Thanks Cathe, my doctor wasnt very helpful, just said no-impact.I just dont want to lose the gains I have made.

Do you think you can keep up the strength and toning gains that are made by squats and lunges and cardio with stationary bike and floor work? I dont want to lose everything I have worked hard for?

I am so upset, I have had knee pain since Dec., finally had MRI and was told I have bone marrow edema and osteonecrosis. No weight bearing for at least two months until I see the Dr again. He is not sure what caused this. I dont have access to a pool. Any ideas on how I can keep up cardio and...

I'm with you, I love this tape. I hit all muscle groups in an hour. I would love to see another Power Hour variation tape.

I just know from my own experience, ever since I started doing Power Hour(which I love)LL and MIS are easier. I lift heavier on those tapes than Power Hour, but after PH I was able to increase the weight I was using on the others. The bicep work in MIS always did me in with the crazy eights, but...

RE: journal? I am going to start writing everything down. A lot of experts say to do this also. I just always felt like it would take up to much time. I did go shopping today for all healthy items and had a really clean eating day, (of course I didnt work, and I always eat much better when I...

Wow, thanks for all the good suggestions.I dont want all my hard work exercising going to waste. I will try these ideas next week.

Thanks for the suggestions and your salad sounds good.

I eat ok during the day, fruit and carb for breakfast, pro/carb for lunch, fruit snack at 3:00pm then I always blow the whole day at night. I get up at 4:30am and get my workout in before the kids get up at 6:00, work from 8:00 to 5:30, then its transporting kids (three teenagers) or going to...

I also have the same problem. The front of my legs respond to exercise but the back of my thighs dont. I have been doing Power Hour and MIS. I just added the floor work of Strong Legs and Abs. I would be interested in any suggestions.

Thanks, shoulders presses are tough for me. Maybe I will switch to upright rows for the last few reps.

Why is it important when doing shoulder presses to keep the barbell in front of you instead of overhead? What happens if on the last few reps the barbell is going overhead instead of to the front? Thanks.

Yes, I did go 10lbs heavier with MIS. I didnt even think about that. After Power Hour, MIS seemed easy until the next day. I'm glad I felt it though, then I really feel like I did something positive for me. Do you have S&H series? How would that compare to these two tapes? Thanks for you input.

I have been doing power hour and love that tape. For variety I did MIS. I was so sore for three days. (Legs and glutes only). The next week I did MIS and I didnt feel a thing the next day. Why am I only sore the first time I do the workout and not the following times?

Thanks Cathe, diet is my downfall. I love to exercise, no motivation needed there. Maybe diet is my problem. I have three teenagers who love to eat, and its hard not to join in with them. How often and how long should my cardio be for a week? Thanks for your help.

Hi Cathe and everyone, Cathe, just curious how often and what kind of cardio do you do? I am having trouble with the back of my legs and glutes. The muscle is there, but so is a layer of fat that wont move. I have been doing power hour three times a week and cardio three times, (walking, step...

I gained weight eating vegetarian. I craved protein, and ate lots of cheese, peanut butter and nuts. My sister has done real well, but she does not do any strength training. I know most people can eat beans, rice, etc; to make up for some protein sources, but I have a sensitive stomach and this...

I love this tape. Currently I am doing it three times a week. I feel GREAT when I am done. This totally burns out my muscles after each group. One note, after doing this for three weeks, and then doing Power Max, I really noticed my endurance levels and strength increases in my legs. I would...

Kathy S., could you please e-mail me your rotations also. Thank you. [email protected]

Does anybody else have to go light on these exercises. I find that I have trouble with 8lb dumbells and can only complete the song with five. If I use a barbell I lose my form. Maybe that is just my weak spot, and I will have to work those extra.
