Thanks Belinda! Nice job today! Today I did a Christina Dorner live class...well, 2 actually...upper and lower body, + my rehab exercises for my stupid leg; I tore my calf and hamstring a few weeks ago doing a workout I had no business doing But it's getting better! I guess it helps that my...

Good morning ladies, remember me?! (Formally meliffy18). I think the last time I came to this check-in group was probably 7 years ago Anyway, I would love to join you all again! My workout schedule has been so erratic for the past few years between grad school, getting settled in (insane and...

TOTALLY get it!!! I like the slow & steady plan!

Have you seen a physical therapist about your knee? Even just a consult might get you on the track for what to incorporate into your training re: hip/knee/ankle/core exercises targeted to hit what might be affecting your knee whether that be strength/endurance/mobility/all of the above. There...

I absolutely LOVE this!!!

YES the bulkiness is why both of us were kind of hesitant. It seems like Power Blocks are the way to go (that's also what a lot of people recommended when I posted this on Facbeook too). Thank you!

Hi everyone! A client of mine is looking to build her home gym and invest in some adjustable DBs (YAY!!!!). She'd prefer something that isn't too bulky and where the bars don't have a "metal smell." Price point if we can is around $250 but she is willing to go higher if it's a good set. Also, we...

All.the.TIME!!! There is 1 from IMAX 2 that I can't think of right now, but I can't hear it without thinking of Cathe and that workout

So happy someone mentioned pelvic floor PT! You can also see one without a script from your MD (we are trained in how to look for prolapse). I would just caution doing anything without getting an individualized evaluation first, only because symptoms and compensations vary SO much from person to...

If surgery is absolutely necessary (I recommend getting a couple of opinions whenever surgery is suggested), make sure you hire a good physical therapist before and after surgery. They will perform movement screens, strength testing to condition the surrounding musculature prior to surgery and...

I love you for saying this! Our bodies NEED carbs. Our brains NEED carbs in order to function. Any diet that tells you to completely eliminate entire food groups is a waste of time and will set you up for failure and a ensure never ending diet cycle.

Nevermind, I figured it out! But if anyone else is ever lost, just drag and drop the DVD titles into the days you want them to be done.

I'm trying to come up with some rotations but when I get to the 4th step in the workout manager with the dates and calendar, I have no idea how to actually schedule a workout for a specific day. Has anyone created their own rotations in the WOM who can help?

Has anyone created an advanced ICE rotation using the muscle meltdowns/blizzard blasts? I would love to try something like this since I love that series!

Loneswaneast, did you gradually break your inserts in or did you try jumping back in all your regular activity soon after you got them? Also, depending on your biomechanics and the shape of your feet, sometimes a lesser arch support, as SRP suggested, is more helpful than one with higher arch...

I'm trying to load one of the new rotations into my calendar but I'm not even seeing them in here. Are they uploaded yet? Thanks!

I love everything about this response! This is why I keep coming to Cathe for my wellness needs. No gimmicky stuff included!

Hi Cathe, I was just wondering: with the blow-up of Beach Body programs, it seems like every series they release is accompanied by a meal plan or some kind of nutritional program. Why have you never done this with your series? For some reason I was thinking about this the other day Cheers!

Hi everyone! I'm a physical therapist and I treat patients with tennis/golfer's elbow quite frequently. While eccentric wrist and elbow exercises coupled with forearm and bi/tri/wrist stretches may help alleviate your condition, the more severe symptoms should not be self-diagnosed or corrected...

Yeah, i noticed that also! I have to modify the pelvic tilt because it puts strain on my lower back when performing for a long period of time. Luckily I'm a physical therapist, so I know what to be mindful of and how to correct it ;)
