    Steady state cardio ideas

    I have got to mix it up a bit. I need some steady-state cardio ideas. The biggest issue is that I can't run and must be at home in my workout room. So far I've come up with adding in some spinning (putting my road bike on the trainer). I like the idea of zumba-like cardio but am not...

    Pulled/strained a muscle in my toosh

    Everything you are doing is what I'm doing so I guess I'm on the right track. I pulled my foam roller out (love/hate relationship) but didn't get to use it last night. I'll use it this afternoon as I stretch that IT band. Man, that thing has given me nothing but trouble off and on for 4 years!

    Pulled/strained a muscle in my toosh

    Has anyone done the same thing? I think it was too many lunges too soon. How long until you were healed and could get back to workouts & did you do anything in particular, like stretching? (I suspect my IT band is involved (not sure how but the trainer will tell me, I'm sure), since I...

    Does Insanity download include the premixes?

    I thought something looked funny when I typed Insanity (thinking that Cathe wouldn't name her workouts the same as some other thing out there). Thanks for the correction. Also, thanks for the verification. I'll order the dvd.

    Does Insanity download include the premixes?

    I thought with other workouts the premixes weren't included but the way the write-up for Insanity reads, it looks like the premixes are included. Please advise before I download. Thank you! Sue

    Even with new update, audio isn't sync'd with video

    Exactly! Thanks for letting me know it's not a goof on my part. I look forward to the fix. Sue <><

    Even with new update, audio isn't sync'd with video

    I'm only working with Step Blast at this point (it's the one that I'm using as my project). I've created two projects: one workout with the blasts and one with only blasts. Both projects start with the audio okay but then somewhere along the way become un-sync'd (not even sure how to type...

    The Firms new workout

    As I look at these workouts, aren't they just incorporating weights within a HIIT workout? Sort of a HIIT Circuit, if you will?

    Step Blast hiccup

    Right, that's what I did. (And I just use the WB to preview it.) I then put the newly created workout on my ipod, still had the same starting point issue but also something new. At about 16 minutes into the new WB workout, it froze, jumped forward, froze...while the audio continued moving...

    Step Blast hiccup

    First, thank you for this fantastic product (WB)! Second, I wasn't sure if this should go in bugs, so I will post here and let you decide. I used Step Blast as my test and removed the blasts to make what I labeled as Step Blast Basic. When I play it in the preview it keeps starting at...

    GAINING weight

    Goodness! I go out of town and find tons of information when I get back! Thanks all for the input but especially thanks Cathe for the links. I'll wade through them as the week goes on.

    GAINING weight

    At the beginning of the March I slowly started back with kettlebells. During that time (while working on form) I was doing Cathe's 4DS and then some of the cardio workouts from Shock Cardio. My diet hasn't changed (and yes, a food journal is how I know). I am struggling with getting my daily...

    Kettlebell users...input please (want a new workout)

    I'm bored with my current workouts. I have both of Laura's workouts and have AOS Clinic. I was thinking about getting an AOS downloadable workout. I like it because it's a tad cheaper than the dvd price (still overpriced but that's jmnsho). I'm considering AOS Providence (NOT vintage) or...

    Art of Strength's Providence dvd

    I watched the preview video but it really didn't give me much information. Is this workout like a Cathe workout...what I mean is it work along? With AOS Clinic, there are two workouts that you are to repeat 3-5 times, which means putting the dvd on A-B repeat. I don't want that sort of thing...

    Art of Strength's Providence dvd

    So glad to know I'm not just being cheap! I found Lauren from the ongoing kb discussions. I have her vol. 1 and am going to buy vol. 2. I was hoping to add AOS Providence, figuring between the three that I'd have enough to keep me from getting bored for awhile. Thanks for chiming in!

    Debate This: Mac v. PC

    I haven't read through very many of the comments so I don't know if anyone has said this. If you buy an apple laptop, be sure to pay the money and get the extended warranty. I never bought it with my desktops but I have learned that laptops take more of beating (mac or pc). One mac repair at...

    Art of Strength's Providence dvd

    What am I missing? $50 for one 50 minute workout! Seriously? I mean, I have kb clinic and forked over the money for that but geez...having hard time swallowing this one. Am I not understanding something? TIA!

    AOS dvds (Kettlebells)

    I have the clinic dvd. I also have Lauren Brookes dvd and LOVE it. I like how Lauren's is a follow along similar to Cathe. The AOS clinic dvd shows you the moves then says to repeat 3-5 times. Are all of the AOS dvds this way? Specifically looking at Providence next (I think). Thanks for...

    Treadmill Recommendations?

    Mary, I guess my post wasn't very helpful. I skimmed so fast that I missed the part about wanting to spend less than $1000. Sorry about that!

    Treadmill Recommendations?

    I had a Sole F80 that I loved. I just recently sold it because I wasn't using it anymore. It has 15% incline (or so the write up on Amazon says). I purchased directly from Sole.
