    Bringing up the Rear Check-In

    Hi guys ! Last night I had to go to the mall so of course I went by Dick's and splurged on Hex dumbels with the rubber coating on the ends [ 12's & 25's ] - now I wish my others matched ! They feel great in my hands too , even though there's quite a bit of black grease on them , but nothing that...

    Bringing up the Rear Check-In

    Bringing up the Rear Check-In

    I was into the candy corn that I really bought for myself . I wonder how many adults actually buy Halloween candy for themselves ? Oh well . No problems with guilt over here ... Carolyn , Thanks for the laugh - I promise I won't tell anyone about your knees [ whispers ] ! I got the Traumeel and...

    Bringing up the Rear Check-In

    Hi guys ! Carolyn , Thanks - I know you know how it feels . I always try to be careful with it but this time I can't tell how I hurt it , just that I did . Getting new sneaks for your walks is a good idea - I think I'll be joining you on the walks ! Julie , Breaking your foot sounds really rough...

    Bringing up the Rear Check-In

    Hi everyone ! ARRRG ! I don't even want to admit it but I did something to my knee last Wed night . It started to hurt after To The Max but I thought it was from the rain - I didn't feel anything at all until later that night and by morning it was swollen and hurt to bend . I can't even...

    Bringing up the Rear Check-In

    Bringing up the Rear Check-In

    Carolyn , I still have to do FT , but I did Party Rockin Step #2 tonight after GS Chest and Tri's - I had a blast ! Total sweatfest , but I found it doable and really didn't miss too many steps , since I never preview like I should . I love step but I have to be careful not to tweak my knee so I...

    Party Rockin' Step #2 Review

    I did PRS#2 tonight and I really loved it ! I picked it instead of #1 because it seemed easier and I never preview like I should . Sure , I missed a few steps but had a blast and was totally drenched by the end . I loved the music and Cathe is so happy and having so much fun that it's hard to...

    Laugh of the day!

    I almost got sick I was laughing so hard - the writing is great - but I also have what I refer to as an ," allergy ", to artificial sweeteners , so let me say that there was no exaggeration whatsoever in those reviews !

    Who else gets tired from her workouts?

    Last week when I did X77 , I was tired but I also felt euphoric [ endorphin flood ] , so I guess there's a difference between feeling tired and drained - or tired and great . I think I experience the whole range .

    X10 Step Review

    Same here ! I've used X10 in so many ways - as a warm up for weight work , quick cardio or for the ultimate X77 . The X10 step w/ the 15 lb. weight is no joke !

    Bringing up the Rear Check-In

    Carolyn , That's a long time to go without rest ! But I think it's probably more important to gauge how you feel rather than to pencil rest days in like I do . I haven't tried Great Glutes yet - I wonder if it might be a good glute activation w/o ? Amanda , I really like the new GG w/o's for...
