    step/riser/high step compatibility

    I'm getting confused now. :( Are you all saying that ALL the step risers are the same? Or that ONLY the Original Step (longer one) and the High Step are the same (riser dimensions)? I ask because I have the shorter Step (Studio Step). I actually have 2! So, I have 8 risers. I wanted to...

    Are Stability Balls really a must-have??

    RE: Hey Beachgerri, follow-up! Hi Kathy, I am not sure what the rules are about posting "shopping info" here, but if you are interested in getting the flooring, PM me. :) I'll ask them if they will sell to residential buyers (not sure they will or not, as they do commercial/industrial...

    Arrrrgggg! This cricket is driving me CRAZY!!!

    This is so funny! LOL!!! And I can totally relate, because just yesterday we had a cricket inside the house, who went on and on and on for a few hours. But every time I went to search for it, it became quiet. x( He must have finally made his way outside somehow, because I haven't heard him...

    Are Stability Balls really a must-have??

    RE: Hey Beachgerri, follow-up! Clare, I wish I had read that info yesterday. Oh well, too late, as I had already placed my order, and I did get the med ball. I hope I see a benefit from it now. LOL Kathy, where can you find the risers for $12? I already placed my order, but didn't order...

    Are Stability Balls really a must-have??

    Is anyone here 5'5 1/2" or 5'6"? Which size do you prefer in the ball? I saw the chart that said up to 5'6" should use the 55cm. But then I read some posts that said the 65cm was more "comfortable" for a 5'5". Which do you prefer? is it better to go with slightly larger? or smaller? for the...

    Are Stability Balls really a must-have??

    Marla, LOL ok. You're an enabler, alright! lol I love buying fitness equipment too, so I hear ya. But the aerobics floor and the weight station machine takes so much room, that a lot of my larger equipmt now is having to be moved to the storage rooms of the basement (my bench, roman chair, dh's...

    Are Stability Balls really a must-have??

    Are Stability Balls really a Must-Have item? When I first started out with Cathe a few months ago, I swore I was NOT going to buy a "ton of stuff". Well, aside from the ton of videos I keep buying, I also now have gotten 2 pairs of Rykas, a NEW aerobic floor put down, a yoga mat, a few new...

    Sorry to hear your tape broke! I've never had a vhs tape do that. Maybe you can get it repaired, as others have mentioned, AND then transfer it onto a dvd? Do you have a DVD Recorder?

    RE: I grrrrrrrrrrrrr... low-ends. That's IT! I bet that is what really caused these aches! I forgot about those. lol Yes, those bottom "half" squats. OMG. I think she used a 35lb barbell, and I used a 25lb--thinking it would be so easy. lol There is another one she does where she sits on the...

    I "added on" to LL? What was I thinking????

    What a dope! I tried Leaner Legs for the first time, 4 days ago (I just began using Cathe step workouts a month ago, and got so enamored, that I am trying her wt workouts now). I love working out with weights, but can no longer use heavy weights when squatting or lunging, so I opted to go a bit...

    BootCamp

    I'm new to Cathe, so not that well versed, but I'd say Bootcamp is more of a circuit type workout. I just viewed it for the first time last night. You have 8 "cardio segments". I think each was maybe 5 min long? And then, they picked up the weights. Then, went back to another "cardio segment". I...

    Woohoo...new workouts arrived!

    Step Heat!!!! :) I'm new to Cathe too! :) I first ordered Step In Motion. I think this was her first tape? I thought it would be easy, but I'm choreo challenged, and I just didn't seem to like that routine very much. Then, I bought The Classics vol1, and I am HOOKED on Step Heat! I can't...

    Anyone else want start AM Cardio workouts?

    I work from a home office (own business), so I have the luxury of working out whenever. But, I prefer to get my workouts done in the morning (around 7-9am). I do one hour of cardio (Cathe's step) and then 1 hour of weights (2 body parts per day, or I alt "upper body" with "lower body" with a one...

    Cold turkey is the only way for me :(

    Good for you!!!! After about 3 weeks (maybe even after just 2!) on a low glycemic plan (or are you only cutting out "processed sugar"?, your body is going to feel so much better! You'll have a ton more energy. :) (tip: if you balance the amount of protein and low glycemic carbs you have at EACH...

    problem with my balls

    This thread is hilarious!! lol On a serious note here though, do the balls ship ready-to-use? Or do you have to blow them up? (need to know whether or not to order a pump now too).

    Cedie's looking lean!

    This is an interesting question. I had thought that Cedie was a bit bulkier than the others, judging from the videos -- very fit, but just having more muscle mass than the others. But when I saw her photos from the roadtrip, Cedie looked so much thinner. Jai on the other hand always seems...
