    Yoga Max

    I would love to see a Yoga video/series with Pilates in it. Or if it is not feasable to dedicate an entire tape to Yoga, possibly after an intense cardio have a 20-30 minutes yoga/strech.

    Increasing Caloric Intake

    Thanks for the suggestions. I'm not sure I understand the eat 1 gram per pound of body fat. I'm 5'6" at 130 lbs. ... that would mean 130 grams of fat per day? I must be misunderstanding. I didn't think I was overworking the weightlifting. My normal routine is 1 CTX cardio and one PS or SH...

    Increasing Caloric Intake

    Cathe and educated crowd, I am really working on my eating habits. I have completely cut out alcohol which is new for me and I'm trying to eat healthy. I can't seem to get the correct percentages. I thought the correct ration was about 30% protein, 55% carbs and 15% percent fats. I'm...

    journaling website

    Someone posted a website some time ago and I can't find that post. I would like to return to the cite, but I can't find it. It was a website where you could input what you ate for the day and your fitness goals and it would tell you if your intake would work for your goals. If anyone...

    Even muscle tone in Abs

    Cathe, My abs appear to be developming more right under my rib cage than in the mid or lower sections. I'm going for the flat six pack ab look that you all have in the videos, and its getting there, it just appears that the upper abs are round and bulging rather than becoming flat and tight...

    Alcohol

    You are right. My original post was not intended to condone excessive drinking. What I was saying is that it is a particular problem for me -- obviously, or I just wouldn't do it if it bothered me. I thought I might get some replies on the negative impacts of alcohol and that I could use...

    Alcohol

    RE: Thank You. Wow. I'm really shocked at these responses. Thank you for responding...I don't feel as guilty. I was expecting to hear that a couple of drinks equals 5 Big Macs or something like that to scare me and to hear how stupid I am for negating my workouts. I think I need to be...

    Alcohol

    Cathe, I have started using your videos about 6 months ago and am AMAZED at the results. I feel so motivated after a workout and I am so proud of myself for sticking with it. My problem/question is that my self-control with alcohol is really hindering my cardio/strength training. My...

    Chest Press (or bench press?)

    In PS CST Cathe does chest presses with a barbell and then later uses dumbells for what appears to be the same movement. I have yet to get a barbell and am using dumbells for everything and was wondering if the barbell works the muscle differently.

    Muscle Soreness

    If your muscles are still pretty sore, even after a couple of days, should you wait before working them again, or is that a good thing?

    Cardio Interval Max in Rotation

    I've been reading alot of posts to try and figure out a rotation schedule for myself. I'm new at this and am learning from your posts. I'm trying to lose approximately 15 pounds (or at least reduce body fat percentage) and plan to do a cardio work out at least 5 times per week. Along with...
