    Sports Bras

    I have each of the above mentioned moving comfort sports bras. I like them, but for high impact, nothing I have tried comes close to the Enell bra. It is the mother of all sports bras - not pretty, but it does the job! The sizing is tricky, so you may need to try a few on. It does hook in the front.

    STS Dumbbells

    Thank you so much gratefuldog! This helps! FYI, You might like a nice pair of wrist wraps. My fingers give out on heavy dead lifts, rows, lat pull-downs, etc. I have used these for years and love them. I don't have to stop before the working muscle is ready just because of my hands. It...

    STS Dumbbells

    Thank you Jen! This definitely helps give me an idea of what I'd need - I do have some weighted vests that would maybe, combined with dumbbells, make the leg work possible, but I'm thinking I'd need heavier than the 35s I have for the back work. When I did my workouts in a gym, I went with 40...

    Downloads for Dummies

    Hi. Once you download your workouts, go into iTunes. Click on "file". Then click "add to library". In the search, type in the name of the workout. It should show it . Click the workout, there should be a box that says "add" I think. Click that. If you go to "recently added" on left side in...

    Glide & Slide

    I did the LIS LB trisets for the first time last week. I decided to follow it with the slide&glide cardio portion. Oh my!!! My legs were shaking and fried for the rest of the day and the onslaught of DOMS rigamortis that followed the next few days was epic!!! OUCH!!!

    Overtraining???

    Oooooh! I think you will for sure like the rumble roller - it's a chiropractor and massage therapist all in one! I think it might help your tension in your legs too. I actually use mine prior to workouts too - it seems to help prepare my body. I homeschool my kids, so my workout time is...

    Shoulder Pain, Advice Please

    Hi. The resistance is lighter, but you should still fail around that 20th rep. I tend to superset them using medium to heavy bands, and do the scapular retraction on the pull-up bar. I really don't like doing the exercises, but I structure them in so I do them weekly. Now it takes me about 10...

    Shoulder Pain, Advice Please

    Hmmm....It might be an injury to your rotator cuff? I am prone to that. You might see a physical therapist, there are some helpful exercises they can show you to strengthen it and prevent future injury. They are usually done with tubing. I notice my shoulder flare up if I don't stay on them...

    Overtraining???

    Hi tlc93! Hopefully Cathe wilI be able to send you a reply. I sometimes tend to find myself on the verge of overtraining - for me, it's a matter of being stubborn, not backing off when I should. You might google "overtraining syndrome symptoms" and see if you are experiencing many of them...

    Gym Style Split

    I've been eyeballing this split for awhile. Any feedback as far as results, intensity, opinions? The split rotations I have are p90x, p90x2, and asylum 2. Has anyone else done these others and could compare them with the gym styles since they are what I am familiar with? ( I do have Cathe's...

    30 Day Cardio/Strength Rotation!!!

    I am going to do this rotation too (with a few adjustments - to include power yoga and so the workouts fall on the same day each week). I am going to use the new leg workouts, great glutes & leaner legs with it. I have a couple of other rotations on deck before, so it should time perfect to when...
