Ellen--yes I have my own treadmill. It is a Pacemaster, can't remember the model. It was a higher end one and it has been great and very durable. It is so nice having my own. I do like to run and walk outside but that is not always doable. I have gotten more than my money's worth the 3...

Good morning BBs, TGIF!! This morning I did a treadmill workout. I got it from a magazine a while back and it is 60 minutes long and entitled "The Ultimate Walking Workout" and it is tough! I zapped about 500 calories. Then I did an abs add-on. I am pooped! Glad it is Friday though...

Can anyone suggest a good vegetarian cookbook? Thanks! -Thea

Good morning BBs! Good job this am, Laurie! Glad you like LIS. It is pretty fun. I'm not crazy about the music but I can deal with it. I have done the sculpting section but find it a bit easy. I did the pre-mix that is 2 sets of each exercise and got a better work out. I also did the...

Good for you about the half maraton, Ellen! When is it? That is a future goal of mine as well. Good luck with the training! Sue, I need to do more yoga as well. I used to do it twice a week in college and it really made a difference in my flexibility and stress level. I think it's a good...

Does anyone do Meaner Legs with little or no weight? Not that I could probably do it with much weight anyway, but just curious if anyone was trying it this way and what the results were! TIA!

Good morning BBs, This morning was a 30 minute treadmill routine followed by LIS. Pretty good workout. My DVD player keeps freezing though, so I need to see about that, sure interrupts a workout! Man, oh, man am I NOT in the mood to work today. Think I woke up on the wrong side of the...

Wow, can you believe it's only Tuesday?! I had some trouble getting out of bed this morning but I did it. More tired this week for some reason, maybe PMS. Did an intense incline workout on the treadmill for 30 min this am, followed by PP. I may also take a walk after work if it's good...

Jedi, that's great, give me a call when you get time or I can try and call you again too. I love spinning too, that is definitely what I miss most about not having a gym membership! I've even thought of saving $$ to have a spin bike at home but they are quite pricey. I think the gym closest...

Good morning, Pedmom, so sorry to hear about your ankle! That is the same injury I have been battling but give it rest and patience and it will get better in no time! Sorry I haven't posted in a while, just been busy I guess. I have been slowly getting back into Cathe after my hiatus due...

Sarah, I will be turning 29 soon, so not quite to 30 yet:o , but I have had the same thoughts as you.....I want to go into my 30s in the best health and best shape of my life! I hear all these stories about how much harder it is to lose weight and keep it off once we get into our 30s and...

Thanks for the comments and encouragement everyone! Yes, I also have the Timesaver DVD so I could mix that in there as well. Injuries are so frustrating--that is part of my problem as far as getting out of shape. Excuses no more! I am grateful for all of your help. I think I will start the...

Hey everyone, Need some opinions please....would you consider the CTX series a good "intermediate to advanced" rotation/set for someone getting back into fitness? I have been using Cathe's LIS and BF/BS DVDs including the strength workouts for several weeks...thinking of trying CTX next to...

Margaret- So sorry to hear about your ankle. I also sprained my ankle badly in August. I stayed off of it for a few weeks and slowly got back into exercise. Be sure to keep a bandage on it if you are on your feet a lot. I am on my feet most of the day at work and the swelling just...

Thank you, all of you! I already own High Step Challenge, so I will give it a try and keep the moves low impact and see how it goes! Injuries sure suck! -Thea

Bump..

Thanks, Lori, that does help! -Thea

Hi everyone, also posted this on the DVD discussion forum... I getting back into fitness and Cathe after an ankle sprain. I want to try some circuit workouts but am not ready for anything very high impact. What are your opinions of High Step Circuit? Is it still somewhat challenging? Are...

I getting back into fitness and Cathe after an ankle sprain. I want to try some circuit workouts but am not ready for anything very high impact. What are your opinions of High Step Circuit? Is it still somewhat challenging? Are the moves tricky or bad for a recovering ankle? (Trying to avoid...
