    Rotation advise:

    Thank you for responding. I don't think I was clear enough about my rotation, though, so my apologies... on Mondays I do CTX Upper Body Split, and I do Power Hour on Fridays. I am not new to weight training, I am an ACE certified trainer, and while I have lots of access to information, I really...

    highly reccomend!

    I have done it twice so far and it is one tough workout, but I love it too! I gave it to someone in my office and when she returned from the gym she said she had a whole new respect for me! ;-) It's tough, but I agree its highly recommended!

    Question about Shrugs (CTX vs PS)

    Hi Cathe, Just got CTX and absolutely love it! My question is regarding the weight used for shrugs. I remember you saying to use a light weight when doing shrugs otherwise you could develop a bulky look, but in CTX it seemed like you suggested a heavier wieght. Can you explain? Just want to make...

    Help...Depressed!

    I am glad you posted. Sometimes just connecting with others can really help, especially when you are feeling lonely. Now that you have insurance, you should really look into seeing a therapist, especially since you don't have anyone to talk to in Arizona. Everyone feels down now and then, but...

    Heart Rate Monitor Recommendations ?

    I have had a Polar Heart Rate Monitor (M51) for about a year and a half. In that time I have had to send it in for servicing twice and also find that it loses its signalsometimes mid-workout, which can be distracting. I am interested in purchases a new one. Does anyone have one that they would...

    Rotations for Great Definition

    RE: :) Thanks So much Marlene I am entering my 5th week of the Tank Top Rotation, but after the first 3 I had to modify it. (I don't have CTX so I was doing Body Max in place of that day) I had to alter the rotation because I seem to be the only one who was bulking up instead of cutting up. I...

    Frustrated

    I think I am an example of having your body get used to alot of cardio. How do you change that? I thought the muscle would increase my metabolism, but it seems like I still need to do the cardio to stay leaner. (?)

    Frustrated

    I have been trying to reply all day, but I've been so busy at work. I'm sorry you all feel the same way, but at the same time it is kind of nice to have so many others to relate too. Some people tend equate a committment to fitness as some sort of fanactic behavior, and I always get comments...

    Bulking up!

    Hi Cathe. I know this is something that comes up all the time, but I am really frustrated and need some help! I know we are all different and need to experiment but I really value your opinion. I did a three week rotation of S&H (I did three days on, one day off) Then I started a variation of...
