    Labral tear of the hip

    Hi alsrnbsn! Good to hear from someone who knows what I'm talking about..lol. Yes, Portsmouth Naval Hospital is a very good MTF and I'm actually very confident in my doctors. As for the six months recovery time, I believe they mean to getting back to 100%, I'll only be on convalescent leave...

    Labral tear of the hip

    Thanks Cathe, I appreciate your good wishes. As for the dye injected MRI, it's nasty is all I can say...lol. Like you, I could live with the needle going in, but it was the dye that was the wierd part. The doctor kept telling me to take deep breaths over and over. It was the strangest...

    Labral tear of the hip

    Thanks fitnessangel. Unfortunately with the military we can't go out and get second opinions even through tricare. If we have the medical facilities available to us this is what we have to take....the drawbacks of being military and having free medical care. I'm not too worried though, I know...

    Labral tear of the hip

    Hi Cathe, I just went back to find your old msgs of your recent injury because even though yours was the knee, I was just curious what they did to find it. I found you had to go through everything I have to. First, I was doing your programs every day from about last October to this...

    The dreaded groin injury

    Hi, Yes, I had xrays taken yesterday and she looked it over. She said my hip and joint were in excellent condition, but now she may think it's the sac in the joint that may be causing the problem. The motrin was helping some, but she gave me a steroid shot right in the hip and said that I...

    The dreaded groin injury

    Cathe, or anyone else this has possibly happened to: I'm totally devastated at the moment. For the past month I've been plagued with a problem on my right side (not realizing it was the groin muscle) and it really bothered me when ever I did anything that involved abducting. Well, after...

    Kickboxing

    Can I jump in here?...:) I'm wondering if anyone knows what type of glove Cathe is wearing in the Kick Max video? I've searched the web everywhere and even checked out all her recommended stores and couldn't find anything close to it. Any help is greatly appreciated :)

    Stability Ball question

    Me again. I think I may have answered my own question. I did a search for stability balls and found a page that goes into detail about what size balls you should use. They also had a chart: Ball Diameter User Height 20-25 cm. ball (8-10 inches) =For non-sitting exercises requiring...

    Stability Ball question

    I'm wondering what size they use also. I have the 65cm ball from the Core Secret series (I threw out all their DVD's because they don't hold a candle to Cathe's) and it seems a bit huge for me when I'm doing core training. I'm 5'4" 115 lbs and wondering what size ball is good for my frame...

    When do you work out?

    I'm not a morning person at all, so it takes everything I have to just get out of bed and get to work. I run in the afternoons and do Cathe's workouts in the evening around 6pm or 7pm for 1-2 hours. I know that is too late in the evening, but it's really the only time I have and until I get a...

    Coffee raising cortisol level question

    I love working out and staying fit. Besides doing Cathe DVD's I also run 3 miles a day at lunch. But there is no way (in you know what) that I'll ever give up my morning coffee!...lol. There is nothing like that first sip of coffee in the morning. It's one of those little pleasures in life...

    New to the Cathe series!

    This is for Cathe, I have been a Firm workout fanatic for about 2 years and noticed a plateau about a year ago but still kept on doing them. I'm also an avid runner since I've been in the Navy for the last 19 years. But then I started to get the Collage Video magazines in the mail and was...
