Honestly, I would buy another X10 DVD - that is one of my favorite because it's so much fun and intense. Also, since you've been working your way up and you're at #3, I would continue my progress to be able to do all 5!! You can definitely reach it, so go ahead and buy another one and continue...

Hi Jen Den, many years ago I had a bad relationship with food that required therapy and something that my therapist said that totally clicked that goes with what you said that sometimes people look at food as the friend, lover, etc and it's hard to give it up, so my therapist said that "The only...

Jen Den, you have said the most reasonable, sensible and doable way to live, lose weight (keep the weight off too) and enjoy life. :)

Hi Kristi, that is my girl kitty, her name is Nani; she is a total lap cat - I love her. Thank you!

Honestly, with either one - you will love them. Both are great workouts and fun. So if I just had to pick one, I would pick PHA 3, it has more cardio than the other PHAs, and Total Body Giant Set is more strength training but it can still get your heart rate going up!! Again, whichever one...

Hi Kristi, here's a total body that I truly enjoy. I do this one 3 times per week to give my muscles 48 hours to rest. It's challenging but it's very good.

Polar is still my favorite. I have the same one which is 25 years old and it still works perfectly.

Hi Lisa, please take the time heal completely and to be safe to workout. You don't want to risk hurting yourself then you'll be out longer than 2 weeks. I had a total hysterectomy years ago and it took 8-10 weeks of no exercising but once I was able to exercise again, I had no problems with...

Hi Kim, I don't know the answers regarding the chest strap but for your batteries I would never change them myself. I've had my Polar for over 25 years and I've always sent it in for battery replacement. I had another model before this one that I have now and I replaced the battery and it...

Hi Lanette, anytime there is a move like split jumps, jumping jacks, plie squats I'll do it on the rebounder. You may bounce a little more but the more you use it, more control you will have. Even those moves, not sure what Cathe calls them can't remember now but I think it's "tuck jumps" and...

Hi Lanette, I'm 61 years old and have been working out with Cathe for years. Of course, I've had to adjust many of the high impact workouts by either using a trampoline or adding a weighted vest and modifying the move to a lower impact version. So my favorites are: Xtrain, Strong and Sweaty...

Hi, I also use a rebounder for all of the high impact moves on Cathe's step workouts, etc. and it totally raises by heart rate nicely. Sometimes I will put on a 4 pound weighted vest to increase my heart rate a little more. I highly recommend using a rebounder for those high impact moves - it...

Hi Jkg501, I am an early morning exerciser for years. I just find it easier to start my day with a Cathe workout. I must admit that I do find it more challenging to get up when it's still dark outside during the winter - I get up at 5:15 AM or 5:30 AM also but still continue to do so...

Hi Cherylann, I feel the same way as you do about keeping cardio and muscle building separate. This is definitely a great series. I also love and oldie but a definite goodie is Pyramid Upper and Lower Body DVDs, it uses the pyramid system which is lots of fun and very challenging. Take care.

Aquajock, this post was awesome and so true. Cathe is the best out there - I've tried others but no one really compares to Cathe. I hope that she also continues to do what she does so well with fitness. Love her!!! Again, great post!!

Bayerngirl, thank you so much, this is just beautiful!! :):)

Hello, eye doctor told me that I have scar tissue in the gel-like substance that fills our eyes and the only way to remove it having surgery - vitrectomy. This surgery is a 30 minute out-patient procedure (local anesthesia), where they go into that gel-like area of the eye and remove the scar...

This looks great but I know I will not be able to do these - too many sit-ups for my back. :-(

Hi NorthSouth, I totally understand your concern. I had major surgery a few years back and couldn't exercise for 8 weeks. But I looked at it as a fresh new start and my body got back in shape much sooner than expected. Please give your body the time it needs to heal, if you rush in to exercise...

Hi Aqua Girl, yes I got the same email and I responded with a "haven't received it yet". Never got that before when I ordered the calendar. Strange.
