Anybody got any ideas of how to make Swimming a really tough workout? I love laps.. but I don't feel anywhere near as worked out as I do doing Cathe. I'm going on holiday for three weeks soon, and although I'll be taking my dvds, the weather and lack of airconditioning will make swimming my...

Thanks soo much A jock. I haven't got any machines.. but I hadn't thought of using the step. I will definitely be trying this workout tomorrow :) It sounds soooo fun. And It will never be the same twice.. there's so much variety! It's like a dvd with three hundred (a little exaggeration)...

Thanks A jock, that's amazing! I haven't got access to a track... or anywhere I can run outside really... what do you suggest as a substitute? Just jogging on the spot?

Really? I've been put off this workout just because I wasn't sure if it would be as intense as her others.. no particular reason... just by the description I think. But I LOVE LOVE LOVE AMY :) And the price of this workouts is good :) I will definitely consider this. Thanks A Jock. And Kick...

How about Hardcore extreme? That combines Imax 3 and Kickmax AND high step challenge... is that intense? Thanks again.. everyone's being very helpful :) I do have Amy's Kickbox Surge, and I LOVE it sooo much. i also love the HIIT dvds and CCC... I'm just looking for another that's up...

Thanks for the replies :) How do Kick Punch and Crunch and Kickmax comapre? Are they anywhere near as intense?

I'm looking to add a new cardio dvd to my collection.. but I want a really intense one. So, please could you answer the following? If you could choose your top five most intense cardio dvds.. what would they be? I'd appreciate if nobody mentioned any beachbody products :( I have Insanity :)...

Well.. this week... 4.5 hours strength, and about the samecardio actually :) I didn't know I was balanced! He hee

Ooooh! Thank you sooo much! I'm sooo excited :eek: And I'm glad it wasn't just me... and that they've now filmed the workouts! It's all sooo exciting. I'm sure non-exercisers would think it quite sad, that I'm this excited.. but I'm sure everyone on here will understand :)

I'm just wondering if anyone else is having trouble getting onto her forum? I was sooo excited baout the filming date on the 4th of june, but I haven't been able to see any of the 'scoop' about filming, because the forum doesn't seem to be working :( Anyone else having trouble? Also, if...

I understand that it's usually said with the best intentions, but I can relate to how you're feeling. I began to lose weight, because I felt criticised for being overweight.. and every small amount I lost I go 'you have to be careful', 'don't get too thin', and i just thought..'what would make...

Rapid breath... can I ask if you've noticed improvements since taking vitamins for IBS? I suffer a lot from IBS...what benefits do your supplements give you?

OOOOH! I would! I reaaaly reaaaallly would! I love the intensity... but i'd rather not have to do two dvds every night :) I like my workouts to be a good 90 minutes, so I'm all for longer more intense workouts! (i might regret saying that! he hee) :D

I think Amy Bento usually looks sweaty...which I love...I get the impression that she doesn't stop filming between sections, or at least not for long: In the Ring, she's quite sweaty Kickbox Xtreme, she gets very sweaty, Kickbox Surge she's very sweaty, You can't see it so much, but in...

That really does help. I already create my own rotations in advance, but I always 'tag' a little extra onto the end. BUT, from your idea, i've decided a plan of action :) I usually write up the results from my HRM in a diary I keep, because I've never been a fan of doing it on the computer. My...

Thank you Kirstin, and Jenn, for such wonderful replies :) They're so encouraging :) Thankyou. I will definitely take what you said one board, Kristin, about it being perhaps beneficial to change up the calorie burn :) I think you're right Jenn, healthiness is definitely an obsession (a...

I can't help but feel that my Heart Rate Monitor is bad for me. Before I had it, I would ensure that I always execrised a certain amount of time. Since I've had it, I make sure I burn a certain amount of calories... for example, each day I have my 'minimum burn'. But, the problem is, it keeps...

It REALLY is a great program. I have dodgy knees, but I only had problems with Insanity in the very last week, and I think that's because I had to miss my rest day that week. BUT, even if you don't follow the program as-is, it's soo good. I can't believe how much fitter I am.. and I feel STRONG...

To me, beauty is in the eyes. And the eyes never age, so age really doesn't matter. Having said that, attractiveness, to me, declines if the person looks like they've been throgh a lot. That doesn't mean it is less if they are old, but if they are haggered. For example, with someone who has a...

I love Amy :) He All Cardio Hi Lo Knockout is my all time favourite Amy, followed closely by Kickbox surge. However, All cardio hi/lo knockout is not really kickboxing, only the intervals are, and even then, it's very hi-lo-ish. If you're looking for a more kickbox style, then In the Ring and...
