Hello, I am unable to use anything higher than 10 inches because it tends to irritate my knees. Given this fact, am I wasting my time by doing step ups because I can't go as high as 14 inches? I know the step ups do work, but I don't want to waste my efforts. Thanks.

Hi, I am on a Firm rotation now and I have to tell you that it has given me a run for my money. I have been sweating up a storm? I really love getting in a "total body workout" in 1 hour with the cardio thrown in. I do enjoy interval training and it appears my body likes it too. I...

Hello, I was wondering if there is anyone out there who still uses the The Firm? If so, which videos do you still use? I have found that after using Cathe's videos, I am able to lift heavier when I do the Firm videos. I happen to "love" cardo and weights together and the Firm fits into...

Hello All, I am hoping you guys can give me some advice, motivation or something to light a fire under my butt! I finally have gotten exercise into my daily routine. However, I can't seem to get my diet under control. I seem to do well for a few days or a couple of weeks and then I fall...

Hi, I absolutely love Cathe, but I too cannot take the torque and speed. My knees just do not appreciate that kind of impact. I love combining strength and cardio, as well as step aerobics.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone uses other videos in addition to Cathe's videos. I used The Firm's Stong Body this morning and it felt great to mix things up. Because of the all of the great advice that Cathe gives in her videos, I was able to use better form as well as heavier weights...

Hello, This is probably a silly question, but for those of you who are on the weight watchers program, how do you accurately measure pasta to ensure you are not eating too much, but yet are not going to starve because you ate too little? I find it hard to accurately measure because they come...

Thank you to everyone for all of the great advice. I really have to get my butt in gear and address my eating issues. I have to learn how to eat. I never had to worry about what went into my mouth before I hit 30, so this is kinda of new. I did go on weight watchers and lost 11 pounds (I...
