My husband will do Cathe's Boot Camp, kickboxing, and weight workouts. I showed him the blog with the Shock Training System and he got really excited. I'm not really crazy about it myself as I've been toning down the weights but I think I'll buy it just because he's so interested. Marina

Maybe I didn't make myself clear. I wasn't comparing Cathe to The Bar Method. For me, after having worked out with Cathe for a year and then trying TBM, I found it too easy. Squeeze, on the other hand is challenging. I have several other workouts along the same vein that are just as difficult...

I agree this was too easy. I rented it first and I'm glad I did. The arm segment was a joke. I would venture to say that anyone who does Cathe workouts regularly would not find this challenging. Marina

Well, I'm just going to be doing the cardio portions. About a month ago, I started doing ballet-type workouts and have gotten quicker and better results than I have with doing weights for an entire year. I'm sure it is due in part to my body just needing a change. Marina

I recently bought this although I haven't been using the workouts it came with. I've been using Callanetics, The Bar Method, and Lotte Berk. Its more comfortable than a chair since the bar height is adjustable. I think these workouts have decreased the bulk all along the front of my thighs and...

I'm in the same boat except that I DID gain the 13lbs back that I had lost over last summer. During winter I started bingeing badly again (I had been in remission, so to speak). I am so frustrated. The weight gain is making my workouts even harder. The only thing I can suggest is not to buy...

FYI, you can find lots of information from IUD users themselves if you google "IUD divas". I was pointed in this direction on another forum. Marina

Candi, Yes, people do have different perspectives on this. Maybe I would feel differently if I actually did have HPV. However, HPV isn't the only virus or disease that causes cervical cancer. The makers of the vaccine even state this. In addition, most women who die from cervical cancer...

To keep things in perspective: From the American Cancer Society website: In 2007, an estimated 11,155 women will be diagnosed with cervical cancer and 3,670 will die from it. Over 170,000 will be diagnosed with breast cancer. From the Dept. of Transportation: In 2005, 39,189 people...

Does anyone know if Stevia interferes with the effectiveness of birth control pills? Being that it sort of falls in the herb category, I'm scared to try it. Marina

Yes, because it is way too easy for me to overeat. Plus, I tend to forget what I eat. I log everything on myfooddiary.com. Marina

I think she's gotten prettier as she's gotten older. I can only hope to look that good when I hit that age. Marina (not a frequent poster but I always notice how attractive she is when I pop in one of her videos)
