Laura, that is very scary. I saw those pictures on FB and was afraid that you'd been in an accident ... so very glad you and the girls are okay!!! Another test of your driving skills passed: you did not end up in the creek. You've got the best attitude, have to say - you sound very brave and...

Happy Birthday! You're a tremendous asset to this forum - you deserve a fantastic celebration today :)

Good morning all! Here's hoping we are each waking to blue skies ... or, in Laura's case, a wonderful ski weekend. Laura, your brother is due about now for a skii vacation, isn't he? Yesterday was a rest day - turned out I hadn't taken a true full day away from training for a week and a half...

Hi all, I'm about beat! Long day. And, I'm connected to much of our team on FB now! It has been fun to look at those pages, but I should have come here first to check in :o Now I'm pushing bedtime, so this will be a short report and personals tomorrow. Today was STS Meso 2 Week 2 Legs. My...

A TRX! For travelling! That would be terrific! Great thread, Janie :)

Great!!! I went ahead and set up a President's Challenge team for us. It is a private team, though we can open it up later to everyone if we wish. The name is (of course) Name: Getting Our Licks In! Number: 89874 The instructions said that we'd each need an individual id number, but I...

Good morning all! It was a typical Monday working from home - lots of busy administrative things that came up over the weekend, all kinds of fun work too including paper deadlines :eek:, and probably just as well that the skies were dripping water all over us, or I'd've had trouble getting...

Today was oddly ... normal. We went to a community group brunch, and had an enjoyable time socializing. What I had was pretty yummy! Omlets made to order. The cook explained to me how learned to flip them (it involves a piece of bread and lots of practice). Bought hand-made glass arrowheads at...

One of my bars weighs 4 pounds, the other 15 ... but that's enough of a difference that you'd probably notice, if there was so much of a chance between yours.

1) Meso 3 - you have to let me have at least one week of it, and all my equipment that goes along. It better be a big island :) 2) HIIT Cardio 3) 4DS or CTX, can't decide And I'm taking my ipod filled with Cardio Coach, too :p

I'm not sure my opinion is all that helpful because I have and use both very regularly :) But for what it's worth ... I've had various Polars for a few years, and the GoWearFit for about a year. The Polar HRM is most helpful to me in these situations: * when I am doing something that the...

Veronica, if you kept the reps/weights you used in entering the 1RMs, you could just add 12 pounds to the weight and re-compute. That will give you the most accurate results. I ran a test to see how much difference it would make in a situation where you thought you were lifting 100 pounds...

Laura :eek::eek::eek::eek: Thank goodness you and the girls are okay!!!! What a horrible drive. It sounds like you were amazing, though, keeping away from the obstacles, keeping the girls as calm as you could, and dodging all of those crazy people who thoughtlessly blocked the road. And then...

That's terrific! Great job! Are you using the dvd or the book for the Kettlebell workout?

I have spring collars too, and really like them. Most have held up fine; one set that came free with another purchase became too loose after a few months. But they are not costly. Has anyone tried the lock jaws? or are they only for olympic bars. For plates, I went with one set of vinyls...

I really like my Cap. It can go over 200 pounds. My first barbell was from Walmart, and was able to go to 140, but by the time I finished Meso 3, I was lifting more than that in deadlifts. The Cap is heavier and the bar was more expensive, but it has a nice feel and I don't mind the extra...

Hi all! I got home about five minutes ago. Thought I'd stop in and say hello to everyone. I missed our check in this week, let me tell you. It is wonderful to be home. Unfortunately DH is out; one of his rare trips. So, I'm off now to feed all the critters, since they have been alone for quite...

Hi all, time to go sure came quickly! I'm off in a quarter hour from starting this note ... Shoegal, great to hear about Hobie. He is one lucky boy! And good job in leaving him there barking. That is the *hardest* thing for me, and yet it's absolutely necessary or else the pup or horse or...

I preordered and it was certainly worth it!!! I have never had a preorder of dvds here that hasn't paid off big time :D It is like investing money in the bank :D The HIIT and Travel Fit disks are the ones I use most from the Shock Cardio set. More and more often I find myself starting up...

Good morning all! It is gorgeous outside - so I wanted to stop by here to say hello before I disappear into the great outdoors :) Tomorrow afternoon I'm headed off again for about five days, so it may be awhile after today before I am back. Janie, none of our pets have needed long term shots...
