    Curious about other people's experience/preference regarding shoes for strength training

    Yoga/stretching and sometimes weights - no shoes. Cardio I will wear tenni shoes. I wish I could go barefoot more but I had Plantar Fasciitis and cannot go barefoot anymore. I will either wear slippers or flip flops in the house and only wear those in the house, when I go outside I have...

    Weighted Vest and Strength Workouts

    This may be a crazy question, but am wondering: I wore a 15 pound weighted vest and used 8 and 10 pound dumbbells this morning doing a lower body strength workout. Would this be counted as 15 + 20 (two 10 lb DBs) for 35 pounds total? This is how I was counting it but wandering if I was...

    Question about the Four Heavy Weight Bonuses that were Promised.

    That's right, forgot about these "extra" workouts. When they come out, I am going to have to figure out how to download them since I have never done that before.

    Pelvic bone & Superman's

    From what other instructors say as sometimes it is uncomfortable, you can put down extra cushion or if just lifting legs, you can place your hands under your bone, I have done this a few times. But if using arms then extra cushion is good. some people just have this issue while others don't...

    Unsubscribed from e-newsletter

    I just delete them. I don't want to miss out on anything important but it seems she has gotten more into marketing, even on FB. I may unsubscribe at some point as I have done to other newsletters that seem to not be as informative as they used to be.

    In Praise of Lift Move & Restore

    I need to stick to my guns and stick with Cathe. Just so much out there I want to do it all. But the last couple of weeks I have migrated away from what I have been doing for a couple of months (lower impact/pilates/LMR) and my pants are fitting tighter. I need to stick with it. Can I...

    I Got Stood Up For My Interview!

    ashaw - so sorry to hear about all this. You have gone through a lot. Hoping a job comes your way soon. People just apply for any job they see. Before our hiring freeze came about, I was looking for someone to help me (it was part administrative part finance). I tell you we had 30...

    New Beginning

    Good luck with the interview. Glad the surgery went well and it was benign. Remember do things for yourself and noone else. Be proud of yourself, you have come a long way and positive vibes that the interview turns out well and the next message is saying you got the job.

    Thanks Lannette, I have a pilates reformer class on Fridays and I am doing another program, CoreFirst, so I am actually going to combine and see how that goes. I just need to sit down and put a plan together.

    Month 1 LMR Beginner Rotation

    Your results sound very nice. This makes me want to get back to the workouts. I have still been doing premixes but I think I need to get the full workouts in to see any sort of change. Are you following the LM&R beginner rotation exactly? I like to do a 2 mile walk before hand which...

    LMR Functional Barre

    I enjoyed this workout. I like how it alternates lower/upper/core. I like this better than the total body workout but I am not a compound movement person. Though I do like the total body workout better than most.
