    Next Workout Series....

    This is why I prefer communicating in person because things get misconstrued sometimes when written. Nathalie, My response to your post was only to let you know that although I was moaning, I did just do it, do it! Yay, Me!! :) I know you did not mention push-ups in your post, I did...

    Next Workout Series....

    Don't get me wrong, I love being challenged, especially by Cathe. However that doesn't mean that I'm not going to do it or complain sometimes while I'm doing it. I'm only human. :-) For the record, I did every push-up. :-) Thanks Justine for giving me one more reason to look forward to getting...

    Next Workout Series....

    This thread made me smile. I just have to know, how would you change the original STS for the over 40 & 50 crowd? :-) I know I want to take out some push ups and I'm not 40 yet! Sorry, I just finished disc 7 which I've lovingly nicknamed the push-up disc! Lol

    Half way ups on 1RM?

    Hello, I am in week 3 of STS, and I had this same question when I was doing my 1RMs. There is a post on the forum somewhere that states that for exercises that are partial reps like the lunges, and for the 21s exercises that it is not possible to find a 1RM and we should use a weight that...

    What size Foam Roller should I get?

    Hi, I have a 36" foam roller. I got the longer one because I wanted to use it on my legs. This length makes it possible for me to use it on both legs at the same time. I also got the longer one so that when I'm in the supine position with the roller in the middle of by back, it goes the entire...

    4 weeks in, 7 #s down

    Hi Steph! Congrats on the weight loss and getting back to working out. :-) I know exactly where you are coming from about having the mindset that if you don't follow the video as close to exact as possible that the workout doesn't count. I'm slowly coming out of that mindset also. In fact...

    Lengh of shorts for women 40+

    I think if you look good in them and feel confident, wear what you want. That's what I do. I refuse to dress how someone else thinks I should dress because it makes them uncomfortable, or worse yet, because they think I'm too old. Keep looking fabulous in your shorts! :-)

    New Workouts

    Mostly looking forward to the X10 Workouts. I definitely need something for those weeks when life is crazy busy and you want to work out but just don't have more than about 25-30 minutes to do it. Excited to see the others as well! :D

    Pyramid Lower Body

    Thanks for sharing this. I will definitely try this because some days I just don't feel like having to keep switching the plates on the barbell. This will be a great alternative. :-)

    Pound Rockout Workout

    Hi! I have taken a pound class and it is really fun! I forgot I was working out until the soreness reminded me the next morning. I highly recommend giving it a try if you have the chance. It's a good workout and lots of fun to boot! :-)

    Just sayin'

    Hi Clare, The Hi/Low Intervals is on the Hardcore Extreme DVD. It's a compilation of the Hardcore Series workouts. I remember you replied to a previous post that you had all or most of Cathe's compilation discs but you had never used them and never will. Sounds like it might be time to break...

    Fitness Equipment enabling.....

    I was wondering the same thing about shipping. I found this on the website. Items purchased will need to be picked up on either Saturday, August 24th or Monday, August 26th, 9 am – 2 pm. Everything must be removed by August 26. There is a truck height loading dock available.. It may be...

    Shipping?

    I felt the same way about X-Train last year. It shipped when I was out of town for the holidays. I told the post office to hold my mail, but unfortunately they delivered it anyway. I am so glad my neighbor picked it up and kept it for me.

    i never noticed

    That one I missed. However, I did notice in Crossfire that Cathe says we are going to do 12 warrior lunges and end up doing 16. Yikes! I noticed it because by that point, I barely had enough energy to do 12 let alone 16! lol :D Had I been in better shape the first time I did Crossfire I...

    Breaking Weightloss Plateaus

    Thanks for sharing. Up until recently, I believed that the closer I got to my goal weight, the less I had to eat and the harder I had to work out, only to be frustrated because the scale wasn't budging. Once I figured out that you have to eat more to lose and bust through the plateau, you could...
