Not to do a kickboxing DVD such as KM or KPC and then do an upper body workout such as MM (upper body premix) or PUB in the same day? I am trying to work up a rotation using the dvd's I have and didn't know if that was a good idea or not. thanks for any help from you experienced exercisers...

RE: What's your favorite low impact w/o (Cathe's or any... Thanks for your suggestions!! I have lo max but I can't do that all the time. Just looking for some variety. Paula

I'm looking for some low impact stuff to add in for when my knees or back seem to be a little "tired". Any suggestions? Paula

I bought some at the local health food store. Can I cook it and eat it like oatmeal?

There are other workouts I like, but they offer you just that, a workout. Cathe offers you a challenge. With the premixes you can change them up to continue challenging yourself for a long time. On top of that she is so smooth, polished and professional. Throw in the fact that they give great...

The only kickboxing DVD of Cathes I have done so far is KickMax. Can someone who has both kickmax and KPC tell me how they differ? Is KPC going to be a lot harder? Thanks, http://www.picturetrail.com/luckeelaydee Paula

Thanks so much for your honest info. I am going to work out with Cathe for another 6 months to a year before I make a decision. Sounds like the recovery time and time away from exercise are more than I expected! But I am happy that no one has a noticable scar/dimple where they were "lipoed"...

Now I am not overweight per se, just saddlebags and a slight tummy bulge and slight under the back of the bra flaps that never seem to go away. I feel like if I loose too much more weight I would be underweight (size 4 now). I am trying to add lean muscle, nothing seems to have taken care of...

Remember our thread about building muscle before leaning out? Well I have been trying the "bulking" phase for about 2-3 weeks now. More weights than usual (moved up to a 15 lb dumbell and 35 lb bb on some stuff, now don't laugh it's all relative right?) and more calories (zigzag about 1900 vs...

I have only done the pyramid lower body once and I used the barbell cause I wanted to go as heavy as I could at least once in awhile. But when I do the MM if that is my second or third workout in the week I use 10 lb dumbells for the lower body instead of the bar and it works fine. I'm trying...

Howabout none! I understand if you're like me that's between difficult and impossible. What about swimming or pilates on the mat or possibly walking and upper body weights? Let your knee rest, it will appreciate it. Paula

Pinky: I'm crushed. I was singing so sweetly ;-)

LIfting and shaping the derriere? Have you seen noticeable results with any one of her workouts? Swimsuit season is almost here yikes! Paula

:o AHEMM...... HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR PINKY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU (AND MANY MORE) Did you hear me singing from my house Pinky? See I sang really loud it's all in caps! Have the greatest B-day ever. Paula:D

OK Shelley, I'm going to have to trust you on this one. Sports authority has a high step for right around 50 dollars. I am just hoping it's not too intense for me. I am excited though cause this means it's something I haven't been doing that I need to do! Paula

you know, I have been doing MM but that is the only one I have that hits the lower body with weight. So I guess I just need to do more and get used to it. I think I may keep on this regular step a few times before I go out and buy the high step. http://www.picturetrail.com/luckeelaydee Paula

I didn't have the high step. I used my club step on the highest I have, 2 risers each side. My heart was RACING when I finished the squats and lunges. I am in pretty good shape, do lomax and HIIT cardio on a regular basis. Has anyone else experienced this? I am hesitant now to try this on...

This thread is so true! What really cracks me up is when people truly compliment me and say things like "I can't believe you're 48 and have 4 kids, how to you do it?" When I proceed to tell them how I do it, very shortly their eyes glaze over and they get into this stupor. I assume they are...

Fitmom: when you say at the highest level are you talking about 2 risers on each side? I also have the same issue. I have PLB and haven't used it yet cause I don't have a high step. Thanks, Paula

Shonie: THanks for the warning. When I started lifting weights a few years ago, my thighs started to get big and I freaked. I never went over 5 lbs with my legs after that. I wear a size 5 and I like staying at that size. But I won't get upset this time if my pants get tight for awhile...
