    treadmills?

    Lizzy -- If you go to treadmilldoctor.com or put in the address bar either "treadmill reviews" or "treadmill ratings", you'll get a ton of advice and reviews and prices of different machines. For the past five years I have been doing almost daily incline and speed intervals on my treadmill...

    Walkman Belt Carrier

    Hi, Ducky -- Never can be more info than I asked for! The more the better. Strange, but I can't even find fanny packs around any more. Also, I am coompletely ignorant about MP3. I have a lot of cassettes and just started collecting cd's -- but can cd's be used in MP3's or do you have to...

    Lower Body Exercises Using Ankle Weights

    Thought I'd make your day -- I just ordered S&H. Happy now that you got me to spend more money? As far as legs & glutes, can't get myself to spend that much when I know I'll never do Kick,punch, etc., and there seems to be a lot on legs & glutes I won't be able to do, either. Anyhow...

    CATHE - Are dumbbells instead of barbell OK?

    Appreciatethe detailed info. I do strenuous incline and/or speed intervals on my treadmill most every morning for 20 to 50 minutes, so what I want from Cathe are just gym stle weight workouts, no cardio. I use 3 lbs only for shoulders, 8 lbs for the rest of upper body, and just started with...

    Lower Body Exercises Using Ankle Weights

    Ripe old age of 52??? I haven't been there for many, many years! No, I didn't preorder hardcore because I am really disapointed that the gym-style workout is going to be on 3 separate dvd's. If I am so enamored of PUB, do you think S&H would be a good addiiton? Whenever I start to do...

    Lower Body Exercises Using Ankle Weights

    YOU PEOPLE ARE REALLY A VERY, VERY BAD INFLUENCE! Of course,now I am going to order the DVD of glutes even tho I doubt I will grow into KP&C -- not at my age!!!!! I do wish I had been organized enough to get several of these dvd's at once, and at least I would have saved on the shipping...

    Lower Body Exercises Using Ankle Weights

    Just checked out the legs/glutes dvd and unfortuntely, KPC is past my workout ability! So I might order vcr (which I hate reverting to) of legs & glutes, and am definitely going to get dvd of PS. Maybe I'll check EBay. And now-- using all my will power, I am going to log off -- I started to...

    Lower Body Exercises Using Ankle Weights

    Thanks, Debbie -- I sure can't complain about the speed of that answer! Going to look at legs & glutes to see if there is a dvd version. Also, I was definitely thinking of getting PS dvd -- have you done it? Is it toooooo slow? I am abolsutely hooked on PUB upper and find I do that almost...

    Lower Body Exercises Using Ankle Weights

    Do any of Cathe's weight tapes use ankle weights? I cannot do her lunges or dead man lifts, and am looking for gym-style weight tapes where ankle weights are used for quad lifts, side leg raises, stuff like that. I have her ME, PH/MIS, PUB, and while the upper body workout is great,the lower...

    CATHE - Are dumbbells instead of barbell OK?

    Am so glad to hear someone beside me is using weights that aren't 20 & 30 & 40 lbs, etc.! Must admit that for shoulders, tho, I still stick with 3 lb. weights. For about how long have you been using these weights, and has it made any difference as far as strength, endurance, body shape, and so...

    DVD Decision....Did I miss it?

    I have an inexpensive dvd/vcr commbo and never had any problem with a 1-2 second freeze, but even if I did, I would prefer it to the time it would take to go from one dvd to another. It seems we won't be getting any answer to these posts from Cathe about this. With so many people on this and...

    DVD Decision....Did I miss it?

    For me it's not only economically that this bothers me-- but having to put on three separate dvd's for one full-body workout is too time consuming and a nuisance for me and is the reason I never got PS or S&H when they were on 3 separate tapes. Pyramids on DVD has really spoiled me, and it's...

    Cathe-- Gym Style Training questions

    I ended up with a DVD-VCR combo, but when I was originally shoppping for a DVD recorder, I was told I could transfer my vcr tapes to dvd -- but of course you wouldn't get the wonderful chaptering in tapes like PUB, and the others. Even so, I would prefer that to 3 vcr's or 3 dvd's. As far as...

    Cathe-- Gym Style Training questions

    Hi, Cathe -- As your undoubtedly very oldest exerciser and devotee, I am limited at to what tapes I can do -- steps, high impact, lunges, are definitely out for me. However, in addition to my aerobic treadmill work, I love your weight workouts -- I have DVD's of PH/MIS and my all-time favorite...

    PS and S&H legs sections hurt my knees

    I'm sure not Cathe,and I'm sure no expert, but I had the same problem. My knees stopped hurting when I started doing quad lifts -- sitting on a chair, with weights on your ankles, lift each leg straight out, tensing the quads, and then down, doing 12 reps on each side, 2 sets. Also, standing...
