    How do you get started again?

    First of all--Congratulations on losing all that weight!! :7 It sounds like you still have some of that passion, or you wouldn't be posting this..Also, you probably need more sleep. If you have all of Cathe's DVD's, why don't you start a rotation? Like one of the new ones.....Total Overall Body...

    Slow and Heavy questions

    Hi Nancy I also do the S&H plies with the barbell. I wasn't getting much of a workout using the weights that I had either. I think I was bending forward too much while holding the weights. The barbell over the shoulder is more comfortable for me. Donna M

    I need some ideas for small meals

    I like mini whole wheat pitas with 2 TBSP of canned diced tomatoes and an oz. of Montery Jack shredded cheese baked in the toaster oven. Sometimes I put veggies on it and sometimes a couple of pieces of chopped pepperoni. Donna M

    Favourite body part since Cathe entered your world?

    I voted for triceps, because they are real easy to see when I straighten out my arm backwards.:-) Donna M

    Looks mean nothing

    Hi Nancy, I had the same problem until I started forcing myself to increase my weights. It's not easy to do it on endurance workouts like MIS and PH, but try it on the PS series. I also noticed strength gains when I did Slow and Heavy. Even if you can't do all sets with the heavier weight, try...

    Weight Watchers

    Hi Rhonda, I do WW and up until Christmas I was going to meetings at the AT WORK program (lunchtime) Going to the meetings and having to weigh-in does tend to keep you going. Since they aren't renewing because of lack of participation, a group of us workmates are going to try meeting in the...

    how many of you will use the Firm's step instead of the mini-step?

    I have 2 of the Firm's 14" steps and I will be using them also. I just need to put some rubber on the bottoms so they won't wobble around on my uneven wood floor. Donna M

    Holiday Haters Speak Out!

    Mogambo, you are right on! My dh and I are so tired of the Christmas hype and mall-ism. I live a half a mile from the mall and I can't even get home some times! The worse is the guilt about not giving enough. I just finished wrapping for the family and I found myself looking around for more...

    Took the Plunge

    Hi Nancy! You won't be sorry!!! I love doing step more than any other cardio. I ran for 10 years straight with DH and one day I just didn't feel like it anymore. Then I bought some Cathe step tapes (which DH never wanted to attempt) and I bought a step and I haven't stopped yet! Actually, my...

    Please give your vote......

    Hi Lori, I have to vote for WW because it's really the only thing that works for me. I'm on 23 points a day also, have been doing it for 9 weeks and lost 6 pounds (I don't have a lot to lose). I cheat on the weekends and still lost weight. WW allows you to incorporate all kinds of foods and...

    Is Leaner Legs Brutal?

    Leaner Legs is by far the hardest leg workout. The low-ends do the trick. But even though it is hard, working the opposing muscles really feels good and it goes by fast, well kind of. You DO feel really good about yourself after!! Donna M

    Can MIC ever REALLY be turned into a LO impact routine ?

    I did MIC last Monday when I was home from work sick.....and it was the first time I really had to modify it. I was ok until the middle of the step section, then I started backing away from the step and doing the moves on the floor. I just walked around my house for the cool down. MIC is not the...

    Which Medicine Ball???

    Hi, I haven't really tried any exercises with the medicine ball yet, but I did try holding it in my hand out to the side (which I saw demonstrated in a magazine) and it was quite heavy. I wouldn't go with the 9 or 10 pound ball yet, until we find out how Cathe is going to have us use them. But...
