    Hiking

    Thank you all for the great info. I knew this was the place to come for good advice. My quads are what feel like jelly on the way down, and then my knees hurt. I am working on doing my Cathe with two risers on my step to hopefully strengthen those muscles more. Thanks a bunch, Sarah

    Hiking

    Hi all, I love hiking, but on the downhill my legs turn to jelly and make the rest of the hike very unpleasant. I do lots of Cathe (and love it), but I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on what specific exercises I can do to strenghten my downhill muscles. Any suggestions would be...

    Bras

    Hello ladies, I'm hoping some of you exercise fanatics can help me. I have been unable to find a bra that fits me. I am a small A, with a large rib cage. If I get a 34, the cups fit, but are too close together, and it is way too tight. I have even tried a bra extender, and that was still very...

    Cathy Vids

    I have recently gotten a few Cathy DVD's and found that I am spoiled and cannot go back to the VHS. I have been replacing all my Cathy vids with DVD and now have quite a collection of Cathy vids that are in really good shape. Any suggestions about what to do with old vids? It doesnt seem right...

    Dear Cathy, I am ashamed to say it but I havn't ordered the new intensity series yet. I love your tapes though, and cant bring myself to do any other ones any more.

    Unilateral glute soreness after lunges

    Dear Jul, I have noticed for a while that I am stronger and more defined on one side. I have even gone to the Chiropractor thinking that something was out and have never been able to fix the problem. It really bothers me. But some friends of mine who body build for competetion say that is...

    Unilateral glute soreness after lunges

    Dear GN, Body Rx is a book by Dr. Scott Connely. He outlines a 6-month program of eating and weight training to really get you lean and sculpted. I got the book from the library just to see what it was about and really liked the info. He also has a website at bodyrx.com. I totally understand...

    Moved from MIS to S&H

    Hi, I just bought slow & heavy myself. I havent tried it yet, but I have been doing the Body Rx program where you lift the heaviest weight you can for 6 reps. I like that style too. That is why I bought the S&H. I look foreward to trying it. I am encouraged by the post workout soreness! I also...

    Unilateral glute soreness after lunges

    Thank you for the reply. I was called Girafflegs when I was a kid because I was taller than all the other kids and had long skinny legs. Actually, last time I did lunges I held the dumbells at my sides instead of on my shoulders and the problem went away. It must be something about how I...

    Unilateral glute soreness after lunges

    Dear Cathe or knowlegable readers, First of all, I have really enjoyed reading the forums and have had lots of my questions answered already. I do MIS 3 times a week on non-consecutive days and have noticed that when I do rear lunges, I can feel my right glute working but not my left. I also...

    The Firm Sculpting System?

    Hi, I'm new to Cathy but I had to respond to this one. I bought the Firm system before I tried any Cathy tapes. I found them not very challenging. Also, after a few weeks my knees hurt and I have never had knee trouble before. I think the Cathy tapes are much more effective. I use MIC, MIS, and...
