Hello, Does anyone any manufacturers who make an adjustable bench that can be folded up and put away? I live in an apartment, so space is a problem. I want a bench so that I can effectively do more exercises such as chest and back work. Thanks. Kim

I too cannot understand this carb thing. I basically think it is a way for some people to avoid exercising. I have no idea how people get their energy without carbs. I am ethnic and we too eat rice, white rice at that with almost every meal and folks do not have the weight gain that is...

Hello, Can anyone recommend a video that is similar to Pure Strength? I am currently on a PS rotation and I love working a couple of body parts at a time since I have been doing total body workouts for some time now. I do have S&H, but I don't care for it that much. Entirely to slow for me...

Can anyone advise how much cardio one needs to see the benefit. I really dislike cardio, but absolutely love weight lifting. I can lift weights for an hour or, but the thought of doing cardio for 60 minutes makes me want to run in the other direction. I mostly stick with 30 min. of cardio...

I don't understand how this new twist works the glutes and hamstrings. I am open to all suggestions.

Thanks for the ideas. However, I think I should lay off leg presses as not to damage my knees. I am very afraid of that.

Bump.....I too experience the same thing with the barbell. Would like to hear comments.

Can anyone recommend a substitute exercise for leg presses. My knees just cannot take it. I have even tried on a 12" box, but I think it is time to call it quits for that exercise. Thanks.

How long and how fast should one be running to promote fat loss? I am currently doing intervals of running and walking on my treadmill and want to ensure that I do it safely, but efficiently. Thanks.

Can someone explain how one calculates calories to lose weight. I've done weight watchers in the past, but I am afraid that I will not be eating enough on WW if I should decide to go on program again especially now that I do Cathe's tapes. Now I question how WW arrives at their point ranges...

Thanks for the info. I typically hold a dumbbell on my chest for crunches, but I didn't know what to do for reverse crunches as I do not have a medicine ball. To be honest with you, I really do not want to purchase another piece of equipment. I, too as not looking to develop my abs, just add...

Can anyone advise how the home excerciser can add resistance to abdominal exercises safely and effectively. Thanks!

I don't know what my legs are made of because I was not as sore as I expected to be. I had some soreness in my right hamstring and calf, but not enough to talk about. I am going to do the floor portion and some of the standing leg work again tomorrow.

I am very surprised that I am not too sore today. I thought I would be able to walk! I have some mild soreness in my hamstrings, but that is it. I wonder if it because my legs tend to be pretty strong anyway.

I did L&G for the first times this morning and all I can say is that I hope I can walk tomorrow. I believe this is the tape my lower half has been looking for. Can anyone comment on the results they have gotten from the L&G tape?

I have been thinking about getting the Pyramid video, but am worried that all of the weight changing in the videos will annoy me. However, I have read wonderful reviews regarding these tapes. My goal is to get definition, not to put on size. Can anyone offer any advice and offer insights...

Thank you for the suggestions. I will have to get the Legs and Glutes video. I like to work total body. I have several of Cathe's video's but I have found that I must mix in other videos as well or you find yourself doing the exact same exercises.

Hello, I know many folks here use Cathe exclusively, but I was wondering if anyone can recommend a video that combines weights and cardio and some floorwork. I love being able to do weights and cardio together. I find that my lower half is shaping up nicely because of the floorwork. I...

No I do not do Cathe exclusively. I definitely am unable to do her step workouts as it aggravates my knees. I switch back and forth between Cathe and a few Firm videos. I get bored too easily and I need variety.

Hello, You are not the only one. I bought a yoga tape once and I was bored to death. I thought the instructor as on some type of drug. I love the pilates and yoga moves, but I dislike the videos. They move entirely too slow for my taste.
