    FINAL HOTEL DETAILS! Yeeeah!

    Thank you so much for an unbelievable job on this. I can't imagine it was exactly easy to secure that many rooms 6 weeks before the event, plus the room rate is so cheap! I called this morning and it was very smooth--took about 2 minutes! Thanks again!:D :D :D

    Burnout?

    Either take a rest or do something completely different from what you ordinarily do. Works for me every time. Good luck!

    Hi Sandra: Not my first time doing Low-Max, but first time on an 8 inch step. I won't make that mistake again!

    Daily Check In: June 3, 2005

    Hi ladies: Today I did S&H bi's/tri's and shoulders. My arms feel like they are hanging limp from the socket. If I had to lift something heavy above my head, I probably couldn't. I really did a number on my knees yesterday by doing Low Max on an 8 inch step. Knees have always been my...

    Are your husbands, etc as active as you are?

    Mine gets up earlier (4 am) than me to run and/or lift weights. Plus sometimes he'll do one in the morning and one after work. He does this 5-6 days per week, plus does a lot around the house and with the kids. We kind of keep each other in line. He is amazing!

    Daily Check In: Thursday, June 2, 2005

    Hello! Yesterday I was not able to work out in the morning as we had house guests and the guest "room" is the basement, which is also where I work out. Of course it didn't happen at night either. Oh well. Today I did Low Max. Cathe said "notice we're using 8" step heights" so I thought...

    Daily check-in 31/05/2005

    Afternoon all: Yesterday I ended up doing the third segment from HC extreme, which alternates intervals from IM3 and KM. I skipped the KM leg drills at the end, which I hate. I just don't see the purpose in them--maybe I'm not doing them correctly. This morning I did S&H Chest/Back/Core...

    Daily Check In: Monday, May 30, 2005

    I slept 'til 8am, gotta love holidays. It will make 4:45 tomorrow seem pretty rough! I originally planned to do something from the Terminator disc today, but it is our first beautiful day in a long time, so may do something else besides hanging out in the basement where my workout area is...

    Daily check-in 29/05/2005

    Probably no one will read this late, but I haven't been on the boards much all week as I've been at an all day class at the U. of Minnesota. I also did not work out for 5 straight days! Absolutely no time. Yesterday I ran 40 minutes. I haven't run in a long time, but I like to when the...

    What's with the Boo Bahs?

    The person who created Teletubbies also created Boobah. It is a woman in her 50's or 60's (saw an interview with her once). My kids (2 and 4) have no interest in either one, but they love the old Scooby Doo from when I was a kid, which they currently show on Boomerang. Susan

    Body Blast Series VS. Intensity Series

    You know you'll end up with both, I personally would probably pick the intensities if you want harder or BB if you want easier, which might be a good combination with the HC series, so you have both ends of the spectrum.

    Anyone had treatment for varicose veins??

    Are you SURE it doesn't hurt;-) Like the other poster said, if it is bad enough, there are risk factors, such as blood clots associated with VV.

    2 job offers - need advice

    Unless you have children you have to worry about, I'd try to do both! You could work your retail job around your gym job and get the benefits of both.

    Daily Check-In - Friday, May 20, 2005

    Hi ladies: No workout for me this morning, which was planned, luckily. I am on call for my job every night and last night I was up from 12-2. (Wendy you were probably up then too). Then I had to be to work early at 7 am. I am fried today because of that. I contemplated working out this...

    Anyone had treatment for varicose veins??

    I've had two differnt procedures done. 13 years ago, I had some veins removed on the top of my lower left leg. I was told at the time that it could get bad again in 10 years and I would need more surgery. It was very brief surgery, and recovery was over the weekend, but I had to wear the...

    Who here owns a good treadmill or treadclimber?

    We bought a TRUE treadmill two years ago. It is cushy, quiet and goes up to a 14% incline. It has a lifetime warranty. I highly recommend that brand.

    Good morning! Today I did the 49 minute timesaver of GS Legs and one of the CTX abs. Going to a baseball game today for a department offsite :D :D Sandra: a Z-pack is the antibiotic Zithromax. They seem to prescribe it for everything these days. You only take it for 5 days. Have a...

    I didn't know that...

    It's not so much what I've learned, as the motivation I've gained and the realization that I'm not the only mom of two little kids working full time and getting up at 5 am to work out because it is the only possible time. There are others hauling their butts out of bed too, so I can stop my...
