    Cycle Max Easy?

    I have been spinning (at least regularly) for six months and I find it much easier than Mindy Mlyrea's spin DVD's: her Tabata spin workout kills me every time. Cycle Max I would rate as an intermediate workout - but I have very strong, muscular legs so that could be the reason. Very fun...

    Excessive water weight gain?

    Hello, Yes, I have done the LIS workouts since I received them in October - no bloating or water weight retention. I rarely eat pre-packaged foods and I don't consume much sodium. Thankfully, I've lost 7 of the 9 lbs I gained last week, changing NOTHING other than staying away from the...

    STS first time!

    Wow, so hard to keep up with all the posts on this thread! I weighed myself this morning and lost another pound, so I've lost 7 of the 9 lbs I gained last week. I changed NOTHING else this week other than doing only cardio, no weights (not even circuit workouts). I also don't consume a lot of...

    STS first time!

    Oh okay, glad to know it's not just me. I understand gaining 2-3 lbs from water, but 9? I'm just grateful I lost 6 of it so far. Haven't really seen any results yet in the inch loss department.

    STS first time!

    Yes, I eat clean, do cardio 5-6 days per week (I add on cardios on the weight training days, and not just steady state, either - I alternative between steady state, tabata, and HiiT), drink plenty of water (more than the recommended 8 glasses per day) and I still gained 9 last week, hence why I...

    Excessive water weight gain?

    Hello all, I'm doing the 3 month STS/LIS rotation and I'm in my active recovery week. Last week was pretty alarming for me, as I gained 9 lbs from the previous week! I was thinking, "how can I gain this much weight so quickly doing all the right things?" I felt very bloated, uncomfortable, and...

    What size stability ball?

    Funny, I too am 5'4" and the 55 inch ball was too small for me: I could not get comfortable or situated on the ball and my legs were not at 90 degrees. I then exchanged it for the 65 inch ball and love it.

    A RT Without Step Is Just Not A Road Trip!

    I concur. Step is a favorite for many of us (myself included), and it just won't be the same without it (the step workouts were a highlight to me at Disney). Thank you.

    I'll be here to answer your questions...

    What's even funnier is that I don't remember getting stuck in chair pose at Disney or the lights going off: did a simple yoga workout cause me to black out? "Black out," get it? :D

    Love (and hate ha ha!) disc work! Question: will the slide and glide discs be provided at the RT or should we bring our own?

    Thank you for sharing your wisdom, Cathe! I will steer clear from diuretics and take the active recovery week. :D
