    Tips for mastering Tuck Jumps?

    I finally understand why I have such problems with tuck jumps. I do much better with endurance type exercises and had already figured out that I must have a higher ratio of slow twitch muscle fibers. I had not yet related it to the "tuck jump." Hope your recovery is progressing. Rhonda

    Weights vs Aerobics

    Hi! As the original author of this thread, I figured that Cathe did not answer because she did not want to go there..... I was asking for advice that Cathe felt went beyond her level of expertise and responsibility. I think Cathe posted the rotations to give some some options of how one...

    Cathe--concern about August rotation

    In the past Cathe has geared her workouts primarily to the advanced exerciser. Only recently has she had more options for people at the beginner/intermediate level. I also am very concerned about this rotation: 1. It is very intense and advanced. I know my knees cannot take it. I agree...

If you look at any other the older movie stars, you will notice that their eyes seem to have less definition and less visible lashes than then when they were young. However, you can hide it with use of a good eyeliner and mascara. Make...

    RE: I've got first dibs on the back row of the classes ... I'm assuming that everybody will be focusing on Cathe. The good part of being in the back of the room is that you can see how other people accommodate moves...it can help you make your workout more effective. I am not sure how I feel...

    Why do I still get winded climbing the stairs!?!

    I was even considering calling my doctor. My solution was to run up and down the stairs a few times a day. I guess you could call it "stair training." I also never take escalators or elevators (Except at some of the Washington, D.C. metro stations because they are the definitely the "stairways...

    Dips off of bench with legs elevated

    I have been doing your May rotation. It is great. However, could you please clarify what you mean by "Dips off of bench with legs elevated" when working chest. Somebody suggested doing something similar to a triceps dip with the step and mini-step. I personally did more push-ups with my...

    Who minds the ship?

    Cathe: I know it is impossible to do everything. When you are not available who monitors to be sure that postings are appropriate? On the other hand, perhaps we monitor outselves and no outside monitoring is necessary? Rhonda

    Artificial Sweeteners?

    Artificial sweeteners trigger me to overeat. They only satisfy me temporarily and I begin looking for sugar sources. In my opinion, everybody should consider eliminating they from their diets. Just my opinion. Rhonda

    WW Core Plan

    I started this program about two weeks ago. I am a lifetime member. I think it is the best thing going. By eating the core foods, one does not have to keep a log. One only needs to keep track of the extra points tshe eats each week. I think it promotes very clean eating. I can eat the...
