When I first saw those, I thought - is she kidding? However, I had already come to the conclusion that Cathe must be partially nuts to think of all these torture moves :-)! I've been doing mine from the knees, and they are still tough, but I'm seeing some progress! I may next try them in a...

Cathe, In order to use our work fitness center, I had to undergo a fitness evaluation. While I scored extremely high on the strength and flexibility tests, my aerobic index was under average (based on some YMCA criteria inclining the treadmill and measuring HR). I've been doing your tapes...

My top 3 (yes, there is a list) are (order changes depending on my mood): George C., Matthew M. and Paul Walker. Last one might be a little young for me, but if men can do it, why can't we?

Karin, I, too, debated about buying a barbell. I modified for a while, and also found that some of the exercises were a bit awkward with the DBs. I finally broke down and bought a 100lb set with a solid 15lb bar on sale at Dick's for about $40. Originally, I bought another set that had a...

Deanie - thanks for the info. I found that I had to go up a lot in my latest Rykas. I usually wear a 6.5 in street shoes, and buy a 7 in athletic shoes. In Rykas (both the Enlight and the N-gage XT's) I had to by an 8! They feel big on me, but in the 7.5's, it felt like my toes were...

Deanie - can you please tell me what number you phoned for Ryka? When I called the number posted on Cathe's site last week (888-834-7952), I was told that the Enlight II's are $70 (versus the $49.99 deal you got). I have the Enlights and would love to snag a pair of the Enlight II's before...

I just bought a back-up pair (brand new) on eBay for $45 including shipping. I had to go up a whole size in Rykas, which was odd for me (usually only 1/2 size for all athletic shoes). Seller was great. Might even buy another pair just in case! Check out her store if you like (she has the...

I had forgotten that you could take the Polars to jewelry stores. However, I just found it more convenient to change the battery myself (plus, I recall something about Polar potentially voiding the warrenty if anyplace other than an "authorized dealer" changed the battery). My Nike Imara is...

I have a Nike Imara HRM that I really like. It has all of the things you would want (HR, time in, above and below your zone, calories burned, etc.). I paid about $70 for it new on eBay. The main reason I liked the Nike over the Polar is because you can change the battery yourself. With the...

Thanks so much for the info. I've been in search of a new pair of shoes for the longest time, and it has been very frustrating. Like many, I don't like the mid-height of regular studio shoes. I liked the Nike Shox Legends, but the heel was a bit wide for me, so they didn't work, either. I've...

Did you ever get this figured out? I, too, am having trouble. I'm no rocket scientist, but I'm not stupid, either. Even though the DVD is chaptered, there aren't any titles that show up. As a result, it looks like I have to figure out each of the 58 (!) titles, and then align the chapters...
