    Stretching Exercises

    Hi everyone. I am currently 22 weeks pregnant with my first baby. It's a boy! I'm ashamed to say that I haven't exercised at all during my pregnancy and prior to it because I was going through fertility treatments and I guess I was a little depressed. I have no excuse for my first...

    What other DVD's use the bands?

    I just bought a green and a pink exercise band from fwonline in anticipation of the new workouts. What other workout use the bands? Does the GS series? Any others?

    Thinking of ordering GS series, where to get band

    I need a new 3 day split. I only have the PS series and it is on VHS and I'm done with VHS, so I was thinking of ordering the GS series. Where do you get the rubber band thingy? And about how much? Thanks.

    Anyone with insulin resistance?

    Hi I haven't been officially diagnosed with it, but my insulin levels are elevated, though not at the point to be diabetic. I'm ttc and this has been a big wake up call for me (only wish I woke up sooner so to speak). Anyway, I'm on an all out lifestyle change where I am eating as clean as...

    Exercise and TTC

    Hi Cathe & Everyone, I didn't post this in the pregnancy forum b/c this is about pre-pregnancy, but if you feel it is more appropriate in that forum please move it over. I had a question about exercising (all types) when you are actively TTC, and specifically during the 2 week wait (2WW)...

    Question re sore boobs

    This is kind of a silly question, and I'll probably have my answer tomorrow, but I'm curious. We are TTC#1. I'm on my next to last day of my 2ww. I'm due for my period tomorrow and I am having very sore boobs. I usually get sore right before my period so that's not unusual. But I'm...

    Need help with my workout plan & DVDs

    Hi everyone, I've been out of the exercise loop for a while. I start only to stop again. Then I re-hurt my knee recently. Not too bad, but I need to build my strength back (in every way conceivable - cardiovascularly, muscularly and according to my doc, I need to build some quad strength...

    Biochemical benefits from exercise

    Most everyone is interested in how long it takes to see a difference in their physical shape after starting an exercise program. I am curious about how long it takes for exercise and good nutrition to affect the inside. I was recently dx with mild PCOS (basically, my body is producing high...

    Re-starting working out and pain in ankle

    I definitely know the difference between the good and the bad pains and this is more of a bad pain. It doesn't hurt at all unless I'm working out. In the past I've dealt with shin splints and it took about a month to recover and never had a problem since. I don't think it's so much a workout...

    Re-starting working out and pain in ankle

    Hi all, I've recently gained a lot of weight adding onto the weight I already had to lose. Probably over the past year. Total I need to lose about 80 lbs. (Ugh- I hated typing that). I've really decided I'm going to do it and I started eating healthy and watching how much I eat...

    Benefits of Oatmeal?

    I happen to like oatmeal. I make it with milk, I don't know if that makes a difference, but I don't think I could eat it with just water. I usually add either SF maple syrup or SF vanilla syrup to it.

    Oatmeal

    I use sweeteners, sorry, either some sugar free maple syrup or a little vanilla flavoring. How about a tsp. of peanut butter? I tried that once and it is pretty good.

    The Ask Cathe Forum

    Just a suggetion for the future but perhaps Open Discussion should be split up the way it is on other forums. Have a general discussion for those questions that are about your videos or fitness in general and other "Off Topic" forum for everything else like eating healthy, TV shows, health &...

    OT: Disney World

    Hi there. We are going to Disney in June! I'd check out www.disboards.com. They should be able to give you suggestions on places. I thought a lot of resort hotels have suites or adjacent rooms. If you stay at a WDW resort they have shuttles that run throughout the day. If you are...

    Can you help me with a program for my husband?

    Go Navy! Yes he used to run a lot, but hasn't probably since last PFT :o. He's a much better runner than I am. I know he can/will push himself. Yes, running is part of the plan, but he also enjoys racketball and we play some tennis too when the weather is nice. I'm thinking starting...

    Can you help me with a program for my husband?

    Hi Cathe and everyone, As you can tell by my login name, my husband is in the military. He asked me today if I could help him with a workout plan to help him get in shape for his annual physical fitness test for the military. He's been playing a little too much X-box lately :-). He's not...
