I have a Denise Austin tape, Rock Aerobics, that is ancient. She looks like a kid! I still use it once in a great while when I want 20 minute all aerobics with no choreography.

I have all the TaeBo advanced live tapes and love them (try to do 3 each week). Do you think that the get ripped tapes are different enough to buy when I have the other 12? I went to his website and it looks like you have to buy the whole set (basic, 8-minute, etc) which sounds a lot like the...

I'm afraid I don't know who Christi and Mindy are - do they produce strength tapes? Are they available through Collage or a web site? Thanks!

Cathe, My goal is to have slender, toned thighs, a nonsagging rear and shaped (and bigger) arms/shoulders. To this end I have been doing Pure Strengh CST and BB and MIS each once a week and kickboxing (with squats and floor work) 3 times a week. (I don't need to lose weight and am pretty toned...

C, I altlernate three days of TaeBo with three days of strength training, for a total of six days a week. The "MIS" is Cathe's Maximum Intensity Strength video, which takes an hour and works arms and legs and abs. On a week when I'm doing "MIS" for strength training, if I'm feeling energetic I...

I am 5'8" and 115 lbs and have the same issues you all do. I can tell you what's been working for me: TaeBo 3x per week to decrease body fat (got rid of my cellulite!) and MIS 2 or 3x per week alternating with PS once per week (I have visible muscles!). But ladies, we have to be content (and...

I am joining a health club, and they want me to have a fitness "goal" and now I'm not sure about mine! I am 5'8", 115 lbs, low body fat, eat well and exercise 5 hours per week (3 hours cardio kickboxing, 2 hours strength). I am very comfortable with my "endomorph" body type (it's very toned...

RE: kick-boxing gloves I had wanted to use my 1.5 lb (each hand) gloves with a cardio kickboxing tape (TaeBo) to give me a better upper body workout, but had been scared off by people advising you could injure yourself that way. I assume you all have had no problems?

Just wanted to report that I did the Forza tape - 1/2 hour one day and 1/2 hour two days later (the tape is one hour). It was fun, and seemed to mostly affect my shoulders (which I would like to build up)and back. I wonder if I could use MIS for shoulders and back, then do a Pure Strength for...

Debbie, You can get the tape and swords at www.innovare.com/avfitness or 1-800-293-1864. I also couldn't figure out how to get it from her website. Be warned, the production quality of this tape is probably the worst the world has ever or ever will see. Looks like a 7-year old with a home...

Does this book by any chance delve into why after some of us eat our lower abdomen poochs out? I am not overweight, but 5 minutes after I eat a normal size meal, there's a rounded protruding pooch. It goes away, but I hate it! Could it be a reaction (gas?) to a type of food?

Lorrie, It was on page 13 of the November issue of Fitness. In that article they gave a contact of where to buy the tape and wooden swords, which was www.innovare.com/avfitness or 1-800-293-1864. After I got the tape, I saw the creators had a website, which is www.powerstrike.com. I did...

I just bought a tape called "Forza" (written up in Fitness magazine) which is a fitness workout using samurai sword training features (uses a wooden sword). The creators have several tapes out under the name of Powerstrike. The presenter on this tape is Ilaria Montagnani, who is a black belt in...
