We have a 3 car garage, but my husband won't clean it! He has it totally trashed out. I don't allow his "hoarding" habits in the house, but I can't seem to get our garage under control. lol

Actually, we've been looking for awhile now. We have owned 3 homes (not all at once), so we're not looking forward to moving. Every time we've moved, we've claimed it was our last time. Because of my son's special needs, we can't have homes with real open floor plans, so older homes work better...

All good ideas, but couch and furniture all sit too close to the floor (Roomba doesn't even fit under it), no wall space, and the one closet in the whole house is upstairs and stuffed with 3 people's clothes. Big house, but not the best design. We already have a decorative trunk that doubles (or...

Sorry you have to wait on your bars, but I'm glad you're getting your crown replaced. I don't have any, but my husband does. One fell out one time and he was really having trouble eating without it.

Hey, Where's Al? How come he doesn't get to foam roll? Poor Al. This looks like a wonderful recovery workout. Now I can learn how to do more than just rolling my back up and down on a roller. My chiropractor has me do that. He also gave me a roller that kills my back! I got Cathe's and now I see...

Snowlover, I can relate. If I do manage to slip in a workout, I end up doing yoga in an effort to loosen up my aching back. Thank goodness for Cathe's premixes and her perfect 30. I think those short yoga sessions are the only thing that's keeping me walking in an upright position. Snow is a LOT...

I can't help with the size on the bars, because I don't have them. No room (shedding a tear:-(, because I don't have the room. So sad. I can tell you, though, that the bar pad is a great investment. I don't use it, because I don't lift heavy enough to worry about it. I got it for my husband. He...

My living room is my workout area, so, yeah, I kind of have to make it work. My bookcases have baskets of bands in them. My weights are tucked under a desk in another room. You don't even want to know what all I have stowed in my poor dog's feeding area, which is also a pantry/laundry room...

Oh, that makes sense. Good, I need all the help I can get. I thought it was to make it more challenging, which I wasn't sure I was up to. I already have a small dog that sometimes climbs on my back while I'm doing planks or pushups. lol Thanks DeeDee!

Aaaah! Not the bars! I just saw them on the site as well as the coupon. I don't have room for them. I've been having to periodically shake myself to keep myself from buying the weight plates with the grips, because I'm out of room. Hmmmm. Maybe I should move to a bigger house? Yeah, that seems...

That's a really good question. I measured my metal ones, as I don't have the Cathe ones. My 10lb weights are apprx. 9" in diameter. So, that would only leave me 4 1/2" (not even figuring the bar width) to slip under. Vinyl weights are usually a bit bigger in order to be able to fill them with...

Oh my! I don't know whether to feel challenged or intimidated by those faces! I can see why there's going to be a strong focus on recovery. lol

Neat! I'm familiar with using the bands for pushups (across back - using weight of hands to hold them down), but I've never thought to loop them around my upper arms. I'm having trouble imagining what muscles that challenges, so I guess I'll have to try it to find out. :)

I think I understand the difference between a rest day and an active recovery day, but what I need to know is this... are both absolutely necessary? As I age, I'm loving active recovery days. A gentle hike (in warm weather), Tai Chi, gentle yoga, long stretch sessions, Classical...

Cathe, I wish you a full and quick recovery. I have very small hands, carpal tunnel, and a bad shoulder. Plus, I'm getting older (although I'm in denial about that:-). Anyways, I found a product that helps me open jars quite easily. It simply breaks the vacuum - making the jar very easy to open...

Not on Facebook, so thanks for letting us know. Those dip bars are tempting, but I'd have to give up my Fit Tower to make room. It took me 2 years to find that Fit Tower, and my husband drove half way across the the country to pick it up for me. It was definitely worth it, so I'm keeping it. I...

I'm guessing they will be. I mean, I'm thinking it might not always be easy to see the TV from some of the positions, so just the ability to push that rewind button the the remote that takes you back to the beginning of a chapter quickly (rather than all the way to the beginning of the workout...

We aren't wimps. We're pain sensitive challenged. lol

I don't know the answer, so hopefully Cathe will see your question and respond. I just wanted to let you know that my chiropractor swears by foam rolling for the back, but when I first tried it, it was very painful for me. He suggested that I modify it by using the roller for my back against the...

Sounds like you've been down this road before! I'm glad you're on the road to recovery. I'm happy for you. :)
