How do you do a squat thrust climber? I did good in October but now that the Halloween candy is actually in my house and I keep thinking it is better for me to eat the candy then have to deal with my kids on a sugar high I am eating quite a bit. Think I need to punnish myself to stop eating it...
I am glad it does exist somewhere. I don't see it anywhere for sale in Cathe's store. I don't want to buy the whole DVD set right now since my VHS is working well. I guess I will have to start looking out at ebay.
Thanks
I notice some of the rotations Cathe has used in the past call for CTX Upper Body. I have the CTX on tape. It seems like there was a tape made at the same time as Ab Hits that was CTX Upper Body but now I can't find it. Did I dream that up? I don't really want to have to fast forward through all...
Cathe,
I think I finally understand the difference between strength and endurance training and the importance of each. I do have a question though. How often should I go back to the strength training? I have a rotation where I do 4 weeks each of strength, endurance, circuit, yoga. I'm...
Thank you everyone for your help. I neglected my family yesterday and did alot of research with the Cathe search engine on strength and endurance. I think I have it figured out. Strength training builds muscle and includes the more body part type of tapes (Pure Strength, Slow & Heavy, Pyramids...
Thanks for all the suggestions.
I have looked over the rotations. There are just so many! Not sure what to start with! I think I will do cardio one day and strength the next. I have a couple of questions though. When is it that you want to use endurance type of tapes and when do you want to...
Thanks for the help so fast!
Melody - I have almost all of the Cathe workouts. I have all of Firm, FitPrime (WHFN) and the Tracie Long Videos. I have recently started running with my husband. At running we are pretty much beginners. We can run 3 minutes walk 1 and do that about 10 times. When...
Hi all!
I posted this question on Ask Cathe and it was suggested to me to post over here also. So..
I am 36 years old. Had my 3rd child 2 years ago and I am still trying to lose those last 10 pounds which are mostly found around my middle. I am watching what I eat and though I could always...
Hi Cathe!
I am 36 years old. Had my 3rd child 2 years ago and I am still trying to lose those last 10 pounds which are mostly found around my middle. I am watching what I eat and though I could always improve there it is not that terrible. When I read various things on how to lose fat I see...
I don't understand the punching or the kicking. Like how hard do I do it? I also don't understand the snap recoil thing. You mentioned rotating the body, I don't think I really do that at all. I have mostly been trying out the older Kickbox tapes so maybe I'll try kpc. Thanks
I need some help with kickbox. I really do not understand how to do it. I don't understand what it is exactly I am suppose to be having my body do for the different kickbox moves. Can you please help me understand? I don't feel like I get much of a workout by just doing the moves and it appears...
Thanks so much for your reply. I think consistency does play a huge part. Which is hard with a newborn, though now that he is 1 is getting easier. Do you think I should focus on cardio, or strength in one body part at a time or try to fit it all in?
It is very motivating to me that you were...
I havn't been very consistant with my multivitamin. That is a good suggestion thank you. I went to the doctor a few months ago and was in good health. I have really good blood pressure and I am not overweight. I just look like I am pregnant instead of having a baby a year ago. I don't really...
Cathe,
I was wondering if you could offer some ideas. I had my 3rd child 1 year ago. My oldest is 11 and the next is 8 so there was a bit of a wait between the 2nd and 3rd. I am 35 years old. I was pretty sick when I was pregnant and experienced alot of back pains, plus the baby was extremely...
Thanks for the replies. For more info:
It hurts if I use either dumbbells or barbell - doesn't matter.
It only hurts when I am doing lying down chest work. I can do other arm work and it is fine.
It only hurts when I am lifting - no pain outside of workout.
I think it mostly hurts on the...
Cathe,
I am trying this again. I posted my question earlier but it never appeared.
When I do chest work I feel it all in my elbow not chest. My elbow will even really start to hurt. I have tried keeping a loose grip on the weight and lowering my weight but that doesn't seem to help. Any ideas...
Cathe,
Hi!
When I am doing chest work I feel it mostly in my elbows. Sometimes even to the point of pain. I have tried watching my grip, and going lighter on weights. Nothing seems to be helping. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Michele
