    I am afraid I won't be able to do the new workouts

    Listen to yourself set yourself up for failure before you've even started: "I am terrified" "I just don't think I am fit enough for this series" "I am afraid these routines are going to be too complicated for me" "I really don't like the stability ball" "I sure can't get all the way down...

    Just checking in to see if Cedie's around anywhere...

    I've been around these forums a long time (about 8 years), and I've never know Cedie to post. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    Saw "Departed".....

    RE: Saw Leonardo has ALWAYS been a good actor - when he was a kid, he was in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," and he was unbelievable! And what can we say about Jack Nicholson - one of the best. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias...

    Getting back to exercise......

    I like Marcia's option - give it a month or so and move on to the beginner rotation. BUT - be sure you walk progressively faster, too. Prevention magazine's website has a lot of good walking workouts which you may want to check out. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias...

    Chinup check in 10/12/06

    You're really reading way too much into this - I merely noted that that purpose of the threads is not chins, or hardly ever, so why not change the name of it? If you tend to talk about yoga more, then call it a yoga thread. I said nothing about being disappointed. "You can't win them all -...

    Chinup check in 10/12/06

    Why don't we do away with the chin-up check in and change it to a -in Yoga check-in. The discussion is seldon about chins anyway. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    Can Someone Give Me A Good Site for my son!!!

    http://www.menshealth.com/cda/homepage.do?site=MensHealth&channel=home&source=rodale You could get him subscription of the magazine for him, and he could go to the library and check out a copy of the Abs Diet, also by the guys at Men's Health. He then could buy a used copy cheap online...

    Daily Check In Sunday Oct 15

    RE: Daily Check-in My cheat day is just that, the whole day, and I really look forward to and enjoy it. It makes it easier to get through the rest of the week and all the temptations involved. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias...

    Gym Style Push Ups - what's your strategy?

    I agree - the way to increase what you can do is to do them, and keep doing them. IMO, the best way is to do as many as you can for your first set, and do more sets until you've done whatever # you've planned to do for the day. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias...

    Daily Check In Sunday Oct 15

    Planned a long walk today, but have to hang around the house because of car trouble. Battery was dead when I tried to venture out this morning, so luckily the AAA service does repairs so I won't be without wheels for long. Frustating, however, because I wanted to get out. I do too much...

    Daily Check-in for Saturday, October 14

    Checking in late - I find if I check in before I work out, I don't do what I posted that I had hoped to do. Oct. 14 workout was Hardcore #2, the Interval one, which I'd not done before. This would be a good Thanksgiving Day workout! I almost made it through the whole thing - I quit before I'd...

    People can be so good!

    Miz LauraMax - This jumped out at me that you said, "I have nothing else to share since my entire life revolves around the gym & the office. x( " Girl, you need to get out more! You sound like me, and I know I have to expand my horizons to include more than working out and working. In...

    Ever do a "Listening to your Body Rotation"?

    RE: Ever do a Yeah, more and more as I get older! I used to very anal about strictly adhering to so many of this and that type of cardio every week, but now I go more toward what I feel like doing given my energy level. I also am paying more attention to taking more than one day off per week...

    Mass building/loss on P90X?

    Don't EVER worry about losing muscle when you do non-weighted exercises! I would not call a pull-up "without weights," 'cause you're lifting your body weight! "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]

    Estimating food portions

    I use that trick of using small plates, bowls, spoons, etc., and I DO think it helps. However, I don't recall EVER noticing how much a dinner companion was eating and feeling I had to keep up! The only time I order dessert is if it's on Saturday and if I have to use up a gift certificate! I...

    cold weather gear

    I don't run, but do walk outside in the winter, and I love my Nike Thermafit pants (which I got at Marshall's) and pullover - add a scarf, gloves and earmuffs, and you're all set. I got a pair of LL Bean Snow Sneakers, too. "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias...

    Estimating food portions

    It WAS in Men's Health, after all! What could we compare it to, a tube of lipstick? "You can't win them all - but you can try." - Babe Zaharias http://www.clicksmilies.com/s0105/musik/music-smiley-004.gif[/img]
