Hi Angela,
I try to work opposing muscle groups as much as possible, like
one set of barbell lat rows then pushups then back to lat rows.
In Turbelence training the workouts are usually an upper
body and lower body superset. These do not mention push and pull movements but I still love...
Hi,
Muscle and Fitness Hers Sept/Oct 2006 issue has a good
article about this. It is called Movement Patterns and is
written my Rachel Cosgrove.
I now use this approach to my workouts a lot and really
enjoy working out this way. I can get a lot more
accomplished in less time. It has...
Hi,
In your opinion how is butts and guts different
than legs and glutes? I have legs and glutes and
trying to decide if I should get B&G.
Thanks
:-) :o
Hi Kathryn,
That is what I like about this type of workout also.
I think Cathe's high step workouts are
similar and I find them very challenging. The cardio
sections contribute to the challenge.
The most recent Muscle and Fitness Hers magazine has
3 different 30 minute workouts...
Hi Cathe,
I would like to have a total body strength DVD that
alternates a upper body exercise with a lower body exercise
at a pace and number of reps that heavy weights can be used.
Your workouts are the best, even my boyfriend uses them and
likes your style of training.

Hi,
Does anybody have or have read the book Afterburn
by Alwyn Cosgrove? I am considering it but can't
find any reviews on it. I tried Amazon but it isn't
sold there or reviwed.
thanks
Hi clothesminded,
Thanks for sharing that article.
I have IBS and have had it most of my life and
I know how difficult is is to manage. I am glad to
have Cathe workouts because keeping fit and healthy
does help me a lot.
Hi,
Thanks for the tip, I'll try that. I often take my shoes off for
ball work which seems to help with my balance a little more.
My legs still feel it from doing PLB on Monday but I feel it in
a good way, like it was a through workout and no leg muscle was
left out.

Hi,
I really love Pyramid Lower Body workout.
Sometimes I will put a variation on the exercises like
elevating my heels on the squats and plies and on the
step ups I sometimes use a much higher step 12 to 14 inches
and not use any weight for that one set. My biggest challenge
is the...
Hi Tracey,
I don't know why it is called Good Morning exercise.
It is actually a good exercise that is mostly for the lower back
and I feel it in my lower back,
hamstrings and glutes too. I keep the weight light to avoid injury.
You are right in your visualizing and the bending of...
Hi,
Do any of you do this good morning exercise?
and if so what to you use for adding weight to it?
It is mostly for the lower back. It is done standing
then bend forward at the waist and straighten back up.
I tried this with 16lbs on a barbell on my upper back
but I can't get a...
