Start where you are Christine...you know how to workout since you've had experience. Go ahead and find a monthly rotation you like and just get through it. If you have to take breaks, do it, just move forward...you know how it works for your body. Whenever I'm trying to come back I just do as...

I've been running 20-25 miles a week for the past few years and I found doing lighter weight exrsices cut my time significantly. I went from a solid 9 minute mile to more like an 8:20 on a regular basis. I've done 50-60# dead-lifts, 30# FULL squats, 25# lunges, double sets of all. I also added...

I'll only add that along with incredible gains in physical strength and fitness, Cathe and Crew have helped me grow self confidence as well! What more could a girl ask for? Thanks Cathe!

"creamed" or smooth cottage cheese is also a great mayo replacement. I mix it with greek yogurt for a tang. It is fantastic in tuna and in salads like macaroni, potato or egg salad. I do add a little salt though b/c you don't really realize how salty mayo is until you're using a substitute. :)

I'm getting ready to start a new long rotation. I'm trying to decide between the RWH 2 month rotation (which I've done and LOVE) and the Xtrain 90 day Undulating rotation (which I have not done). I have done many Xtrain workouts and love them too, but I haven't done the heavy lifting ones. I...

I'm looking at getting a pull up bar that fits in my doorway and would love some input. Do any of you have one? Which one? There are a lot of varieties out there. Pros/Cons?

I have a Lift like a Girl - symbol only Tee in size Large that I be willing to give to someone. I ordered a Large b/c tshirts are often so small and I like mine loose, but it it pretty true to size; too big for me. TeeSpring, who printed them is sending me another in my size, but they don't...

As a crossover from the favorites thread...this one is another one of my absolute favorites. Not complex, just hard work. Definitely gets the job done.

I mostly smile (and laugh out loud) when it is so hard it feel ridiculous. If I'm really honest, I'm always just so happy to be able to be healthy enough and strong enough to workout, and Cathe is just the person who makes it fun. :) Also, sometimes I think of funny things you ladies say while...

Thanks for this recommendation. I ordered Relax into Stretch. I"m excited about this as my flexibility could use improvement. Also, my balance. Any recommendations in this area. I have a Bosu, but don't use it enough. My core is strong so I feel like there's something missing. I would love...

You are both AMAZING!!! Inspirational on all accounts!!! Thanks for making all of our hard work real-world applicable and FUN!

tanyammr, I'm obviously not Cathe, but my first thought is that maybe your fitbit isn't super accurate. I know they are less accurate than a traditional heart rate monitor. I use a HRM and when I do this workout my heart rate is definitely in the anaerobic range for most of it, and I can...

Justine, Which program are you doing? I am doing the Train to be Awesome program right now, but I'm also doing other w/os. I joined Gold's for the summer (and will go back to home once school starts again) so I've been doing the Les Mills workouts there; bodypump, bodycombat and body attack...
