    Just Shocked

    This is my first time replying to any of the new DVD issue complaints and I really haven't because it seems so silly. My overwhelming thought is that I realize that fitness is a big part of our lives, but there should be other things going on in these people's lives as or certainly more...

    bonding teeth??

    I've had bonding done on a chip I have on a front tooth and my regular dentist filled it in for no charge. My daughter has also had some bonding on her front teeth because she had some decalcification from a fever as a child. It looks good and is painless. It can wear off and be temporary...

    Just started P90X

    Just wanted to mention that I mix Ab Ripper with Cathe abs workouts for the 3 ab days on P90x. Ab Ripper is great, but sometimes it's a bit straining on my back with some of the moves. I love Cathe's abs from MuscleMax and some others, so I've been mixed that up. My abs are already pretty...

    Am I being too sensitive??

    No, that is very weird and I wouldn't be comfortable with them at all. First because how do you know how well they are supervising your child and second, it's just rude. If you child wants to go over there again I would ensure that you are able to meet the parent or else have the friend...

    Just started P90X

    Hi Jen: I'm almost done with my 3rd week of Phase 1 of P90X. I have to say that Cathe's workouts have made it so P90X was definitely challenging, but not to the point of excess. My first week I was super sore (in a good way), especially my back, but I pushed through all the workouts anyway...

    Hormone and thyroid testing - blood or saliva?

    Interesting . . . I have had chronic headaches for 25 years and have tried practically everything imaginable. I read something about chronic headaches and thyroid issues and thought that's one test I never had. Also, my head is worse around my period, so thought maybe I should have my hormonal...

    Hormone and thyroid testing - blood or saliva?

    I may need to have testing done to check my thyroid as well as hormone levels. Although it seems that most doctors do blood panels, I've been reading that saliva testing is more comprehensive. Does anyone know anything abou this?

    Mammogram question for you ladies

    I think it's only natural to jump to a scary conclusion when you get a recall from any physician, even though the odds are it is nothing. It seems that they never thoroughly explain things and you're left hanging until the next visit. I've had several skin cancer issues and as time goes on...

    P90X cardio DVD's not advanced enough?

    Thanks everyone for your input on this! I appreciate your support and advice and it makes it much easier to trust a new rotation/instructor when you have people who have done it and understand where you're coming from.

    P90X cardio DVD's not advanced enough?

    I'm definitely committed to sticking with the rotation and it sounds like it creates incredible results. I've been doing Cathe so long, I guess it's just a mindset. If I lose some of my endurance after the 90 days, I'll be able to use the new Cathe DVD's to crank it up!

    P90X cardio DVD's not advanced enough?

    I've just completed my second week of P90X. I find the Plyometrics fun and a good workout. Kenpo is fun, but I don't get my heart rate up as much as I try. Tony and kids are sweating like crazy. I feel like Cathe has really raised my level of cardio fitness and this isn't doing it for me. I...

    Question for those of you who have done P90X?

    I'm not a pro, as I am just finishing my second week of P90X tomorrow. But, if it were me, I would start week 3 and see how much I could get done and how I felt. If it was a good week, I'd move on to week 4 after that. If I felt like I wasn't able to put in a solid week 3, I would probably...

    Duke rape case - did anyone watch 60 Minutes?

    My husband and I watched it. I would have a tendency to go with the woman's point of view, but didn't in this case. If what was presented by 60 Minutes is accurate, then the 3 were railroaded by the District Attorney who is seeking re-election. He pandered to the Africian American community in...

    Mass building/loss on P90X?

    Kathryn: I've been so focused on doing P90X that I didn't consider what happens afterwards. It seems disappointing that you can make gains and then lose them when you are done with the rotations. Any thoughts as to why you didn't maintain? I'd like to use your experience to avoid that...

    Mass building/loss on P90X?

    Great! How do I find it on the message boards? I went to beachbody.com and message boards . . . how do I find you guys?

    Mass building/loss on P90X?

    Did you guys all follow the eating plan/supplements as well or just the workouts? I wish there was a way to check in with Cathe people on P90X. I'm not that crazy about the P90X forum on Beachbody. At least it's not the same as this forum and I enjoy hearing how you guys did/are doing and...

    Mass building/loss on P90X?

    Thanks so much ladies; guess I was off base with my initial impression. Now I'm off to do legs and back even though my body is sore from head to toe from Yoga X!

    Mass building/loss on P90X?

    I received my P90X DVD's and began the classic rotation on Monday, so I just finished day 4 (man, Yoga X is so hard!) I've watched all the DVD's one time through just to get familiar with them. Is it my imagination or is there alot of strength training without weights? I realize that some...

    PLB variations & challenges

    I struggle with this one also. I found that if I tip the leg that's straight up in the air toward myself a bit, maybe 10%, rather than having it straight up and down, I can do the move a bit better and it doesn't seem to hurt my form too much. Still, I can't do alot of them.

    Woodchucks in KPC

    Not Cathe or not that it matters, but I think it's wood "chops".
