Cathe, May I suggest that when youo do a High Energy High Impact cardio that you include a low impact modification? As you always have "the girls" working out with you it could be very useful for us with back problems to have a low impact version. Sometimes I can think of something but other...

Hi Laura, I just want to share my experience also not using the step. I live in Luxembourg (so a little closer to you than the US) and travel a lot within Europe or with my husband. We both share a passion for regular exercise so I had to find a way to keep exercising even if there's no gym...

Barb, I travel a ton and like you I am addicted to Cathe. I have been taking Low Max on the road with me as cardio. I don't use a step but do everything BIG, use lot's of space and trust me it still gives you a good workout. Save travels. ;-)

Ladies, I was just curious of what you do when you have to miss a day in a rotation. Do you keep on going with the next day as planned or do you do the missing day changing then the day pattern and eventually taking longer to complete the rotation. Am I making sense? Exmaple: Monday: BM2...

Jen, We just lost our dear golden retreiver 2 weeks ago to cancer. Last October we moved to Luxembourg, EU so we had to give him away to our neighboors. We could have taken him as there are no restrictions here but our lifestyle (lot's of travelling) would not have been fair to him. He was 10...

Susandean, WOW, that is great! It shows that with proper attitude you can do whatever you want at any age. I can do push-up from my toes thanks to Cathe. It depends on days, anywhere from 10-30 and how my shoulders feel. Still looking at doing the 72 from Gym Style... in my dreams! As for the...

TraciX, Thanks for the encouragement. I'm a little "scared" but I am definitely looking forward to it. I'll make sure to join the forum to share my experience. I hope there are some "over 50" within the group... But if you put your mind to something great things can happen. So you'll hear from...

Well you've convinced me. I just ordered the P90X system. I'll be traveling to the US next week and it should be there for me. I will finish my present rotation, I ma doing FitnessFreak's lean rotation and will start P90X in September. It should give me time to study the program and get...

Ladies, Thank you so much for sharing all that information with us. I read most of the thread on the P90X system and I am "almost" convinced to give it a try. What attracts me to it is the lean rotation that I could do first. However I have one question. Can you substitute another cardio for...

Ladies, I am contemplating to start an inspired P90X rotation with Cathe's workouts. My question is this. I still would like to loose about 10lbs. My body structure is a V shape, with wide shoulders and back and small hips and buttock. There is not much cardio in this rotation and I was...

Hi ladies, It seems I opened a can of worms with the speed driving. What I really mean is this; when I lived (or go back) to the US, there are plenty of people that drive in the left (passing) lane and DO NOT MOVE FROM THERE if their live depended on it. You see them enter the highway, move to...

I have 2 pet peeves; one is when driving in the speed lane on a highway and people going slower do not move from the lane. I am sorry but the left lane is a passing lane, not a "I move there lane and too bad if you want to pass...". My other pet peeve is when people do not return their grocery...

RE: Leg cramping- Cathe or any Teals and all others, Thank you so much for the information. I also heard from one of my trainer (specialized in Pilates and other therapeutic exercises) that certaian mineral fortified water could be beneficial. I will call my dictor to get my potassium and...

Cathe, First let me thank you for the wonderful work you are doing and for the inspiration you are to thousands of devotees. Since I have started with your workouts about a year ago (coming from a different system)I have seen strenght gains and overall better fitness. I was also suffering from...

Ladies, I have put together a fat loss rotation and I would welcome anyone to critique it. I am in the process of reading BFFM and based on the recommendations of 4-6 cardio/week for 30-60 minutes and 3-4 strenght workouts/week I have come up with this rotation. I have build the rotation based...

Ladies, After reading a lot of your posts regarding Cardio Coach I decided to give it a try and ordered one of his "sprecial pack" so I have 7 CD's that I downloaded on my I-Pod. I must admit that I've never used it so far. I hate any cardio machine,so I've been doing all Cathe's or sometime...

Deana, Have fun! I took TKD first when I was 37yrs old and loved it. We started as a family (DH and the 2 children). After moving a few times, all the family droped for various reasons and I finally got my black belt at the age of 45. I moved again after testing and never found a scholl I...

Heidi, If you have an I-pod and connected to the internet it should bring you to the I-tune site. There you can search for fitness music and you will be able to find music for training. Not all of them have a specific walk/run pace but some do. I have "old" real "old" tapes with paced music and...

Happy B-day (Bonne Fete!!!)Debbie and thank you for all you do and your commitment to this board. Have a great day!;)

Debbie, Thanks for your suggestions. I will order them. Can you tell me what order of rotations (your's as well as Cathe's) should I use to get to my goals? Meaning which one should I do first, then followed by... Thank you for your time.:+
