    Working a muscle to failure

    LAST EDITED ON Nov-11-02 AT 10:25AM (Est)[p]LAST EDITED ON Nov-11-02 AT 10:23 AM (Est) What is the latest scoop on working a muscle group to failure? Is this something to strive for, or something to avoid? I try to work with weights heavy enough to be about 2 reps shy of failure. Is this...

    Unilateral glute soreness after lunges

    I have the same problem! I am always more sore on the right side, or only sore on the right. I notice this mainly with my butt, no other body parts. I have used both barbell and dumbbells with no difference. What's the deal?

    rubber or leather medicine ball????

    I am also curious about this. I want one like Cathe has. I feel like a little kid saying that mine has to be just like hers! Some things you never outgrow!

    cathe shirts?

    What about the color? I'd love some jewel tone colors, or some bright and attractive ones. How about adding Cathe's expression about the educated crowd? That seems to be quoted pretty frequently!

    Suggestions? - Lower Bosy Split

    I'd love extra hamstring work. I feel like hams are neglected sometimes and they are so attractive when well shaped!

    Suggestions? - Boot Camp Circuit

    Sounds terrific as is! Please don't include too much kickboxing. I just don't like it and it gets boring. A little goes a loooooong way!

    Suggestions? - Upper Body Split

    I'd like a full 45 minutes for upper body, with abs tacked on at the end (not an overly long set for abs, just short - but tough!). I'd like the weight to pyramid up. I'm also interested in the Body for Life style, but either way, I will love it! Also, a bit slower tempo than PS so we can...

    CTX Upper Body Compilation?

    I've been doing these weight workouts together for my latest rotation and it's been great . . . except for all the rewinding and fast-forwarding! This will be a great addition to my Cathe collection and save me from the pain in the butt rewinding, etc.

    New step only video?

    Cathe - I also like the name Pure Step, and I LOVE the idea of a 15-15-15 tape! I'll buy whatever you make, but I like the idea of some quick-changing routines for boredom busters. Your CTX series is great for that and I'd love a second series!

    Help -- I feel chest presses in my shoulders!

    I have this same problem as well. Maybe it is true that my shoulders are weak and I am feeling it in themas a result. I had never thought of that! You aren't alone!

    T-Tapp

    LAST EDITED ON Jun-05-02 AT 06:12AM (Est)[p]Hi! I consider myself a pretty advanced exerciser and I do t-tapp once or twice a week. I find that it is very useful for cinching in the waist and hips. Alot of people are successful at losing inches fast. I started fairly close to my ideal body...

    Cathe The Countdown

    Group B strep Hi Cathe! I also tested positive for Group B Strep with all three of my kids. When I first asked my doctor to test me, he told me I didn't need the test. After reading up on it and reading about all of the babies that had died because of it, I couldn't understand why ALL...

    Triceps question

    Hi Cathe! I did Power Hour today and I noticed that when I do my triceps using a barbell, I seem to have less strength than using dumbbells. For example, I tried to use 15 pound barbell and REALLY struggled, but I substituted 2 8 pound dumbbells and was much more comfortable. Is it the angle...

    What new videos does Cathe have in mind?

    I hope that someday she will produce another CTX series similar to the first. That has got to the greatest set of tapes ever produced! They are so versatile and fun! I almost forget that I'm exercising. But - I'll take anything that Cathe makes!
