You are all awesome. I can't believe how helpful so many of you are. My brother in law is a exercise physiologist and worked for Fitcorp and Crunch but he is totally all gym. I have a full time job and 2 kids so working out at home is a must. I also secretly want him to be amazed at what his...

Okay, I'm definately going to contest it. Great idea about the picture. The judge will be able to see just by looking at it that it easily could have happened. It just was a huge downer knowing that I'm a basically a good law abiding citizen and I drove around for 20 min. trying to find a...

I was in downtown Providence today for work and when I came out the meter maid placed a whopping $100 ticket on my window! I started to cry when she explained that my tire was resting on the curb. I have a Jeep Liberty and the curb was so sunk in..it wasn't any higher than the actual road. I...

Thanks guys...Cathe's concentration curls w/ the bonus hold is awesome and yes, I will have to remember how important working the tri's are to keep the balance. I guess there is a reason why Cathe has grouped her Gym Styles the way she has.

If I really want to increase my bicep muscle do I need to exercise them every other day? Currently I only get them in once a week. I rotate the Gym Styles. I do Bootcamp once a week, Core Max and run 3X's. I am seeing progress but would like faster results in that one area. I really don't...

I too was curious about this. I have been rotating the Gym Styles for the last month but was thinking maybe I want to do the GS bicep segment every other day to see real progress in that area. I think the advantage to the way I am currently training is that I am improving my strength and...

I like everything but those cork screws in the first segment...can't do it so I just sub w/ regular crunches and the lever move in the second segment where you exchange the swiss ball from legs to hands that makes my hip bone click so I have to sub that one too but everything else is awesome! I...

I appreciate the feedback. I love this forum...it helps so much. I am realizing there are so many components to being fit. I don't have a step background but want something that challenges me. I love Bootcamp. Maybe I will give a beginner step video a try. Thanks again for the help...

Dallas, How are you enjoying switching to Cathe over some of your running days? I run 3x's a week and rotate pyramids, gym styles and boot camp for strength. I live in New England and come Fall I won't run as much. Is Imax 2 the best cardio tape for me to start out with? I wear Adidas for...

Hi Debbie, No she never said anything about drinking lots of water. I did take Aleve and I am feeling much better. Yes, it felt great while she was doing the massage. Someone once told me that they are basically squeezing out all the lactic build up. I will have to remember that about...

Yesterday I went for a massage (mom's day gift from hubby & kids) and today I feel lousy. I ache all over. It may be a combo of it being that time of the month and for 3 weeks everyday I have been exercising. I can't help it. I think I'm becoming a Catheholic or something. I have the...

Someone I work with swear by the Fructis...I must try it. I also may pick up Samples sizes of the Bumble and Bumble. That is a bit pricey but may be worth it. I ready somewhere that they make a powder or something so that your hair looks fresh after you work out. It absorbs some of the oil...

Recently picked up a few mags and saw many advertisements for new shampoos. I would like to try something new. Anyone loving their shampoo? I'm starting to think they are all the same. I want softness and body. ~Chrissy~

Hi Everyone, Upon reading so many of you raving about Phil Campbells, Ready,Set, Go book I purchased and read it. As the author receommends,I picked up a bottle of 1000mg tabs of LGlutamine. I noticed on the directions that it specifies to take on a empty stomach. My problem is that I...

Clare, I can see your point. Running is harder for me to get in with work and two boys but that would give my muscles the rest they need. I took the winter off from running and just started doing 4.5 mile runs two weeks ago. I am already seeing a difference in muscle def. The combo of...

Clare I am new to the Gym Styles so I hope you are right. I will take your advice and maybe do Boot Camp or go running the day before. I just started the GS's, tougher than the pyramids but I will keep trying. Chrissy

Hi Everyone, This morning as I was doing my Pyramid Leg workout I couldn't help but think that I was short changing my upper body a day of rest. The day before I did Gym Style Chest. So technically upper one day, lower the next but their is definately a overlap. On the heaviest set in the...

I did PU last night and am proud that I am up to the weights Cathe uses except for the final bicep set. I do 8,10 & 12's. I just ordered 2 gym styles last night. I was tempted to order the slow & heavy set but decided on GS because it's more recent. What's the main difference? ~Chrissy~

JUJYFRUITs are in a big yellow box, usually next to the Mike & Ike's.:P

Easy, for me it's JUJY candies, hence my sign name Jujygrl. I have to have them every Friday night. My hubby gets home, we go out to dinner w/ the kids then come home to watch a video and have them. It's a sin..they are so bad for your teeth and a definate no no to my diet but I do a Cathe...
