Thanks for the responses, Jen Den. I might be able to do a slight squat - it is just hard to get up and down from the floor or a low bench (like the step bench) with the meniscus tear. My favorite Cathe weight workout is a real oldie - Power Hour. I haven't done that one in ages and...

I have just about all of Cathe's DVDs but also have Cathe on Demand but sadly don't know the content and all the best options with these. I am looking for strength training for upper body (emphasis on arms) that just uses dumbbells. Standing preferred. I have a knee issue so can't get up and...

We will be doing a kitchen remodel soon. I have some appliance and cabinet questions: I have the cabinets selected and finalizing the order. We put in the 3" rollout spice cabients both in the base and the wall. Does anyone have these? If so, your thoughts? She said many people use...

That is great news about the premixes! I look forward to more details!

Another one that wants to know about premixes esp with High Reps and STS Total Body. If no premixes than how will High Reps be different than Power Hour where we need to use the chapter button to divide the workout ourselves? I love Power Hour but regretted that this was pre-premix era and I...

DH and I are going tonight to try treadmills out. Really more him trying them out to see what feels good for him to run on. He definitely would prefer to run outside but this would be an option for him when the weather doesn't cooperate or with it being dark by the time he gets home from work...

Amanda - thanks for sharing your workouts! These are great.

Shana - thanks for the info.

Shana - I agree about the side rails on the non-folding Pacemasters. How is the deck made different? I had never heard that. I know the folding is quite a bit heavier than the non-folding ones which seems odd since it also has the aluminum frame and same dimensions when unfolded. The...

Amy - which Pacemaster did you get? Thanks.

Shayne and Laughing Water - Thanks for the input. I think both are good so these comments are helping. This is a big purchase so I want to spend the money wisely.

I have a Precor 5.17 - the bottom of the line Precor but it is great! Here is the TM DRs Best Buy list: http://www.treadmilldoctor.com/Elliptical-Reviews/BestBuyAwards-Elliptical They have reviews by brand too but according to their blog they will be updating the lists and reviews soon. You...

From the other side... I had an open position for 2 months and had trouble finding good candidates to interview. The main requirement was a decent amount of customer service experience. We would have trained on the rest. Great hours with no weekends or holidays but few candidates. We were...

juliem - I know the Landice had an amazing response time so that is one thing I wanted to look at when we go back. Glad you love it. I think if DH likes both he would go with this one because of the cost. shelmmaha - thanks for the comments. I have never heard anyone that has been...

DH and I are looking at buying a treadmill. He is a marathon runner and obviously won't be logging that kind of mileage but probably would do 60-90 minute runs. And for a 160# guy he runs hard and heavy. Right now these are the treadmills we are thinking about. Pacemaster Platinum Pro...
