Thanks for the info! :) Can you inform us when the presale price is likely to increase? I know we usually get a notice a few days in advance, but I'm just planning May's budget.

Very true!

I just read today's email on Cathlete of the Month - Aven Ellis What an inspiring story! Best wishes to Aven as she continues to fight stage 4 cancer! Perhaps a section on the forums could be set-up for the Cathlete of the Month.

I so agree! Cathe does use some movements/exercises in her workouts where a kettlebell could be used making me think she borrowed the moves from kettlebell exercises. So she could make one. However, I think Cathe is cautious and wants to have some type of certification or specialized training...

It just keeps the post near the top of the "new" postings so people can see it and doesn't get buried. If, like me, that's how one checks for the latest posts.

Hi Lise, you bring up an interesting topic that we have discussed a few times in our household. Seems the terms are used by various professionals in the fitness industry in different ways. HiIT is  high intensity interval training with emphasis on high intensity. This is where you alternate...

You could use the band to make the push-ups harder ;) (they're hard enuf for me as is!)

So I'd be open to a step circuit workout, where my regular club step could be substituted (that's what I use with High Step Circuit). With some good music ala Low Impact Circuit or Cardio & Weights! :)

I actually use them a lot, probably because I still use Cathe's older weight work DVDs where she uses them as "finishers ". And in Travel Fit & LITE Body Weight & Bands. And I'll sometimes do my PT exercises from 2 summers ago for my neck/back which use bands.

This puzzles me somewhat. I have only one of Cathe's high-step workouts & have no desire to have the others. I obviously use a higher step (14") for lower body work for step-ups and one-leg lunges and for UB bench work. And that's what I was thinking when I clicked on it. I think that all...

Cathe often uses bands as "finishes" in UB weight work. The fabric bands are used as an assist for dips (i don't have the strength for that so I choose a different option) and for push-ups in STS2.0 Also a flat band is used in a StretchMax segment, which I love. I'll sometimes sub it in a...

Thanks for all the ideas! I'm going to look into this in more detail. We don't have a Pilates studio nearby so i don't have anyone who offers instruction. I see that Yamuna has a website & offers books & dvds. I'm going to check their YouTube channel also. It does look a lot like foam...

Interesting ... there are some YouTube videos on the Yamuna's ... I'm gonna create a playlist ... hmmmm..

Hazlady you have some interesting "toys". I see there are some DVDS on Amazon for the Yamuna balls. Have you used those or do you have any recommendations on how to use therapy balls effectively? I was introduced to their use in PT for my neck/back 2 years ago & am curious about them. I have...

Those incremental weights really help me "grow" my weight increases in a reasonable & safe manner. I also use yoga blocks much more than I thought I would. I even use a block to support my head when lying on my side for some exercises. Does anyone use therapy balls, tennis balls or lacrosse...

Maybe a multipurpose cardio, where you could use your treadmill, spin bike, rower, x-c ski machine, step, elleptical, etc. I don't know what that would look like but if anyone could create one, it'd be Cathe! (No pressure hee hee :rolleyes:)

Pretty much "all the things"! Cuz I got 'em & I wanna use 'em! Love variety! :)
