Jane- I am a lot like you whereas I feel when doing cardio, that I should be getting about 45 min- 1 hour on my cardio days. In a week, I usually do 2 days all strength, 2 days all cardio, and one day strength and cardio (CircuitMax is a great one for this). Anyway, I have the CTX series and...

I know, I know, I probably do need everything I have!! Anyway, what I see is probably a lot worse in my head than it really is in reality, but nonetheless, I would like to definitely tone up that area. Like I said, my quads look ten times better than they ever have since I started working out...

Thanks for telling me Nancy. I've wondered for a while how tall she was because I've read on many posts that she is shorter than a lot of the women who work out to her videos, I just didn't how tall she was exactly (or how short exactly, I suppose I should say). Also- Cathe usually looks shorter...

Thanks Gettingfit! I will have to try out my 12" when I get the new Intensity Series and see how that works for me, but it sounds like 12" probably will be enough. And regarding checking out other women, I think all women do that, don't you?? I wonder if men do it nearly as much as we women do...

LAST EDITED ON Jan-10-03 AT 06:03PM (Est)[p]Thanks Kathryn!! I usually don't get too discouraged because I really have seen awesome results since I started exercising with Cathe about 7-8 months ago. And I LOVE the way I feel!! Can't beat that! Wow kathryn :-wow, 150 lbs!! Thats great! Someone...

Nancy- I'm so glad I'm not alone :-)!! Here I thought that I was a pretty tough little cookie, but it turns out I'm really a wimp!! J/K :-). Anyway, the way I look at it is that if I'm feeling the burn and if I'm shaking like a little leaf after doing a legs section (which I usually always am...

What is BodyRX???

((((OMG)))) :o!! All you ladies are awesome! I can't believe how much weight you can all lift! I feel so wimpy. I can't even usually lift as much as Cathe can in MIS. This the only strength tape that I have of hers. For the legs section of MIS, I always keep my weight at 25 lbs for the barbell...

Thanks Kathryn! Actually, I have tried this too. It worked for me for a while, but I think that I have finally turned my step and risers every way that I possibly could. No longer works :-( Oh well....

Thanks for the responses ;-) Well, I do have four extra risers at home which, if used, would make that sucker.....only 12"! Darn, I guess I'll still have to suck it up and go out and get another set to get to 14".....or maybe not. Hmmmm, I am only 5'1, so maybe 12" will work for me, because I...

I read that a few of the videos in The Intensity Series require a 14" step, which I am guessing is the "mini step." I was just curious what all you ladies out there who already have The Intensity Series (I am anxiously awaiting mine :-jumpy) have done to get this 14" step. I thought that I read...

Sue- It sounds like I am currently having the same problem as you are. A few weeks ago, my knee started bothering me when I would work out, usually more so with strength training rather than cardio. I noticed it the most while doing squats and lunges. I then went snowboarding last Sunday and...

I'm just wondering if either of you could tell me where I could find this rotation, or if you could list it here for me. I'm really looking for something new to try, and definitely thinking of ordering the Intensity Series very shortly. Thanks a bunch! ;-)

RE: What is bumping? Thank you for the wonderful response! Very informative. I think that I have to agree that cardio and strength can't be bad to do on the same day. I guess as long as you mix up your routine regularly to keep it fresh, then you are probably just fine. I personally like to do...

What is bumping? Just noticed that everyone keeps using that term. Curious what it means. Also- some people say that doing cardio one day is good, and then doing strength training another day is good, but that doing both of them on the same day is not so good for you. Does anyone know if there...

That is so horrible!! Someone who could do that to you is no friend! A friend is someone who is there for you, and not someone who imposes on your right to make up your own decisions. Maybe she is just jealous of you. Maybe...she is truly NOT happy with BFL like she says, and she is jealous of...

LAST EDITED ON Dec-12-02 AT 07:28PM (Est)[p]LAST EDITED ON Dec-12-02 AT 07:27 PM (Est) and I can get through the whole tape (that is with quite a few pauses and lots of water!), but what I want to know is how the heck Cathe gets through it without even getting winded?? I am guessing they might...
