The new piece of equipment looks great. I'm glad I haven't bought anything yet for pullups. Can anyone get an idea about how tall the units looks? Can anyone figure out where you would place a lightweight bar? I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT BUYING SOME MORE FITNESS EQUIPMENT!

Not Cathe but I'm doing the same thing you are. I love to run and the weather right now is just too nice to stay in all the time. I substitute a run in place of a steady state aerobic day or an interval run for a cardio workout that has some type of interval/blast sections in it. I hope she...

Hi everyone, I haven't been doing many Cathe workout recently, but instead walk/runs and swimming. I just felt like I needed a break from my routine and the weather has been so nice, I hate to waste it. I've been trying to lose some weight, too but have only managed 2 lbs. so far. I am...

Hi everyone, Jeanette, you biking sounds great. I am always impressed by your endurance. Karen, hope the writing is going well. I need to go to the bookstore as my current reads are boring me. I'm reading the Lost Painting and I can't remember the author but just not into it. I still...

Hi, Not Cathe but a doctor and also have had some personal experience with shoulder injury doing weight workouts. This is likely one (or both) of 2 things. 1) It's a biceps tendonitis from doing the front raises with the heavier weight. In the anterior shoulder you can actually "roll"...

Hi Karen, Rhea, Jeanie, and Jeanette, I haven't checked in for awhile because I lost the location of KK's thread. I started the June rotation last week but have had a sore throat for the last 3 days so I've had to lower the intensity/time of the workouts. Today's workout is supposed to be...

Hi Karen, Hope you have a good weekend planned. Haven't had time to post lately but just had to post the excellent workout I just did. I have the Gym Style Chest and Triceps and I didn't have time for the whole thing so I did the supersets premix on the DVD - it is a great workout! Tough...

Hi everyone, Sounds like you are having a good trip, Karen. When do you get to go home? I just printed the May rotation but not sure if I will do it because I don't have the PS or S&H series. Guess I could just use the gym style workouts but might get a little monotonous. The weather...

Hi everyone, I'm still working through the April rotation but when the weather's nice, I've been substituting a walk/run for the cardio workouts. Today is Leaner Legs and then Core 3. Hope everyone is having a great week. Natalie

Hi everyone, It's nice to be back, Karen. I'm hoping for a less busy April. I am disappointed to read about Cathe's continuing orthopedic problems. I may have to order one of the workouts that I don't have as the new ones look like they won't be here for awhile. I'd like some of those...

Hi everyone, It's been a hard month to keep any continuous workout schedule. I have managed 4-5 days per week but not always the complete workout - sometimes a premix instead. I'm going to do a Muscle Max premix in a few minutes but just wanted to check in on everyone and say hi. Hope...

Hi Jeanette, Karen, Jeanie and Rhea, I'm going to start the March rotation today which is Saturday in hopes that it will get me off for a more consistent workout schedule for this month. I'm going skiing as well on Monday so will sub that for the posted workout. It's cold, clear, and windy...

Hi everyone, I can't believe the month is almost over. I have been away from the computer alot this month so just haven't been able to post. Let's see, I was really sick the last week of January into the first week of Feb. so my workouts were really thrown off. Then we had a skiing trip...

Hi Jeanette, Rhea, and Karen Kay, Karen- your rotation does look good and I have meant to ask you - What is sprint 8? Jeanette - hope everything goes well with your DH's surgery. It's nice that you will be able to take the week off to care for him. Well, the left knee is still sore...

Hi everyone, Karen Kay - Sorry the east coast is having a winter blast during your visit. I woke up this morning to a dusting of snow and a wind advisory for the Tidewater are of Virginia. It is sunny here, too though. Rhea - congratulations on your trial victory. I didn't know that you...

Hi everyone, I've missed visiting out thread. I don't know how the days get away from me! I modified the January rotation to limit the workouts to 60-80 minutes on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday; and Thursday being a 30-45 minutes workout. I usually take Tuesday as my...

Hi Jeanette, Karen Kay, Rhea, and Jeanie, Beautiful winter day today so went on a short walk with my Mom before she left for home. I'm going to do Supersets this afternoon to finish off the December rotation. I have printed the Jan. '06 rotation after editing it to shorten the workouts to...

Hi everyone, My mother is visiting this week so I missed one workout but we took a long walk together this morning in the cold wind - still fun to walk with my Mom, though. May do a core workout now and will plan to do Supersets tomorrow. I've got to get that tree down tomorrow, too...

Hi all, I'm mostly a walker and I just don't enjoy running but untimately the energy expended is meters/second squared no matter what you do. You certainly have to take incline into account but with all things equal, it the distance you travel and the time you exercise. I suppose if you...
