Dawn, Just a suggestion...maybe "treat" him to a few sessions with a male personal trainer to hone his form and his knowledge? Maybe this would open the doors to fitness for him without coming from his wife, his family, etc. Sometimes it's hard to take criticism from those we love the most. I...

I worked at a country music station, and then a heavy metal station... I met Vince Gill (he actually came into the office with singles when he was trying to get into country; his wife at the time lived in a nearby town), Hank JR, Whispering Bill Anderson, Bill Monroe, Mark Farner from Grand...

In my perfect world... The laugh lines around my eyes and mouth would be gone, but laughing wouldn't cause anymore wrinkles... I'd have a second home in northern Italy, in the Dolomites... I'd have my landscaping stay perfectly groomed and trimmed without lifting a finger... I'd have a magic...

I've been told I look like a young Bridget Bardot...I remind people of those old, sex-kitten types you used to see in the movies. Amy

I'm reading this and just loving it. You missed one of my favorites, though. I was sure someone would have already mentioned it. If it's not in PUB, it's another weightlifting video...Cathe says "Make sure you have dumbbells around you" and Rhonda gets this slightly offended look on her face. I...

Keta, Wow! Good for you. I think you'll be fine. IMAX is tough, but you're tougher. You have proof. Good luck to you. We're all thinking about you and your goals. Amy

Rebecca, Don't have any advice, but I hope someone can help you. So sorry about your dog. Amy

Sasha, I took creatine for a couple of months and I had really good strength gains. You have to drink a lot of water so you won't be dehydrated. Here's some info that I pulled off the Muscle&Fitness Hers website. To Start: 3 grams of creatine er day (vs. 5 grams for males). Observe how your...

Everyone is so blessed this Christmas! I feel overwhelmed by my husband this year. He not only bought me winter tires and rims for my Audi TT Roadster, he surprised me with a pearl bracelet and pearl drop earrings which match the pearl necklace he bought me last year. I also got one of those...

My husband just caught me sneaking a look at the newly posted photos of the Body Blast series. He said, "I don't know anyone else who is so excited about torturing themselves!" I thought, "Hmmm, I'll bet I do!" Amy

Hey, all! I need some advice regarding my current training and was hoping to get some feedback. For the last 3 or 4 months, I have been training with my husband. We do a three day split with heavy weights plus long bike rides, runs, intervals, etc. It's really helped me increase my strength...

RE: The "Very few videos" rotation Hey guys, Yes, my sister weighs 235 pounds. She's working diligently to lose the weight she gained when she quit smoking. She's 5' 10" and is a large frame, so she looks very good at 170 lbs. Crystal...it sounds like a lot of weight, but with a spotter and...

OK, here's the rotation my husband has designed for me for the summer. When it changes, I'll let you know...probably in another 6 weeks... Day 1 Long, steady cardio, usually a run, 1 hour, 15 minutes Day 2 Chest, Shoulders, Tris ( 3 sets with heavy weights, 10 - 12 reps. Chest...

Hi Shelley, If you really want me to share, I'll post on the rotation forum. But basically it's your basic bodybuilder workouts mixed with sprint work, intervals, longer but slower cardio days (all usually running or I sneak in Cathe intervals) and, of course, we are including climbing even if...

Ok, I need some reassurance here. My husband, who is extremely fit, has suggested a new rotation for me and I'm almost two weeks into it. I must say that I am really sore (in a good way) and making progress. The only thing that is driving me nuts is I'm not using any videos except for 1/2 hour...

RE: Feeling very cared for right now Annette, I'm sorry that I missed this post a few days ago. I just wanted to let you know that I have you kn my thoughts and prayers. It sounds as though you have a positive attitude which will outshine any adversity. I'm with everyone else. The buzz cut is...

RE: OK, What's your Myers-Briggs Personality Type? Mine is INTJ. There are not enough choices available, so I am going to just list the 4 main temperaments. If you want to take the tests, Google Myer- Uh-oh, I'm an ENFP. I actually clicked on "jobs" for ENFP's and I've actually held 4 of them...

Yuck! Brewer's yeast? I tried it once and it was horrible. Maybe it was old or something? Amy

Marisa, Here are some ideas that I use to spice things up when using vanilla... - peanut butter or almond butter (up to 2 tbsp) - coconut and rum flavorings together - cold decaf coffee, sometimes with a little dash of cinnamon - Crystal Lite, any flavor - cold Chai tea These pretty...

Amy, Good luck to you! I'm sure that with a thyroid condition, this will be tough for you. I recently read an article in Oxygen magazine about Jenny Worth who also has to work very hard to keep her weight in control and she's a fitness competitor on a regular basis! Her lifestyle sounded way...
