I just received classical stretch (TV Series) and I was wondering how to incorporate these workouts into my rotation. I workout in the morning (4:30am). Would it be better to do these right after I workout, when my muscles are warm? There is a short warm up before the stretching, but it is...

I did Push Pull for the first time yesterday and today my hands are very tense and sore, especially my right hand. It hurts when I hold anything to large in my hand (i.e. a glass of water). It also hurts when I bend my thumbs back. I didn't use weights that I haven't used before. Any advice...

RE: ring of fire I definitely want to try this. I have the turbo jam workout dvd and while I don't use it, there is one aspect of the tape that I do like: the instructor constantly reminds you to tuck your pelvis in and tighten your abs. I have incorporated this into my Cathe dvds and I have...

Go to advancedworkouts.com There is a whole section dedicated to spinning dvds. I have not tried any of these. Hope this helps!

100% whole grains would be considered clean foods. Whole grains contain a large amount of fiber, which is extremely important to a healthy diet. I often eat oats (not instant) and pita bread, both of which are whole grain. I also eat the whole wheat shredded wheat cereal. I would recommend...

Hello. I am doing the March '07 Intermediate Rotation and I have 40 mins of cycling, indoor or outdoor, scheduled for tomorrow. I don't have a bike (can't even ride one) and I hate the indoor one I have (boring). Can anyone give me some suggestions as to what I could use to substitute? I...

I don't think that's a bad idea at all. I don't like to do standing leg work because it often hurts my knees. I love floor work and I often really feel it the next day or so. I particularly love outer thigh work when you lie on one side and lift the top leg. Ouch! I think that as long as...

The Hardcore Series Rotation is March '05. There are three rotations: Muscle endurance, strength building, and fat loss. They all look tough!

Let me start by saying congratulations on your success! I also own my own business (pet sitting) and I understand the work involved. As far as Wal Mart goes, they have done a lot of good for a lot of people. I am so tired of hearing how they ruin small towns. There was a report on the...

I own one of Jari Love's dvds (the one that claims you will burn 1000 calories). It is very tedious and the cardio segments are just awful (unoriginal and uninspiring). However, I did feel it the next day, but no more than I do after doing a Cathe workout.

That sounds more like menstrual pains. I'm experiencing the same thing now, esp. the pain in my lower back and hips. If it was the spinach, you would most likely experience diarrhea and blood in your feces. I wouldn't worry about it.

I actually had to miss my PUB workout today due to severe menstrual pains early this morning. I will most likely do it later today, if I feel better. If not, I can do it tomorrow and do the 35 minute run that is scheduled later in the day.

Hello everyone. I did Kick, Punch, and Crunch for the first time on Sunday and during the workout, my feet got pretty sore (especially during the front-to-back shuffling). Afterwards and the next day during PLB they felt fine. Today, I did Low Impact Step, but with an 8" height (I ate 3 of...

I did KPC for the first time yesterday morning (4:30am!!!) and I loved it! Before I started with Cathe, I did Taebo. The moves were just too balistic and his cueing was terrible (i.e. 10 roundhouses on one side, 7 on the other...awful). Plus, he was a little to preachy for me at times. So, I...

I prefer eating 6-7 meals a day. When I eat 2-3, I usually eat at around 11am, then not again until 4pm! By 4, I am starving and just too impatient to make something healthy. By eating every few hours, I am not starving, just mildly hungry and can enjoy something healthy. I've increased my...

I think the original poster's comment on being patient is very important. When I first started working out, I figured it would take a few months for me to be the size I wanted (I only wanted lose about 15 pounds). While I did lose most of the weight quickly, I am still seeing major...

I have very strong abs (too bad you can't see them)x( I think the strength came from the Tamilee Web workouts I did on Exercise TV on Demand. I don't know if they are still on there, but there were 3 that I used to do pretty frequently. She does a lot of moves that works the obliques...

Check the video rotations forum. There is a 3 month beginner rotation. I would also recommend high step circuit and low impact step in addition to the dvds on the rotation.

RE: Tracy Effinger Wow...I take back what I said earlier about not liking the ab workout. I feel it now!!! Especially my sides (from the side-bending). Ouch!!! I used 3's this morning and that worked well for me. I'll probably switch to 5's in a month or so. Sarah, I don't like the...

RE: Tracy Effinger I just tried this workout this morning and I like it. I love how fast paced it is and I really like Tracy. However, I don't like the abdominal section. I just didn't feel it. Maybe I'm doing it wrong... I love that she keeps reminding me to tuck my pelvis under because...
