    Awwwwww Nuts...

    No expert here, but: I've used nuts on my diets and never had a problem. Almonds have calcium and walnuts have the omega-3 fatty acids that are so good for your heart and cholesterol. I also love peanuts, cashews, Brazil nuts, sunflower seeds and pistachios. The only ones I avoid are...

    PUB for first time - need some help please

    I agree that PUB, because of its pace and the number of reps, is definitely more an endurance workout than a strength/mass builder. I love the format because it's so much more interesting than three sets of 10 reps. If I want to do more strength, I use the Pyramid Down premix and go heavy on...

    just did abs on PUB - can't stay on BALL LOL!!!

    Gym etiquette

    Aren't some gymrats awful? Let me add - --- Don't wear heavy perfume or cologne, please. It reeks when you start to sweat. --- Don't treat the locker room like it's a fine hotel. There's no maid service, babe. You have to pick up your own towel, and it'd be nice if you'd rinse the sink...

    Clarification on weights

    I'm not Cathe (obviously);) but she gives the total weight she's lifting - so 30# would be the weight of all plate weights combined with the weight of the bar itself.

    Your Junk Food Weaknesses

    Entenmann's raspberry danish twist - white flour, white sugar, trans fats up the wazoo, no redeeming nutritional value at all. And Twizzlers - the thick rope-y kind sold in bags that you can peel into long thin strings.
