    Unexpected muscle soreness

    Hello, Cathe: I am a veteran Cathe workout fiend. This past week, I have been doing construction labor on a house I am renovating - everything from hobit-walking under houses, lifting lumber, hammering for hours and cutting and dragging branches. Cut to the chase: I am sore to the point of...

    Butts & Guts: no soreness

    Cathe: I have never been sore in my glutes after doing Butts & Guts. I already searched previous posts on this, because I recall some discussions on it shortly after that DVD came out, but have found nothing. Can you please comment? My legs in general get a good workout and nice tired...

    Do Some Peop;e REALLY Eat This Way

    And those same people are on the path toward diabetes, colon cancer, heart attacks and all matter of preventable diseases. THEY are responsible for our rising health insurance costs. Call me a Nazi, but they really anger me. ANYONE can read the headlines on the magazines at the grocery check...

    Chronic Unhappiness/Discontent?

    Lorie - thank you! I hope that the others read that, too. No, I never have seen a psychiatrist. I took me years to overcome my perception of "character flaw" before I would talk to my GP about the depression. Imagine how long it would take for me to take it to the psychiatric level!!! I...

    Some more gym stories

    Here's another gym story: I was working out at this little kickboxing gym a couple of years ago. The owner was at least 10 years younger than I am, very friendly, very funny and a nationally-ranked kickboxer. Since day one he was clearly doing some eyeballing, but being about 98%...
