I am reading Dr. Atkins' Vita-Nutrient Solution and have started adding some supplements beyond a daily multivitamin (primarily, anything he said that was beneficial for those with psoriasis or anxiety/depression). Some people think my supplement regimen is ridiculous when they see my pill box...

I think I may have read too much diet and fitness related material lately, if such a thing is possible! It all started with hearing about the ME (Metabolic Effect) Diet and Workout website, buying the book and reading their blog. Everything they said made so much sense and seemed reasonable when...

At least, I think it's exciting, anyway. I just pre-ordered my iPad from Apple, which is supposedly going to be delivered to me on April 3. I'm relieved that I don't have to drive to an Apple Store and fight the crowd. I have never been an early adopter when it comes to technology, but this...

Believe it or not, I just heard about Barry's Bootcamp yesterday. It sounded interesting and challenging, so I googled it and found this website: barrysbootcamp.net. The 5-Day Academy DVD set is being sold there for $39.99. Is this the same set that everyone was talking about two or three years...

When planning rotations, never schedule Insanity Max Interval Plyo the day after Hardcore Extreme Interval Circuit!! :eek: :o Today I kept wondering why I felt so tired during the warm-up and didn't seem to have the usual stamina through the intervals (especially on push up moves)...then I...

I tried my first "new" Cathe workout today, which happened to be Travel Fit. I had read several posts about the workout so I wasn't expecting much of a cardio workout, but I was still surprised at how...easy this workout was. (I can't believe I just said that!!) Did I feel a burn in my upper...

I decided to get myself a heart rate monitor during the day after Christmas sales :) and I found a particular Timex model at Academy Sports that seems to do everything I was looking for. Besides being a heart rate monitor that has a chest strap and user-changeable batteries, I just wanted a...

I am wondering if anyone knows how to find the regular price of all the Shock Cardio DVDs. Since the pre-sale has ended but the DVDs aren't 100% ready to ship yet, I can't find a page that shows ordering information. I remember seeing the regular price on the pre-order page but now the pre-order...

I bought Insanity from a seller on eBay, new and unopened. It was quite a bit cheaper than ordering directly from BeachBody, plus the seller offered free shipping. I am beginning to wonder if there was a batch of "bad" DVDs from BeachBody that found their way into eBay sellers' hands at a deeply...

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone else here has experienced this...it's a little hard to describe, so I'm having a difficult time getting answers searching online or even talking to multiple doctors. For many months now, maybe even a year, I have had a drastic reduction in flexibility in my hips...

Hi, I am in my second week of Insanity, and having just discovered Cathe's Workout Manager, I decided to enter the rotation in the calendar. Because I didn't realize you could select "other" from the list of DVDs until just now, I already put every workout in as just cardio. Anyway, I know...

Hello! I'm just curious to see if any of you ladies know something about creatine kinase (CK)...specifically how exercise can effect CK levels in your blood. I just got results from a blood test from two days ago, and the nurse asked if I had been exercising, because my CK levels were much...

Hi, I just found out about the Insanity Workout and am interested in getting it. But, I really want to know more about the calendar that comes with the DVD set...I like the idea of having a calendar to follow for the full 60 days, but I'm afraid it might require a workout 7 days a week or...

I am looking for some advice on which workout(s) to buy next. I was very excited about the idea of the 4 Day Split but after watching the video preview I have some concerns that it might not be the right choice for me. Most importantly, I don't want to buy 4 workouts and only end up doing 2 or 3...

Hello everybody! I recently discovered my newest favorite Cathe workout. Surprisingly enough, it's just a very slight modification of Viper, which is on the first Cathe DVD I ever bought, Terminator. Here it is: do the whole workout, but skip the Cardio and Weights segments! I had avoided...

This is extremely frustrating! I've never had any serious injury before, and certainly not from working out. Then, pretty suddenly yesterday (Tuesday), my right shoulder started hurting when I moved my arm in certain ways. I hadn't done any weight workout since doing Power Hour on Saturday. I...

Hi everyone! I have recently been in the habit of spending way too much money on Cathe's workouts. :) Every time I buy one, I say to myself, "This is it, at least for a few months!" Then I buy another one within a couple weeks. Anyway, I just received Supersets/Push Pull a few days...

Hi everyone, This is my first time posting anywhere other than the Video/DVD comments & questions forum. (Thanks again to everyone who told me to buy CTX!) My question is if anyone has any recommendations about nutrition/protein bars. I don't have a lot of time for meal or snack preparation...

Hi all! I'm trying to decide which DVDs to purchase next. After reading all the DVD descriptions on this website, I'm pretty familiar with all of Cathe's workouts but still am having trouble narrowing the choices down. Basically, what I'm looking for is a set of workouts that will fill one...

Hi, everyone! I am a new member who recently discovered Cathe via FitTV. Since FitTV has changed their programming (for the worse, in my opinion), I have finally opened the pocketbook and bought my first Cathe DVD. Obviously, I've never done any of Cathe's workouts without commercial...
