Lib, the cheap furniture sliders that you can but 4/$8 (or less) at Walmart work great. I definitely find Afterburn to be one of the most brutal Cathes, cardio-wise! :eek: It's a winner, though. I love/hate the walking/dragging planks. Enjoy the break!!

Today was squats, 192.5# for 3x5 and 1x7. YAY! Then RDLs 200# for 3x10 and walking lunges 2x33.5# for 3x16 steps and RKC planks 3x45 sec. Quick and tough. Squats are by far the most intimidating lift for me, but I'm feeling really good about how they're progressing. High fives all around! Roz

HOORAY, LIB!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!

Hi, friends! First of all, thank you all for your support! I am feeling soooo much better today. :) I think my feeling really off was a combination of factors, not just diet. I had an 'aha' moment this morning when I realized I'd just started a new bedtime supplement from my naturopath to help...

Thanks for the reality check, ladies. Just what I needed to hear.

Thank you :)

Hi everyone, You're all amazing. Great workouts. You all win. :) OK, I'm going to talk about me for a sec... I hit some kind of wall with my cut. All of a sudden I'm constantly craving and hangry. Last night I fell off the wagon into a vat of peanut butter. I also have no energy. Seriously, all...

So down for any of this!!

Cathe, thank you for all the outstanding Live workouts you're sending our way. I absolutely loved this one. Just the right duration and intensity. (I'm always up for some dancey choreography, too!) Pretty sure my two-year-old thinks I'm 'mom-bo' now... I really appreciate the shorter Live...

Justine, I'm totally unsurprised to hear that you maintain at around 3k cals between your lifting, cardio/metcon, and epic walks. On the RP templates, nut butters are counted towards fats and you don't have to double-count towards protein. (Does that help? Or were you saying you needed more nut...

Hi everyone! Justine, excited to hear your thoughts on RP. Of course, if measuring is too stressful, you can always just loosely apply the principles. Sometimes I enjoy a streak of measuring to satisfy my OCD, but probably not year-round. Karen, if you go for it, I'll also be interested to hear...

Hi commando friends! Justine, I'm sending you and your husband all my very best wishes and my condolences. Thinking of you. xx Lib, you're superwoman. That's all I got. Karen, awesome and killer KB work! Tom, I would cry after 15 sets of shoulder work. Hats off! Lisa, great work, as always...

Justine, so sorry I forgot to acknowledge your loss. I spaced, my bad. :oops: Sending you all best. XOXO

Hi everyone! Hope you're all well. Justine, I think you'll enjoy the ebook. Even if you don't want to bother measuring everything, etc., you'll be able to apply the principles if you choose to. It's all good, research-backed info, anyways. Did you get the women's book? (I think it's very similar...

Beachbody creeps me out. Is it multi-level marketing? Their shakes are highway robbery. Optimum nutrition gold standard whey on Amazon, can't beat the price, tastes good, and you can add in whatever you want.

Jamie, the BCAAs give you muscles the amino acids that eating protein would give your muscles, so you're less likely to get catabolic while training fasted. Dawn can expand upon this. I've been loving adding some chocolate whey protein in my coffee if I train first thing in the morning.

Justine, the daily calories fluctuate from day to day and based on food choices, but I'd guess the templates have me on 2,000-2,250 calories/day. They don't give calorie counts, you basically just use whichever foods you want to hit your macros at each meal. I got a TON of info from the Female...

I don't mean to step on any toes (or quads or hamstrings) here, but are you sure that the issue is too much muscle mass in your legs? I tend to carry my weight in my legs, so even when I have very defined abs, I'll still have a little 'fluff' on my legs. If you desire to lean out a bit, as...

Oh yeah, one more thing... I'm still actually kinda enjoying the cutting process. Things are slower now that the first 7 or so lbs have come off, and I'm hungry sometimes, but RP (Renaissance Periodization) is great. A week or so ago, I ended up buying their Auto Templates. I'm glad I did. I...

Justine, you're building amazing and healthy strength with HTS! This morning was overhead press (67.5# for 2x8 and 1x9) then a tri-set of bodybuilding moves (front raise, tri pressdowns, and hammer curls). I sandwiched it between the first/cardio portion of Athletic Training Live (Lisa, GREAT...
