I forgot about the GS workouts...you could use those in a mock P90X routine as well. You could probably use PUB as well, or even CTX upper body split (these may be more for an endurance type approach to the weight work...as opposed to lower rep strength/growth oriented workouts). Deni

I think it would be pretty easy to create a "P90X like" rotation with Cathe's stuff. I guess it could go something like this: Week 1-3 1- SH workout (upper body) in its entirity; Coremax 2- An Imax (or other cardio interval workout) 3- SH workout (upper body) in its entirity; Coremax 4-...

Anne, If you are only making it through the first 30 minutes of Yoga...you've pretty much made it through all of the hard stuff. The "hard" stuff is like the first 45 minutes, and then it gets much easier and a little more relaxing. The last part is pretty much stretching, except for a...

Running is really hard when you are first starting out. I had quite an adjustment phase once I decided to give it a try. When I started I would feel like I was in a full out run on 4 mph!! And I could only run in spurts...run for a couple minutes, then walk for a couple minutes. I can...

First and foremost you need a rest day!! That's a must :D . You're body does just as much work while recovering as it does while it's working. You may be in a scenario wherein your body's scared to let go of that last 5 lbs for fear that it won't have anything to live off of due to all of the...

Hey no problem:D !! I had great results for being an ecto body type...and I must first say that it's really hard for me to gain in my upper body. Having said that I think I did some things while doing that program which may have sabotaged my results. First, I fell into the doubles trap...

I agree that they have become quite the fad. I only incorporate them in as add ons, never to act as a stand alone...unless of course it's a nice yoga stretch on my day off. I've never bought into the fat loss benefits of pilates. I strictly use it as core work not as cardiovascular work, as...

As far as the nutrition plan...it all depends on where you are currently, what your goals are, and how specific you want to be. If you don't have weight to lose, and you are doing it more for the muscular/fitness benefit than I would say no don't worry too much about the first phase definately...

Too funny:7 :7 :7 ...Queen a musical genre...heehee!! I honestly have no clue why they chose Queen...it's like they are setting these guys up for failure or something. Like, why did they have country when there's a seperate show just for a "country idol"...not sure what the name of the show...

I don't mind that Chris has a style that he sticks with...that's kind of the point isn't it?? Whenever you go out and buy someone's album it's usually from a certain genre...I mean Kenny Chesney doesn't make a country album one day and then make a rock album the next. Most recording artists...

I had to go lower on the weights. The Gym Styles were my introduction to Cathe...and let me tell ya what an introduction!!!! But if you're used to the fast paced nature of her weighted routines (which I wasn't...I was used to more recovery periods between sets) you probably won't have as...

That's right it was Scott last year who was kept alive by "Vote for the Worst Idol", it was the red head the year before. I could have sworn it was Bucky they were after this year...I'm kind of shocked they'd pick Kelly. I can't stand her either...her, Paris, and Bucky need to be the next ones...

Have you guys heard about the "vote for the worst idol" website??? This is why Bucky is still around. He's getting the "let's try and screw the competition vote" from this group of people. And it's probably what led to Mandisa being voted off. I'm not kidding this group really exists, and...

You're diet should be fine, if anything you may find you want to up your carbs as you get more and more into the program for the added fuel. But if you're used to being active and maintaining a healthy diet you will be able to "feel" if you need to tweek your diet or not. I wouldn't advise...

My advice is to just do it as is...especially in the beginning. The X is very tough and you need to acclimate to it without having other stuff that might be tiring you out. The one suggestion I could offer is if you really wanted to, you could sub out Kenpo X for a Cathe workout, as Kenpo is...

I get them infrequently and I usually just use Ibuprofen. However, when I was pregnant I got them all of the time. The only thing that helped me was Acupuncture...believe it or not. It's actually one of the best known treatments for migraines. But I'm not sure how that would work for a 5...

I swear that was the funniest thing I've ever read!!!!! I just sent it to pretty much everyone I know and printed it out for my husband to read as he will thoroughly enjoy it!!! I haven't laughed like that in a VERY long time...thanks!!!! Deni

Are you doing doubles(I'm not sure if it's a part of the lean rotation as I never did that one)?? If it has come up on your rotation because you're doing doubles than yes it's a less intense cardio workout for a reason. Doing an Imax a couple of times a week plus the entire X rotation could...

We are also a part of the "useless cat" group. We have a cat, and a mouse problem. We know when we have a mouse in the house because our cat tracks it and sits for hours "waiting for it" but he has never caught anything. We've had to rely on the standard traps and then this thing that our...

I was just reviewing the Pure Strength series as I'm getting ready to use that one for the first time and she does the close grip press with dumbbells in the tricep workout. Not sure if you have this series or not, but I just thought I'd let you know :-) . Deni
