    Can you tell me about P90X?

    What is it? I'm new to working out with home programs but have seen mentioned on the board. Is it similar to the Power 90 I've seen the infomercial for? More intense? Which Cathe workouts does it resemble most? Just curious. Thanks, Marcy

    Which Step to buy.

    Definitely get the full size step. You can use it as a weight bench too. I actually just bought the high step and then the club step topper. For some reason it was few bucks cheaper that way, and I got the free Muscle Endurance video that comes with the high step. I ordered from fitness...

    WHAT ARE SCHOOLS DOING TO OUR KIDS????

    Ugh...how frustrating. I feel your pain. My kids are not in school yet, but we have my stupid in-laws to sabotage my kids' healthy eating efforts. I was feeding my 19 month old carrots, and while she normally likes them, she just didn't feel like eating them at the time. My MIL proceeds to...

    Weights & Weight Loss

    Muscle Max question...

    Ok, this is probably a silly question, so excuse me ahead of time! :) I am new to using DVD's for Cathe, have used VHS until now. On Muscle Max, what is the difference between the Mix and Match and Chapters option. They both seem the same to me. TIA, Marcy

    Which workouts will give lanky body some definition?

    RE: Ok, one more question.... **I NEED strength work for the upper body, because I don't tend towards muscle, and without it, I quickly get the "thin/fat" look that's more natural to me. (skinny arms, boney chest, but with some layers of fat..rather than the nice roundness and shaping that...
