Hi... I must be the only one who doesn't have the CTX series...yet! I have just about everything else, though! In the PS series for Chest, Shoulders, and Triceps, Cathe has us do some shoulder work sitting down, and she says that sometimes doing the work in a seated position makes it tougher...

Hi... I remember reading back thru old posts one time, and saw a post where Cathe said her intent was for Bodymax to be done as is. However, I did a search now and couldn't find that post. That's what I remember though. Veronica

Hi everyone! Today I turned 40, and I've never felt better about myself than I do now. I've worked out with videos at home forever, but when I discovered this forum and Cathe's videos back in October, I sure turned a corner! I am fit, firm, and above all else, happy with myself. Sure, I...

Too funny!!!! Thanks for starting my day off with a smile! Veronica

Hi, SAM3! Go to the discussion called "Attention Rotation Requesters" by Kathy S. She has an awesome list of rotations that she will email to you if you send her your email address. They include Cathe/Firm rotations. Veronica

Boy I know how you feel. I am sick, too, and feeling guilty about not working out. I am going to Maui in two weeks to celebrate my husband's and my 40th birthdays. (I'm two days older than he is) Well, two days ago, I caught some kind of bug, and I feel awful. I know that if I do cardio I will...

The other two conferences are the Video questions and the Open discussion forums. They are listed below the "Ask Cathe" forum. There is also a Fit Pregnancy forum, for those who are expecting. Veronica

Hi Amy Jo! I used Gin Miller's videos exclusively until I discovered Cathe's. I still use the Intense Moves; I love it. I have Extreme Step, and used to do it regularly. Mixed in with the cardio are pushups and one arm side lateral pushups. (I think that's what they are called.)I never...

I use the Rubbermaid toolbox, and I'm happy with it. I got it at Target for around $17-$20, can't remember exactly how much. I guess it's a combination toolbox, and stepstool? The top is rough, like the top of the Reebok step, so you don't slip while standing on it. I use that as is for the...

Hi! I use the Reebok step. I'm happy with it. I think the step that Cathe uses makes putting it at an incline for weight work easier, and I think you can put hers at different levels of incline, but I can still achieve an incline with the Reebok step. I've had it for a million years. It's...

That's what I remember, too. I think Cathe may have said that the legs would be pretty fatigued after SLA so maybe cardio after that tape isn't a good idea. I've been on a rotation where I do the PS series, each tape once a week, and either MIS or Bodymax once a week,(along with 3 or 4 days of...

Hi, Linda! Welcome to the forums! I'm sorry that I can't answer your question, as I have no children, but there is a FitMoms pregnancy forum here, too, and I bet you'd get a good answer if you posted your question there. Veronica

Hi! Yes, a step is used. If you go to the home page, and on the left side of the page under "order Cathe's videos" scroll down and click on Maximum Intensity - Strength". There will be a complete description of the video, along with a list of equipment needed. Veronica

Thanks! Thanks for your answer Cathe! Although my fitness level is improving with the continued use of your tapes, I just can't imagine going full blast for 60 minutes! :-tired. Veronica

You're too funny!!!! Or is it "your two funny"? You should hear me try to talk when I am tired. I'm the source of a lot of amusement around the house!

Funny you should post this, as I have begun to think that although I feel like I am eating enough, I am constantly hungry. I am a terrible creature of habit, and everyday I eat the same things. Breakfast is a bagel (180 cal) with just a touch of margarine, and either a bowl of soy cereal or a...

I agree with what everyone has said. I know how tough it can be to be around these people. There is a woman in my office who is addicted to exercise in a bad way. If she eats one little thing that she doesn't think she should, she will figure out how much extra cardio she has to do that night...

RE: Hmmm! Ed Harris! Loved him in StepMom, especially.

RE: HEY! It sure wouldn't be Boring after that!!

RE: When WSF magazine posted their awesome "Exercise Diet" article Thanks Leela! What magazine is WSF? They must be targeting hardcore advanced exercisers, as 60 minutes 3x a week at 75-80% of max hr might cause beginners not to stick with the program. Veronica
