    Quick Question - No barbell!

    I used dumbbells also, and I felt like I was getting a good workout. I do wish I had a barbell though, but I don't have the space for it. Just make sure you have enough weight to challenge you. I also puchased the Iron Gym for pull-ups. It's $29 at most drug stores and locks in over your door. I...

    Issues with Go Wear Fit?

    I've been wearing my Go Wear Fit for a week now, and for the most part I like it. However, there have been some things that have irritated me. Maybe someone knows how to fix them? The first is that my digital display becomes unsynced all the time. I have the display hooked to the armband or...

    Cats and white leather furniture?

    Bad idea My cat is declawed in the front, so we thought we were good to go with leather furniture. Well, not so much. When she jumped off the furniture, her back claws would come out, and tear the leather. We purchased a leather coffee table ottoman, and less than 2 weeks later, it looked like...

    Garmin Forerunner

    Love my garmin I love, love, love my Garmin 305. I have very small wrists, so I have to put the gps on the inside of my wrist or it hurts my bones, but other than that, it's great. I hardly notice it. The only problem I have is that sometimes it takes awhile to find the satellite. I run...

    Tell us about your STS results!

    I got what I put into it. I completed the first round of STS (3.5 mos cycle) two weeks ago. Last week was my final recovery week. I didn't lose any weight or inches. I actually gained 2lbs. I'm sure it was somehow my fault though. I was injured throughout the entire program, so I was not able...

    Is this happening to anyone else?

    If you're getting odd ball numbers like 13 or 17lbs, you can purchase plate mates. They are wonderful. They have magnets on them so you can attach them to your dumbbells and increase your weights in smaller increments. I have 3 pairs of them.

    Plan on starting Mesocycle #1 the week of Feb 8th, 2009

    I'm starting on the 8th as well. I'm so excited. My 30th birthday is 2 days after I finish the first 3 months, so my birthday present to myself is a newer/leaner body.

    extra cardio

    I trained for a marathon while doing P90x. I lifted heavy weights to combat muscle loss from all the miles I was logging. I did my runs on my cardio days. You will lose weight from running, but some of it will be muscle. I haven't started STS yet, but I can tell you that doing P90x while I was...

    marathon and sts

    I trained for a marathon while doing P90x. I basically did my runs on my cardio days and still did my weight training. It worked out great. Just keep in mind though, it's hard to build muscle mass while putting in those miles, if that's what you're trying to do.

    Got STS now I am concerned....

    It's very hard for a woman to "bulk up." It takes testosterone and a special diet. You may lean out, but I doubt you will bulk up like you fear.
