    Hi there! Long time no “see” ;) FINALLY got my MRI done yesterday. Results came back today: mild (20%) scoliosis with moderate central stenosis, three bulging discs, and severe facet arthropathy/hypertrophy. Two of the disc bulges contact exiting L3 and L4 nerve roots — which explains why my...

    Hey y’all! Hanging in there. :D Dr thinks I might have two compressed nerves — one in my lower back and one in my neck. The lower back is getting an MRI as soon as we can schedule it. The neck will have to wait until late April — the first available appt. (BOO) The neck might be related to...

    Good morning! Today is up in the air. I’m pretty sure I have a compressed nerve in my back — my left leg keeps falling asleep. Going to call my Dr and see what’s up. (The same doctor who just told me I have a weak lower back and that’s it… LOL). But my left arm is also weird … I don’t know...

    Leaner Legs, I almost died LOL

    I *recently* (about six months ago) purchased the CTX collection but I’ve only done the All Step workout so far. Is this an official challenge? (Mischievous face) Because I wouldn’t say no to joining a CTX Official Challenge for a week. (Wink) If someone can program a week and post it, we could...

    Lannette — I LOVE Push Pull. One of my all time favorites. Linda — A step on the floor is absolutely, positively, 100% awesome. My reason for wanting to use a riser is just as VO2 Max measurement of improvement. My capacity for cardio tanked for years and years. A riser under my step means...

    Morning! Happy “Bonus Day” of 2020-2024 LOL Meeting with my nutritionist today and I’m slightly smug to be able to report that I’ve lost 5lbs since we last met two weeks ago. I also did my measurements last night. I’ve lost a total of 8.5 inches off my body since the last time I took...

    SO HAPPY TO HEAR!!!! Congratulations! Mine is lower back/hip/tailbone/left lat/oblique pain. Really hard to describe. But it’s tense and tight 24/7/365. If I sit too long, it hurts. If I stand too long, it hurts. If I walk uphill, it hurts. If I do split squats, it hurts. If I don’t lie down...

    Finally got in to see a specialist about my janky hip (that has been bothering me for three years). I’ve been to PT once already — that Dr said it was “weak abs, hip bursitis, and lower back issues”. He was wrong and PT didn’t help. I’ve been doing dead lifts (I max out at about 70lbs for...

    Favourite Warm Ups

    Body Max 2 is my favorite right now! I just spent all last week doing different premixes of that one. Every time I hear the “tha-THUMP” of the opening drum hit on the warmup, I am instantly ready! Great workout. One of my all time favorites.
