    Full body vs. Splits - forgive me if this has been disc...

    After lurking on this board for a couple years, I still am somewhat unclear about the reasons for doing full body weight workouts vs. splits. Every fitness book/article I have read usually recommends several full body weight workouts a week for beginners. Most suggest that as you progress...

    Anyone use Cathe exclusively?

    Hi all. Am fairly recent convert to Cathe, love both her cardio and strength. In fact, I like them so much, that all my other vids are collecting dust -- I'm not sure if I'll ever go back to them! Should I hesitate to sell off all my non-Cathe vids? Each video seems to have a much better...

    Defensive non-exercisers?

    Hi y'all, I am fairly new to Cathe, but a long time Firmee and am continually baffled by the defensivenss of the non-exercisers that I encounter. I try not to discuss my healthy lifestyle unless asked, but even then am at the receiving end of some serious attitude. For example, yesterday...
