I haven't seen Madonna in a while but last time I see photos of her she looked almost borderline anorexic. Yes you can see her "muscles" if you want to call them that, but only because her body fat is so low. They aren't built muscles, they are just the muscles that she has. Yes, I do...

Awww, aren't you sweet? Wow, I am honored to be in your book of pictures. Thank you so much! That makes me feel really good! :) Allison, thank you as well!

I'm sorry to hear this, Randi. My thoughts and prayers are with you!

Dallys - Yes, I've had almond butter before. It's very good but haven't bought any in some time now. Why is it better? Just curious. Sandy - I'm just winging it with this rotation but when you're ready for it, I'll be glad to send you my spreadsheets. :)

Lorie, that's what I do. I usually start out around 5.5 and go from there. Depends on the day. Sometimes I surprise myself and can go faster and other days I just don't have it in me. I won't give up on iTreads, they are excellent workouts like I stated in my original post. I just needed to...

Lorie, excellent post. You are an inspiration!

Char - I am eating less and lost 2# last week. I'll see how I do this Saturday. I keep track once a week. I was so hungry last night that I gave in and made my banana protein pancakes. That brought the carbs and fat up even more but I really didn't care. It's better then eating a candy bar...

Had an excellent workout this morning! I am very happy with my weights and reps with this workout. Again, I did a pyramid-type workout. 1 minute rest between each set [font color=indigo]BACK[/font] Close Grip Chinups: BW - 15 !!!! (PB I believe!) 10# - 6 BW - 9 [font...

Teddygirl - Sorry, I missed you post from yesterday. I totally forgot to look for those eggplants! I'll put it on my list and look for them Saturday. Thanks for the reminder!

Karin, me too!!! I was feeling like such a wimp doing these workouts. I keep up with Sean no problem, but Grace... No way. Those numbers are just too unrealistic for me. Glad to know I'm not alone!

Maybe change it up with one of the Get Ready for Summer rotations. That will bring out definition and lean out your body to show off those hard earned muscles.

What do you need to know about nutrition? :)

Greens are good at any time day or night. Watch out for veggies like corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc. They are good to have with maybe one meal a day, but these are very high starchy carbs and should be eaten in moderation.

>I've never done iTreads because I don't have treadmill and I >don't run, but I love Cardio Coach. Coach Sean sent me a >prerelease version of volume 8 along with a checklist of items >to review. One of those items was timing. He wanted me/us to >time the intervals and report any mistakes...

Emily, I'm right there with you. When I "jog" (which is my semi-run) at a speed of 5.5 my HR tells me I'm running. Geez. And how can anyone walk at a pace of 4.0-4.5? THAT is my warmup jog. Maybe she's 8' 5" or something and her legs are just too long for her to figure out true settings?

First I have to say that these are excellent workouts. But I do have a few gripes about them. What jogger jogs at a speed of 6.5 - 7.0??? Unless my treadmill is out of the ordinary, I consider 6.5 and espeically 7.0 a run. My legs usually can't keep up when I'm at a speed of 7. I use that...

Today was cardio and I chose Itread Set #2 that was 40 minutes. These workouts are continuous running of some sort. Kind of frustrating that there isn't more rest periods. I did fairly well, though. Then I did the ab work from Kick, Punch & Crunch. Love that one! [font...

Just one quick word of advice. PLEASE eat something after your workouts. It is a MUST! The best thing you can have after a workout is a protein shake. Mix in some fruit with it. Your body needs food after 2 p.m., you cannot go that long without it. Your muscles need to feed on something...
