I couldn’t have said it better!

This wasn’t my first Cathe step workout but I did and still do love this one. I originally had the VHS and upgraded to the DVD. It’s interesting that you also only do 30 minutes of step and for more or less the same reason.

I did the Cardio and Weights step premix this morning. It’s my all time favorite because I’m able to hop, skip, jump, turn and dance to my heart’s content while working out to fun music. It’s really more fun than work out. I actually used to love the imax step workouts but I lose too much...

Good luck to everyone on the fence with making their decisions. I’m holding onto my preorder and continuing with my rotation plans.

I’m having a bit of a chuckle here. My fitness level is advanced intermediate to advanced depending on what I’m doing. LMR actually made me stronger when I’ve pulled in some of my favorite exercises. Fluidity pull-ups, full hanging triceps dips, Callanetics open closes and flat backs. I’m...

That’s a shame but I understand.

I’m not sure that this will make sense. I don’t actually see LMR as a system that I need to make more difficult. I’m not saying that anyone doesn’t have a right to a different opinion so I hope you’ll allow me to express mine. For me Functional Fitness is more of a different Exercise Genre all...

I’ve actually changed up my workouts for the 4th week of the LMR/Lite rotation. I didn’t anticipate how the steady slate of LMR workouts along with the rotation using some of my least favorite Lite workouts would impact my enjoyment factor. Well, this week has also been crazy busy so getting...

Yes, my present gloves are fine except Velcro is going. Thanks for sharing your experience. I really appreciate it.

Do you have them? Do you like them? The wrist support gloves look really nice but I’m wondering if the wrist is stiff when you do push ups. The lighter gloves look as though they have cuffs rather than a velcro wrap closure. I have really small wrists and I’m not sure that a cuff would hold a...

If it’s ok I’m going to lurk in your check in. I’m not following this monthly rotation but your insights on the various DVDs you’ve been discussing are priceless. I’m in Week 3 of a hybrid of the LMR/Lite Rotation building up to LMR/ICE and then STS2.0/LMR. I’m finding a need/desire to sub in...

You look great! What Cathe work outs and size weights do you use? I wish I could lift heavy and stay that compact. A steady diet of heavy lifting for me will mean an increase in pant size up to two sizes. I’m older but still see easy gains in hypertrophy. I’m planning to begin a personal...

Look up mechanotransduction. Also here’s a great blog post by Katy Bowman. Finally, ever notice that most people diagnosed with osteopenia will have one hip or shoulder that’s worse than the other? That’s not from lifting heavier weights with one leg or arm than the other. ;) It’s usually from...

Thank you for mentioning this. Good information.

Someone may have already asked for this but I request that you work to the beat of the music. It goes along with Kellyro’s request. It’s near impossible for me to work off the beat of the music - it’s actually painful. But when I can’t see the screen it’s even tougher.

I totally agree with what Debinmi just wrote. Don’t be afraid to back off and rest. If it’s the fix you need you’ll know it fairly quickly and you won’t lose your fitness level especially if you consider the restorative activities Debinmi listed.

I agree with the recommendation for labs to assess possible causes. I had a similar situation when I was in my late 40s. I remember being in the car driving to work and the only thing I could think about was being able to finish the day and get to bed. I was vegan at the time and it turned out...

Thank you but the kudos goes to Cathe. She really outdid herself with this series. I just faithfully followed her rotation.

On Sunday I finished the LMR 8 Week Rotation and started the LMR/Lite 4 Week Rotation. I finally did my last Segmented Body Composition reading and couldn’t be happier! I gained a modest amount of muscle and lost fat. Previously my right and left arms and right and left legs were slightly...

I’m in NH. My shipping was free. I only ordered the DVDs.
