    Best way to lean out butt and thighs?

    Hi Everyone...I haven't posted in a while, but I wanted to share something that has been working for me. I, too, love spinning. And I got great results from it in my butt/thighs. coming "out of the saddle" (spinning while standing somewhat) really burns and a lot of the fat started melting...

    Anyone a "ya ya?" Anyone buying the new FIRM "Transfirmer" kit?

    RE: Anyone a Christine, The set isn't on the general firmdirect site yet. If you are a member, you can log in to see it. It's a decent deal - You get the "a$$-a-tron" box, and (I think) 6 workouts for about $75 incl shipping.

    yoga booty ballet

    I'm so excited to get my YBBs. I haven't checked my mail (UPS Store) in a few days, so it may be there! I'm so glad you like them. About PHH, if you've ever done a Beachbody workout, they're much like that - no frills, dumb music, etc. But I found the workout very effective. In Arm Toner, my...

    yoga booty ballet

    Tytbody - have you gotten your YBBs yet? I haven't. Some folks on Videofitness have already! I have PHH and I like it. It's a nice "add-on" style workout. I prefer Cathe's Gymstyles though. Joy

    Do you ever feel BIGGER?

    Hi Christine, I was getting bigger too as you read in my post. The training I was doing with Cathes just wasn't working for me right now. I know it works though! But I think with my schedule, I didn't have the time I needed to put in for extra cardio or clean diet or whatever. So I was...

    Anyone a "ya ya?" Anyone buying the new FIRM "Transfirmer" kit?

    RE: Anyone a Yes...I'm a YaYa, and yes, I caved and bought the dumb Transfirmer thing. (I hate that name). But I've heard great things about the workouts, and like you, I neeeed variety. My Cathe's are collecting a little dust right now because I realized I was overtraining and getting too...

    yoga booty ballet

    Hey Tytbody, Its difficult to explain the workout in a sense - its not a choreograoghed routine. They call out dances and you do them for an eight count, you may repeat it for a few eight counts, and then on to something else. The steps are things like "stir the pot" where you roll your hips...

    yoga booty ballet

    Hi There Ladies, I saw your post on YBB, and I had to offer my two cents...I LOVE these workouts!!! I have the Goddess set and I do the basic and advanced workout at least once per week on my "light" or rest days. The funky dance moves are simple, but great. They also include some ballet...

    Thinking about running .

    Tracy, That is exactly how I started running! I was working in Seattle, and I started running just to take in the beautiful scenery (and drop a few pounds). Well, not knowing what I was doing, I lost the pounds, hurt all the time - so I decided to join a clinic to learn the right way to run...

    What are Yummy tasting Protein mixes...

    I drink Lee Labrada's low carb MRPs. Vanilla. They have a thinner consistency than most I've tried, and I can chug it down in a few gulps. One 16oz serving has 42g of protein and only 12 g of carbs. I also find that a little swig of vanilla extract or some fresh fruit helps the taste too. At...

    TransFIRMer???

    So true - actually the FIRM started with just a "box" made of wood, either 14" or 10" tall based on your height. Goodtimes coined the term "fanny lifter". I think the leg press ranks up there as one of the best home exercises of all times! I think the important message here is that Good Times...

    Why I'm Leaving...

    I hate to see people leave, this is a good place - but I understand your feelings. I, too, have been surprised by the content on the board, mainly the bickering that has gone back and forth. But I have just tried to ignore those threads. I would be very saddened if my thread was deleted. I'm...

    Thinking about running .

    Hi Autumn...congrats on your decision to start running. It is a great sport. I wish I had time to do it more. Getting a good fit is tough because we are so individual - but select a specialized (or running) store, as someone stated, that measures your foot (overpronation/underpronation) and...
