    KB Question--Where to after Lauren?

    KB workouts I just preordered Kettlebell Dynamics today (Amy Bento). I also have the Lauren Brooks. I am hoping that Amy Bento's will kick up the "fun factor" and music choice a bit.

    What size Kettlebells do you use?

    sizes I am trying to get an idea of what sizes to buy, too. I got a 10 and a 15 for Christmas and also bought a 20lb. I have yet to use the 10 so I might return it. My only workout so far is the Lauren Brooks one, which I am lukewarm about. In the upcoming Amy Bento workout she said...

    Other Bosu Workouts

    Someone was mentioning their desire for a good Bosu workout on the suggestions for new DVD's board, so I said I'd post the names of some available workouts by other instructors. CIA Double Cardio is a great bosu workout with Seasun Zeiger (along with a great step workout by Sharon Money...

    Bosu instead of step.

    SirenSongWoman, I have two good Bosu workouts by others (and there's a new one coming this fall), not sure if I should post them here so I'll post their names in the Open Discussion for you. I would LOVE to buy a Boso workout from Cathe, too, if she ever comes out with one! I have tried...

    Anyone else out there with braces on their teeth?

    I did Invisalign, and it went really well. No one ever even noticed unless I mentioned them and they look really close. I didn't really need or want braces as a teenager, but my teeth crowded a little as an adult and it bothered me. The Invisalign was perfect for me. The first three days of...

    Looking for hard but time-conscious cardio

    I was a little disappointed in the 4DS cardio. They are quite short, especially without the warmup, and not that intense. I think the Kickbox and Bootcamp portions are more challenging intensity-wise, but still short...I usually do them together or play the same one over again. LIS and HIS...

    Size 12/14 to size 0!

    I would agree...I focused more on cardio because you can't beat that for pure calorie burn. But I know that building and maintaining muscle is a 24 hour calorie burn, too, so I always incorporate weights every other day. I don't lift much, though, compared to others on this site. I do...

    Size 12/14 to size 0!

    Hi Leisha! Once I met my goal, I added back in calories to a maintainence level (about 1800-2000 for me). One of my earlier posts lists some websites with handy calorie calculators based on one's height/weight/activity level. My abs were wimpy after 5 pregnancies, too. I would do 50 reps...

    would love to see Imax 4 and Lowmax II

    An Imax 4 with a second cardio/weights workout along the lines of Imax 2/Cardio & Weights would be awesome! Pretty please, Cathe? :-)

    BOSU workout

    I always like to add my vote for a Cathe Bosu workout when anyone brings it up! There's a definite lack of (advanced) workouts specifically created for the Bosu. I'll be one of the first in line to buy when there's a new one! :-)

    HIIT workouts?

    Count me in, too! I love the IMaxes. I would also like intervals with weights in between, too.

    Size 12/14 to size 0!

    THANK YOU! You are all so sweet with your kind words. I know that my accomplishment pales in comparison with others, but it really did so much for me. Not just appearance-wise, but for my health and self-esteem, too. The boys enjoyed taking the picture! They were just incredulous that...

    Size 12/14 to size 0!

    Finally..I think I've figured out how to post this! Here I am, with my five boys and my Cathe DVD's, in my workout room just before doing Cathe's 4DS Bootcamp! http://inlinethumb19.webshots.com/36626/2066502450103169849S425x425Q85.jpg

    Hi Becca! Good to hear from you! I sent you an email...best wishes on your goal!

    Size 12/14 to size 0!

    And another thing, my results were NOT dramatic or untypical. If you bother to read my story, you will see that my goal was 1 1/2 to 2 pounds per week. That is what doctors recommend for healthy weight loss. It was a slow, steady weight loss over many months from counting my calories and...

    Size 12/14 to size 0!

    I never named the brand of the hypnosis CD's until later when someone asked!!! And I was sure to point out that you didn't really need the whole "package deal" because I really only listened to two of the CD's. And by the way, why would someone who was a fraud take the time to answer personal...

    Size 12/14 to size 0!

    Okay, after thinking about it some more I am a little crabby and want to prove this person wrong lest someone else think that my accomplishment isn't "real". I will take a headless photo WITH my DVD collection! LOL But how do I post?
