    Shakespeare

    Very. I love to read him, watch the plays and watch the movie adaptations and the ballets! I don't like the modern re-writes, like the DeCaprio version of Romeo and Juliet, for example, *at all* One of my very favourite adaptations is Much Ado About Nothing. I remember going to see that on...

    Red faced??

    Me too but the fitter I get, the less red I get. I can do Cardio & Weights and end up pink whereas IMAX 2 still leaves me a dark red! I'd love to know why it happens and why only to some? ATB, - Lisa :)

    Cathe...Need Help Slimming Down Legs/Buttocks

    Heya Lynn, I'm not Cathe, obivously :) but my legs are my problem area too and I find the best thing for them is a combination of lower body strength workouts and kickboxing. Step also works well for me but kickboxing has done wonders for the tops of my thighs along with a whole lot of lunges...

    Preorder the New High Step

    Awww Ann, I understand. We used to have a Bassett and as she got older those little legs and that long back of hers needed all the help she could get. We also has an Olde English Sheep Dog at the same time and they looked adorable together and we all miss them a great deal. I think it's sweet...

    What do you use if you don't have the High STep for Cathe's Videos

    I don't have a high step or something of equivalent height so I either substitue with my normal step or I'll just do lunges instead. My legs are still worked *hard* so I don't feel I'm missing out on much. I'm looking forward to getting the high step when it comes out though. ATB, - Lisa :)

    Jane P. asked: Which one of the following is the toughest workout?

    I voted for "Boot Camp." It's the only workout where I've actually shouted out loud and pointed at my telly and said "What?! You want me to do that? After doing this?!" It's only do-able for me when I do it as part of the Gauntlet. Well, okay Gauntlet is probably the tougher but it just feels...

    need moral support.....

    RE: JJ and Lisa! Thank you so much to all of you :) It's easy to marginalise your own pain and just "cope" and I often forget just how much I've been through and how much I still need to fix! At the time all this happened to me, I didn't know anybody who had been through something similar and...

    need moral support.....

    JJ, thank you too for your kind words :) I'm glad to have been of some support to you and you're very welcome to e-mail me any time you want to chat or swap notes if you want. I don't think you're wimpy to "complain" about your neck! A neck injury is very debilitating! My neck was bad after the...

    Modifying for back & knee pain???

    RE: Modifying for back & knee pain??? Hi Melanie, I was in a car accident in '99 and have back problems too. These are the things that help me work out: -- Good trainers: go to a specialist if you can to make sure you get the right size and the right type. -- A good Chiropractor: try and...

    Am I too tall?

    Hi Katy, I don't think you're too tall!! I have no idea how much I weigh but I am taller than you and I have been doing step workouts off and on since 1991 without problems. Our ceiling is high enough not to matter so the only trouble I have is with the light fittings, which are too low once...

    need moral support.....

    {{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} Yes I have and more than once. In '99 I was at my own personal best, which I had attained 3 years earlier, maintaining it until the day of the solar eclipse in August that year. On that day I got into the lift on the 11th floor, the lights went out and the...

    Feeling sick when working out

    This happens to me too but only very rarely these days. Are you getting enough water? Is your workout room well ventilated? How long do you wait after eating before you start your workout? If none of these apply to you, I think you should talk this over with your Doctor because it may be...
