While we are still getting to know our new videos, enjoying the end of summer and getting ready for fall, I thought I'd throw out an idea and see if anyone else is interested.
There have been several threads in the last few weeks discussing issues of how our bodies, and therefore how we take care of them, change after 35. These threads have been so informative and reassuring (okay, and sometimes a little scary). It's quite an educated crowd in our Cathe-cyber space that has lots of valuable experiences to relay. These threads also compelled several people to post who hadn't before.
I've been wondering...not that Cathe and SNM don't have enough to do and not that they can be all things to all people...BUT given the interest and the obvious need for a safe place to discuss these issues, would any of you be interested in asking Cathe to start a new forum (similar to the FitMoms Pregnancy Forum) for those of us wanting to post questions and comments about nutrition and exercise after 35 (or thereabouts)?
Cathe and SNM, I don't want to sneak up on you with this question, but if no one else is interested, then I'll know it wasn't a good idea. If others are, you'll know there is interest
.
The open forum is great, but having read through the candid, descriptive and therefore extremely informative pregnancy forum threads, the value of a dedicated forum is apparent, IMHO.
Also, after reading some of the books recommended in the threads, I wish I would have had that information at 35 instead of 44 (better late than never). I would have taken care of myself in different ways.
Anyway, anyone else interested in a dedicated forum for exercisers 35 (or thereabouts) and over? (it seems it would be valuable for the men who post (&lurk
here)? "Just a suggestion, take it or leave it."
Hope you all are enjoying your long weekend. And, by the way, I haven't tried Meaner Legs yet because I keep hearing that the low-end squats are harder than the sit and stands is PSL&A!!! - was Cathe reading the Marquis de Sade before she prepared these videos!
