^^^Kathryn, that is a great point. Everyone has individual tastes when it comes to music. However, I would say that there seems to be a general consensus on exercise videos that have 'great' music. For eg. Kick, Punch and Crunch -- one could argue that more people than not find this workout...

Insanity all day!!! It rocks. I will be trying Turbo Fire too when that comes out.

Yes, yes and yes!!!! I feel like screaming when an instructor (hated Billy Blanks for this) does 20 reps on one side, then I have to go pause the tape and do 20 reps on the other side because he forgot to do it. What I hate even more is that he KNOWS he didn't do all the necessary reps, but...

A.haaaaaaaahahaaa....yep, Insanity is the sh*t! I miss it hugely (just over 3 months preggo). Nothing really compares to it. I don't even really miss jammin' music with this series because I'm working too hard to really care! Funny enough, I got pregnant, literally, the last week of the series...

LOL! 'Sloshy feeling!' That is a great description of that feeling in your stomach when you try to jump around after eating. I sometimes find that I also have too much of a 'sugar surge' and feel light headed if I eat the wrong thing before I workout.

OMG...I just heard about Turbo Fire and I'm totally going to get it! I am fairly new to Chalene and Turbo Jam, but already have two cardio parties and the Kick, Punch Jam --- they are all great fun and a pretty darn good workout. If Chalene can combine that great music with challenging...

I have lurked so long on this forum and want to say hello and thanks to all the wonderful and interesting ladies/men on this site! Anyway, I hope this is not a repeated thread, but has anyone seen this new story/study? http://abclocal.go.com/wls/story?section=news/health&id=7477473...

YEP! I have to say, I am so bad with replacing aerobic shoes! I still have a pair from three years ago that I just can't throw away. They feel like air every time I put them on.

I have to say that I agree with both sides. Variety is the spice of life, but Jari is not that spicy!!! LOL. This reminds me of a part on her video, Ripped to the Core (title?) in the cool down section where she does a neck stretch. As she's stretching, she tells us to 'think of wonderful...

OMG, I came in here thinking you wanted to discuss doing Insanity WHILE pregnant! LOL! I have been tempted to put in one of his workouts and see if I can do it (I'm about three months now), but I have a feeling it's not a good idea! haha. It's exciting to think about getting back to the...

I just wanted to let you know I am thinking of you. I have had one miscarriage, so I can only imagine what three or more feels like. I won't pretend that I have any worthwhile advice to give you. You deserve to be happy; do what it takes you get you there.

Butt kicks kick my butt! When I first tried butt kicks, I didn't think I would be able to do more than two or three either! The trick is to start slow and controlled and don't try to keep up with Cathe. Feel yourself spring up for the bent knee position and control the impact on the way down...

Yeah, it's hard... I know exactly where you're coming from in terms of wanting to reduce the size of the hips, thighs and buttocks. Beth gave you some good options there. i love Butts & Guts! Also, I noticed a huge difference in my body when I started alternating challenging cardio with...

Music makes a huge difference for me I want to be honest: the reason I did not buy the whole STS Strength series (only have series #3 for the legs) is because of the music. I like to be motivated by music. I knew I would not want to continue through a whole series that does not have great...

Insanity is fire; STS is hot I hope it's OK to add to this discussion here. I'm a long-time lurker on Cathe forums. I have been doing her tapes/videos for at least 7 years now. I am currently 3 months pregnant, so I have been cutting back on her more intense workouts. Let me say this about...

Yay for you! Congratulations! You must be so happy. I recently went to the doc's and she found my tummy to be larger than normal at my stage (about 10 weeks). She hinted as a possibility of twins. Did anyone else have this as a first symptom/sign of having twins? Enlarged uterus? I feel...

Love this board! I have found this to be true even in non-pregnancy. Many mothers would tell me I would never be able to keep exercising as often as I do (6 days a week) once I have a child. Of course, they did not do any form of exercise at all and wanted to lose weight! I am now 10 or...

Just starting!! Hey, I'm sorry, I probably shouldn't be responding, but I just finished my first WEEK of Insanity and I'm in love with Shaun T! You guys are right; this workout is strangely addicting. I have to say I love the shorter length. I sweat buckets and have so much time to do other...

Hugs to you all Sweetpea1, bmmccartney, susank41 and melanalyus: hugs and thanks right back to you! Thanks for responding to my post and welcoming me with open arms. Means a lot. I do plan to check in with you gals, but may not post a lot. I want you to know that I am doing well emotionally...

Thankful to all of you ladies Hello, I have posted here very seldom, but I have lurked for about 5 years now! LOL. I had a miscarriage on Friday, Jan.16th. -- a week ago now. Looks like everything 'passed' over a three hour period with a lot of bleeding and some cramping. I don't want...
