    Transformation Challenge 3/17-3/23

    Hi all, Ditto to what Debbie said. Sitting in church this morning was just plain eerie. I kept seeing the scenes of soldiers laying on their stomachs and shooting at people to protect people like me from terrorism. Or, maybe they were just trying to save their own skin. Whatever their...

    Very appropriate topic Fitdoc. I'm sure we all need a way to work off some of the anxiety these scary days. I know exercise is a great stress reliever for me. BTW, I think our sons would have a lot in common. Mine also runs upstairs and plays his drums when he comes home. The piano playing...

    Hi girls, Another quick check in here. Yesterday was PSBBA. Otisan, I put the back of the barbell on a vinyl beanbag during t-bar rows and that kept it from slipping. I'm going to try the towel next time to help me get better range of motion. Today I did the cardio portion of BodyMax...

    Happy Tuesday! Just finished PS CST. Gotta love that tape. Robin, the canoe race sounds fun. That ought to get the blood pumping to those arms. I'm glad there are people like you who can work at animal shelters. I'm afraid I'd end up with a zoo at my house, and it already feels that...

    Ok, all you busy ladies. I'll start this week's post again with a little educational material. Does when you work out determine how many calories you burn? If you're fitness-minded, chances are you've done it before. Come on, admit it: You've probably exercised in the morning thinking...

    Good morning! Just finished LL. Glad to get that one out of the way. Those low end moves kill me. I think if I could bottle that feeling and take a swig whenever I get the urge for sweets it would cure me of that habit. I did manage to stay away from the cookies yesterday. If I can do it...
