    ? Video selection

    Brenda, I really like Power Hour! I also have the CTX series, although I admit I don't use it as often as the Intensity one, and now of course Body Blast. It's great though if you only have a short time in which to workout! After I finish this Intensity series/Body Blast series rotation I'm...

    The Stability Ball Curse!

    LOL!! Bobbi I have tears running down my face reading your post!! My daughter Nik is almost 13, and it sounds like our daughters are both experts at making messes!! Whenever she loses something now, we tell her to go look in "the black hole". She does NOT think it's funny, but I swear things...

    Video rotation

    Diane I just saw your question, and I'm sorry I didn't answer before. When I do Boot Camp as a cardio workout, yes I just use lighter weights. When I do it as a cardio and weights workout, I go heavier. Also, I have since changed the rotation a bit, to make it more balanced. Also, because of...

    Rained on Parade

    Do you mean it's near the center, on the front of your neck, where your trachea (windpipe) is? You do have lymph nodes there, if what you're describing is where I'm accurately picturing it. Try putting a warm compress on it and see if that makes it feel better. If it doesn't go down in a few...

    Calling all Weight Watchers' .....

    Okay .. I got a little curious, so I just tried it. I weighed myself with as full a breath as I could hold, then I weighed myself again after exhaling as completely as I possibly could. The difference? ..... (drum roll, please! }( .... NOTHING. Carol :-) (just feeling silly this...

    The Stability Ball Curse!

    Bobbi your story made me laugh only because I know that "void" so well!! Nik is ... well, let's just say she's not a person who is concerned with putting things back where they belong, and we refer to her room as "the black hole". Once things are "lost" in there, they are never seen or heard...

    New Cathe Convert

    Hey Diane - Welcome to the forum!! There are lots of us Firm to Cathe converts here!! I too thought I was in "great" shape until I did my first Cathe tape. WHEW!! My Firms are collecting dust, and I've given a lot of them away, including the strange and bizarre FitPrime tapes! (A statement...

    Update on Self Esteem Post

    Yes Bobbi I am an RN! I've been one for 17 years, and I absolutely love it!! I've always worked Critical Care, starting off in Neonatal ICU when I first graduated, and then moving to adult ICU a couple years after Nik was born. It's a very challenging profession, but also a very rewarding...

    Update on Self Esteem Post

    Bobbi, my daughter was diagnosed with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder shortly after the events of 9/11. She had symptoms as far back as 4 years old, but we just didn't see it for what it was. My husband and I are both RN's, but when it's your own child, you don't see it as easily. Anyway, she's...

    Rained on Parade

    Leslie, it could be a cyst, or perhaps an enlarged lymph node, or just about anything, but I agree with the others on here. If it doesn't go away, please have it looked at. Does it hurt? Is it tender? Where on your neck is it? Lymph nodes can get very enlarged when your body is fighting an...

    KICK, PUNCH & CRUNCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Cathe, you do jump out of the screen and high five me every time I workout with you ... you just don't know it! LOL! Yours are the only workout tapes I have that Nik will do with me! When I first got the Intensity Series she was still home for summer vacation, and we did "Boot Camp"...

    My new Idol

    Leslie, I couldn't agree more! With so many "celebrities" jumping on the fitness bandwagon these days, but not actually living what they preach, Cathe remains a shining TRUE example of fitness, health, and a gentle heart and spirit, all combined into a goddess of a woman!! If she wrote a book...
