I pick on Jari all the time which is unfair giving how much I benefited from her workouts. Jari has kept me company for a long time. I yell at the TV very often starting with her warm ups but I do the workout. Overall, her form is not bad and she gives decent form pointers. There are just...

I have the same problem. I'm an apple and I hold my weight in my upper body. What worked for me is high rep work to lose the subcutaneous fat followed by STSs. I spend about 1 month on Meso 1 then do Meso 2 for much longer. Go as heavy as you can safely handle and when in doubt do more sets...

When I first did an aerobic endurance rotation, I alternated running with Jari's 4 old workouts favoring RTTC. That is all that was available back then. I worked out for 6 days a week and did whatever I wanted on the 7th. I had tried to do heavier leg weight work with running and failed...

It is actually very easy. DVD43 or Anydvd work in the background on your computer. You don't do anything with them. DVD43 is free. You just launch Handbrake, import your dvd and pick which title you want to rip and give it a name and a folder. That is all. I've never used anything other...

I know we pick on Jari something awful but I am very happy to have her workouts. I got better results overall since I added high rep. My aerobic endurance went up. I doubled my VO2 max using a combination of high rep and running. I didn't know I had that kind of potential. Lorie, one of her...

If you have never tried a high rep rotation, it is worth the effort particularly if you are a hard gainer like me (mostly slow twitch fiber/built for endurance). The potential for aerobic adaptation (fat metabolism) is much larger than the anaerobic one (sugar metabolism). The only way to...

I'm right there with you Elsie. I've yelled at her to eat some carbs so her form improves a little. She is much worse in the later dvds. She can't really execute the moves with the kind of precision we are used to with Cathe. Her form is what happens when you force your muscles to work...

I actually buy Cathe's mp4s because I can use them with the workout blender. For other DVDs, I use Handbrake to rip them. You need to have a program like Anydvd or DVD43 to remove the copyright protection. Handbrake can handle the rest. Make sure you keep all the original dvds in order not to...

Yes, I've been making soaps for over 10 years as a hobby/necessity. I give them to family, friends and neighbors. It is really fun. I use a lot of different oils. I use organic oils whenever I can find them. Over the years, you learn which oils your skin likes most. I have different mixes...

I like her older workouts better than the new ones. They are harder. The new ones have more cardio and less reps which is a lot easier. I suggest you use her workouts 3x a week alternating with cardio. Cathe's metabolic workouts make a great compliment if your body can handle the workload...

I had heard that DVDs can warp and become unplayable if not stored flat. I took my DVDs out of sleeves and binders. I ended up using empty spindles that hold 50 to 100 DVDs. I brought them from work empty. They worked great. I can stack 50 to 100 dvds on each. I have the workouts...

I have been following this thread with great interest (and awe) for a while. I broke toes before and couldn't walk on them worth anything. I'm so sorry to hear that he fell. Sending healing vibes his way. Glad to hear that he is taking a day or 2 off. A little rest might just be what he...

I think a get together will be a new form of exercise. We would laugh so hard we'll end up with very deep core DOMS. It will be so worth it!! All kidding aside, reviews are an excellent idea! After all, there is another sale coming in few months. We all need new wish lists like we need...

Eat healthy and skip all things detox. As far as sugar is concerned, I limit it to the equivalent of 2 to 3 tsps a day because of the fructose content. You really need to separate glucose from fructose. Glucose is an essential nutrient that the body is programmed to preserve at all cost...

Only 6? Amateur!!!!! I had a lot more than 6 in my first order and then went back for more. I refuse to count. Somehow Belinda loaded my shopping cart when I wasn't looking. At least that is the excuse I'm going to give DH if I don't get the chance to hide my packages before he sees them...

tlc, I haven't bought the set yet. I returned the first disk to Kineticflix recently. I looked at my notes in my to buy list. I thought that either the cardio or the endurance workout followed by the strength workout would make for a nice hour long workout. There is a good mix of agility...

I tried the first disk from Kineticflix. These workouts aren't like insanity or P90X3. Each disk has a cardio, a strength and an endurance workout. They run about 30 minutes each. I classify them as bodyweight workouts with a functional twist and a good cardio element. The impact isn't...

Zero drop means that the back of the shoe is not elevated compared to the front. They are at the same height hence the zero drop. Essentially, they are equivalent to walking barefoot. Most shoes even fairly flat ones have a slight elevation. The elevation shifts the weight forward (change in...

TurquoiseEyes, don't think of it as a flaw! It is a feature, a built in reminder to exercise. Otherwise, you know you are going to feel bad and your back is going to hurt. Of all the flaws one can inherit, this one is as benign as it gets. The only thing to remember is no matter how hard you...
