    yes, I just read an Off the Shelf list which recommended Jincy Willet as an author to look out for, and I went immediately to my library to see what they had. And I picked up exactly this book 'Amy Falls Down,' so it's good to have the recommendation seconded! I have already started Curtis...

    Gravity training! Cathe posted on fb!

    Yeah, I'm not seeing it yet either. Still I found some links to trainers demo-ing this in Australia and the equipment does not look cheap. Still, it does total body and also has uses for pilates, apparently, so double duty. Clare

    Peg: well, I promised but I can't deliver! I read some fabulous things in Jan and Feb, then left for a month for the UK and haven't managed much since I got back and there's so much angst going on with my daughter and husband at the mo, that my brain is narrowly focused on that and I can't...

    I have some! You knew I would!! But I haven't slept for a couple of nights and my brain is getting fatigued and fuzzy around the edges, so I'll make a mental note to come back tomorrow and list them and describe them a bit, OK? I'll start compiling the list in my head as I walk about..... Clare

    what stretch band and fire loops to buy?

    Thanks for re-posting that Elsie, I looked but couldn't find that thread!! And I recommend getting a multi pack of varying strengths of both the firewalker loops and long resistance bands for 2 reasons: 1) you can build strength really quickly with these things, so the light one might not be...

    Looking for workouts for different effects for different muscle groups.

    And yet, Nathalie, your comments are somewhat judgemental. Sometimes less is more: saying less is more. You can flog an argument to death, or you can choose to leave people alone. We know that you love muscle on your body: you never miss an opportunity to tell us. Way to go hammering the...

    Looking for workouts for different effects for different muscle groups.

    Lean Legs and Abs and Great Glutes, Xtrain Legs, X Train Cardio Leg Blast, the ICE series, any and all Metabolic Conditioning Workouts, the Low Impact Series, kettlebell workouts. Rather than work with heavy weights, look for workouts that have high reps, an endurance factor, that use weights...

    A Home run!

    And some of us really love ICE for our non-lighter days. Lighter day, heavier day, it's all a question of perspective. Clare

    Peripheral Heart Action Training

    This is the suggestion I can really get behind. The PHAT Live workouts look just fabulous and I wish I had the ability to set up streaming at home. Alas! So, having some of these on DVD would be fantastic. You can get a high volume of work done with PHAT training. Yes please! Clare

    X-Train Legs and Butts & Guts/Differences?

    I really like Xtrain legs. The moves with the gliding discs can be brutal. They change up your average lunge into something else! You go deeper into that lunge and struggle harder to get back up due to instability. You don't need weights or very heavy weights with these for the move to be...

    ICe leg and glute with out ball? suggestion

    First time I did To the Mat was a month ago while visiting my mother in the UK. I had no stability ball, just resistance bands and firewalker bands so I modified those ball moves and still killed the hips, glutes, quads and hamstrings. Here's how ... 1. Stability ball roll ins while lying on...
