    Did the 100!!!!

    I did it several years ago.... ...(the 100 pushups challenge) and will probably never do it again. I proved to myself that I could do it, and why do it again? Anyway, congratulations.....this is no small feat! Checking in briefly & will crawl back in my hole.....bye bye.

    Old Timer check-in

    I'm here, but going back in my hole I couldn't resist -I've been hiding for several years, & will go back into hiding, but resurfaced to say that I still lurk. Hello, I must be going.

    I am afraid I won't be able to do the new workouts

    I said I was politely dropping out of this discussion, so let's drop it, shall we, Miss Clare? "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    Any workouts you wouldn't buy again?

    The ones I would not buy again are MIS, Power Hour, Timesaver and the Slow and Heavy series. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    When was the last time you cleaned out your closet?

    Twice a year, and I give away what doesn't fit or what I don't wear, or what doesn't meet with Stacy and Clinton's rules! I really DO learn from them. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    Are you going to do the new BodyMax on an 8" step?

    RE: Are you going to do the new BodyMax on an 8 I pretty much take the lead from the crew - if they use 8", I do, too. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    Arm Defination?

    I probably do less upper body work than anyone around these forums and am very pleased with the increase in my upper body definition in the last year because I've gone totally to body weight exercises. A mode of training that is not very popular with most women, but it works. "You can't win...

    Stupid weight charts - a rant

    What is the maintenance plan for Cinch? What do you do to keep the weight off? So many plans fail because they don't tell you how to eat after you've lost weight. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    What’s your weakness, Cathe?

    I remember the first time I was introduced to Dr. Pepper - about 1956 in Wichita, KS, along with bright red hot dogs. I mean red with food coloring. Heaven knows how I lived to be my age when we ate food coloring like that while being blissfully ignorant about how it would cause all sorts of...

    Filene's Basement

    I've heard of it - saw something on TV quite a while ago. Here's a link: http://www.filenesbasement.com/master.html "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    What’s your weakness, Cathe?

    Reminds me of the Amish Whoopee pies which are to die for. I need to get up to the Amish bakery up the street (aren't I lucky?!) to get some. Come to think of it, my local grocery chain started to make them, too. It's like having died and gone to heaven, isn't it...

    The Chinup/Yoga Checkin 10-21

    A lot of big, bulky guys who lift huge weights can't do pull-ups or pushups. Bodyweight exercise is very humbling. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    Lowmax after Body Max

    I subscribe to the Freestyle method of training, so I would do them back to back. The leg work is not the same anyway. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    The Chinup/Yoga Checkin 10-21

    Just because someone can lift a lot of weight using barbells and dumbbells, it does not necessarily translate into equal abliltiy with chin-ups, or push-ups for that matter. There's only one way to increase your count on chins, and that's to do them. Increasing your weights with, say, lat...

    I am afraid I won't be able to do the new workouts

    Sorry you feel that way, Clare, but to your post I can reply, "Been there, done that." I HAVE been a victim of depression, very recently in fact, and positive self-talk DOES help, no matter what your state of mind. Everyone CAN control what they say to themselves to a certain extent. I've been...

    Personal and Long: Need Advice

    Here's my thoughts on this, keeping in mind that my SO is almost 78, and is up to no good with flirting not-so-innocently with chicks in their mid-40's: This stuck out for me that you said, "My FIL is here, he has just deposited $3 000.00 into my Girls bank accounts for them to travel abroad...

    What's the best way to deal w/a pig out

    I have a once-a-week planned pig-out and I just get back to normal the next day. No guilt is ever involved. I am just very strict with not cheating throughout the rest of the week, and don't skimp on exercise. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias...

    I am afraid I won't be able to do the new workouts

    No, it was not a lecture and I'm sorry you took it that way. My message was: 1. Don't use age as an excuse 2. What you say to yourself makes a huge difference in what you can and cannot do. The workouts have not even arrived; you have not had a chance to even view them, and you're...

    The Chinup/Yoga Checkin 10-21

    Miz Shelley - I DO understand why you screamed - being able to do a pull-up is a BIG DEAL! Cograts, and keep it up! If you can do a wide grip pull-ups, I'll bet you can do several chins since they are easier. Have you tried those yet? "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe...
