    Baby's Heartbeat for the first time!

    Thanks for the note! The doctor was able to pick up the heartbeat right away, which really surprised me because I had read that it may take a few minutes to find it and not to panic. Hearing the heartbeat has made this all the more "real" for us. I have been able to do MIS, but I'm with you...

    I am having a VERY hard time letting go of continuing a rotation of the CTX series, but feel that I need to due to the interval nature of the workouts and the plyometrics--I know I can modify and I am doing that, but, it's time to try something else. So, I would like to ask: What kinds of...

    James Clapp Book

    Thanks, Shelia for looking into this. I, too, was very surprised that Human Kinetics is not carrying it! It must have just gone out of print recently as I have a friend whose baby just turned a year old in Nov and she had gotten the book in early 1999. Anything you can find out will be...

    Question About CTX Series

    Thanks for the response. I think that I will change my routine to walking on the treadmill and some lower impact routines along with lighter weight works. I am one of those people that if I'm feeling good, I go all out in my workouts so maybe it would just be best for me to take a break from...
