    The life expectancy of my step board...

    RS424, Not Cathe here, but you should inspect the tread on your board and the overall stability of the base. Is the tread still in place and not worn out? This is an important aspect of the safety of your step platform. If the tred is worn, you might consider replacing the tread or getting...

    Elliptical under $1000

    Hi, One thing you might consider is a used floor model version of a higher end machine or one that was returned by a customer but could not be resold at full price. Sometimes you can get a really great steal on a product that has been used only as a floor model or returned by a customer and...

    Is there a certain word you can't pronounce?

    LauraMax, This is definitely a fun post! I have a hard time pronouncing "entrepreneur" and "entrepreneurial". Real tongue tiers for me :-) Your friend in fitness, FitGirl-ATX My Blog: http://fitgirlatx.blogspot.com/index.html Picture Trail URL...

    What's your weekend workout (if you're not on the Road Trip)?

    Today I'm planning to do BM2 & Leaner Legs. Tomorrow will be some kettlebell training, Drill Max, and High Step challenge or ME. I'm doing some extra w/o's in honor of the RT (and the barrage of "unclean" food I just inhaled...hormones are out of control....i'm sure you ladies can relate :-) )...

    So, non-Roadtrippers....

    I'm so excited for the ladies attending the road trip this year. I purposefully didn't sign up in the hopes of giving someone new a chance to attend, however, next RT it's every woman (or man) for themselves. I had a great time on the 2005 RT. I'm looking forward to next time and to being able...

    Marilu Henner's Shape up your life - Fittv

    Sarah, You are so funny (and I agree with you wholeheartedly)! I don't care for Marilu's voice either; it annoys me to no end (like nails on a chalkboard). FitTV is one of my favorite channels. I love Cathe, Fit Nation, Diet Doctor, The Gym, and some other shows. I like the athlete...

    How Were You Introduced to Cathe/First Tape or DVD?

    This is a fun thread :-) My office mate's wife introduced me to Collage video and mentioned Cathe to me in 2004. My first Cathe workouts came in May 2005 via FitTV - Power Hour, PUB, C&W, and PLB. After trying those workouts, I immediately made my first set of Cathe purchases in June 2005 - the...

    A Cathe Revelation

    Hi everybody, I've been taking a break from Cathe to pursue other styles of training, and I decided to mix it up earlier this week by adding in a Cathe workout. It's been quite a while since I've done any Cathe (although I do keep up to date with the forums). I picked High Step Challenge...

    What do you like best and least about Cathe workouts?????

    What a GREAT post! I love everything about Cathe - her athleticism, professionalism, and creativity! She is the only instructor on earth who has made step tolerable for me (and I am a former step aerobics instructor myself!!). She pushes us to the limit each time, and I LOVE IT!! Your friend...

    What are your weekend workouts and plans?

    Friday I took off due to pure exhaustion and getting over a cold. Saturday is back in the groove with 2 kettlebell workouts and some cardio. Sunday will also be kettlebell workouts + possibly muscle max and some pull ups. Your friend in fitness, FitGirl-ATX My Blog...

    Pull-up bars

    Hi Sherry Lynn, For whatever it's worth, I also had a door gym. It was very sturdy, but my doorway was a bit short (and I am tall 5'8"), so unfortunately, I was never able to do a full dead hang pull up. I always had to bend my knees. If space is a concern, the door gym could be a viable...

    Which 4-day split workout are you most excited about??

    You know, I really wasn't going to purchase this series and was going to wait out the 3-day split, heavy work, but I couldn't resist the lure of another bootcamp workout from Cathe. I'm not a big fan of step, and the last series was right up my alley (more sports specific, conditioning work)...
