Actually, that was Sinead O'Conner that remade HIS song. He wrote it, she recorded it. I am not sure if he recorded it after or before her; but he definately wrote it. I don't think he would remake anyone's songs...he is just too orignal. I also like the song "kiss". Hmm.got that on my...

I love, love, love Prince. He is a stellar musician and has really "cleaned" up his music in the last few years, now refusing to swear or talk dirty in his concerts and such. There are even songs he will not do anymore. He just rocks and what longevity. His favorite song of mine is...

I just have to chime in! I am a VP for a large bank and have a stressful job...as many of us do! I am also a wife of an on call police officer and a mother of a 13 and 5 year old boy. Needless to say, busy...like we all are. I do not and can not wake up early to work out. My body says 'no...

I am convinced! You are all great! And I am convinced that I don't need to kill myself. After my back mends (this time!) I wm going to do some intermediate stuff for awhile I think. You all actually have me looking forward to more reps and less time each workout. That actually sounds...

Again, thanks so much for all of your input...I will take more because I am motivated a bit... I do feel like my body has been put through the ringer lately. I am taking a few more days off before I jump back in. I was laughing at my Drs appts today. I have ear surgery on may 21 (I have...

Thanks for your input Wendy. That is funny that your therapist said heavy weights etc...mine has said better light and a lot than heavy and a little. One never knows do they? It is all connected and I too have the same posture issue, rounding at the computer. I am a bit busty (nothing...

Hi all. I am mostly a lurker on here; but a huge Cathe fan and serious about my fitness. I need help...advice...something! I have worked out with Cathe and in many other realms for over 20 years. Just the last 6 months or so, my body is not cooperating anymore. I have a bad rotator cuff...

I feel your pain about your middle! Oh I can see those muscles in my abs that I have been working out for 20 yrs. on under that little bit of fat still there! UGH! I am 42; it has been tough! But, when I really, really watch my diet, it gets a lot better. I just need to eat clean all...

Hi! I just read through that thread you were mentioning and posted my woes as the last post. Yes....I think you are on your way to an injury; or you have one. Probably not as bad as it could be and I am no dr. Just experience like crazy. BE CAREFUL! Take all of that advice in that...

RE: Strengthen shoulders without injuring the rotator c... Hi Jennifer and everyone. Boy...did I need this thread! I too, am a 20+ year exerciser; and now 42 yrs. old. My shoulders are officially shot. I have good form, tried ortho, pts, cortisone. Nothing helps and I won't have surgery...

Thank you so much...this is exactly what I was looking for. Wow... I am kind of excited to learn more and see what it might do for my body. I would like to be 'longer'; I am quite muscular and this may be just what I need. Thank you so very much...if anyone else wants to chime in, please...

Hi! I lurk here a lot and post very occasionally; but I really appreciate your insights and conversations. I have been working out with Cathe for well over 10 years and into fitness for 20. It is part of my life and I am committed to it...it makes my life so great. BUT; I have all of a...

I was just thinking about this very thing... I have had three weeks off from working out. I hurt my rotator cuff and felt I needed a break from working out. I have atrophied a bit and my arms look so much better then when I was working out! I too build upper body mass easily. I love...

That is funny...but too true! I was impervious to any injury until I hit 40. Now I am done for. Even Cathe hurt her knee so yes, we are all human. Never give up!

Oh one more thing. I think I hurt mine doing pikes on the ball! I love those and I did them a lot. I am a stickler for form; but I remember that my shoulder issues began as I increased that type of work and overall straight arm plank work. I love those exercises but I think I over did it.

I did Low Impact Circuit tonight with one arm! I was very careful and modified it when needed. However, I can tell that one has to be extremly careful...I don't think working one side of the upper body is a good idea. I can already feel the imbalance of my back etc. in doing that. So, I am...

Thank you for your insight eveyone. I did go to my PT today and I haven't really lost any strength or flexibility as of yet. But it is painful all day and really bad at night. She said that I can do whatever doesn't hurt it; but I do think, especially after JJ's post, that I will really...

Hi everyone. I am so bummed about my rotator cuff. I have had it strained several times; but years ago from playing volley ball when I was in college. It hasn't bothered me otherwise. Well, for the last 3 months it was nagging and now I can't hardly sleep wiht the pain. I am doctoring for...
