    Question about supersets vspyramid sets

    Explosive power Well, Mandy Lee, your question about supersets and pyramiding is beyond me. Although I could guess that they are just two different ways of stressing the muscle and forcing it to keep responding to the demands. Like Cathe keeps telling us: change, change, change. You know how...

    Important news about the Cathe Trip.

    Did you look in the Forum? Honeybunch, her post is in the General Discussion Forum. VF is a really busy forum, so you might have to keep hitting the button for next page, but you should be able to find it. She posted it yesterday and the title is "Important News About the Cathe Trip." I hope...

    Need suggestions.

    Forgot to say In my experience, the first few months of having 2 kids so close together in age were kind of tough. But after that, it was EASIER to have two than it was to have one. Even though my 2nd born should have been a LOT more work because she was born with a birth defect that meant I...

    Need suggestions.

    Just always knew Well, Lisa, here's my story. I am not sure if it will be helpful to you or not ... I always wanted lots of kids. But I didn't get married until I was 32. And we weren't blessed with our first child until I was 35. After having Brad, I was so thankful. My heart spilled over...

    Pregnancy Videos

    Depends I am typically an advanced exerciser, so the commercially available fitness pregnancy tapes didn't do much for me. I did get a nice workout at a comfortable level by using some "intermediate" level tapes. My favorite was Kari Anderson's Fitness Formula. (I didn't know about Cathe...

    How do I stay motivated?

    Not Sheila either But I'd recommend listening to your body. Some pregnancies are tougher than others and some weeks are easier than others. At this point in your pregnancy, I bet you'd be amazed at what a workout you're getting just walking a little bit. Don't wear yourself out now -- the...

    my new favorite...Step Fit!

    Another Step Fit fan! Step Fit is one of my all-time favorite videos, Michele. I love all of Cathe's videos, but my favorites are the ones with more choreography in them, like Step Fit, Step Works and Power Max. (Can you guess what I'll be begging for from Cathe when she starts taking...

    Menopause and Fitness

    Thanks for the info, Julie At age 40, perimenopause is a bigger PIMR than those sit-and-stands in PS Strong Legs! (PIMR=Pain in my Rear) I am trying to educate myself as much as possible before my next doctor's visit. I really appreciate your information. I am scared of the onset of...

    YaHooo!!

    You did part of Power Max on 10"? You deserve a Yahoo and a Wahoo and a whole lot more, Debbie! Thanks for reminding me how much fun Power Max is. I haven't been doing much Cathe cardio lately and I'm feeling the need for some Cathe speed! Tomorrow is going to be a PMax party in my...

    YaHooo!!

    Seems to me ... That you've got plenty of energy of your own, Carol! But if you need a little more "boost" in your workout -- just imagine that your Chuck Norris is Drop Squatting right next to you. Daphne

    New complete upper body tape from the new 6 series?

    Miss Lou Lou's Tapping Starlettes! Oh Penny, that sounds like so much fun! I hope all goes well with the annual extravaganza. My mom used to do some tap dancing and my grandmother was a professional tap dancer, whose greatest claim to tap fame was that she used to do shows with Buddy Ebsen...

    Running..

    Hi Debra I don't use a HRM. Heck, I hate accessories so much that I don't even use an umbrella! But I think the principals of a hard day, an easy day, a recovery day, an interval day, a tempo day, etc. can all be used to apply to your workouts. I like to follow the training guidelines for...

    Running..

    Hi Cara! I can't offer any advice on the Hydroxycut, but I can give you a little advice on the running. Don't worry about the breathing patterns! Just breath naturally. For long time runners who are trying to break through speed barriers, there are breathing patterns that may be of some help...

    questions about Christi T?

    Hey, Lisa! I love Christi and Cathe -- they are my two favorite instructors. They are different in style, that's for sure. I find that Cathe pushes me intensity-wise like no other instructor. And that's why I don't get tired of her workouts -- I'm always learning new things about my own...

    10"-17"stool

    Rubbermaid Tool Box & Step Stool You can find them at Target and probably K-Mart and Wal-Mart as well. It's a tool box and a step stool combined. It stands about 13-14 inches tall, you can store things inside it and it has a carrying handle. I like it because it is quite sturdy, especially...

    Oh My!!

    Plyo and Airborne Jack Interval!!! I'm doing one right now! I can't wait. I haven't watched any of Cathe TV. I can't watch it until the 9 p.m. showing and by then, my husband usually wants me to keep him company. I work full time outside the home and we barely even have time to say "hi" to...
