Hi Angela, I try to work opposing muscle groups as much as possible, like one set of barbell lat rows then pushups then back to lat rows. In Turbelence training the workouts are usually an upper body and lower body superset. These do not mention push and pull movements but I still love...

Hi, I live in southern Worcester county.

Hi, Muscle and Fitness Hers Sept/Oct 2006 issue has a good article about this. It is called Movement Patterns and is written my Rachel Cosgrove. I now use this approach to my workouts a lot and really enjoy working out this way. I can get a lot more accomplished in less time. It has...

Hi, In your opinion how is butts and guts different than legs and glutes? I have legs and glutes and trying to decide if I should get B&G. Thanks :-) :o

Hi Kathryn, That is what I like about this type of workout also. I think Cathe's high step workouts are similar and I find them very challenging. The cardio sections contribute to the challenge. The most recent Muscle and Fitness Hers magazine has 3 different 30 minute workouts...

Hi Cathe, I would like to have a total body strength DVD that alternates a upper body exercise with a lower body exercise at a pace and number of reps that heavy weights can be used. Your workouts are the best, even my boyfriend uses them and likes your style of training. Cindy

Hi, I have sold a few DVD through Amazon. It was easy too. You should check it out.

Hi, Does anybody have or have read the book Afterburn by Alwyn Cosgrove? I am considering it but can't find any reviews on it. I tried Amazon but it isn't sold there or reviwed. thanks

Hi clothesminded, Thanks for sharing that article. I have IBS and have had it most of my life and I know how difficult is is to manage. I am glad to have Cathe workouts because keeping fit and healthy does help me a lot.

Hi, I rented Core Max from Flickity Fit and WOW!! I will be purchasing this one. Those of you who use it regularly what results have you seen?

Hi, Thanks for the tip, I'll try that. I often take my shoes off for ball work which seems to help with my balance a little more. My legs still feel it from doing PLB on Monday but I feel it in a good way, like it was a through workout and no leg muscle was left out. Cindy

Hi, I really love Pyramid Lower Body workout. Sometimes I will put a variation on the exercises like elevating my heels on the squats and plies and on the step ups I sometimes use a much higher step 12 to 14 inches and not use any weight for that one set. My biggest challenge is the...

PUB gives me the most bicep burn using dumbells but for some reason using a barbell gives me the most DOMS and burn. Cindy

Hi Tracey, I don't know why it is called Good Morning exercise. It is actually a good exercise that is mostly for the lower back and I feel it in my lower back, hamstrings and glutes too. I keep the weight light to avoid injury. You are right in your visualizing and the bending of...

Hi, Do any of you do this good morning exercise? and if so what to you use for adding weight to it? It is mostly for the lower back. It is done standing then bend forward at the waist and straighten back up. I tried this with 16lbs on a barbell on my upper back but I can't get a...

Hi Carrie, I take Alleve for my cramps and I take two at the very start of my period then only 1 at a time after that. Several of my girlfriends have good results with Alleve too. My cramps have decreased as I get older but my periods are lighter too. I did find acupuncture to help...

Hi Jen, Has your doctor given you anything for the spasams? You should ask him for someeting. I asked my GI doctor if there was something to help stop them and I now take hyoscyamine .125 mg. It is a tiny pill that you put under your tongue. It helps me a lot. Spasams are one of my...

Hi, I have IBS and gastritis but I am not a runner. I take two prescription medications for the IBS one for muscle spasams and the other is miralax for constipation. I also take an over the counter Digestive Advantage for IBS and that does seem to make a difference. I take two of...

Monica, I too am so glad for this forum and all the support about keeping healty and fit and doing all the work that it requires. You may want to consider spending less time and having less conversations with those "friends". I find that staying away from negative people is the...

Hi Lauramax, I didn't spend much time viewing all their selections yet but I did see several Cathe and Power 90 workouts. I was glad to see these advanced workouts available for rent rather than beginner or intermediate ones.
