Running is hard on my lower body as well. I don't like stepping. I've picked up kickboxing and jumping rope as my primary cardio exercises. They seem to be less stressful on my body than stepping and running.

LAST EDITED ON Dec-12-02 AT 01:45PM (Est)[p]I think you could easily use either tape as a split routine. If you purchase the DVD that has MIS, PH, and Body Max on it, the chaptering makes a split routine very doable. All of Cathe's strength routines include stretching during and after the...
MIS is an endurance workout. You can build strength and get definition with an endurance workout. If a total body workout seems like too much, you could do a upper/lower body split routine using MIS or Power Hour.

LAST EDITED ON Dec-11-02 AT 05:45PM (Est)[p]My vote would be for Maximum Intensity Strength. Cathe's form pointers are excellent in this video. I recently read an article in Muscle Fitness Hers where they recommended full body splits two to three days per week. According to the article, if...
Is there a formula one can use which gives maximum daily values of protein, fat, and carbs an active person (who wants to lose weight) should follow?
Thanks

I'd like to thank everyone for their comments. I think I'll try using the S&H series for this. It seems to provide a good length of time per muscle group. With the exception of legs, the other tapes only seem to work individual muscles around 10 minutes. That doesn't seem to be adequate for...

I started the beginning of the year wearing a size 10. Changing my diet and incorporating aerobic and strength training has me down to a size 4. It didn't happen overnight. It took at least 4 months before...
I'd like to increase my cardio without giving up strength training. I would like to move towards doing cardio six days a week and work on a muscle group per day. I know Cathe has the CTX series. However, I don't want to purchase that because it contains mostly step workouts. I much prefer to...
I'm curious to know the weight training/cardio regime for those focusing on reducing the size of your legs (e.g., thighs). That's a problem area for me. For the last month, I've been following a generic lower body...
I own the following Cathe tapes.
Cardio Kicks
CTX Kickbox
Pure Strength Series
S&H Series
Leaner Legs
Maximum Intensity Strength
CTX Upper Body

LAST EDITED ON Nov-21-02 AT 11:53AM (Est)[p]My biggest obstacle to losing weight is my desire for sweets. I just love baked goods, candy, etc. Are there any good books, articles, etc. on overcoming sugar addiction?
Thanks

Does anyone know what the price was for the Intensity Series Volume 3 DVD during Phase 1? I know it's $39.99. I'm just curious to know the price difference.
Thanks
