    Anyone Successfully Reduce Quad Musculature??

    Tracy Anderson and P57 really helped to slim down my arms and quads. I found Meta Omni to be very effective and no walk in the park at least for me. The only time I have ever had sweat dripping off my nose was while doing Meta Omni.

    Tracy Anderson method VS Tonique method

    Not sure how you would like TA and that is a costly mistake if you don't like them. I did Meta Omni and saw real changes but by the end I had developed a terrible dread. BB&B had the Metas for $25 a while back. I find Tonique exhausting because of their length and finally traded them. There...

    Work smarter, not harder?

    I gave up heavy lifting a few years ago and don't regret it. How about barre work? You could start with Cathes Turbo Barre. I also like Suzanne Bowen 's Amped series, Physique57, Sadie Lincoln's Barre3. They all use light weights and while it may not seem challenging it is. I look good. I...

    How much stretching do you do?

    I love stretching. Stretching and strength...the best. Cathe says this on one of her older workouts and I agree. I like to do an Ellen Barrett workout no matter what rotation I am doing. It always feels so good.

    anyone do tracy anderson's workouts?

    You look great. I know TA works because she really slimmed down my lower body. I had, in my opinion, over developed thighs and biceps . I was not happy with not fitting into jeans and sweaters. I tried TA and put simply it worked. I did not do her cardio or diet. I thought we were past...

    Looking for advice on foam rollers and aids related to muscle soreness

    The Melt Method uses a foam roller and lots of people love it and claim it really helps. I got it from the library, loaned it to a friend and she bought it. It is a book. Check it out on amazon and if you think it might work for you, try your library. I also want to add that if these workouts...

    Physique 57

    I love barre work. Physique57 are really good and tho some find the instructors annoying I don't. I also like Suzanne Bowens Amped Series. She is a great instructor. I hear her streaming workouts are the best but I haven't succumbed to that option yet. Sadie Lincoln's Barre3 seem easier...

    Sleep deprivation and exercise

    Many years ago on this forum I posted a similar situation. I was told by a personal trainer to take a week off and do nothing. I didn't like the advice but I took it. Guilt free. After a week of rest I came back better than before. More endurance. More strength. I had gained from that...

    Favorite sauces

    I don't add any sauce. Maybe Sirachi but that is hot. I generally have a bowl of rice, pasta or quinoa with veggies, beans, chickpeas. There is a new cookbook coming out Mar 31 Sprouted Kitchen Bowl and Spoon that I have been keeping an eye on.

    Have you found any treatments or procedures that help sagging skin on the face?

    I too used to use Skinceuticals but it got too expensive for me. I don't trust what is sold on amazon. I worry about fakes .

    Sleep deprivation and exercise

    No. I sleep. Plus I don't feel guilty. Obviously your body is telling you it needs to sleep. So oblige it.

    anyone do tracy anderson's workouts?

    I have been with Cathe since the days of VHS so it has been while. I have completed STS 2x and I still love and appreciate TA. I found Meta Omni quite challenging. I too think Tracey is an innovator. according to my MD and my SIL who is the Dean of a medical school and a runner bone density...

    21 Day Fix Extreme

    I liked the 21 Day Fix program. I didn't follow the diet except I did use the carb container to measure pasta, rice etc. I lost 7 lbs in 5 weeks and have kept it off. I am doing other things now but I still use the container to keep track of carbs.

    TA method ... No wonder!

    Love TA. She is not selling snake oil! Her workouts are effective. I completed Meta Omni and didn't even do her cardio but walked with Leslie. Lost pounds and inches. I had to build up to the number of reps and found myself on pause and in child's pose a lot in the beginning. I also didn't...
