    Thanks Renee! I haven't tried this, but I think I could do it. I just don't want any injuries. I'm 49 and have had knee surgery twice as a teenager. I have to be careful! Congrats on you weight loss!

    Bootcamp and HSTA.....what to do afterwards????

    Could you do a heavy weight workout after BootCamp, HSTA, or a similar workout? These seem more cardio than anything else.

    Question doing BootCamp, HSTA, or similar workouts afte...

    Could you do BootCamp or HSTA after a weight day since they really don't have that many weight sections in them? They seem more cardio to me.

    Do Original Step Risers Fit the High Step Topper?

    I did this too. I did buy an extra riser to since I the step only came with 4. Fitness First has really good prices and customer service. I ordered the step, the high step topper, and the extra riser and had them in my house in 2 days! http://www.fitness1st.com/steps-benches.html

    Heart Rate Monitors

    I have the Fit3 by Sports Instruments. I love it because it records your HR in 3 zones. http://www.store.yahoo.com/heartzones/spinfit3hera.html I have the Polar M32, also. It is a great monitor, also. I just wanted to see how long I was in each zone with my different workouts.

    Help choosing a step workout!

    I knew if all of them were like Body Max, I might as well not even try! I would learn a section and then I would hear those dreaded words, "We are putting it all together and adding on!" At that point I ended up just watching and wondering...."How in the world!"

    Help choosing a step workout!

    Thanks so much! Are there any of the intervals or circuit type workouts that use the step that would not be so hard?

    My husband doesn't think I NEED the presale items!

    I always ask my husband, "Would you rather me spend the money every month on workouts or on medical bills and medicine?" I'm doing this to stay healthy!

    Bootcamp kicked my butt!

    Can someone tell me if Boot Camp is high impact and if it is, can it be modified to low. Also, how hard is the choreography?

    Knee Injury

    Cathe, I haven't used your videos in years. The last ones I used was your Step N Motion Videos--I ordered them when they first came out. I loved them, but after years of using the step, my old basketball injuries from high school and college prevented my from continuing. I am able to do all of...
