Definitely light weights on the Stability Ball and yes, I had the BodyBlady series on VHS before upgrading to DVD. I don’t lift really heavy anymore. I leaned out a whole lot over the last year and my muscles look bigger. Probably all smoke and mirrors but I’m happy to maintain.

I have a full size step with regular and incline risers. Last year I treated myself to Cathe’s step mat. We also have a folding bench that adjusts to various angles. It’s quick to set up/adjust/take down and stands upright out of the way when not in use. DH always uses the bench. I use one or...

I just want those discs in my hot little hands!

I guess it’s a big secret. I thought maybe he was related to Cathe.

Who is Jesse?

What strikes me is the good form and ability to modify you see in the participants. Chances are excellent that they learned that doing Cathe workouts. That’s a huge feather in her cap and a testament to her ability to program and instruct exercise. Wow!

When I successfully did this a few times in a row I was barefoot. I didn’t think to mention it before because I tend to be barefoot more often than not. :oops:

I tried it and can do it pretty easily but I need to position the roller carefully between my feet. I also do a ton of this kind of work and am so interested in Cathe’s take on it.

I used one years ago when I used to lift really heavy. They definitely make a difference. What I immediately like about the STS lifting belt is the waist contour. My old belt was rectangular and it used to dig into my lower ribs because of my small waist. These look like they would support but...

That’s really interesting and I didn’t realize that either. You are my go to chaptering expert!

Yes, thanks for the reminder. Given the shorter length of some of the bonuses I can see your concern now.

What? You’re cooking rubber? What for? :):oops:

I think they always do. If they’re doing premixes they’d pretty much have to, right?

This looks like it may be the full expression of the pose. I bet Cathe slowly guides us into it encouraging us to stop where appropriate for our individual body. I seem to remember this pose from another Cathe mobility or yoga practice but I can’t for the life of me remember which one so I...

I could be wrong but I have a feeling that once we experience the props we may realize that we can sneak them into other workouts to make moves easier, harder or in some cases safer for us.

It just gets better with every picture you share. Cathe, I think you outdid yourself and I can’t wait to experience all the fun and functional goodness you’ve packed into this series!

Congratulations! You look fantastically fit!

I actually like that Butts & Guts chapter! It’s one of my favorite add ons. I do use the new loops with it these days.

No I didn’t. We rearranged our gym and our Pilates Stability Chair can now be used for dips without moving it. Our FitTower is also readily accessible and our Pilates Cadillac works well for Pull-ups too. Additionally embarrassed to admit I have a ballet barre at the ready. I just couldn’t...

I never had those but yesterday when I did Lite Body Weight and Bands I wondered if they were using the loops you guys have previously mentioned. One thing I noticed was that they looked longer in diameter and the crew was ending up releasing the tension in between puddle and Fire steps. I...
