    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Wed Sept 19

    Dallys: Well, the role of Marnie (played by "The Birds" Tippi Hedren) was originally supposed to go to Grace Kelly. But Grace Kelly (whom Hitchcock adored) was a Princess by then and the character or Marnie is frigid. This did not bode well with Monaco and the role went to Tippi...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Wed Sept 19

    Hello, all! This a.m. I did Amy's KBX followed by Amy's abs and stretch (I did abs 2 and stretch 1). Lora - I'm impressed that you stick with these Jillian workouts. I don't know if I'd possess that type of willpower. Char - I see your new avatar is of the purple dress. It's beautiful...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Tues Sept 18

    Debbie: The avi is from one of Hitchcock's lesser known films, "I Confess," (which also stars Anne Baxter who played Eve in "All About Eve.") "I Confess" was filmed in Canada (Hitchcock typically filmed in San Francisco) and the ending of "I Confess" was rewritten, which is a shame as it...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Tues Sept 18

    Dallys: Monty was the first choice for Brandon Shaw. Rumor has it that because of the film's homoeroticism. Okay, so Rupert retrieves the cigarette case but doesn't leave, he begins talking, sort of pondering out loud on the murder of David. Brandon doesn't seem to want Rupert to shy...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Tues Sept 18

    Dallys: How far did you get? Did you get to the part where Rupert comes back, pretending to retrieve a forgotten cigarette case? Monty was supposed to be in this movie. I've seen it a bunch of times. Just let me know how far you got and I'll fill you in on the rest!

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Monday Sept 17

    Okay, today I feel like I kind of don't belong on this board. WD did BOSU Blast, 16 min of extra cardio, two ab segments, AND leg work. Well today I just happened to do BOSU Blast too. However, I only did BOSU blast, Tracey's balance premix from Sculpt Sweatfest, and BOSU Blast's abs. I feel...

    Bosu for Cathe's step workout?

    I use the BOSU for all of Cathe's high step cardio segments. I think it's fun, and it definitely has improved my balance and my core. I have never suffered (thankfully) from knee or ankle problems, so I can't comment on that - but since using the BOSU, I haven't experienced any either. Give...

    Need a movie with emotional eating piece?

    Have you ever seen "Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story"? It was a film school project, and it doesn't star people, only Barbie and Ken dolls. It sounds ridiculous, I know, but being a recovering anorexic myself, I felt this movie nailed some of the reasons behind anorexia nervosa and bulimia...

    Maximum Intensity Cardio

    For me, a few Cathe workouts are a wee bit tougher than MIC (for instance, Cardio Fusion or the double cardio premix from Drill Max) - but I LOVE MIC. In my opinion, MIC's step section has the best music Cathe's ever used - Ohio Players, Stevie Wonder, Toni Braxton - I just enjoy the music so...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Sunday 9-16

    This morning I did APX's lower body nrg premix. It was longer than I thought - it included multi-joint and core. I didn't have enough time for cardio afterwards so I did Rainbeau Mars Pure Tranquility. Tomorrow I plan on doing Step Sweatfest or MIC or some other 60 min cardio workout. Lora -...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Saturday Sept 15

    Happy Saturday, maniacs! This morning I did Imax 2 followed by Cardio & Weights' compound & heavy premix. As I wanted an upper body only workout, instead of doing the compound movements, I just omitted the leg work and did the upper body movements a bit slower. For example, instead of doing...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Friday September 14

    Good morning, maniacs! Happy Friday! Today is my rest day. Lora - you're interested in TT, too? I am FASCINATED by this program. Just wish I could afford it right now. Someday... Dallys- Your pictures from yesterday were beautiful DS- I couldn't run .05 miles. Good for you...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Thurs Sept 13

    Wow, great workout, WD! I just LOVE Body Max 2's upper body section! I have Kelly's step kickbox workout, but haven't tried it yet. Perhaps I will next week. Any recs for tasty protein powders that I can mix with the dusty tasting crap I purchased earlier this week? (It's just too...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Thurs Sept 13

    Dallys: "Splurge" is right. My husband is not gonna be happy seeing that on the credit card. And with the Cathe, Amy, and Tracey presales. But what are you going to do? I've spent so much on OTHER things trying to make me feel better about my body (comfort shopping), that if I find...

    Favorite Kickboxing Workouts

    My favorite kickboxing workout of all time is Cathe's Kick, Punch, & Crunch. I also really enjoy Kick Max and Cardio Kicks. Some others to try are Tracey Staehle's Cardio Sweatfest (contains a 60 min kb workout and a 30 min hi/lo workout) and the Powerstrike workouts. If Cathe's intensity...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Thurs Sept 13

    Hi, all! This morning I did Powerstrike 1, then the floor work and abs from Cathe's Pure Strength Legs & Abs. I used an 18# body bar for the leg work and yowza, did I feel it!!! Lora - my friend is lending me a CC so I can see what they're all about. If I like it, I will download some of...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Wed Sept 12

    Hi, all. This morning I did Body Max 2's Cardio and Weights premix (first time I've tried that one) and added on the bonus cardio from BM2 and from LIC. I skipped the abs segement and went right into the stretch, but will do the abs when I get home. Once again, all of your workouts are...

    CTX?

    She usually specifies, like, "CTX All Step, cardio only" so if she says, "CTX Kickbox," I would assume it's the whole thing.

    Hardcore Fitness Maniacs for Sept 11,2007

    Hello, all. Didn't check in yesterday - was super busy. Yesterday I did Kelly Coffey-Meyer's Get Ready, Step, Go! for the first time. I really liked it! After that I did the balance and belly buster premixes from Tracey's Sculpt Sweatfest. This morning I did Cathe's Butts & Guts. Love...
