    strike zone or in the ring?

    I asked this same question a few weeks back, and ultimately bought both. I like both, but prefer Strike zone. It has more drills, less chorography. Amy's may be more intense, but I think if you really punch and kick hard so can Strike zone. I love Amy's workouts comparable to cathe's in...

    Leslie Sansone

    I have alot of her dvds. I would use them for add ons to get a walk in or when I was pregnant. I really like her advanced 5 mile walk the best, because each mile is different and you can walk from 3-5 miles. Her 3 mile weight loss walk and walk slim dvds are good too. She is chatty but it is...

    HEART RATE MONITOR NIGHTMARE!!!

    My heart rate flucuates alot depending on what I'm doing and thus the total calorie expenditures. When I do Cathe at home, I'm anywhere around 120-160HR. 160 if I'm doing her intervals in Imax or Bootcamp cardio. I find it very hard to get the heart rate up high doing steady state tapes...
