I have a 65cm but am 5'2", it always seems to work for me but maybe I don't have it aired up all the way. Wonder if some things would be easier with a smaller ball? Have to maybe add it my holiday list. Traci

Wanted to say big Thank Yous for these great dvds. I've only done LIC but can't wait to do the others. The surprise is wonderful too. It isn't just any company that gives that kind of support and service. A sidenote, I didn't get any freezing but a couple of tiny blips which may have been dust...

Has anyone here used some of the Core Secrets workouts? I've been looking at a couple of them because I love using the stability ball. I'm also interested in suggestions for pilates using the ball. I still love my Cathe workouts though.

Hi, great answers already. I too only use dumbbells and really haven't had any problems substituting. I find I switch from overhand to underhand when doing dead rows to get a good both sides work. I know my weak side would be lazy. Besides, I homeschool and while my son generally stays out of...

Thanks. I like Billy too, he has a good 'presence'. Too bad on his new stuff. Hope he evens out someday. I'm trying to avoid money-wasting stuff. I'd better stick to Cathe :)

Has anyone tried his new BootCamp stuff? I snickered at the title thinking of Cathe's workout. I tried his Taebo stuff years ago but then he was too erratic and unequal on each side.

Add me to the list. Low Max is my definite all-time favorite. I do it at least once if not twice a week. Don't get tired of it at all. I think I may create a bumper sticker though. I can't remember the interval off-hand, but when she says "Do it low again". Brings up a lot of different...

Thank you everyone. That makes a lot of sense. It does go down in just a bit afterward, about the time I can breathe and walk normally. Traci'

Quick question. Sometimes when I'm doing a cardio workout, been stuck on LowMax lately :D my fingers get kinda puffy. I drink water before and during and do try and watch my sodium (had PIH when pregnant so try and keep on top of it). I also sometimes start sweating less towards the end of the...

I breastfed my son till he just over 3 years and worked out during that time. I found that the weight loss really wasn't as easy as most make it out to be. but I did cardio and weightlifting and kept some great muscle shape. Still working on the fat part though :) You can gain muscle, it is the...

Thanks. I too was on a carpet/rug that isn't the plushest. I made sure not to do any of the turns since I didn't want to catch a knee or ankle. I'm getting some new shoes just in case though. They have been through a lot lately :) I think I remember having some foot adjustments with KPC too. Traci'

Did the whole KickMax today. The bottoms of my feets from ball to heel hurt, and hurt during most of the workout. Stretching my feet didn't help. Maybe I have weak foot muscles since I have been focused more on weightlifting than cardio for a bit now. Or maybe something is telling me to get some...

I was thinking about a subject title like this earlier this week. I think they are just too advanced for me. However, I did feel it more (in the no equip one) when I placed my hands behind my head instead of by my side. Thanks for the tips on the ball cross body, slowing down will probably...

Oh my yes, I had to use my other arm to force my triceps to finish the set in those cross body moves. I have rarely hit that point. I love the Gym Style stuff. Someday I will do those push-ups without being on my knees. I guess my chest and triceps were weaker because I could barely move for a...

RE: a different kind of ab question- can c-sections do ... Thank you for that description, I too am short, little over 5' with an emergency c-sect for a very large baby. I suffered nerve damage, you can poke me with a needle all day long in that area and not a thing. Saggy skin filled with fat...

Oh my. this series is great. I'm only just getting started, done High Step and Muscle Max (my 4 yr old picked it out). I love having the resistance band included, really makes for some new stuff. I think it will take me a few workouts to get familiar with quickly getting in place. And I can't...

I just got mine today, can't wait for tomorrow, I'm enough over my 3 injuries to get started. I can't ever just preview, I have to do along. But the first time or two for me are always easy with pauses to make notes on weights and stuff, and of course figure out the latest wicked step moves }(...

I use it for short on time, or to put all the upper body weights together. The best use I found for it was getting back into some kind of workout routine after recovering from injuries. Just enough to get the joints oiled as it were. Traci'

Okay, who else has been reading the descriptions and working on potential rotations :D I want to do them all at first to get a feel for them so it seems like a 2 week minimum to get them all in. Geez, maybe it will be easier once I do them once to get a feel for the moves but I know I want...

Very cool, I've been off for too long due to injuries and started the timesaver to get back into the groove. I can hardly wait for these, I know I will never make that height, amazing. Traci
