Kathryn: Not to be rotten or anything, so please don't take offense, but what if she did do a low impact and it wasn't intense or the usual great stuff? I mean, maybe her work outs are great because they are intense. I posted over at VF that if people can give me a list of intense videos...

Thanks CynDaVaz. I felt my own blood rising, too. Yours was a much more measured response than I could have managed. I'm also proud to be an American and I will never forget. May God continue to bless the United States of America.

Hi! A little while ago, maybe a week but I'm becoming like my 2 year old where time seems to be having less meaning so it could have been longer, someone posted to a FAQ about a eating plan/way of life. I don't know which plan it was, Body for Life or what, but I believe the FAQ was written by...

Yes, my husband put up three wall mirrors he got from Home Depot. They do really help with form. Plus, I get an excuse to be vain and stare at myself!!!

Karri: She is petite, so I can't imagine she weighs a lot, but, she is muscular so the actual number would probably be very surprising. Since I've been working out a lot of people have guessed my weight to be a good 10lbs. less than it actually is. It is surprising to me, too, to weigh more...

WOW!! Ladies, you all look gorgeous! You all just keep getting better and better!!

Congratulations on your anniversary! I just got back from Las Vegas. Check out Mandalay Bay if you aren't already staying there. It gets my vote for most beautiful casino and best buffet (but expensive buffet). If you like sushi, there is an all you can eat sushi buffet at the Alladin's mall...

Oh, yeah. My husband says that as long as Cathe includes work on the ball I can get any of her work outs because it is very entertaining to watch me.

Uh oh. Some of my smilies are refusing to smile on that last post.

I hate to admit that this is but one of many Cathe's videos that you may hear me saying "What the *&^%$###%##$$)!!!!! is this woman trying to get me to do!?!?!?!?!" Of course, I've learned to mumble this under my breath since I have 3 small children always underfoot. Have you ever wondered...

I love rotations! I look for ideas for new ones all the time. They keep me focused, rather than committed. I also feel like I have a goal instead of just working out aimlessly. The best rotations force me to do something I wasn't doing before. I've had the most success with the following...

Forgot to mention, I have almost all of Cathe's tapes, and they don't bother my knee a bit. Of course, mileage may vary!!

Hi! I broke my patella (knee cap) 6 years ago. It broke into 5 nice pieces, but fortunately, they did not seperate, so no surgery was required. I wore a brace for 6 weeks and had to walk with crutches. After I was able to take the brace off, I went to a physical therapist for a month, which...

The only problem, Roe, is I would rather Cathe come up with 6 new work outs and her excellantly chaptered DVD's at the end of the summer and pay less attention to the message boards than to have 3 new work outs, maybe not as well chaptered and have her participating more on the boards. I think...

I only get sore at the beginning of something new. For example, at the start of summer I did a S&H rotation. The first week, my legs were killing me! But after that, no matter how hard I push, I don't get sore. A few weeks ago I switched to a circuit/endurance rotation and the same thing...

I just thought that the funny thing is, I clicked on this message because I'm as curious as anyone as to who the background exercisers are:P!

I, too, wondered if she and SNM felt that giving out info stoked the fire of controversy. It did seem with the Intensities that they would get a lot of flak over a lot of decisions, including who the background exercisers are, music, etc. I liken it to when my husband and I were thinking of...

I don't know anyone who works out to videos, but I know a lot of people who work out, so we find common ground when it comes up in conversation. My husband and I both work out at home, but he does not use videos at all. Sometimes we work out together, but either it is doing an activity...

Sharon: I think this exercise was in the last issue of Muscle and Fitness (the men's version). I tried it with my husband for a partner. All I can say is that I was kind of like Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story in that I wasn't exercising (flying in the movie) but falling with style. It is a...

I'm 36 and have been "doing Cathe" for 9-10 years. I found my first tape, Mega Step Blast through Collage. I got my first Collage catalog from the back pages of Shape magazine. I've tried lots of other instructors, but Cathe is the best! Which is probably why I almost always work out with her!
