RE: Hi, Cyndie! Hi Cyndie! Can you or anyone else tell me how to decide which color of spree tubing to get? I had actually been looking at these products and wanted to incorporate them into my workouts but can't figure out how much resistance I would need to be challenged. Also, since I have...

I also seem to be very prone to shin splints so here are a few tips Ive picked up from various people. One is to not run or walk on an incline (like on a treadmill or hills) until the shin splints are totally healed. Also, building up the strength in your calf muscles can help. One stretch that...

I think this is a great idea and I would be happy to contribute! Thanks Kristina for taking this on and getting it all organized. :-) Alison

I just wanted to let you know that I was finally able to get a copy of Exercising Through Your Pregnancy by James Clapp. The way I got it was through Amazon.com. You can actually post a request for a used book on their site and name the price you will pay and the condition you will accept the...

Hi Miss Mare, I remembered a post from a few months ago on this topic that I thought you might want to read. Here it is: http://64.225.138.194/dcforum/Open/1419.html I hope thats helpful for you as a start :-) Alison

Great thread!! I am so happy to be fit (or at least on the way there) everytime I can pick up my 31/2 year old son and dance with him and twirl him around to his "favorite song" ..Standing Outside the Fire by Garth Brooks. I hope that I can keep picking him up to dance as long as he will let me...

Thank you so much Annette!! Im going to copy and save this on my computer so I will have it when I call to inquire about the classes. I appreciate you taking the time to write all this for me :-) Alison

Hi Ruth, I just want to add on another BIG DITTO to all these great posts. I too can join the club as far as being one who has to struggle through workouts at times. It's amazing how some days you can have so much energy and feel like your legs are like feathers and then other days they feel...

I was just curious what is the difference between the Ivanko Bar and the Troy Lite Bar? And do the prices that people quote include plates with the bar? If not how much did you spend on the whole thing plates and bar together? I was thinking of getting one of these bars :-) Thanks, Alison

Hi Annette, I noticed that the college nearby has a water workout program. Can you tell me what questions to ask or how to tell if it would really be as good a workout as you do for your classes? You have really sparked my interest in this type of workout :-) Thanks, Alison

First I wanted to say I really appreciate all the great recomendations for books and websites from you all. I enjoy reading and learning all I can about this topic. I find I can usually pick up a new idea or thought by reading as many sources on this as I can. So thanks again :-) Jackie, Yes I...

Hi Sue, I have the exact same problem with my step and also tried the glue gun. Your post inspired me to call Bollinger and the woman there said that if I could fax my receipt they would actually send me out a new step. If I could not find the receipt I would have to send the step in and they...

RE: My opinion Hi Kris, I think Erica gave you great suggestions. The selections you picked will all be pretty easy to pick up as far as choreography, with the exception of Rhythmic Step (which I haven't had the courage to try yet hehe). One thing to add is that you have a ton of combonations...

Another thank you from me also!! The updated rotations are great and will be sooooo helpful to me!! I really appreciate all your hard work making them and then also emailing them out to everyone!! Thank you!! :D Alison

RE: Check out Kathleen DesMaisons on Sugar addiction I was sitting here trying to think of a way to respond to that post as well but you did it perfectly Veronica :-) I have been dealing with the same problems with sugar for years, exactly the way you describe. Sugar is addictive in the same...

I totally agree the DVDs are so awesome! I am getting so spoiled with them that when I have to buy a tape Im disapointed! You are right the options will be endless. Only one downside... I now have the ability to eliminate those extra tough intervals in IMAX :-tired ...that's too tempting!! :P...

RE: Massachusetts! LAST EDITED ON Aug-23-01 AT 09:39AM (Est)[p]I also did not post on the old thread. Iam from New Jersey (near Princeton) about an hour to hour and a half from Cathe :-) (Anyone wanna come vist? :D ) Alison

RE: Oh happy day! Congratulations Cathe!!! This is wonderful news. I am so very happy for you and your family. Best wishes for a healthy enjoyable pregnancy. I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers :-) Alison

Hi Susan, I'm not in the over 50 crowd but I just wanted to jump on and say welcome to this board. You really are an inspiration and seem to have a great attitude despite going thru some tough times! :-) Im sure you will get plenty of suggestions but my pick for a starting Cathe Step video...

One other suggestion would be to make sure she is drinking plenty of water everyday. You can be dehydrated before you actually feel thirsty. Alison :-)
