Thank you everybody, all your replies really help. I wish I did have a place to swim, I will try to get a refund for the inserts I did get, and if I get another kind, I want to try the no arch support suggestion, and will use them gradually, not all in like I did before. My instincts have been...

I would love a series of metabolic workouts, with compound exercises and plyo moves. Circuits that really amp up cardio moves followed by compound exercises working every muscle group even allowing for them to be plyo-cized if desired.

Sign me up!!!

Hi, I was recently diagnosed with plantar fasciitis, given inserts which I wore when pounding on my feet which resulted in knee pain. I am reading on a variety of forums this can happen when using inserts. What a mess. Now I can't do squats or put too much pressure on my knees. It is pretty...

Hello everybody, I would like to compile a list of the most effective and favorite compound exercises that I could use for a short metabolic boost and strength workout I could fit into my short lunch break. Please let me know what your favorites are. Thanks in advance.

Jari Love has several workouts that utilize the step. They are challenging, well organized and good.

Ripped with Hiit. Always seem to grab those DVD's.

I'm 67 and still push myself too hard, but am now realizing I need to slow it down more often. We do this for our health, but if it is making us tired and unable to do other things due to lack of energy, it doesn't make sense. It's hard to give up intensity and I fear I will lose my tone etc...

Absolutely great idea, love it! It would be perfect for this. Let's hope.

When I was 17, and even if I am a female, I would have been mortified to discuss sex with my mother. I think this requires very careful thought before any confrontation. I'm with Elsie. He is obviously demonstrating responsibility and may even simply be hopefully prepared. He's a young man. He...

I'm still on this quest, but will add a new twist. How about plyo leg tabatas followed by a variety of upper body and core exercises in a pattern similar to PHA training?

I've not heard of this but find it intriguing enough to second this idea..................

Make it 3!

Liked this for your bottom quote......animals have been my soul enrichment for a long time.

Thanks everybody, that really helps.

I read Cathe's newsletter this morning, and it really sold me on metabolic training. I have a general idea about which of her workouts would be considered that, but is there a list of which ones are definitely considered metabolic? Thanks!

How funny! Just think, there are probably families right now thinking they are about to get a full on sermon, but find themselves transfixed by a group of pumped up women.

Interesting question and one I often have when working out. My question, however, has more to do with compound exercise and its affect on each body part being worked. If one is doing a squat into a shoulder press, does the push from the legs transfer to the shoulder press, making it less effective?

I'm a fan of Mont Tremblant in Quebec. There are other areas near there as well (Grey Rocks). It has been some time since I was there, but it was always a great deal.....European flavor with challenging skiing and great prices.
