I'm always struggling to get my lower body bigger and the past month my focus has shifted to doing total body workouts instaed of splits. Mostly because I skipped leg day in favor of cardio. Did lots of Firm workouts and Push and Pull. Today while on the treadmill I realized...I actually have...

Hi, I was wondering if you could suggest a rotation aimed at decreasing the upper body size and increasing the lower body? I gain weight mostly in my torso and belly and have skinny legs. I have 1. PS series ( which I love )2. CTX 3. S&H 4. PH 5. most of the Blast series 6. Intensity series...

Hi, I went and picked up the P90 DVDs because I wanted something easy for weights. Decided to try to run more and didn't want too much lifting and since I owned P90X ( which really rocks ... but got the chest and back too big )figured why not try this set. The circuit is ok for what I...

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can describe how to do the pullovers with the barbell? Don't have the GS series. I tried to figure it out myself but maybe I was doing something wrong because it was too difficult to get the BB down. Could you also describe the new DEADLIFT that a lot of...

It took ages to get them but they're here!!! I just finished Shoulders and Arms and it was pretty good. I tried the 15 reps this time for variety. The production is good. I liked the music. Liked the Crouching Bicep Curls. Couldn't do half of the Ab Ripper X. Like the audio options of cues and...

I want those Gym Style workouts so bad ! Particulary the Back one!!! I'm not too sure about the Chest one with all those scary push ups but you can't just have one part of a set. You need all 3! Well, I need all 3. I just started a rotation I pulled out of M&F Hers and so far it's pretty good...

Hi, After reading all the posts I could find about it I have finally decided to get it. I have the Slim Series from BB and hated it. Never got into it. Found it dull. But a lot of posts on this board gave P90X such glowing recommendations and they all came from Catheites! Kathryn's posts...

How long are the weight segments individually? In one of Cathe's Rotations ( To lose 20-30 lbs )she said to train 2 body parts for one hour during the second pre-conditioning week. She said we could sub CTX weights for it...will 2 body parts equal an hour?

Hi, Can you give a substitution for the Push ups for the Hardcore Chest workout? Only because I can't do them ( wrist issues )and it looks like there's a lot of them in there. Should I just do regular Bench presses? TIA!

I have seen these on Shape models and fitness mags that don't lean heavily on heavy weight training ( unlike Oxygen )They are tiny back muscles in the upper portion, not the lats. I was wondering if there were specific exercises that could bring these out? Could you recommend a rotation using...

Hi, Don't own this one but it's on a rotation...what would be a good sub for it intensity and in duration? Thanks in advance!

I was looking over the January rotation and need a good sub for this one. I have SJP but it is listed as being in the same week. I have no clue what MIC is like. I have : Body Blast and Time Saver Intensities ( no compilations ) PS Pyramid CTX S&H BMax PMax CMax DVD RS PH

Hi, I was wondering if you can share your fave Yoga workouts and how you manage to fit them into your rotations? I'm not very patient with them and do them only when I can't move anymore. It's quite amazing how well I feel after though! My collection includes: 1. Bryan Kest : Power Yoga...

I did this one today and it totally tried to kill me! It's amazing how good Cathe's workouts are! I keep arguing with her when I don't want to do anymore. My heart rate was definitely up there.

Hi, I would like to request new moves. There have been a lot of tripples around the board in a lot of the workouts and it's not that I don't like them it's just that they're kind of in everything now. Too much of a good thing and they lose their novelty. SJP had some fun step moves. It'll...

Deciding to try out some other workouts and use some of my other DVDs, I picked up the BSS 3 Firms : Complete Body Sculpting ( Krista ) and Total Muscle Shaping ( Stephanie )Both are really surprisingly good workouts! The FIRM is evolving as far as cardio moves. Although why are they so fond of...

Hi, Which Cathe step workouts do not have alot of power/impact moves? I'm looking for something along the same intensity levels as Kelli Roberts Ultimate Step. Doesn't have a lot of turning moves either. Thanks in advance!!!

I was wondering how many points Cathe's workounts are equivalent to? Would SJP = 8 points for someone at 145 lbs.? Would that workout burn 800 calories? How would you rate the Muscle endurance and PH or the Strength workouts? The AP scale doesn't differentiate as to cardio or weights. If I...

hi, I just started the WW Flexpoints program and have a few questions for those who have been on it before. I'm just beginning to realize how bad I am at food choices. For instance, I woke up starving at 5 a.m. and had 2 ham and cheese sandwiches on multi grain bread. When I checked, that was...

Hi, I was wondering if you have any recommendations for some intermediate Step workouts? Just to alternate with my other Cathe's. I really like Kelli Roberts' Ultimate Step but need a couple more. I like this one because the production is good and so is the music. There was very little power...
