    Where to get a good barbell for these workouts?

    I wanted one that had cushioning at the neck. Sometime ago, the best one I had was made by the Firm...they don't sell them anymore but it was great...it wasn't long and had cushioning around the neck area. It held standard size weight plates...but that was a more than a few years and few homes...

    Transition from Bent Knee to Full Push Ups

    I have trouble even doing the bent knee ones as my wrists kill me...I don't know if wrist bands would help though. Did anyone have this problem at one point and went away? I used to do them some time ago....then I went through my period of non exersizing and gaining weight...I lost the weight...

    12 WEEK MELTDOWN CHALLENGE

    Your before is my current scene. I have the same body shape it would seem ... so this is very inspirational. I am in no way new to working out but my goodness is it hard to find something good...I think too many workouts these days are easy and catered to people who only want to do a little bit...

    Nike or NB?

    I prefer NB....either that I like the Reebok princess...I was never a fan of Nike. They never quite felt as comfortable for me..even though the designs are hotter than the other brands. Something about them never quite worked with me - so I would go with NB.

    What is the difference in step up boxes?

    Thanks for the replies. I will just go ahead and order the larger step...I figured there was a difference but didn't know if it was worth the huge price difference. Also - I remember back in the eighties that the ole step (maybe it was a Jane Fonda?) use to dislodge all the time...I am sort...

    Does the step (selling for 59.99) come with a dvd?

    I noticed when I checked out qvc that the step, selling for the same price as on Cathe.com also came with a 53min workout video (they didn't say which one). Although there is nothing on this website that says it comes with any dvd I was wondering if it did???

    Certified Fitness Instructor - does it matter which one?

    There are so many out there that range in price from fifty dollars to thousands of dollars....for those that are certified, does it really matter which one? I checked around to local gyms and most just accept any certification...even online ones. This is something that has been in the back of...

    What is the difference in step up boxes?

    Thanks for the reply....do you happen to know if perhaps the risers on this website would fit the steps (by Cathe) sold in shops??? It seems such a huge difference in price....I am wondering if I wouldn't be better off just purchasing one of her steps at Walmart...where it sells for under...

    I quit buying new tapes

    I can relate....Tony is annoying - too loud like someone in a bar after a few too many....Denise and her voice - need we say more on that? The firm went crap and turned into what every other workout became and I cannot stand the 'instructors'...however the original ones from the eighties and...

    What is the difference in step up boxes?

    I noticed the step box on the Cathe.com is about a hundred dollars while the step up boxes (also by Cathe) that come with a dvd and are sold in sports shops sell for under fifty...what is the difference?
