I've done STS 3 times without a Turbo Tower. I am kicking myself for not buying it last year for $65 from Amazon with free shipping! :mad: It is discontinued and hard to find now. There are other towers that will work. There was a discussion here recently about other towers that people were...

This is why I like this forum, because nobody else seems to understand. Having to deal with all the general ignorance out there about women lifting weights drives me crazy, but I have learned to keep my mouth shut. A good friend of mine (another nutritionist!) said, "I just think it is so cute...

Wow, two months! I just completed a Mud Mucker race on a mountain here in NH. Now that I've survived that it is all about getting ready for the road trip. This will be my second. I'm most excited about experiencing the road trip without the anxiety that I had last year. I'm planning to be...

A foam roller stretch would be great. I never know what I'm doing with that thing.:D

I can only speak for myself, but I'm 5'3" also and about 110 pounds. I got the recommendation of 1200 calories a day too, but it is way too low. I workout about 5 days a week, and I find that 1800 calories is good for maintaining my weight and 1500 is good for weight loss. I hope that helps.

"Oh, you look so good doing that." I always think, how does she know? :D

Good question! I have to use much lighter weights for almost everything. I come closest to matching her in legs and my worst is triceps. I just sit there with my eyes bugging out watching her do triceps. I always push myself as much as I can and continue to get stronger so I don't worry...

You can't go wrong with Cathe's STS series. You do need quite a bit of equipment and there is a significant expense involved. I recommend checking her website for information about STS and seeing if that is what you're looking for. Good luck!

I'm reading Game of Thrones by George R. R. Martin. It is the first book in a five book series called A Song of Fire and Ice. I'm not watching the show on HBO because I don't want to spoil anything. It's certainly different from HG, but it has interesting characters and a great plot that...

I think one of the many reasons that people get such great results with STS is the emphasis on using the right amount of weight. You really want to use the heaviest weight you can to just complete the reps with good form. As the others mentioned, this requires some paperwork and note taking...

I only have her 2010 Peak 10 Cardio DVD, but I love it. Michelle Dozois is great. She's my top pick if I'm going to "cheat" on Cathe :p. I find her choreography fun and fairly simple without being boring. The workout I have is challenging but not crazy hard if you're used to Cathe. I say go...

Another vote for a daily deal on the 4 Day Split!

I'd like another Slide & Glide too. I like the idea of have a 60 minute cardio only option. Right now Slide & Glide (cardio only) is my go to workout when I have leg DOMS. It is a miracle worker!

Thanks everyone for making me feel better about getting so lost. I was able to learn Rhythmic Step, Step Blast and LIC without too much trouble (except for routine 4 in LIC - that was tough). I didn't know the step routines in 4DS were that hard - good to know. I'm probably going to need to...

I just tried Step Moves for the first time today. I was L - O - S - T!!! :confused: I've never had such a hard time following a step workout before. I'm sure it will be fun once I finally get it, but I'm afraid it will take many, many attempts. I enjoy dancey step too, but I was just staring...

I love them. I download them to my laptop and then connect my laptop to my TV using an HDMI cable. Super easy!

I don't see anything for the 2011 Road Trip. Can anyone else find the pictures?

Where do we find them?

I'm a total meal planner and my friends make fun of me for it (in a nice way, of course). On Sundays I would draw columns on a piece of paper and write the days of the week and start planning. One time I was shopping at the Christmas Tree Shop with my friends and someone pulled out a pad with...

Almost daily. If I don't weigh in often, the pounds start creeping on. This is definitely one of those whatever works for you kind of things.
