    Functional Lower Body with the bonus workout

    I am waiting on this one. I suspect I will use a lower step because of knee issues. This morning I followed the cardio from Cathe's Live 500 (which I love!), about 20 minutes, with the Bonus Balance on Functional Upper Body. Doubt I will be doing this one very much. It's all down on the mat, and...

    Functional Upper Body

    I did this one today and once again, really liked it. Many new moves, easy pacing, moderate weights. As in her Live workouts, she stops for water, which I greatly appreciate. I never preview, so I didn't realize that the balance disks are for the add-on workout, so if you are like me, and just...

    Functional total body

    I did this one today and enjoyed it a lot. I am 78 years old and had no difficulty with the weights or the pacing. A couple of the plank exercises were offered do-able modifications which I used. 54 minutes of a pleasurable workout. Looking forward to the others now, unafraid.

    Osteoporosis drugs

    Anyone had issues—side effects—from taking fosamax or prolia shots? I have had problems with both.

    Cathe Live Flash Sale - One Year Subscription Only $89

    I love her live workouts because so many of them are express. Lately I have done her 2 express pha workouts (38 min. and 34 min.) over and over because they are all standing, short, and good conditioning and heart thumping. I also love 40 minute Box and Burn and 40/20–both low impact and 40...

    Watch The 10th Video From Lift, Move & Restore - Functional Total Body

    These clips look as challenging as ever. I really thought she would be doing something for her older exercisers like me, but the clips tell me this 77 year old will probably not be able to do this stuff.

    Cathe’s New Lift, Move & Restore Series Makes Balance Training Fun!

    I am dismayed about all the new equipment I bought today for this new series. I hope it will be worth it.

    Fast and fun! I like the 20 rep limit. The end is always in sight.

    Cathe's PHA - Pump & Burn Express 2 Live Workout

    I loved the first one and will definitely put this one in my rotation next week! The first one definitely gets your heart rate going.

    Video Clip Of Cathe's Lower Body Step Blast Live Workout

    I did this one yesterday without a step, and felt like I got a great workout. But I am old. I may do it next time with just the platform. We will see. I also do The Heat Is On with no step and really find that it works for me. Just some advice for the faint at heart.

    Announcing My Next Workout Series

    Definitely for me. I am 77 and have been working out with you since my 40s. I no longer even try to lift the same amount of weight as in STS 2.0; nor do I do a lot of the high impact cardio in the Live workouts. But I keep up pretty well.

    Video Clip Of Cathe's Holy Hamstrings Live Workout

    I did this one yesterday and thought I had a really good leg workout even if I didn't always use the 15s when most of the exercisers did. The one exercise that really flummoxed me was holding that weight up in one hand while doing a back lunge. Maybe I will just use a 5 lb. next time. I ended up...

    Video Clip Of Cathe's The Heat Is On Live Workout

    I did this one today without any step and eliminated most of the impact from the cardio. No problem with the weights which I kept the same as Jen's. A very fun workout for my 76 year old body.

    Loved this one today and many thanks for the demonstrations of modifications—especially on the kneel down stand up round.

    Video Clip Of Cathe's Hiit That Upper Body” LIVE Workout

    I have done this one twice now, and what I especially like about it is the pacing. I love the idea of 21 and Done, but I am out of breath on that one and its pacing, which is really too fast for this old lady in her 70s; so I appreciate when I can keep up with Cathe's minions like this one.

    I really like this one. It flies by and I needed something short after recovering from the flu. Still a lot of fatigue.

    Fast fun! I added some one-arm rows at the end for some back work.

    Video Clip of Cathe's Standing Legs Live Workout

    I enjoyed this one today. Once again, you can make it as hard as you want by increasing the weight. I kept it at an intermediate level I think with a 40 lb. barbell, and never going over the 15 lb. dumbbells on the other rounds. I also went down to 12s on some of the rounds. What I appreciate...

    Video Clip Of Cathe's Upper Lower Combos Live Workout

    I did this one today and found it to be the right challenge for me in this hot weather. Cathe gives you some breaks for water and previews of the combos. Intermediate for me because I sometimes chose a lower weight than Cathe, especially in the combos. Just 43 min. too!

    Another Cathe Live idea: another like "3-3-3"

    I did this one yesterday and think it's a great workout. If you want a shorter workout, you could skip the final round. I was definitely tempted and modified for less intensity. I couldn't believe she added on those burpees too. Yikes! But I did it all.
