    Who isn't going on a RT this year?

    I'm not going, either. Air fare would be $600, and I just couldn't bring myself to pay that much. Have a great day!

    Rave about CoreMax

    Thanks for your post, Nancy. I've been neglecting my core WAY too long and figured CM would help, but I've been "afraid" to use it because my core is definitely not strong. (I think I just identified a vicious cycle here.) Your post has me inspired to stop being silly and just follow along as...

    Muscle Max Leg Work--Whoo!

    I hear you. I secretly avoid MM; not because it's not a great workout, but because I'm scared of the low-end lunges. It hurts just to think about them. Ow! (While I'm confessing, I may as well get something else off my chest -- I usually skip the slow motion lunges in GS Legs. There, now I...

    So bummed. Can't afford RT.

    Wow. I guess I'm not the only one. Thanks for sharing all of your "in the same boat" stories. I'm starting to feel less bummed, actually. Thanks, gals!

    So bummed. Can't afford RT.

    I was so excited about the RT announcement, because I turn 40 in August, and what a great present it would be. But when I added up the expenses of getting there, etc., it came to over $1,000. That's kind of a lot for me. Anyone else out there who can't afford it and can share in my misery...

    Anyone ever order from Athleta?

    Thanks for all of your input, ladies. Looks like I may just order that dress now (and maybe one or two other things!). Have a great night.

    Anyone ever order from Athleta?

    Just wondering if anyone has ever ordered from the Athleta catalogue or on-line, and, if so, what the quality was like. Some of their clothes look cute and comfortable, and I like that their models look fit and athletic. It's a bit pricy for me, but sometimes I think about just ordering one...

    What Do You Do On Days Like Today...

    Just wanted to say that I understand completely. I am very much like you in that I have trouble mustering up the mental energy (and desire) to exercise on days like that. I know many people are good at it, but I'm just not. I usually end up taking it as a day off from exercise and starting...

    Babies after 35?

    I had my first DD a few weeks after I turned 34 and my second DD a few weeks after I turned 36. I have many friends and colleagues who had (or are having) children after 35 (including several who had a child after 40). Good luck to you and your husband.

    Do I need GS Legs?

    GS Legs is my favorite, favorite leg workout. And I find it to be effective, too. If I could only keep one, it would be GS Legs!

    STS male outfits disappointed!

    RE: I'm not.... I would be disappointed if the guys WERE wearing matching outfits or tighter fitting shorts. That would not be a good look, in my humble opinion.

    Perfect Pullup

    Looks interesting, but I'm not sure from the picture how you install that. It looks like it's mounted onto the side of the door frame. Do you have any idea?

    My DH just saw the blog pictures, and . . .

    He said, "Looks like you'll need to spend some money on much heavier weights." And it's so true! More plates, dumbbells, ugh! But for a good cause, of course. Have a great evening, everyone!

    Check out Cedie!!

    Yikes!! Looks like I'm going to have to spend a lot more $$$ on plates and dumbbells. I don't have what they're doing!

    involuntary rest period

    I totally understand. In the winter, even if I manage to stay healthy most of the time, my kids bring various viruses from school. Even if I don't catch it from them, I can't work out because I'm usually up all night with them, and too tired to work out for at least a few days.

    Not really an NY Giant fan, but...
