    STS first time!

    Hi everyone, My neck feels normal today, thanks. I did Intensity and Ab Circ Stab Ball Abs. I tell you, there is a lot of jumping in Intensity, esp in the high-impact HiiT part!:confused:. I even opted to use no risers since step seems to hurt my knees and feet. Colleen and Mary, glad you...

    STS first time!

    I did get the headache:confused:. I tried eating, neck stretches, yoga forward bend to hang my head, deep breaths, lots of water, sun salutations, nothing worked. I then drank a container of coconut water and my headache retreated! First time! Often, I feel like these headaches are from...

    I hope everyone is on the upswing as well! Came back from errands with a stiff neck, which could lead to a headache!:confused: Hungry too, so I'm eating now. Could be from the heat too. Same temps as Carolyn is describing but even though it is still only in the 60s, the car heats up so fast...

    STS first time!

    We had some brief showers which didn't even penetrate under the tree canopies!:confused: Only and just enough to wet DS during track practice! I really do love XT! Cathe did say that XT is in the same vein as CTX, which I don't have. I would say my least used DVDs in that series are the...

    Oh no, Missy, you too? Spring colds always catch us unaware!:eek: Colleen, green tea with honey for the sore throat. Last night sounded awful for you!:( Here's another link to an entire book published in 1972 by Irwin Stone about the benefits of Vitamin C. Go to chapter 12 to read up on...

    Hi girls! It is chi-lly! Have my microfleece robe on (a permanent fixture in all but the hottest summer months) and a blanket over my shoulders!:eek: My shoulder cage and neck area are so sore from BB UB yesterday! I feel the stiff neck column more than anything. Carolyn, liking Core...

    STS first time!

    Carolyn, so awesome your pain went away! Were you ovulating? Colleen, UB is still so new to me, I was just as lost and behind. And I keep having to remind myself that I don't need cardio! Mary, DS1 had a classmate who found her passion in rowing when she got to high school. Ended up going...

    Wow, Missy, you're not messing around! 13 miles! Impressive! Way to go! Carolyn, it's amazing you can feel your left ovary. My sis can feel when she ovulates. I'm oblivious. Take a rest day. You've earned it. Made Belgian waffles earlier. Love my machine! Oh, and yesterday I made...

    Yum, hot fudge! Hope you enjoyed it--no guilt allowed!:p Who forgot the hot fudge?? If DH is at his wits' end, maybe he'll try it. What's there to lose?

    Hi everyone, Boy, it's hot in the sun! Thank goodness the humidity is temporary. Carolyn, you're so funny!:D You are saying the very things I do in the heat of the summer! Sorry about DH. Will he take a tbsp of coconut oil?? Ewww, dog smell! Does anyone have disgusting, gross...

    I ended up doing 4DS Boot Camp (I think I've only done this once before!), Tris & Bis, Ab Circ Yoga Abs. Cathe had pigtails in the workout. In IMAX2 she looks adorable in pigtails. I have always felt the cardio segments in 4DS are so rushed. Inadequate warmups and cool-downs. I forgot to...

    Good morning and Happy Friday! Sunny, some humidity, near 80 later. Dare I try Rhythmic Step this morning? I don't know. Used to just frustrate me to no end. I'll look through my underused dvds...

    Hi gals, Finally getting some decent rainfall. Hope it lasts longer than an hour. Sheesh. Now I remember what I don't like about summer! Humidity, and rain/showers bringing mosquitoes.:eek: Can't be outdoors for long without feeling one or both.:confused: Not complaining yet though. It's...

    Carolyn, how hot is it? (You sound like me in the summer!) It is cloudy and slightly humid here, but in the 60s. The rain that's been promised has so far only sputtered a few random drops!:confused: I want some heavy, soaking rain! Enjoy your Wags! They look like a very neat concept. But...

    Hi girls, This morning I ended up selecting SuperCuts, 100 RC Hip Thrusts, and Extended Stretch. I don't know if it's age or what but I feel constantly achy (and cranky) from the workouts. So then I feel unenthusiastic as I'm doing them. I don't feel like pulling out the weights, don't...
