Low vit D levels are pretty much a given, I hear. I had low levels even when I lived in Southern California and was outside every day. Vit D can help with inflammation, so hopefully you'll get some good relief, Katie! Have fun with your family this weekend! Amy, I forget if you mentioned, what...

Cardio burst today. I'm trying to be better about checking in... Because my workouts aren't in the workout manager I have no reason to go check off and then check in, so then I forget....

Congrats, Katie, on your son's engagement! How exciting! Amy, great job sticking with sts all the way through! Quite an accomplishment. Now that you are done, what did you like most about it and how did it improve your body strength? I did leg bursts yesterday and core bursts today. We are on...

Today's workout was a core burst workout. It's format is about six or so exercises done for about 45 seconds with a 15 second beef and then everything repeats two more times. The exercises target all areas of the abs. It got me sweating, so the burst aspect is definitely there. Have a nice...

Hi Cathy, clad to have you join us! Like Katie mentioned, this is a good group for you, we are all working with our bodies, trying to listen and stay fit. My new workouts are kicking butt. They are so far with minimal weights, but very high rep and my body is sore all over from the different...

I found the workouts on DrAxe's website. Today was cardio blast, yesterday core blast. I have been neglecting my abs, and today I really feel them. So far, I'd say the workouts are very effective in the burst department, warmup gets me warm fast too. It will get repetitive though, I hope I can...

Hi guys, back from my recovery week. I stumbled on a workout set that does twenty minute bursts, which is exactly what they say would be good for me, so Ive started that today. It's going to get very repetitive, because nothing tops cathe, so after a month on this I'll probably work in some...

Amy, nice job on the step count! Sounds like you were very productive in the yard. We got some kiwi berry bushes and planted those yesterday. Have you guys ever had kiwi berries? They are the berry sized version of regular kiwis without the hairy outside and they are less tart too. I hope they...

I seem to be a bit inconsistent lately about my posting. Glad you guys are here to keep the thread going when I don't... Lol! Katie, if there is a link for the news segment, post it so we can see it! How exciting! It's so cool to get private lessons! Maybe those days are numbered when people...

Our weather peaked at 80F yesterday, it's funny how as soon as the sun comes out here in Portland, people start complaining about how hot it is and the kids wilt within ten minutes if that, playing outside. When we lived in Southern California the kids would play in that kind of heat without any...

I did a walk yesterday and sts legs week 3 today. Weather here is gorgeous too. I found some miniature columbines at Costco, so I will be planting those today. They are so cute. When it was really nice beginning of March I had sowed lots of flower seeds in a bare area of the yard, but then it...

I love that you got a private lesson! You deserve it! I agree with Katie, sounds like a great health club, I would love one close by like yours! Your classes sound awesome and it seems like the workouts still accomplish your goal of fitness minus the pain. Sounds like a winner to me! Yesterday...

I did Sts w3 legs today. We were in the yard, although it was not sunny, but it's just so beautiful to see all the plants come back to life! Our local nursery finally had hanging basket plants this weekend, so we made all our baskets yesterday. Because it's been such a warm and early spring, I...

Cleaning never excites me! Lol! Glad to hear you've figured out a routine to remain active that doesn't hurt you, Katie! Those classes sure sound intriguing! I forgot to post my workout yesterday. I did week two legs sts. Enjoy the weekend!

I think the inconvenience factor is what kept lazy me from going out and doing just that... Lol! I shop once a week , too, and I do really well with a menu plan, that way I know what's on the menu, kind of like knowing what workout to do for the day. Seems to really work well for me most days...

Sts dic 4 I like pyramid lower body. Thats a good one to do in place of meso 3 legs. I'm with you on the self control with sweets in the house. I have a friend who will drive to get her cravings fixed. For me, if it's not in the house, I'm fine, I won't hop in the car to get some... Lol. But if...

Sts leg disc 6 today. I hope you had a good Easter weekend. I made some healthy chocolate bunnies for the kids. It tired me out! Lol! I would post a picture but I can't figure out how... The picture is on my iPad, but the forum wants URL ... Not that savy...

It is a mistery why so many people in a world so full of easily attainable knowledge, continue making self destructive choices.... I can't believe the stuff smelled horrible and she still left her window open...! I did sts disc 3 for round two of this week.

I had the worst inflammatory response last time I got exposed to spray! I'm glad you were able to wait a little. I love 4dsplit cardio! I did disc 2 today. The mini burgers and fries were a hit! They also looked really cute and dh thought they were real mini sliders when he first saw them.

I walked today too. The shorter sts version went well. I should add that I also do it lighter as well as shorter, basically with maintenance in mind rather than building more muscle right now. I try to gauge it by getting a nice warmth and stop fairly soon once the warmth turns to burn. I...
