Hey, gang, I am really, really sore! Last night I couldn't peel yams very well because my arms were still killing me from Monday. And this morning I could barely make it downstairs. Today I had cardio planned... I did Cathe's "Step Blast" but lost it during the Challenge. I am so...

Hey, Ruppie, I'm with you on the "red wine as fruit" religion. I get one wine glass full every night. Christine, I agree... keep it simple. But remember: simple goes very well with red wine. :7 Today I woke up with major shin splints. Another reason why I hate running. And really, if...

O, woe is you, Ruppie. An entire bag of soy crispy wisps can NOT be easy on the digestive tract. You might experience some... after affects... later. ;) I'm doing my low carb thing: no sugar, no white flour, lots of good fats and good quality produce and meats/poultry/fish. :9 I feel...

Icklemoley, if you continue to use our check-in to pursue your tiresome vendetta against SNM, I will complain to the moderator. }( And now back to our regularly scheduled check-in. My son had to finish a homework project--in my workout space! So rather than fight it, I went outside...

Dominican, if you are short on cash, don't order it. Sub with your Cathe titles. In my opinion, Cathe works the butt and legs much better than P90X. P90X is great for upper body, abs and core, but forget the lower body. (My opinion only, take it or leave it!) This group is to break your...

I'm glad we're here now... it's easier to keep track! Did Dominican1 make it? I did Chest & Back like I was supposed to. I haven't been working out regularly for over a year, so today was really hard! And Ab Ripper, phew! Thank you, Christine, for nudging me into this. As I told...

And here's a link to Marty Gallagher's take on her gain. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A20126-2004Dec22.html Marty Gallagher: I think this an embellishment - this would be a sensational gain rate for a 240-pound professional athlete - in she were to gain 20-pounds of...

RE: Starting P90X on Monday - anyone want to join a fre... ================================= It won't be TOTALLY on hold, though...right? ================================= No way. I'm gonna sub some of the Hardcore titles for P90X titles. For me, this is more of a get back in business...

By "email group thing" do you mean, just by e-mail? Or joining a Yahoo group or something? If you all can do e-mail, I can do e-mail. Dominican, don't spend any more money! I don't have that classic rotation handy right now, but maybe Christine can tell us what days you do upper body...

RE: Starting P90X on Monday - anyone want to join a fre... Can we do it here? You can call our checkin "The Rut Busters!" Are there checkins at Cathe.com?

RE: Starting P90X on Monday - anyone want to join a fre... How do you feel about a P90X rotation where you have one partner in crime (that would be me) who might trade some of the P90X titles for Cathe titles? I couldn't get into Cardio X or Kenpo or even that Yoga one, and I felt like the...

Me, too, Lori. I saw some pictures on the TV tonight that made me burst out crying. :-( I just want to help. If I were there I would help in whatever way I could: dig through the wreckage, pass out clean water, help people look for their kids, whatever it takes to just help somebody...

RE: Unfortunate I have a problem with this just before my period starts. My doctor said it was because I swell up a bit and doing so puts pressure on the bladder. He recommended a single dose of Sudafed about an hour before I do "jumpy" cardio (during the week before my period), because the...

You know the clear plastic bags they deliver newspapers in? I collect all my packaging peanuts in those things and stick the bags in the closet until I need to wrap something up for shipping. I use them a lot when I sell/trade videos and at Christmas time. Once, when I had a garage sale...

Some thoughts based on my own experience with the same problem: 1) Do you lift as heavy as you can, with good form? I did weight-training for a long time and received some general toning results, but nothing like I did when I started upping the weights. The heavier, the better, with good...

Preordering is always a bit scary, just like buying stocks. :-) When you buy stocks, you do it only when you are confident the company will produce in the way you expect. The best way to come to that decision is to investigate the company before you buy. If you decide that the company...

Dear Groundhog, you can NOT be the huge klutz that I am. It takes me forever to learn ANY choreography. The stuff in CTX took me months! I never did get Rhythmic Step down very well. But with DVDs it's a lot easier. I used that workout blender to learn Step Blast. For example, I...

Doctor/Author is a Vegan... Dr. Greger is a vegan. I respect vegans, but his article holds about as much weight with me as a carnivore's article dissing veganism, and I've read plenty of those (well-researched, too). Find the right proportion of protein/fats/carbs for your body, avoid...

RE: Weird push-up By hooking your legs under a heavy object, you are using your hamstrings to help you "push up", rather than your chest or arms. :)
