Sorry to hear of the death. Sending sympathy X Good on you for getting right back in there

I'd say XTrain is a little easier from the cardio perspective. It's probably my favourite series. X10 is a great idea, to tag short cardio sessions on to lifting. I don't pull it out as often as I should.....

Tom, you just keep on impressing. Great work. Lib, I'm not a fan of piyo. I did it for a while (2weeks!). I've given the DVDs to a friend. It's nothing compared to plyo legs!!!!! I like your idea of adding cardio in to STS. I've not done ice, though, so can't help with selection. Thought of...

Karen, I'm out of breath just reading that..... I bet you're leaning out like crazy. Lib, I'd think adding in yoga would be a good idea. Cortisol lowering, and you get to work out all those knots. Great improvement on the back work! Tom, sets of 25 anything is amazing. I finished month 4 of...

Tom, our workouts are synched! It was bench for me today, too. I crapped out though.....5 kg less than 2 weeks ago. Not sure what happened. Your 205 is amazing. You seem to be punching through all your PRs. So pleased for you. Happy spring to all!

I can imagine domestic violence training being intense. Sometimes working out just isn't happening. The DVDs will be there for you tomorrow. Tom great pr on the dead. You keep knocking them down!! Cardio / off for me today- I did IMAX 2 . Lisa, I can cope with the choreography on this one...

Yeah, 6 months of HTS, Lisa! Not quite as bad as it sounds, as it changes a lot every month, so I'm only doing each workout 4x. I'm getting scared about the ramp up in the final furlong, though. And, yes, I'm not drinking because of RP- although I reserve the right to cheat over Easter! RP...

Lisa, I love XTrain legs. Probably in my top 3 of Cathe's. Thanks for the 4ds mention- I hardly ever pull these out, so I did one yesterday. I haven't done flyes in a while, so I'll probably have to remain in a sports bra for a couple of days!!! Tom, that sounds a good workout. Keeping arms...

I'm impressed Tom. I'd have failed at the 'fought to get up' hurdle! I did great glutes today. No idea why, but I just fancied it. I need a 'great upper body' for tomorrow (any ideas Lisa?) I think I may get hamstring doms....

Good yogurt can be expensive- but it's so easy to make. All you need is a spoonful of yogurt (live) to start your batch, then heat your milk (any fat, cows or goats) to blood temp, mix the yogurt in and leave it somewhere warm (a thermos works well). If you want Greek style yogurt, strain the...

Mmmm, may take the plunge. I think there's a one day sale for current RP folks. It's a spreadsheet with drop down options, and it calculates what weight / set and reps to use depending on the rating you give each exercise.eg, if the deadlifts have killed you one week, it adjusts to a lower...

Agree Karen, I love metabolic stuff too. Always my choice for recovery weeks. I just wish I had one sometime soon.... Tom, 3 days work- not fair during semi-retirement! Good work on the back. Lisa, I did the cardio supersets premix with the step at the end. Even I could get the hang of that...

I tend to eat skyr rather than Greek yogurt- it's an Icelandic yogurty/ fromage blanc type product. Yummy and not quite as sour as yogurt.

How are the post-plyo legs lib? A hot tub is just the ticket. Tom, I had a chest day too- but I'm not comparing (mine's about half yours!!) and you did more reps, so I'll keep quiet! I agree about a spotter. I feel I might dare to do more if I had someone ready to help out. Yesterday was...

Just realised I wrote cod eating..... Meant ocd eating. But both apply!

RP has changed how I eat quite a bit. I now eat a heck of a lot of carbs on 'moderate' workouts days. Moderate in RP terms means 90 minutes of heavy weights. Cardio, metabolic, hiit all count as rest days!!!! Any lifting less than 90 mins is considered light. Took a bit of humble pie eating to...

Yes, glad sarge is back and not awol. And killing those bells by the sound of it. Going through Cathe live sounds like fun. Aren't there almost 100 so far? Tom, you sound like you pushed through today. Good on ya for doing something. Lib, more amazing news- getting paid more for doing less. I...

Great news, Tom. Another one bites the dust. I didn't know, though, that we had the same water supply as Missouri! All my planets were aligned today, and the HTS workout felt almost easy. Upped every single weight (paused squats, speed deadlifts, presses, pull ups...) Anyway, I'm the heaviest...

Oh yes, please!
