    Why the time change??

    Robin THANKS for getting that tinfoil song in my head. :rolleyes: LOL Evily you lost me on the first line of your post. I appreciate the time change since bootcamp isn't in the dark (at least for a few more weeks). :) I do feel badly for the cats though. They don't get why dinner is an hour...

    Am I unreasonable?

    OMG me too. Drives me CRAZY. I'm 31 and I cannot understand why people can't get the concept of an apostrophe-- I never thought it was all that difficult! UGH. I remember when similar grammatical errors were a generational thing; they may still be-- my old boss looked at me in abject...

    Stupid question

    Seemed to me like Nance's question was one that has not been discussed ad nauseum and I know both women personally so I decided to throw my .02 in the fray. If I don't know of a previous response or cannot point to it, I'll respond. If that makes me snarky to point to a previous discussion...

    Stupid question

    What Catherine said. ;) My HR skyrockets on some of the swings; the basic move is a squat but you're trying to thrust your hips forward as you stand up and somehow (it's physics and I don't understand physics) trying to keep your body in charge of the weight as it swings around recruits all...

    LowMax Question about the "kicks"

    Elle do you have any of Cathe's kickboxing workouts? She explains them more in those. If you don't... The kicks around the world should be just a regular kick where you swing your leg out parallel with the step. Some of them bend their knees on some of the kicks which also works. The way I...

    Catherine (fit fairy) RE: kettlebells

    I smacked my forearms because I wasn't paying attention... I was busy trying to figure out why the women on the dvd were wearing sweatbands from the 80s. I so wish I was kidding.

    Catherine (fit fairy) RE: kettlebells

    Yay for ROBIN and everyone else on my groupie list! ;) The red forearms; oy. Mine are the perform better first place kettlebells but not the vinyl ones. I think they're beautiful! :p I guess I should maybe USE them soon. Sigh-- so many workouts, so little time...

    dance dvds

    You might get some good responses on Open Discussion too, but all I know is that the Firm has a couple dance type workouts that can be low impact. (My sister has one or two.) I'm not sure if Zumba is low impact but when I see people leaving a Zumba workout they're always very sweaty! I think...

    Question for personal trainers

    How much time do you spend with her? Is she perhaps not eating a little something to keep her going? I've found when people start telling me they're getting tired midstream they haven't eaten enough within the 2 hours before we start. I go for time rather than reps, too, like Traci. That...

    baking in oven

    Laura I think it depends on your oven. Mine cooks most in the back left corner so if I have room I'll put it horizontally and rotate it a few times. If there is more than one dish, I need to put it vertically so they both fit. Aside from that, there isn't a reason to place it one direction...
