It's a lot of fun (and very informative) to read through everyone's responses! thanks! I'm glad that I'm not the only one who has done a 180 on some "not so liked" workouts! :) Now, if only I could change my opinion of Gym Style Legs. LOL *not giving up totally, though!*

I have PLB, but I haven't viewed it yet. Thanks for the info on it. I think it sounds as though Leaner Legs is the one I should try next (I have it in vhs). As for Gym Style Legs again, should I try to just use a LOWER wt, in order to be able to do the fast reps? or would lowering the wt...

Hi there :D 30 min is a lot better than where I was, just a few mos ago, with endurance! haha I've been working out with weights for many years. I can workout with weights for hours, and don't really tire. But, cardio was an entirely different story. I "look" really "fit". Yet, after...

What Leg dvd workout can I use to substitute for the GYM STYLE LEGS w/o, when on a Gym Styles rotation? I'm fine with the other Gym Style workouts--only Legs is a problem. I've been doing: 4 wks: Slow & Heavy 4 wks: Pure Strength 4 wks: Slow & Heavy 4 wks: Pure Strength 4 wks: Slow &...

RE: Cathe: You said there are many ways to train Ooops! sorry. wrong beach girl. lol :) What is Beachbody, btw? is it a fitness board too? or is it for beachwear?

**I answered my own question...please ignore this post** :)

I wish I weren't so black & white about everything. x( I seem to get set in my ways/ideas, and then miss out on a lot! lol I started off Cathe step with her Classics dvd. I first tried Step Heat after running through all 3 w/o very quickly. Right off the bat, I liked Step Heat, due to the...

RE: Cathe: You said there are many ways to train Gosh, lol, I hate that I'm so by-the-book about everything! lol I never even thought to deviate from her instruction. :p I'll give that a try the next time I do S&H! Thanks!

are there any plans for a "Slow & Heavy II Series"? (you made that comment in the "biceps/triceps" segment of S&H, which I did today. :) I believe you were talking about doing slow counts on the negative movement vs the positive. You mentioned how you might incorporate this slow count on the...

I really like the PS series, though I do prefer the slower count from S&H. I've been doing 4wk rotations of PS, and then switching to S&H for 4 wks. So far, so good. (I had tried the Gym Series, but forget what I liked about these other 2 better. I will add the Gym Series back in, at some point...

**bump!** I too have the Windsor's! I haven't even opened them yet, and I've had them over 1 yr and a half. Are they any good?

Thanks Kathryn! So funny you mentioned Cory E. Is she the super super tall blonde? If so, then she's the one who has the really irritating voice, I mentioned. lol I think it's her-- I stashed the dvd away, bec I just couldn't stand working out to it. :/ I'll go over to beachbody and seach...

My doctor never said I couldn't, but she did tell me that when they are "under the muscle" (as mine are), I shouldn't go too heavy. Most female bodybuilders have "over the muscle" implants. The muscle doesn't exert the pressure (squeezing) over the implant, and it looks much better when the pecs...

Hi Kathryn, I don't see a new P90X thread started here, so I'm posting my own thread (hope that's ok). Here is the question I asked you in the Video forum: ___________________________________________________ Interesting thread! I was reading on another board, that the P90X series has...

What are the differences? Why was SM not the preferred one?

Interesting thread! I was reading on another board, that the P90X series has "electric guitar ROCK music". Is this true? I was thinking about trying out the upper body workouts of this series, just to see if I can add on to some of the Cathe S&H upperbody splits, but IF P90X has "rock music"...

oh no! lol I think I was using the wrong lingo here. Instead of "Core", what I realize I meant now *THANKS Kathryn!!!* was "PLANKS". That's what I can't do. Yeah, Cathe has a Plank segment at the end of the S&H "Chest & Back" segment. So, "planks" are the thing where you are on the floor, up on...

How about a NON Cathe "Core 101 for Dummies" type dvd? lol Is there one? Not to switch subjects, but I'd love to find a good "Stretch" dvd. Any recs for that type too? thanks much!

Thanks! Ok, so you think that Core MAx's 1st segment might be easier than the segment from the S&H dvd? Then, I'll get it! :) I think it's going to be a long long time before I'm ready for pikes, though. LOL *taking really tiny baby steps*

*delete message* duh, I figured out which dvd this was on! lol (I must be sleepy! lol)
