Sorry for this dumb question. I'm sure it has been asked before, but I have been away from the Cathe site for some months. I am starting STS (again) and I suuccessfully put up onto my calendar the STS program. But the progress chart doesn't show up on my Carhe page. I have clicked the "show...

Megan: I teach at a university, and give academic advice to young people,and am an ameteur musician. I concratulate you on your ambitions, and for a person so young. A few points: 1. Go for your dreams. Keep working at your music as best you can. 2. I agree with Angie above, that you might...

Bam: I never rent DVDs, but here is my experience. I typically buy movie DVDs, that I like, after seeing them on the movie channel. And trying to save money, I buy them used on Amazon.com. I made the mistake of buying a used copy of "The Box" (2010) (a fairly good movie starring Cameron...

Elle, Thanks for dropping me a line, and for your encouragement. I have been struggling to get back into an exercize routine the past several months. I have a slight, but nagging cold that hasn't gone away in the past two months. I haven't seen much in the way of discussions. on the forum page...

Originally from the Pgh area, I always root for the Steelers. But after the Big Ben problems:mad: , I am not all that concerned if they lose. I hope it is a close, exciting game though, for the fans' sake.

I am older than most on this site, and I remember well when his black-and-white exercize show came on TV on the ABC network, in 1959. His life is documented in this Wiki article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_LaLanne My late mom thought, at the time, the exercize show was revolutionary...

I agree with Melissa, beemerjen1 and Joejack -- and I hope the Steelers win. And one day Big Ben will see the light and will be a credit to the city. -- David

Candi: I agree sympathize with your concerns, and agree with Linda's and Cocob1's comments, as well as the others. Medical commentary in the media suggests that exercize and eating right are the best way to lose weight and to venture towards good health. I'm not one to talk. During an...

I agree with Lisa about Maximum Intensity Strength being a great workout. I like also Power Hour, the Pyramid set, and the Slow and Heavy set. I recommend buyin STS Today Body, and if you like that, then buy the STS series. (One other idea is to buy the first 60% R1M set first, to see if you...

Sunday check-in Hi gang. Just checking in with this week's program. Again, if I post my program here, I am "committed" to keeping to it, and generally this seems to work: S: STS Meso 1 Day 1 "c,s,b" M: day off with two students paint my "free store" room and bathroom T: G. Miller "Simply...

Report him to the police Janie: I agree with the majority on this thread. Report him to the police. Also, try to keep in touch with the police as to progress of their investigation. -- David

We're rooting for you Bridget: Just a quick note that we are all pulling for you! If you can afford it, why not try STS? It's a fairly demanding program, as Nancy is explaining to us. Next week I will be trying 2 STS disks, and I promise to describe what it is like. (I won''t do any legs STS...

Use enough weight to tire you for the entire set. scrapquilter, Haven't heard from you for a while! How much weight to use? Not Cathe here, and I hope Cathe or some Cathe friends chime in! It depends which strength DVD you own. But you should use enough weight to tire you -- or to give...

I agree about SIM 1,2,3 I just want to mention that I still have the old Step in Motion VHS tapes (1,2,3). I still use them too -- once and a while -- and they are still fun after all of these years. :) And the tapes still work fine(!). -- David

Dizziness could come from different sources Marlene: I recommend seeing your doctor, or at least checking the internet. I have a mild case of BPPV (benign paroxsysmal positional vertigo), which is described here: http://www.medicinenet.com/vertigo/page9.htm For me, I get a touch of...

Also, read up on your employer on the internet... Debbie, I agree with the other comments in this thread. One more thing, study up on your employer on the internet, and be prepared to ask questions back to your interview. One question a good interviewer always asks is "Do you have any...

Sunday morning check-in... Hi guys: Friday was a good day for me. I finished a two-month long academic paper figuring how much extra Ontario and British Columbia families will pay with the new HST sales tax (about $290-$320 a year). On Friday afternoon I was busy e-mailing prospective editors...

Some enjoyable interval DVDs Kariev and others: As for doable, enjoyable interval videos with light weights, my two favorites at the moment are: Kelly-Coffey Meyer "The shape of things to come: complete cardio sculpting" and Jari Love's "extremely ripped 1000". The first video is excellent...

Sometimes complex choreography/poor cueing kariev: Like you I enjoy doing interval videos, mixing aerobics with light weight work during "aerobics" days. I have been experimenting with Firm videos, but I have found the quality uneven. The choreography is often too complicated -- even the...
