Its working!

I'm still getting the error 404

Me too....

Yeah, I think it definitely could be related to diet and nutrition. I try to cut out sugar and carbs but I end up falling back into bad habits pretty easily. Here is my problem, maybe not a problem just an obstacle. I am a SAHM to 4 kids that I homeschool in a foreign country and I really hate...

Thank you for your replies, I appreciate them all. I am almost 35 years old, I don't know if that age affects much or not. I agree that I would love to get some blood work done and see if there are any physical reasons for the fatigue. I love to do yoga but it is hard for me to consider it an...

Hi all, I've been working out with Cathe for years, 8 years, I think and generally vary from 4-6 days of exercise. About three months ago I (almost) completed STS but strained my shoulder before I could complete the last week of Stage 3. My back was swollen and painful for quite awhile. I iced...

Thank you ladies, I will be traveling to Thailand and I know that some of the places will have equipment and I will bring my shoes and band. I am feeling quite burned out, I looked back over my schedule and it has been a year since I took a week off, I think my body and mind are overworked at...

Hello, I need some advice. I will be traveling over the next 3-4 weeks and will not have access to my weights or workout equipment. I would really like to take this time to regroup and relax without the stress of guilt that comes from NOT working out. I have been avidly working out for over six...

Thank you for the reply! I am just trying to gain strength. I am not looking to lose weight or size, I'm happy with where I am at in that regard just want to be able to lift heavier....be stronger.

Hi All, Do you think 5 days a week of exercise, 3 strength days and 2 cardio days, is enough to make gains? In my perfect world, I would be able to complete 6 days a week but I am just not able to make it happen and usually end up feeling discouraged like I failed some kind of standard, lol. I...

Thank you so much for the replies!

Hi all, I have had Diastasis Recti for almost a decade and never had any problems with pain until the last couple of months. I have been having episodes of pain in my upper abdomen and believe it is time for me to step it up and heal my wound. Can anyone suggest a rotation that would be "safe"...

Thank you all for the replies. I love the look of those yoga toes! I will be getting shoes for indoors and setting up an appointment with a podiatrist as soon as I can leave the country. I had my shoes fitted a few years ago and that was how I got rid of PF and my heel spur, but alas, my feet...

Hello, my feet are killing me! They ache all over :( I have what feels like a bone spur at the base of my big toe and am pretty sure that it is hallux rigidus but without a Dr. I can't be sure and the arches ache in both feet. I have always had problems with my feet because of being pigeon...

Oh my gosh! I woke up this morning to all these replies, thank you so much! What an encouragement. I moved to Sumatra, right on the equator, with my four kids and husband, and while I actually grew up as a kid in Asia and traveling, it is an entirely different animal when you are the responsible...
