    How to hypnotize a kitten

    Laura, that's so cute! My cat, Francis, loves water. He loves to look in the aquarium from one side, and then lean around the corner to see a different angle. He is always sticking his foot in his water bowl, to see if it's still wet. He also likes to stick his feet in our glasses of water...

    3 things about YOU

    >1. I can raise my eyebrows one at a time in a very fast pace. >No one else I know can do this. >Marie I can do that, too! I also do not know anyone else who can do it. 2. My eyes and hair are exactly the same color as each other (red hair and medium-brown eyes). 3. At 5' 10"...

    Drill Max Ball Wall Question

    Hi Amy, I was just thinking that doing chair pose (from yoga) would be a good substitute for wall squats. I think I'd keep both feet on the floor the whole time, rather than lifting one leg at time. It might be a close enough exercise so that you don't feel like you're skipping anything...

    Drill Max Ball Wall Question

    Woops! When I read your post I thought you said you didn't have a BALL. Sorry! I hope you'll find a good substitute. The section isn't very long, so please don't miss out on the rest of the workout just because of that segment. :)

    Drill Max Ball Wall Question

    Hi Amy, you could just do a wall sit without the ball. Just put your back against the wall and let it support you. P90X includes wall sits with no ball, so I've done them both ways. You'll feel it either way! Tonya

    Anyone else dreading the holidays?

    Well, I'm a recovering Christmas-hater! I worked at Wal-Mart for four years while going to college (both full-time). Christmas season (which starts today!) was exhausting for me. I was always sick from all the germs everywhere and interacting with SO many people, and touching filthy money...

    Anyone try Barry's Bootcamp yet?

    Kathryn, my triceps hurt pretty badly for two days after that one! I am also disappointed in the lack of warm-ups and cool downs. But, I'm enjoying the workouts as a nice change of pace. Based on DOMS, they're working my muscles in a different way from what I've been doing. I'm sure I will...

    Help me stop melting my energy bars!

    If jooge's idea isn't quite enough, could you store them in the freezer? Maybe then they'd stay cold enough until you are ready to eat them. I don't believe I've ever seen anyone suck a wrapper gracefully, so I have no advice there. :) Tonya

    Marie, it just came out in hardcover this month. :( One of my friends tried to get it from the library, but 21 people were already in line waiting for it! I guess it's gotten a lot of good reviews! Tonya

    Book Recommendation: The Thirteenth Tale

    Hey readers, I have read about 1/3 of this book so far and I wish it were Saturday so I could keep reading all day! It's new and is by Diane Setterfield. It is a novel about a young woman who works in an old book shop. She is asked to write the biography of a dying fiction writer who is...

    For those of you using the Sissel-Online Bands...

    Who has purchased the new workouts?

    I preordered way back -- I think it was September 2005! I kept my preorder, hoping that Cathe would heal and figuring that I already spent the money and they would seem free when I got them. I say you should go for it! Tonya

    New workout, where one exerciser will be using a bosu

    Hi Desi, On Tracey Staehle's KB/Sculpt DVD, one person uses the BOSU during the sculpt part, I believe. Check out fitbytracey.com to see if that's what you are thinking of. Tonya

    Lower calories and lower exercise (long)

    Lorrie, Thank you for sharing. I would love to hear what results you have with this strategy! It is so tricky to figure out what will work for each of us. I hope this will be the answer for you! Best of luck, Tonya

    Snap, Crackle, Pop!

    Ouch! Do your hip flexors hurt, or is it just sound? My right elbow has always popped, as long as I can remember. It doesn't hurt at all, but it will pop over and over and over again, dozens of times. At least the sound is on the beat! Tonya
