Patience grasshopper. lol Just kidding, I'm waiting too. I love standing abs. I feel my abs get worked out better when I'm on the mat, but I don't "wimp" out and take 2 or 3 breaks in the middle of standing abs. I think I have a problem with mat motivation. )-: I taught my son to say, "You can...

I keep checking the site to see if the times are listed. lol

I read or watched something about the importance of getting to and from the floor too. So, ever since I've made sure that I incorporate a mini practice session of sitting and rising into my days. I make sure I don't use my hands to rise from a cross-legged (pretzel style) sit, which is...

I'm going to keep checking back here to see if anybody has suggestions for the wrists, because I generally grasp weights as my modification, which won't work very well for some of these moves. I thought I'd let you know what I do for standing up too quickly though. I have neurally mediated...

Ashaw, if it were me, I'd have my husband walk the dog with me for awhile. If the guy is just friendly, it won't bother him. If the guy is wanting more, hopefully seeing your husband will send a message. I understand your husband might be angry, so I don't know what you'd have to deal with if...

I've been doing some of Cathe's extended stretches after I do a workout, followed by the foam roller move Cathe demonstrates in the trailer video that she posted (I didn't know how to do it before that). Then, throughout the day, I do a couple of standing quad stretches here and there. My knee...

Whoops! See, that's what my brain fog is doing to me. And I'm sure my thinking is soooo much clearer at this time of night or morning or whatever it is, because I can't sleep. Sorry Hazlady and Ashaw. :) I tried melatonin and it worked for awhile, but even after taking a break, it never worked...

Does anybody else check the STS 2.0 description almost daily in the hopes of finding out how long each workout is or to see if they've posted a list of the premixes? Is this normal behavior or am I obsessed? lol

Wow. I thought bleeding for so long that one became anemic was bad, but to end up with tumors caused by the treatment!? That's just scary. I'm sorry that happened to you, and I'm so glad that you're okay now. I was having issues with irritability, but I finally got that under control (well...

Yeah, I hadn't been to a doctor for a couple of decades. Mostly because they can never help me (due to the med allergies). I was desperate, so I went. Boy was it an eye opener. Things have sure changed. It's all about paperwork (not even on paper-it's a tablet) and money. It was a bit dehumanizing.

I really wish I had room for those dip bars.

Ashaw, thanks for posting about natural progesterone cream. My doctor can't give me HRT, because of my drug allergies. I asked her about natural HRT and she just said I'd be allergic to those too. She didn't even mention that anything was available over the counter. I think I'm going to do some...

The dog ate it. I can't drop or lose anything - ever. If I do, I find it chewed up and drooly (not sure if that's a real word) in the dog's bed. He's really naughty. I never thought I'd find myself constantly saying, "What on earth are you chewing on? "What's in your mouth?" or "Open up - let me...

Vivbc, thanks for the quad info. I have an old knee injury that I have to "baby" off and on, but it hasn't been bothering me lately. My "good" knee however has been twinging. Nothing too bad, but I've never had any trouble with it, and I was confused. I spent over 16 hours in a vehicle a couple...

Thanks Jenn, very informative. What a clever design. I'm currently doing physical therapy for my back and my therapist has me using a band with a knot tied in it for some of my exercises. I have to shut the band in the knob side (the side that open) of the door. I've went through 3 bands in less...

Cathe sometimes mentions some of that kind of thing during her workouts, but I have a horrible memory. So, I agree that it would be very helpful to have that kind of info (muscle recruitment, level of difficulty, etc.) easily accessible before putting my DVD in the player. Debinmi's idea of...

Did your pet get a crown too? lol Just kidding. I hope your furry friend is doing well. :)

Wow, that sounds like a project. We live in a 4-season state, so I'd have to heat and cool it. I don't think I could do 2 containers, because I'd need it to not take up too much of the dog's backyard. But if it was just my workout area (my hubby uses different equipment than I do), that might be...

Well, I can't change my son's chair out for anything too different, because he has to have a specific height and style for his disabilities. I'm limited on couch length (any longer & it will block the front door if I don't kick the elliptical out of the living room. Our couch is less than a year...
