I am curious as to whether the barbell is okay to use with old style Weider metal plates. (I did not see that question get answered up above) They fit. If the barbell can hold up to 200 lbs., one assumes that the composition of the plates should not matter? Thank you.

The bottom line for me is that I will no doubt buy whatever you produce, with one caveat: I would not be interested in the Intro to Cathe tape and would ask that you sell that item on its own and not combine it with another workout that I would want. I like the idea of the stylized step...

RE: The showdown................. I too was a rebel and those words "you will do what I say under my roof" drove me out of the house quite a bit sooner than I would have preferred. I think you have to do what you feel is right but if she sees things becoming too rigid, you may not like the...

My date quite often lifts weights with me as well as running, walking and a few attempts at Powerstrikes. To date, we have done the PS Series, Slow and Heavy, MIS, Power Hour and the CTX upper body compilation. I think he likes the slower tapes the best. Consistency is not always on his side...

RE: To Sue again Did I mention that you look incredible. You go girl, woman, grandmother, wow. :) I can look forward to being 50 now. :) Kim (who is 40 in June)

RE: Hi Sue thanks for the compliment. I would say that my calf development is partially genetic as I noticed them as being quite big when I was about 14. I was very athletic in school doing running, volleyball, basketball, etc. For cardio these days, I run, step, kickbox, do hi lo, and try...

this is a fun thread and it is neat to put some faces with names. If you click on my profile, there a couple of shots of me in there. They are a couple of years old but not to terribly out of date. Kim

Hi Christine I use an 8" step for Imax but then I use 8" for all my step tapes. I am 5'6" and I think that makes a difference. Kim

RE: Pushups - now problem but pullups LAST EDITED ON Dec-09-02 AT 00:32AM (Est)[p]EDIT to say no problem, not now problem but it didn't take. Briee, my situation is about identical to yours except that I am 5'6" and perhaps 135#. I can get down and wop out 40 or 50 pushups on a good day and...

RE: Someone I can relate to LAST EDITED ON Dec-06-02 AT 11:40PM (Est)[p]Hi Kim in Winnipeg I live in northern Saskatchewan but grew up on the prairies in more southern Saskatchewan, near the Manitoba border. We have had some pretty cold weather already haven't we? We hit -30 Celcius the...

RE: Hi Debbie Thanks and I am warm when I am in my house working out. :) We had some unseasonally warm weather last week but we are back in a cold snap right now. Take care. Kim

RE: In a word, Yes. nfm, everybody else said it perfectly. Kim

RE: I would do MIS first and then your cardio LAST EDITED ON Nov-23-02 AT 11:34PM (Est)[p]Hi Anna MIS really is a classic weight workout and will always be favourite of mine. It was really the first strength tape to challenge me and I credit it with the beginning to the muscle and definition...

RE: One of those other Catheholic Canadians Janick knows LAST EDITED ON Nov-23-02 AT 11:08PM (Est)[p]Hello and welcome And a big wave to Christine who I was fortunate enough to meet along with Janick (and others) during Canfitpro. I come to this site fairly regularly and post occasionally. I...

Good luck with your navel piercing. I got mine done in July and it is pretty much healed now and I can wear all of my pants, low and higher rise. I still make sure to clean it in the shower but it won't be long before that tender feeling subsides for you. I really like mine and I am going to...

RE: Hi Janick First of all, I don't think you should quit spinning because it is something you really like and any exercise you really like is one you will keep on doing. And that, as we know, is a big problem for a lot of people - being bored or not liking the exercise they chose to torture...

RE: my suggestion Hi Christine What I did was buy a set of spin lock dumbells that you can load with whatever weight you choose, provided that you already have barbell plates, and I assume that you do. I think some of the others are right when they ask what else you would ever use 40#'s for...

RE: Hi Christine (aka Nicole lookalike) :) You can add me to your list of Canadians wondering. To date, I have not received any news from CK Sales but I am sure anyone on their mailing list will hear fairly shortly. They have always offered a Cathe pre-sale and so in the mindset of precedent...

RE: Trevor is your ear pierced or your navel I ask because I suggested to a guy friend of mine that he get his navel pierced and he said he couldn't because it was a sign that a guy was in fact gay. I cannot tell from your post whether your stud is in your ear or navel. My 10 year old son...

I like the idea of 2 to 4 combined heart pounding movements as opposed to one movement. One move tends to get boring and seems to last forever whereas a combination may ease repetitive impact and give one the perception (albeit false) of time moving faster. Once again, thanks for asking Cathe...
