    I have been a major Cathe fan for the last 7 years, but have not purchased any of her real recent stuff. I am looking for a new DVD to add to my collection similar to Step Blast or Rythmic Step, or my favorite Body Max 2 Cardio Blast Premix. I like more advanced workouts, so I am asking all...

    I don't know what's wrong...

    Just a little background... about 3 years ago I lost about 15 lbs and was in the best shape of my life. Since then I have gained about 20 (so disappointed in myself), dieting and exercising on and off. I have decided it is time to take this weight off for good. For the past 2 weeks I have...

    Too much cardio??

    I need everyone's expert opinion on what works best for them. I am trying to lose around 20 pounds and am a total cardio junkie. However, I read conflicting information in regards to what is the best way to lose fat and build lean muscle mass (imagine that). I lift weights 3 times a week, but...

    I'm at a loss and I need your HELP!

    I am at a complete loss. To give you a little background, I have been doing Cathe for about 5 years now. I tend to be somewhat of a yo yo eater though. I go through periods of really clean eating, really serious workout schedules and I get really lean and fit. Then something like a vacation...

    Okay ladies, out of all Cathe's rotations...

    ... which one's gave you the best results. I love to follow her rotations, but I'm looking for one to help me shed fat and gain muscle definition without bulking up. I want to look lean and toned. I am wondering if I should be doing less cario and more weights. I'm kind of a cardio junkie so...

    Is it realistic...

    to lose 20 pounds in 8 weeks without doing an Atkins type diet? I have considered doing Atkins just to get the quick results, but I don't know how well I can handle almost no carbs. I thought about maybe just reducing my carbs dramatically to see if that helps (I tend to eat carbs every meal...

    Back to Cathe

    Hello all! I haven't been on here for quite some time because I moved to a new house where I was unable to do my Cathe workouts because I had no workout room. :( So, I very unwillingly sold almost all my Cathe DVD's (except for IMAX 2/Cardio Weights, Step Blast/SJP because I could not BEAR...

    Before Bed Snack

    I need some help. I workout very early in the morning and find that my workouts are much more productive if I eat something about an hour before I go to bed at night. I usually just eat some cottage cheese or plain low fat yogurt, but lately I still seem sluggish in the morning. Anyone have...

    Leg results with P90X

    I know there are a million posts on here about P90X and I read through many of them. It seems like it does a great job building the upper body, but how does it do with the lower body? I am really in the mood the change things up (not that I don't LOVE Cathe, but I just need something...

    For all you ladies who spin at home...

    Okay, I am thinking about getting a spinning bike for my home. For all of you who do spinning workouts at home, what do you think? Does it take up a lot of room? Does the bike make any noise? I have not done any spinning before (I plan to try a class at my gym before I actually run out and...

    I need your thoughts (sorry, a little long)...

    Yesterday I was at the grocery store with my 2 1/2 year old daughter. We got in line to check out and there was a man in front of us in line. I didn't really notice him until he turned around and starting talking to my daughter. He was dirty with teeth missing and had sores on his face. He...

    For all you ladies who workout with headphones on, which kind do you use that keep them from falling off? I am on my second kind now and I can't keep them from falling out when I run or when I start to sweat. Have any of you had any luck with headphones that stay in place during running or...
