    What's your favorite SJP/Step Blast Premix?

    There are so many premixes to choose from on this dvd! I'm looking for a step + weights workout that flows smoothly and is fun! I'd like to avoid anything very high impact due to a sore achilles tendon, but I still want to work hard and sweat! Any recommendations?

    Lo Max...oh my goodness!

    I just did the entire version of Lo Max today and, oh my gosh, what a workout! I had previously only done the FitTv version but the full workout is soooo much longer and more intense! I will qualify this by saying that I've been recovering from the flu (2 weeks!) and I still don't have my...

    Favorite Premixes

    I'm just getting back into the swing of things after being sick for the past 2 weeks. I definitely feel ready to start exercising again, but I still don't have enough oomph to do an entire Cathe workout. I'm looking for some shorter, fun premixes to get my body going again. I'd love to get...

    Need some Flu recovery advice

    I hardly ever get sick but whatever hit me last Thursday, knocked me off my feet. No stomach stuff (thank goodness), just aches and pains, low grade fever, a bit of a cough, sore throat and some nasty, painful nasal stuff. I haven't been sick at all since starting Cathe about 18 months ago...

    Whey Protein Powder

    I just broke down and bought some chocolate flavored Whey Protein Powder (I've been avoiding it) but now I don't know what to do with it. The can says it's 100 cal. per scoop, but it doesn't contain a scoop...what would be considered a scoop - a Tablespoon? I'd love to hear any...

    Looking for an upper body workout/premix

    Does anyone know how long the Muscle Endurance upper body split premix is? I'm looking for an all upper body workout for tomorrow. I have MIS, Power Hour, ME and many of Cathe's circuit workouts. I don't want to do the BM2 premix because I've done that one a lot recently. Any suggestions?

    LOST!

    Okay, I admit that I was sitting on my couch crying my eyes out when I thought Jin was dead. I got ready for bed thinking about the story line and that's when it occurred to me that Jin might still be on the island! The Oceanic 6 (I guess Aaron was one and Sun is the last) are keeping with a...

    Just ordered Lo Max - Excited!!

    I was fed up with doing the incomplete FitTv version, with the constant commercial interruptions. I want the whole enchilada so I (impulsively) ordered it today! Can't wait to try this entire workout! :-)

    The downside of exercising after a long day at work is....

    you might not even realize which workout routine you are doing! Happened to me today...I came home feeling tired, frustrated and fuzzy-headed and wanted a fun pick-me-up kind of a workout with some weights. Decided that Step,Jump & Pump would be perfect - put it in - sweated, stumbled...

    Gayle...great protien pancakes!!!!

    Thanks for this recipe (posted under the 'need egg-white recipes' thread). I didn't think I'd like them, but gave them a shot on Saturday. Can't believe how much I enjoyed them! I made 10 small pancakes, had 5 for breakfast (with blueberries) 2 for lunch (with natural PB) and 2 for snack...

    Kathryn, where did you get your chickpeas?

    I noticed your 'lunchtime' post on the the Ask Cathe Forum. Cardamon spiced chickpeas sound wonderful! I'd love to try them. Would I need to go to a health food store to buy them? I'm always looking to perk up my salads. Can you suggest any other healthy and interesting salad items? Thanks!

    Barbell Newbie - why does it hurt?

    After a year of working out with Cathe using only dumbells, and in an attempt to get more serious about weight lifting, I finally broke down and bought my first barbell set...100 lbs with a 10 lb. bar. I also bought a bar pad and some cute, little weight gloves. I used my new barbell for...

    Seeking advice from the weight lifters

    I'm looking for some advice from the fabulously knowledgable weight lifters on this list. I've come to the realization that I am a cardio addict who needs to add some regular heavy weight lifting sessions into a weekly routine. I need to do Cardio 4 times per week (minimum) simply because...

    broken shut-off switch i.e. eating everything in sight....

    I swear I have a broken shut-off switch when it comes to food. I have to regulate my food intake everyday (in a journal) in order to stay in control of my eating otherwise I'd always overeat. I simply never feel full...even after a huge meal. I can always find room for one more thing -...

    Healthy soup recipes/cookbook?

    I just love soup in the winter! It helps to keep me warm, healthy and happily full and satisfied. I have two recipes that I've been living off of. One is the Weight Wathchers Vegetable soup and the other is called Good Greans Soup (aptly named because it's loaded with wonderful green veggies)...

    MP3 Recommendations for Running

    The posts about Cardio Coach have me thinking that it might be time to buy my first MP3 player. I need something to shake up my running routine and this sounds like the ticket! Sadly, I am in the technological dark ages and I could use some advice. I'm just looking for something simple to...
