I own most of your video's, so I guess I would consider myself an advanced exerciser. I'm not clear if the new videos will be beneficial for advanced exercisers, and then there will be a modifier that will be show what to do to make the moves intermediate (which is what I am hoping), or if you...

Melissa, You said that a 1,000 calorie deficit seems like a big deficit, and I just wanted to mention that I've heard there are 3,000 calories in one pound, so if you are creating a 1,000 calorie deficit, you would lose about 2 pounds a week, which sounds logical if you only eat 1,400...

I was thinking it would be a great workout to have high rep, low rep in one workout. For example, you would bench 55-60% of your one rep max for 24 reps, then the next set would take it up to 80-85% for 8 reps, then do 24 reps at the lower weight and 8 reps at the higher weight for a total of 4...

Cathe, My kids always look at me like I'm crazy when I say things like, "Boy, Cathe kicked my butt this morning," or "Cathe's so funny, she said 'We're taking a break, not a vacation'," I can just tell they are thinking, "Mom, she's not really down in the basement with you!" I can't wait to...

I think I created my calendar wrong. I just went into each individual day on the calendar and added the workout... but this helps a lot. Next time I'll create my monthly workout as a rotation so I can move it. If I do create a rotation and am half way through it, will I be able to leave the...

I have a rotation set up for the next month that I really like, but got busy at work and skipped a week... now I need to move everything down a week. Is there a way to do this without having to move each individual icon? (If not possible, this would come in really handy, even if I skip one...

I just wanted to let you know that on Disc 25 - Chest and Back the 26th exercise down (4th set of Deadlifts) the exercise shows as Barbell Row, but it should be Deadlift.

Great post, thanks Cynthia... it does feel like this is what is happening!

Definitely worth the money. Not only are the workouts fantastic, but the thing I like the best is that it is soooo easy to stay motivated. Since it is a three month program, you never want to get off track, which I find makes me get my workouts in no matter what. Honestly at first I was a...

I just thought I'd let you know the last set of Flat Bench Tricep Extensions on Workout Card for Disc 13 shows target reps of 8 and it should be TF.

This totally doesn't answer your question, but I get great results from Pyramids. I don't necessarily think of them as heavy training, but when I mix them in between a heavy training week and an endurance week, I just feel like they make me way stronger. This is one of my favorite workouts...

I'm not sure if any of you are interested in this suggestion, but it's really helping me, so I thought I'd throw it out there... There were a few exercises that I did not perform the 1RM on (mostly because I didn't know what they were, or they had one star by them). When I did the 1st disc...

Not Cathe... but I think I remember Cathe talking pretty extensively on her blog about how they did the music. The music was written after the workout was done... you might want to scroll down on her blog, if I remember correctly it was very detailed.

You might want to try a frizbee on the carpet, I saw that someone suggested it, and I tried it and it worked very well.

Uh oh, I'm a freak too then! I guess when you lift for years and years and finally find a workout that can still get you sore... that's the best!

If you get Fit TV, don't forget Cathe is on there, I think 3 times a day, and then you'd have Step Blast, Rhythmic Step, and IMAX 2. I agree with Shana Drill Max is fun. I like Body Max 2 and 4 Day Split. They both have premixes, so if you are doing STS you can play a premix and only do...

Thanks Chris, this is perfect.

Not Cathe here, but yes, you will lift 15. I think Cathe used weighted gloves so she could increase weights by 1, 2, 3 or 4 pounds, another option is to use plate mates (magnetic weights that stick to the end of dumbells to increase the weight by 1 or 2 pounds at a time)... I have plate mates...

Ah... it's in the "weight" section that makes sense. Isn't it like 11PM in NJ... you should go to bed :) Thanks

Chris or Cathe (or anyone that knows what I'm doing wrong), I tried to create Cathe's Cardio Quick Fix in the Workout Manager so I could add it to my calendar, and it looks like it was created, however it is not an option to add to my calendar. If it's possible to add the workout I created...
