    Pure Strength vs Slow & Heavy

    Hi, I would definately recommend the S&H series. I will be 52 next month and have been doing Cathe workouts for almost a year in conjunction with other workouts. I now have great definition on my body overall. I do rotations to mix up my workouts and surprise my body and muscles. CTX...

    Question about form on lunges

    RE: knee clicking Roe, Francine - thank you. I've printed out this thread to keep for future use. For all my workouts I use New Balance aerobic shoes; they provide excellent arch support and provide excellent traction for stepping, among other exercises. I could be overcompensating on my...

    Lower Back Pain

    Excellent!! Thanks for letting us know of your progress. As a fellow back sufferer (or should I say former?)watching my form has greatly improved my lower back and I now really "feel" my hamstrings and glute area when I'm doing the deadlifts. Take care Mommy. :D Iris

    Cathe's trying to kill me!

    I can attest to this!!! Not only are we here, we're stronger, fit and healthy and kicking butt at the gym. I had a physical therapist ask me who trained me... I just answered back - Cathe - that's who! He had no clue until I mentioned Cathe's website and then a few days later he admitted that...

    Question about form on lunges

    RE: knee clicking Thank you so much Francine you're the best! In answer to your questions, I have never had an injury to my knees and I did have my knees looked at by my ortho doc (he's also my doc for my lower back, which by the way is 99% better and I'm back working out with my Cathe). It...

    Question about form on lunges

    Thank you Francine - I will definately print this thread also - very informative. Quick question: When I am doing lunges or leg presses I feel discomfort on the inner side of right knee and sometimes days after. I think I read on another thread something about a "clicking" sound in your knee...

    shoes

    Hi Angie, Yes they do. The insert in the shoe is removeable in case the wearer is using orthotics. The shoe is snug but not overbearing. They have a website: www.newbalance.com where you can see all the different types of shoes available. What I love from my pair is that even though they...

    shoes

    Hi, New Balance has a great shoe called the Cross Trainer - it's great for aerobics/stepping and also good for running (if this is part of your cardio). Has great shock absorbing cushioning that is removeable for washing and they hold up really well. Iris :D

    Please Read ... diet motivation?

    Lower Back Pain

    Hi, I am totally sympathetic to your pain - read the thread "Doctor says no to high impact". I've been undergoing physical therapy for several weeks and my pain has pretty much gone away. I guess dead lifts with Cathe vary from person to person. In my situation my therapist has suggested...

    Doctor says no high impact workouts

    RE: UPDATE: Doctor says no high impact workouts Hi All, I did another session of PT with Dave last night. Suffice it to say that this morning I am "sore" but it's all good. I'm sore because we actually had a session of weight training together with the stability ball. Cathe, if you get a...

    How often... Pyramids??

    Hi Terri, I personally rotate PUB/PLB no more than 2 times a week. In between I work in cardio, pilates and yoga for stretching and I only go up on the pyramids with heavier weights. I have great definition (finally!) after about 9 months of steady weight training. Hope this helps. Take...

    Coffee anyone!

    Another cup? Thick middle from drinking coffee - if that were true I'd have the biggest tummy on record since I've been drinking coffee ever since I can remember - I'm hispanic and black coffee in our household is like drinking water. I drink mine usally black (having my 2nd cup) and although...
