We use Kb's a ton in CrossFit. I use a 35lb one and mostly feel it in my shoulders, lats and core. I like doing them and they get my heart rate up fast.

I do a recovery drink with a 4:1/ carbs:protein ratio. so I put about 1/4 of a scoop of protein powder in 8 oz of 100% juice (right now it's cran/grape).

Routinely in the past I was at 1500. I'm 5'4" and 149 (hard to believe with those measurements I wear a size 4 or 6). Since starting crossfit I have realized that the scale isn't moving to my 135lb goal because I haven't been eating enough and am essential living in semi-starvation mode. So...

The Legs DVD in XTrain also has a bonus bar section.

I think my favorite music score is the one on Athletic Step. It is rocking and really makes me want to do bigger moves for some reason! I just like a good beat.

Can't wait!!

I agree with you all and would like to apologize. I'm in a really dark place right now and I took my anger out on someone I don't even know, probably out of jealously. My words were unacceptable and unnecessary. This is why I have removed my posts. I'm sorry to those I have offended.

I am so with you on this! Every time she says that they are a gift, I'm like "for realz?" The second set is easier, but that first set I'm usually dying, then you do the deadlifts and get a bit of a rest, which makes the next set a bit easier. I, too love that workout, but for me it is by...

That's the bad thing about Shakeology. The freaking price! It is an absolute awesome product and I honestly don't think you can find anything like it in other health food stores or sites, but It's just too expensive. I would love to have one every day, but I just can't justify the cost. I...

It's not all Olympic style lifting. There's all kinds of different exercises. It is only one small component. I'm a smart gal. I know how to be smart about taking on a new challenge. I don't plan on trying to out do everyone my first day. Honestly I'm very surprised it's so frowned upon...

Well I had just worked 2 - 12 hr days, so I didn't work out the previous two days. Definitely wasn't the need for a rest day. I'm guessing it's just due to me taking in less calories. I always try and stay around 1500, but haven't been even close for months. I really started counting again a...

My workout today was the warm up from Tabatacise plus tabatas 4 and 5, then Chest, back and shoulders. Wow! I'm not sure what happened, but I could barely make it through CBS. I felt really good after the tabatas, but I found myself not being able to complete all the reps in CBS like I...

I agree with you all! I love Cathe to death. I do, however, like to have a well rounded fitness regimen. I love to road bike (totally agree this sport can suck you in, but I never go more than 25 miles), I love to do Cathe, I love to swim. I just want to experience crossfit. I love to be...

To me, this is the hardest workout I've done of hers and I've pretty much done them all. Even harder than all five tabatas in Tabatacise. It's like plyo legs on crack.

I just did the HS tabatas this week. I don't have a bag. I did hold 3lb dumbells in each hand, tho. It got me very sore!

Well the last thing I want is an injury. That would be absolutely devastating. I'm just so inspired by the results I have seen with crossfit. I work out so, so hard but I just don't feel like I'm getting out of my workout what I put in. I FEEL like I should be toned and defined, and maybe I...

Does it count that I feel like I'm fasting everyday at my 1500 calorie total?? :) Very intriguing and I look forward to hearing if it works for you and how your workouts are on your fasting days or the day after. I just recently went back to be truthful to 1500 calories a day and I can so...

Crossfit-I'm so defeated :( So I've decided to pursue adding Crossfit into my workout schedule. I went to a Crossfit gym today that my friend goes to just to observe. Before I go on, I would like to say that I honestly consider myself in very good shape. I do mostly Cathe workouts and I do...

Scrubs have really come a long way. There's a Grey's Anatomy brand I love. Also Urban has some cute ones, especially the ones that are made to be similar to yoga pants. I love scrub bottoms, but hate scrub tops, so I usually get a plain long sleeved tee with wear with mine. My most recent...

I would just like to clarify that I never said I didn't like challenging workouts. I'm a cathelete after all. Some workouts do have major dread factor for me though regardless if they're challenging or not. Like Hard Strikes for instance. Not a hard workout, but I don't like it and have...
