Workout...

    Ivanko Aerobic Bar

    I've had the Firm barbell (which I believe is the same as the Ivanko) for years (since Vol.6.) It still looks new and I've used it a lot. I have very small hands and haven't noticed that the padding is a problem. Maybe I've just become accustomed to it since it was my first barbell.

    The only one in the world to eat.....

    RE: Yuck! I love exotic flavors, so I'm always game. I've been on a spring salad mix/mango/avocado/plum tomato/canned tuna/with raspberry-walnut viniagrette kick lately. Yummmm!!! Thanks for all the great ideas.

    exercise in public....

    LAST EDITED ON Jul-13-02 AT 04:00PM (Est)[p]Hi Donna. Sounds like you're committed to starting a running program. I think that's great and when I see walkers/runners doing their thing, the first thing I feel is admiration regardless of their shape or speed. It takes discipline to push yourself...

    Tamilee Webb

    I just recently got the DVD that has the arm, lower body, and ab workout. Although I haven't used the ab segments yet, I am very happy with the arm and legs/buns workout. Because Tamilee waste no time, these are short but effective workouts. I highly recommend the series.
