Just got notification that a spot opened up!!! I was so excited during sign ups and so disappointed when I didn't get in. Now I'm having second thoughts. Somebody please give me a pep talk!! I'm nervous because - 1-I've never done a RT before. 2- I'd be attending alone. 3-I'm worried...

Thanks for the advice ladies! Jane, that is kind of what I thought. Since kettlebells are so pricey I want to make sure I choose carefully, but I know I'll probably need a few different sizes. Do you recommend one particular brand over another?

I just purchased the Skogg kettlebell DVD set. I will begin with the instructional segment to get the 6 moves down. I have a very light (8 lb) kettlebell to practice with. I am pretty strong but want to be extra careful not to hurt myself while I'm learning. What is a reasonable recommendation...

100 mile run!!!! OMG! How do you do that???

Sandi, I think that would be a great idea. I sometimes use Anna's Cathe compendiums when I am searching for a premix or want to remember what I have. I have so many Cathe workouts that many go unused because I forget about them. Just yesterday I referred to the compendium to find an upper body...

:D:D Just finished Step Blast. I haven't done this workout in a really long time. As a matter of fact, I haven't done any step in a long time since I've been recovering from injuries. It was so refreshing to do this workout. What really surprised me was when I looked at the copyright. Was it...

Congratulations, fitbyfifty! I'm currently working through the program and mixing in another rotation. I think I'm at about day 15. I love UY!

Yes! I can do it but I find holding those stretches SO hard. It is almost painful ( not injury pain, but discomfort). I'm supposed to be doing it this morning. I hope it is a little easier this time. I figure if it's this hard I must really need it. All in all I am loving this program! Hang in...

Cupcake, you will not be sorry! I like Travis Eliot better than Bryan Kest. I have Bryan's power Yoga and I did like it,( never able to do the 3rd workout), but the quality of UY is a lot better. Travis' cueing IMO is a lot better, so you don't need instructions other than his cue. Apparently...

I got a used Johnny G spin bike from Craigslist. I paid $200 a few years ago. It is terrific.

Shannon- Do it. You will not regret it. I just finished the first week and I am hooked. To give you a little background here goes.I always thought yoga was not really a workout. I'd describe myself as a Type A with a tendency to over exercise, tracking calories consumed, calories burned etc...

Ha! That's why I really liked speed spin. I am backing off a bit from my regular routine due to knee and nerve pain in my leg. The speed spin was perfect, just 30minutes.I went all out for the class and then put on my own music and rode for another 15 minutes.

Wow! I signed up for the free week and did a Speed Spin workout this morning. It was fantastic. The music was pumping, the instructor Cat was really motivating. I will definitely purchase many of these. Definitely worth checking out.

Thanks for the tip, Jen.In addition to Ride and Cyclemax, I have many spinning DVDs that I love. I also purchased downloads from the Sufferfest. The sufferfest uses actual footage from races- very cool. I will check out studio sweat as I am currently injured and will need to use spinning as my...

Very impressive!! I am also a morning exerciser, I get up at 5, have a cup of coffee complete a workout and head for work. I also go to classes 3 nights a week ( Zumba and two stretching classes) so I guess I could manage doubles if I really tried. I'm planning on backing off the impact for the...

Yay!!! I did it I did it!! I ordered Ultimate Yogi and it will be here tomorrow!!! Thanks for the input everyone. Fit by fifty, just curious, how did you manage to do both rotations at the same time? I'm impressed. I'm almost done with the 90 day Xtrain rotation and I do add in some other...

Thanks Macbeanur! I'm still on the fence a little bit. Horsing Around, I love the rotation you posted combing Ride with UY. I was thinking of doing something similar because I'm nervous I'd lose some fitness doing exclusively yoga. Amazon has it for $91, just in case anyone needed some enabling...

Thanks for the reply! I'm leaning heavily toward buying this. I can see it is quite a time commitment so I have to be ready to eliminate my other activities in order to have the time to do this as intended. Glad it helped you with sleep. I know I'm miserable to be around if I don't get enough sleep!

I am considering this set and wonder if anyone has any feedback for me.It is a 108 day yoga program. I have been following the 90 day undulating Xtrain rotation which I LOVE. It will be over in about 2 weeks.I've substituted Ride on days that I just can't handle impact. At the same time I've...

Thanks guys!!! I'm gonna check it out:D
