A friend of our was diagnosed with this last week. In addition to this he also had swelling around his heart. The doctors said it was related to tress and in his case he was told to lay off of all forms of vigerous exercise. He thought at one point he was having a heart attack. If this Doctor...

I had that when I broke my finger. I did a jumping jack of all things and jammed it on my shoe. I'm crazy-awesome like that. ;)

I'm a walker myself and it was the best choice I've made with my fitness... ever! I don't do hi-lo anymore and I'm not one for traditional aerobics either. Walking and walking dvds are my mainstay for aerobics. While I enjoyed Cathe's cardio, it was too much for me and my body. At one time I...

Obviously not Cathe but I would recommend a routine of both muscle-building workouts and cardio for maximum results. For every pound that you lose without proper strength training, 30% of the weight lost comes from Muscle. Not a good thing! This is why it's important to do both and not one or...

Sweet! Thanks, much for the response!!!

Out of all of Cathe's Upper Body workouts I have to say that I LOVE her UB Work in BM2 on the Ball. I am curious to know if there will be any total upper body work or total upper body premix that will clock in somewhere bwt 20-30 minutes like the BM2 workout did? I know she has other great...

I do this too. When you focus and you know what you want to do, 30 minutes of each is really all you need. Or better when you do circuits you combine the two. I like the 30-50 minute range for total workout time. Although 60 minutes is max when doing both cardio and strength at once. But oddly...

Nowadays I am Total Body person. I like to hit everything at once and I find with my schedule and needs, I can better fit in 2 TB workouts than trying for 3-5 days of splits. I have a body type that responds to all types of lifting. As long as I am pumping some iron, I get the results I want...

Having Exercise Anorexia and Bulimia myself (recovered, thankfully) I agree 200% with this post. rest is not an excuse. Childbirth is not an excuse. Living life is not an excuse. What my therapists taught me is that exercise is meant to enhance life, not be something we work life around...

Rest is a must! Not resting and being over worked presents other issues aside from joint damage: Increased cortisol levels, hormone fluctuations, anxiety issues and attacks, poor sleep, mood swings, food issues (both restrictive and binge eating- not to mention throwing moderation out the...

I think is a cutie! She says things on several workouts that make me smile or laugh. I only use her strength workouts and premixes these days, so I don't to hear some of these little comments as much as I used to. But it's cute never the less.

Some people over at VF (thankfully NOT a member) also like to bash on Cathe for a plethora of reasons, mostly invalid, I think just to find something to do with themselves. Long and the short, I wouldn't hold anything anyone says at VF about Cathe with but a tiny grain of salt. I've done some...

I ordered the 9 Disc Set!

I ordered last night without issues. No release date has been given (**snicker** that'll give people on "other" forums less to complain about!) but I am assuming it won't be for many months. This however is perfect for me as Baby Girl is due in a few months and I plan on using the strength...

I would like to know if at some point we can either pre-order or order after release individual DVDs? I am only interested in the strength workouts and would like to purchase those only if possible.

My problem was I bought it thinking I'd use it when I did STS. I used it for 3 weeks and it's now a yoga and pilates mat rack. If it's discontinued and someone really wants it let me know. I'd be willing to sell mine.

I would like more resistance workouts as well. At the very least, strength-only premixes.

I read the list of Cross Fire Premixes and was wondering if any of those were strength-weight-band only premixes?

I've had all sorts and it varied with my weight. I'd get the comments like "you think you're better than me" or the guilt trips from family and friends bc I can walk 3-4 miles without dying or because perhaps I didn't want seconds of a meal at a family dinner. I'd get the guilt most often then...

Did you check amazon.com? I bought mine there just after Thanksgiving for 1/3 of the original price. And yes, it was Cathe's Turbo Tower as I have seen some knock-off type models.
