I posted this topic here by accident. I reposed on Open discussion. Sorry.

Is your PT having you do exercises involoving ankle wts. Where you're lying on your back with ankle wts on, then bending the knee to lift the lower leg up and down. That's the best exercise for your knees. It's a gentle exercise that strenghtens your quads and ligments. And you don't have the...

This thread is getting me excited! I'm ording the Pyramids tomorrow- pay day.:D

Cool! Just what I wanted to hear. :7 Thanks!

Wow Runcrazy! That rotation looks to be a killer, but I don't have the Slow and Heavy series. I suppose I should remedy that. ;) Annabella, Do you mind sharing what this rotation did for you? Do you seem more cut? I'm happy with my lower body, but would like to see more definition to my...

Thank you Annabelle for going thru the trouble linking it for me. You're a sweetheart. :-) I'm going to give this a try, hope I live to tell about it.

I did a search and failed to find it. The rotation was design to make you more "cut" while leaning out. I remember it had PUB/PLB and MIS in it. I didn't have all the workouts then, I think I do now. I'll appreciated if someone can help me out. :D Thanks!

Yeah, I agree, it all depends on what your goals are. If I can match every rep cathe does with the same amt. of wt she uses, I then I hit my goal. I don't want to look like a body builder so you're not going to find me in a gym squatting 165lbs. If I could do that, my dh would probably be...

Oh Wow! It just blows my mind that your even thinking about a new seris at this time. Cathe, you're just not human.;) But, since you are thinking about it, I second the Periodization system. It would be cool to have a whole series focus on periodization, and I know I'll preorder right away...

No not really. I exercise in front of my family (no big deal)and once front of my MIL. She once said " Wow you follow her perfect" and my FIL. He just laughed. I also exercise in front of my children's friends. However, I won't be caught dead doing pelvic tilts/thrusts in front of these...

Hi! You can use flax seed as topping on casseroles, toss salads, and baking goods. You can add to ground beef such as meatloaf, spaghetti, and lasagna. Cooking (heating) won't destroy the oils (omgeg-3s). It's the interacting with oxygen that does that. If you want go to WebMD Health and do...

Hi all! My brother asked me yesterday if it was safe to take creatine. I'm concern because his BP is 190/90 and not certain if creatine can make it worse. He's also close to 300lbs. He's 6'1, large boned, and very muscular, but has excess wt, mostly carries it in the tummy. He recently...

I won't even talk about it with my friends or my dh family. My family on the other hand compliments me all the time and my mom brags about me to anyone who will listen. My inlaws look but don't say much. My FIL did come to me and ask me to help him lose wt. I desighed a program for him and...

What I had to do with PH was use dumbells only for the upperbody. Cathe goes on and on doing bicep curls with the barbell, I could just not handle it. (I'm not ashame to admit that:P ) so I just used dumbells instead. That way I didn't get sloppy with my form.

I discovered Cathe through the old Firm forum around 98/99. It was Cathe this, Cathe that, I finally asked, "Who is this Cathe?" One person reply excitedly telling me all about her. I remember her favorite Cathe at the time was "Circuit Max" and said I should give it a try. Well I did, and...

RE: I'm having a passionate love affair too... Thanks guys for listing your cardio combos. I'll have to give them a try. Although I don't see myself doing Boot Camp cardio right after MIC. :o But maybe I'll surprise myself. Jellybean, who's Jude Law??

I'm no expert, but it might be that you're not eatting enough. ( 1400-1700 cals does sound kinda of low ) I've read where people upped their calories, they start to lose wt. Can't wait to see what the others say. :)

RE: I'm having a passionate love affair too... Thank you everybody for your comments. I'll muster up my courage and try to tackle the cardio part only. I just wanted to hear from the survivors first. This workout is so fun for me, I want to do it all the time. THanks again.

with BootCamp. I love this workout! :D But I have to ask, Has anyone ever did the cardio section only? If so, How was it?
