Thank you Cathe,

I have all these dvds, so I have NO EXCUSE this month. I told myself that If I follow your rotations and ate cleanly, I could lose all of my weight. I truly have no excuses.

Thanks again for your rotations, every month I look forward to them. My prayers for you are for a speedy recovery.

Love ya,

Coakieanos
 
Thank you Cathe! I love your rotations and follow them faithfully. I realized a week or so ago that I had never said "Thank You"!

Take Care!

Ok, I'm new and trying to learn the language. However what is a "steady state run" and "Interval run" ???? Sorry ;-)
 
"Ok, I'm new and trying to learn the language. However what is a "steady state run" and "Interval run?"

Roxie,
1) A steady state run starts out with a warmup of a few minutes - walking and/or running at a slow pace. Then increase your speed to a comfortable but challenging pace that you can hold for the duration of the rest of the workout time.

2) An interval run starts out with a warmup of a few minutes - walking and or/running at a slow pace. Then you can vary the intervals with either fast walking/running or slow running/fast running or even fast walking at an incline/running. An example would be:

a) run at 5.5 mph for two minutes - increase speed and run 6.5 mph for one or two minutes and alternate 10 times.

b) walk at 3.8 mph for two minutes - increase speed and run 6.0 mph for one or two minutes and alternate 10 times.

c) walk at 3.5 mph and an incline of 6 for two minutes - decrease incline to 1 or 0 and run for two minutes at 6.0 mph.

The speeds I used are just examples. You go according to YOUR own fitness level and ability. You can do (a, b, & c) on a treadmill and (a & b) outside. Hope that helps out a little. There are MANY variations on intervals, just find one that you like and challenge yourself. :)

Hey Cathe!

Just wanted to say "Thank You" for this and all your rotations. I ALWAYS use them, but never tell you how much I LOVE having them. We are so lucky to have you as our "personal" trainer. Thanks Again!

Does anyone have any suggestions about what to use in place of the S & H workouts - I have quite a few of the workouts, but not that series....

Thanks!
 
RE: March Rotation: Strong like bull :) Sub for runs?

Any suggestions for a sub for the run segments in this rotation?
