RE: Patricia, I live in Saskatchewan and I have seen (the very odd time) some Rykas in the stores but they never ever had my size. I have found a store in Lethbridge, Alberta, that can get me what I want when I want it and he mails me whatever model I order from him. If you are ever in need...

RE: Hey Debbie That is why my biceps feel so cooked today. I used 30#'s for the biceps when I did it on Sunday. :) Kim

RE: The above being said I did Power Hour yesterday after doing S&H for quite some time and I can feel all sorts of muscles today. It is a very fun and thorough workout and I think you get from it what you put in (or on your barbell as the case may be :)) Kim

RE: Go Heavy Honeybunch There is a long track with squats at the beginning. Then, there is plie squats I believe. After that, it is on to other muscle groups for a bit and then back to lunges. There is also some deadlifts to do as well. Personally, I can do the squats with 60# and I would...

RE: If you find Pure Strength slow than you will find Slow and Heavy even slower because it is. The exercises on S/H are divided using the push/pull series and is very effective, as is PS, and I really like them both. However, Slow and Heavy takes a fair bit of concentration so if you find...

I forgot to write down my workouts this week but know that I did the following: Each of the Slow and Heavy workouts once during the week, two run/walks (I think on Tuesday and Thursday) and Rhythmic Step on Saturday. Today will be Power Hour and if I my calf feels fine, maybe a brisk walk...

RE: Terri I rewound that one part you are talking about many times! When you do the straddle and lift your foot, turn the same way as the foot you are putting down and keep on going that way until you are back on top of the step ready to do the squat. If you can get the turn right, all the...

RE: Thanks guys I guess no one has tried to Re-Alchemy which is the pair that I ordered. I was going to get the Cirrus but the guy I get them from said that the Re-Alchemys seemed to fit better. The problem for me about ordering online is that I don't mind paying the exchange on the American...

I am wondering which pair might be a better choice. Thanks. Kim

Hi everyone Gretchen - hope your achilles is healed for you. Terri - Rhythmic Step is so much fun so don't give up on it. You may just want to watch the tricky parts over and over and you will get it. It all comes together so nicely. Which part is stumping you? Aimee - you go girl...

RE: Aimee - I am curious Hi Aimee I easily have the discipline to work out regularly and have some pretty decent muscle tone and definition. As with many, though, my downfall lately has really been my eating. Oh, I eat the healthy stuff but can really sit down for a pig out on junk as well...

Hi Susan I have tried a fair amount of the recipes in both Looneyspoons and Crazy Plates but still have many to try. I am hoping to try at least one new recipe every few weeks but that does not always happen. My next one to try is the Eggplant Parmesan if I can find some decent eggplants in...

RE: Blueberry Crisp Recipe Hi Nikki Posting today seems to be an experience so I hope this goes. I actually got this recipe from a recipe in Looneyspoons cookbook called "Rude Barb's Strawbabble Crisp" but changed it for blueberries only. Here goes: Topping: 3/4 cup quick cooking rolled...

RE: Thanks Gretchen Yeah, the meal was fairly decent. My man had his two boys over and we all quite enjoyed dinner last night. Did I mention that I made some awesome decadent brownies in addition to the blueberry crisp? I don't think any of you guys have any kind of idea of the amount of...

RE: LOL Debra! Hi there As I read your post, I had to laugh out loud and I am still chuckling. I don't say yes to meat very often myself these days either although I did try the meatloaf and yes, deer is quite lean. I would think it is also pretty much free of any force fed steroids, etc...

RE: Thanksgiving Weekend in Canada Hi everybody I getting geared up to put together a somewhat mixed thanksgiving dinner since my date is a vegetarian and our kids are not. So, I am going to make a Rockin Moroccan Stew from Looneyspoons for us and a wild deer meat meatloaf for the kids along...

RE: I have fairly long arms relative to my height (they are longer than many women who are much taller than I) and it does not seem to affect my ability to do pushups. I think some women are just naturally a little weaker in the upper body so perhaps that could be an explanation. They say...

RE: a little late this LAST EDITED ON Sep-25-01 AT 06:56PM (Est)[p]Hi everyone This is the first time checking in for me since the disaster 2 weeks ago. It is still all so surreal to me. In any event, here was my week of workouts: Monday - rest Tuesday - rest Wednesday - run 60 minutes...

RE: Hi Paulette Being from La Ronge (which is 150 miles more north than Prince Albert), I am wondering if perhaps that "gateway" thing may now have changed? :) If you ever think you might want to get together for a coffee sometime, send me an email since I go through or to Prince Albert at...
