    Came home, found my sweet baby kitty, dead

    I am so, so, sorry. Losing a pet is very difficult. No matter what the circumstances. He is now at the Rainbow Bridge, healthy and whole, playing with the other kitties and pets. Waiting for you. My deepest sympathies... ~Renee

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Enjoying my weekend, spending time at a friends pool and relaxing...ah, getting into that summertime mode. Yesterday was STS 25, chest and back. I kicked a$$ if I do say so myself! ;) Today will be Insanity Pure cardio. This is my first attempt at anything "insanity" so it should prove to be...

    Myoplex and Muscle Milk

    Very interesting. I think, with all things, one must weigh the pros and cons. I use Gold Standard whey protein and will continue to do so. I will have one a day, sometimes 2 on my weight lifting days. I accept the risk...daggone...living is a risk! I'd rather use my protein drinks, then drink...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Laura, Its okay. And who says when it is time to be "over it"? I will always feel the pain and loss of losing Noodles 2 years ago. You honor Maggie, and its okay. Cry if you need too! I won't hold it against you. Anyone who loves someone, even a dog or cat, won't hold it against you. Its only...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Hey, Hey, Hey! What a week! Exercise...going great guns. Yesterday I did BodyMax 2 Cardio Premix...OMG, it was so much fun. I had the best time. It felt great, and surprisingly todays felt great too. I say that because I had MIC (max intensity cardio) on my rotation. Not one of my favorites...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    ONLY 10 more DAYS! Come on summer! I did STS 8, tri's and back today. Good workout, lots of sweat. Yesterday was Power Max and Ab Circuit med ball. Loved it. Tomorrow is Body Max 2, no upper body weights, just the cardio. I'm nearing the end of Cathe's October 09 rotation. Which I highly...

    What equipment needed?

    OK, so I went and measured my barbell it is 4 feet and 8 inches long!! I then measured the spots where the weights stop... just under 32 inches...about 31 and 5/8. AND it won't fit the tower. Gosh, I thought I was going nuts...the tower measured 32 inches exactly and my barbell just won't fit...

    What equipment needed?

    I got mine from Sam's Club of all places. Wish I had gotten it from Troy, and this is why; It is short....5 feet long and doesn't fit on the Push/Pull Tower. Would be nice if it did so I could use my barbell from above, instead of hoisting it up for those heavy bench press sets in meso 2 and 3...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Howdy! Yesterday I did STS 29 plyo-legs. Love those anaerobic power drills. What a sweat-fest that one is. Today I have the pleasure to do STS 10 Chest Shoulders and Biceps. I will probably do the heavy bag bonus from MMA:boxing first as a "warm-up". Tomorrow I get to do Power Max plus ab...

    how important is recovery week?

    Wow, I thought the recovery week was very important. At least to me it was. The mental and physical "beating" of STS was great, but I appreciated that week to recover. And it was a very active one, each time. Lots of cardio and stretches. Also a mental prepartion for the next STS phase. After...

    Boxing recommendation

    I have a standing Wavemaster XXL, like the one Cathe uses in MMA:Boxing Heavy Bag bonus. I love it, but I think one that hangs from the ceiling would be great too. I guess it depends on the area/space you exercise in. And as for gloves...well, I use the wavemaster gloves but also have 12 ounce...

    What equipment needed?

    Another place to check is Play It Again Sports. I have gotten some good deals there, but you definately want to shop around. Perhaps classified ads or CraigsList. Gopd luck. ~Renee

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Here I am! I've been here, just not writing anything. I know...naughty me. I did premix cardio only of 4DS Boot Camp. Its only 34 minutes, but Cathe packs it with high intensity drills to really get your heart rate up and the sweat pouring. Hooray! And tomorrow is my "rest" day! Cathe's...

    Getting Our Licks In!

    Hello everybody! Yesterday I did IMAX 3, and is that a tuff little workout! It made me feel like I did when I was doing Basic Step two years ago...totally spent, and looking like I just got out of a swimming pool! LOL And this was after disc 3 STS 1 the day before. My legs and glutes are not...

    What equipment needed?

    Well now, a barbell with weight capacity between 55-95 pounds, an elastic band thingy, and something to do chin-ups on. I have the push pull tower and find that to be perfect. I also have an Iron Gym...that pull-up bar that goes on a door frame. Well, unless you have great upper body strength...

    Good Saturday Morning! The Relay for Life Walk-a-thon for the American Cancer Society is more like a celebration then a walk-a-thon. Each team sets up a table/booth and sells stuff. Perhaps food, or trinkets or longaberger basket raffles. Just a bunch a stuff to help raise money, celebrate...
