    Anyone Heard Anything About Rhythmic Step, Yet?

    argh! You read my mind by posting this. lol I was wondering WHERE in the heck that Rhythmic Step vhs is, too. Super irritating. And such a shame, as I really have gotten hooked on Cathe's step tapes. It casts such a bad shadow on her, and I don't know how much real imput she has here with...

    Don't Ma'am Me

    ha. this is a funny thread. ;-) Maybe 'cause I usually get called Miss, but I have also gotten the "ma'am", on occasion. It doesn't bother me though. What bothers me is "lady". grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr I hate that. "hey, lady!" yuck! I picture Jerry Lewis, or someone from the Sopranos yelling that...

    CANNOT view Cathe's "CLIPS". Help please?

    I'm not having much luck here lately. First, the Rhythmic Step backorder saga, and now I can't view most of her "clips" on her site. I'm able to view the older ones, through to Rhythmic Step. But from there up (all the newer dvds), I can only hear sound. NO video. I have: pc Win XP Pro Win...

    How do you do the Step "segments"? one after the other?...

    RE: How do you do the Step Thanks to you both! :) Yes, I do have quite a lot of work to do to improve my cardiovascular endurance. I've shirked off the cardio part to as little time on the treadmill or cycling, as possible these past years, and I'm paying the price now. :( I guess I should...

    How do you do the Step "segments"? one after the other?...

    I'm NEW to Cathe, and very choreo-challenged. But I've trained with weights, for years. Thanks to member tips here, I have learned to use the rewind button, a lot when trying to grasp the Step movements, lol, and it's working! I have kept motivated, and really do LOVE doing her step routines...

    When will Rhythmic Step come off backorder?

    Unfortunately, my Rhythmic Step vhs is the "freebie" of the "Buy 4, Get 1 FREE" deal, so it's not worth it for me to now "buy" it from somewhere else. At least since I'm choreo-challenged, and this is her most choreo routine, I'm not pouting too much over the delay. But it is irksome to not be...

    Exercise Time

    I guess I'm a "night person", by everyone else's standards, here. LOL I get up at 7am (that's early for me, too, but I make myself do it). I get showered, dressed, eat a small lite breakfast, and wait a good 30 min before I do any workouts. I always wait at least 30 min after eating before I...

    BEST shoe for high-impact step aerobics?

    My Final Opinion on the 2 models of Ryka shoes: (Enlight II and Rhythm II) (my experience with these shoes may have something to do with just how my particular feet construction is, I guess?), so here is some info, as it might help future shoe seekers. :) my feet: size: 9, but needed...

    Best fitness magazine

    My favorite is M&F, the original. I never read the "Her" version. Even though the original M&F is geared toward body builders, you can still learn a great deal from the sections dealing on "correct form", etc. And there are many excercises included for the beginner or intermediate exerciser...

    When will Rhythmic Step come off backorder?

    Ok. Anyone heard anything yet? LOL Seems as though most of you ordered the DVD. I can kind of understand "running out of DVDs". They're NEWER. But, a vhs tape? How many people actually buy VHS tapes? I thought I was the only one wanting that older format. lol And ONLY because I wanted the...

    BEST shoe for high-impact step aerobics?

    neha If you go to the Ryka.com site, I think they have a retailer search. :) I think some Sports Authorities carry them (not all the stores do). Aerobic shoes, from what I've been told her, fall under the "studio" category. There are 2 models listed in this group: Rhythm II, and the...

    BEST shoe for high-impact step aerobics?

    Thanks for everyone's comments/suggestions/tips on shoes and flooring! :) 1- Question regarding "lateral support". What does that mean? Is this about ankle support? Then, if the Rhythm IIs have a higher top, wouldn't that be more "ankle support"? Or is lateral support something else (arch...

    Favorite Clean Cookbooks?

    I've found that the easiest way to "eat clean" is to not rely on cookbooks. :) I've spent a bundle on many low carb books, and I have yet to find a recipe that is pallatable to me. If you concentrate on each individual food type (protein portion, and then a low glycemic carb portion, and a...

    BEST shoe for high-impact step aerobics?

    So far, after several days, I've almost made it through part 1 of Cathe's Step Heat! lol :) And though I have tried to make the moves less high impact, I can tell that my Adida running shoes, and Nike cross-trainers are just not cutting it. What shoes should I get? I'm stepping in the...

    Step Aerobic experts, I need some help, please! (long)

    Thank you, Clare. I think I will go ahead and order Basic Step then. After viewing/trying that one, I will decide what to do about the other unopened vhs tapes. If need by, maybe there will be some other tapes I can exchange these for. I do like Step Heat though, so I'll keep plodding on with...
