I didn't see the posts on Cathe's forum. I just read yours here. You expressed your point about your second post very eloquently here. You made some great valid points. None of them came across...

First, I am basing my post on what you wrote here. I am not a member of Cathe's forum and I only visit there when I'm looking for specific information.

I think it costs that much and more to ship UPS or FedEX for a small business. Their prices are ridiculous. I think she lost money on the shipping for the longevity series even though we paid $9. ...

I tend not to contact instructors. I'm not involved in the fitness field at all. I post my opinions here with the hope that somebody (from Tracie's site) is reading. I'm sure she has done research...

I've had bad ones before that barely picked up my HR even with electrode gel and a tight strap. I love my Polar. The only time it zeros out is when the strap is too loose and I'm moving my arms...

I think you have your MHR set wrong. MHR is fixed, is genetically determined and drops slowly as we age, more slowly for fit people. For some people like me, it can be very high (in the 200s); for...

I seriously doubt you only burned 226 cals doing Mindy's workout unless you are really tiny like 85 lbs and just starting out with exercise. This is a 600 to 800 cal workout easily.

It took me a...

Suzy, thank you for the explanation about the title. I know how I'm going to use these. The 2 cardio workouts would make nice warmups for Back up and Staying power. The leg workout would work as...

I got this set. For the price, it is a steal despite the issues with the music and the grainy picture in the wide shots. The chaptering makes no sense whatsoever. It looks like they used some...

Needless to say, I'm buying these. From the description, I don't understand the "Focus" title of this series. Why 2 cardio workouts? Why not add 1 upper body workout? It also looks like we won't...

I have a Schwinn recumbent bike. It is very nice, quiet, and has plenty of resistance settings. That said I wouldn't buy a recumbent again. I think it is better for rehab purposes than regular...

If you meet me at a meeting or a get together, you would think I'm a people person and I'm about as far from it as I can get. Most but not all introverted people make an effort when it is necessary....

Cathe always comes across to me as very introverted. She picked a profession that put her in front of the camera so she had to adjust. The filming of STS was different from her usual. It was done...

Thanks antbuko. I ended up getting Catwalk confidence from Mary before she ran out. It isn't as balance intensive as V core but I'm glad I got it.

Marisa Tomei's is the only workout I am...
