I've noticed that the new workouts have raised my fitness at least a couple of notches! I used to dread MIC, but last weekend I did it after doing Slow & Heavy Chest & Back. I surprised myself with that combo! And I wasn't even extremely tired afterward! In the past, I'd need a nap after MIC...

Sorry to ask such a lame question, but I've been wondering....Since I've been working out more intensely, I've noticed that my once almost invisible veins are now much more prominent. What causes this? Is it lower body fat or more blood circulation? Or what? I actually REALLY like my "new" look...

I love the idea of new videos!!!! Yea!!!! I love Imax & Imax 2 - so I'd love to see another interval workout! I love the idea of an hour long step tape - maybe you could introduce new moves in the warm up, so that the actual workout wouldn't have to teach the moves - just all out intensity...

I have the same problem - I think that most women do. I use a barbell that has a rubbery coating on it - this really helps my back & shoulders. Buy a barbell pad (they sell them at Walmart) if you don't already have one. Also, try pre-exhausting your legs - rewind the tape and do more leg work...

Jaime!!! You are too funny! Art Carey would HAVE to approve of an outdoor video!

I LOVE the Imax workouts! How about an IMax3?!? Also, I'd love a step tape that didn't build on itself so much - just an all out high intensity step tape! Kind of like the Imaxes without the intervals. Re: strength tapes: Remember in S & H, you talked about maybe doing a negatives weight...

IMax Imax 2 Cardio & Weights

Hey Courtney :7 I bought my husband's from Walmart's website too. I think it was a good deal! There's a fitness store near my office that is selling them for $100. (The Walmart where I live doesn't carry the step - I guess it's too big and takes up too much floor space.) BTW, I got my...

Thanks for the speedy answer, Cathe! I'll start my new rotation on Saturday!!! YES! I'm psyched! Thank you for being here for us! You're the BEST!!!

RE: Mine too! Cathe & only Cathe! Yes, Debbie H, my husband only likes Cathe too! Just for variety I gave him a Firm tape to try, but no!!!! He said that he didn't like the woman's voice! LOL! Unfortunately, he keeps doing the same three tapes over and over. He said (get this for male logic!)...

Hi Cathe: I am focusing on increasing the size of my muscles. Which series will give me more muscle, Slow & Heavy or the Pyramids? Thanks for your help!

What a great article!!!! How could he not fall in love with her?

Hi Cathe!!! I've been working on my rotation and am trying to figure out where to place Bootcamp. Is it more of a strength tape or a cardio. I'm more inclined to see it as strength, but I thought I'd ask the creator! There are several of us who await your answer with bated breath! LOL...

Deedee: That is an awesome story. As I was reading it, I kept saying to myself, "Deedee should be the trainer!" LOL! Now you are!!! I have to give the manager a little bit of credit though, for hiring you! You can certainly teach them a thing or two! Congratulations! And I hope that if I...

I just bought a box of Universal Nutrition Doctor's Carbrite bars. I can't say that they are the best tasting, but I find them palatable and they're the only ones I could find that don't have hydrogenated oils or trans fats. They have 21 grams of protein and 190 calories. I am so careful...

Hi Beth! I don't have the April issue yet....but I do take 2 T of ground flaxseeds every day. Most people may not agree with me but I just add it to my diet - I don't count it as anything. I pretend that it doesn't have any calories at all! LOL! Taking this amount has not slowed down my...

Happy birthday to you, Nancy! What a great gift that you gave yourself! I can't tell you how much better I feel since I have been eating a healthier diet. I generally eat as clean as I can without being obsessed. Fresh fruits & vegetables and lean meats have made all the difference! Good...

Well after reading this, I'm off to buy a 15 lb medicine ball. LOL! I just bought the 10 pound one at Walmart, what a great piece of equipment it is! My husband and I are both fighting over it. I recently bought two new barbells, assorted plates & dumbbells (so hubby & I don't have to...

LOL! Honeybunch! Yes, Leaner Legs is in my opinion the most intense work out I own! I also agree that this one isn't likely to bulk you up. Definitely do it the first time without weights. It's funny that we're discussing this tape today because I did it last night. What a super workout...

Hi Cathe and thanks for asking our opinions! I'm sure that I'll like anything you sell. I really like all of the clothes in your last two series. I love the shorts with the V in the front, they're very flattering as is a slight roll-down waistband. I'm a petite so petite pants sizes would be...
