Look for quinoa in the organic or health food section of your grocery store, rather than with the other rices/grains. That's where I found it at my Safeway. Beth L.

I bought my first pair three months ago, and as I always do with workout/running shoes, buy a half-size larger. They fit quite well considering I have a very narrow foot, and I'm wild about the stability they offer. For me, they don't offer much arch support, so for some of the workouts where...

Hi Cathe, I have made a conscious effort to incorporate more strength training than cardio into my rotations this year to gain more lean muscle mass and a more sculpted look. I have been doing workouts such as GS, S&H, PUB/PLB, Muscle Max, etc. Initially I felt muscle soreness; however, lately...

I was feeling pretty smug until the squat thrust "train" hit me. The first time I just started laughing and thought "you gotta be kidding." But I'm thrilled to say I got through the entire workout and gave the TV a "take that!" when I finished drilled 6 and put my sticker on my Cathe calendar...

I'm a huge fan of Muscle Max and Muscle Endurance for exactly the reasons HTH indicates. If you don't have them, you'll want them! Beth

Can't wait to see the new fitness accessory line. I'll feel confident purchasing something that you support. Thanks Cathe!

I've posted this question before but got the impression people just taped their hands for kickboxing. The gloves you're wearing in your calendar cover, Cathe, looked weighted, which is what I'm looking for for kickbox workouts. Are they? and if so, do you know where I can get them? Thanks! Beth

Way to go Lindsey!!! I wish you continued success and health in the new year. Keep us posted on your journey - we're all right there with you!! Beth L.

Thank you so much, and Happy New Year everyone!!!

I'm with you Shelbygirl. I work out at 5 a.m. and couldn't eat even a banana and then immediately work out. I confess on weekends when I have time for my oatmeal and maybe a half hour before I work out, it's great. But it is definitely not practical for me to do during the week - unfortunately...

Thank you so much for the sticker template Cathe!!! I know you could have made them available only by buying them pre-printed from you, but in true Cathe form, you made sure we had the tools to keep us motivated and successful at our fingertips, and I sincerely appreciate it. Beth

Like you ladies, I, too, workout first thing in the morning during the week (5 a.m.), and always on an empty stomach. On the weekends, I generally have a banana and a cup of decaf coffee first, but either way, I am able to keep pace with whatever Cathe throws my way, including the 90-minute...

I got a message back from cathe.com saying the sticker template would be available once the calendar was, so I'm guessing we'll have a link in the next couple of days... Beth

I agree that Low Impact Step is an excellent starter workout. Cardio & Weights is really a ton of fun. My sister had difficulty with the steps initially, too, so she took off all the risers and just used the platform and 5 lb. weights throughout until one day everything just clicked. Embrace the...

Jennifer is right. The topper makes sense, but BM2 is really great. Remind Santa that you were extra good this year...:7 Beth

I agree that form is the key, hence the original question, so I really appreciate the tutorial suggestions. Thanks everyone! Beth L.

I, too, have taken back-to-back pill packs and had no problem - and had my doctor's approval to do so. I am a scuba diver and use dramamine on occasion, but boy, does it make me sleepy! On our last dive trip many of the divers talked about natural/herbal remedies for sea sickness with which they...

BIG fan of the Low Max and Cardio & Weights when I'm looking for something a little lighter. Step blast is also an easier one for me. Beth L.

Thanks for the Kick Max suggestion. I never thought I would enjoy the martial arts workouts but I have to say KPC was a blast, so I'll look into that. Anyboy have any idea where to get the gloves Cathe is wearing in the upclose pic of the 4-day split kickboxing workout? Beth L.

Hi all, I'm enjoying KPC much more than I ever thought I would, but I want my kicks to look like Jai's, and that ain't happening. Does anyone know a good resource for breaking down the kicks so I can figure out how to do them properly? Needless to say I need more flexibility as well, but...
