Hi Kerrie, While I admit getting the whole P90X box with all the stuff in it can be intimidating, once you dive in that will pass. I'm finishing up the first phase of the Classic rotation. I'm continuing on with my regular way of eating (it most closely resembles the Zone program of a...

Hi Katie, How about interlocking puzzle mats? These are rubber squares that interlock much like puzzle pieces do. You can quickly set them up over your carpet prior to working out, and when you're done, they're easy to break apart, stack, and store. Maybe some others will post on where...

I had been intrigued by P90X for a while. I had the opportunity to purchase 6 of the DVD's (all the strength ones, which all include Ab Ripper X at the end so it's like I got 7 of the workouts) from a swap site. I'm in the first week of the Classic rotation. Here are my thoughts to some of...

From what you've described I think it's time that you get yourself to a doctor to have your knee looked at. Since I'm not a doctor, only a fellow knee problem sufferer, I don't want to speculate about a diagnosis. I do know that you a) should not be in that much pain, and b) when you start...

RE: Hi there, Even though I don't know you, I just wanted to offer you a BIG MENTAL HUG!!!!! I find your actions of giving him 'space' so very generous and courageous! One can only speculate about why he seems reluctant to take the next step in what is being described as a wonderful...

Add me to the list of people who would love to see a HSC like workout done low impact!

RE: I haven't used HYDRODERN so I can't answer your question. I have read some interesting articles abut the other two lines you mentioned and about topical creams that claim to have botox like effects in general. The bottom line is that they don't work. If they did work like botox...

Hi Joanna, You don't need to do an interval type workout if you don't have one. You can just substitute with whatever cardio you have. To make it kind of like an interval workout, alternate 5 minutes of doing the workout at your regular pace with 2 minutes of really going for it (add small...

Hi there, First, congratulations on your weight loss! What an accomplishment! Without knowing some basic things (how often do you workout/would you be willing to workout, how does your body respond to weight training, etc.) I'll throw out a suggestion. First, I would up the cardio to a...

www.videofitness.com has a trade/swap only forum on their site. You can trade equipment too. The Firm Yaya's has a swap/sell forum. You post your list with selling prices and, if you're willing to trade, your wish list. Look at a couple of postings to see how to do it. You need to...

RE: Hi there, I was the person who did the original Cathe rankings that are listed in the 'Results are in' post. I've been thinking about updating the list by asking for rankings for just the new Hardcore DVD's and simply inserting them in the current list under the appropriate...

It's the pink (easiest resistance) 6 foot long dyna band. It's available for $3.20 at www.fwonline.com. See if there's something else light weight that you would like as shipping starts at $4.95. Or order two! HTH!

This is just my opinion since I did something similiar about a year ago. For the first 3 1/2 months I would mix it up between heavy lifting and endurance workouts. Also, do whatever upper body workout would be fun as working the upper body that intensely for 4 months may lead to burn out if...

Hi there, Welcome to the wonderful world of Cathe. I'm sure that you'll come to love her workouts as much as the rest of us. As for where to start, I've copied a link to the 'Ultimate Cathe Guide' below. This ranks all of her current, in print, workouts minus the Hardcores which were...

Hi Cathy, Someone was very kind to lend me her gliding discs and DVD's so I could try them out before committing to a purchase. From my experience, and her's, here's what I've gathered regarding your questions. Qu.1 Can you use those gliding discs on carpet? Yes, the gliding discs are...

A circuit workout is where you alternate cycles of cardio (either step, hi/lo, or kickboxing) with cycles of weights. Interval workouts are where you do some moderate aerobic moves, push to get close to your anaerbic threshold, then recover a bit before starting the pattern again. HTH!

I'm having mixed feelings about the band. I liked it and thought that it was very effective for the shoulder work in Muscle Max. I also liked using it for the step ups. However, later in the same workout when it was used for tricep kickbacks, it was very uncomfortable for my wrist and hands...

I absolutely agree. Low Max is a great workout. I hope this is the start of a series of workouts with the same flavor!

Hi Lori, I have both High Step Circuit and High Step Training. Here are my thoughts about your question. First, I have to say that I love both of these workouts. If you do High Step Circuit as is, it's a great intermediate level workout. The cardio combos are easy on the joints and the...
