    Valerie Waters - Action Hero Babe

    Okay, this post has me ready to post. These were my concerns. The name and focus on women's issues makes me think "cheezy". But if you like her even after doing Cathe. The workouts are supposed to be alternated with cardio, right?

    Valerie Waters - Action Hero Babe

    To the OP, I'm considering these also and I don't know what to do. I thought I'd let you know that you're not alone. I just bought P57 and hated it. I don't want to jump on another bandwagon and be disappointed but at the same time, I finished Insanity two weeks ago and loved it and I need...

    how do you w/o when traveling?

    Insanity is great for travel I used Insanity this summer when we went to my MIL's. I played the workouts on my computer and did them in the unfinished basement. But, I could have just as easily done them in the backyard. No equipment is needed and you get cardio and strength work. I didn't...

    Is deodorant bad for children?

    Jeepers, here's something I never thought about. My girls have been wearing deodorant since they were 7 and I remember my third grade teacher telling us all that we needed to start wearing it. My girls DEFINATELY need it. We would be in the car and I could smell them from the front seat...

    Too lazy to post three different threads....

    Seriously, stay away from Limewire. Any time we have had computer trouble (there are 4 of us in the family with a computer) the first question I get is "were you on Limewire?". Apparently you are more likely to catch a virus on that site than you are in a preschool classroom.

    Anyone get the email from Beachbody re: new Shaun T workouts??

    Someone mentioned that the TV show is probably an infomercial, so don't get too excited about that one. The man needs to make new workouts and fast. I'm addicted.

    Comfy bra suggestions

    Hi All, Well, with the carefree days of a braless summer coming to an end, I'm dreading the fall wardrobe which doesn't include tank tops with built in bras. I'm determined to find a bra this year that I don't hate wearing. Any suggestions? I'm small and don't need support, but do need...

    I Have Book Recs. Anyone Else?

    I read Potato Peel Pie Society also. I enjoyed it too. The Help really stuck with me in terms of entering people's lives. I really was sitting in traffic one Saturday and thinking "Oh, I wonder who Hilly is after today" And I had to do a double take and remember that I don't even know...

    I Have Book Recs. Anyone Else?

    Ohhh, good point. You are right! One person in my bookclub didn't read it because she did a paper on it in college and didn't want to read it again. I was afraid that if I had read it at a younger age, I would feel the way she does. But now I can see what a mistake that would be. Maybe I...

    I Have Book Recs. Anyone Else?

    Okay, if we're going in that direction, I have to add Is your Mama a Llama and Skippy John Jones (the person who wrote this can not possibly be sane). As for adult books, I just finished The Help and really liked the characters. It's a very easy read. I found myself thinking about the...

    Lets Get Insanity Mon, 8/10

    Hi, I posted this on VF, but I wanted to let you all know that I started the recovery week today. I did my Fit Test and then did Core Cardio and Balance. I really liked the Core Cardio and Balance workout. It's a lot like Pure Cardio in that you do drills but don't repeat them. Many are...

    Sleeping Pills

    When I wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep, I take Xanex. It calms my mind and I get back to sleep. Xanex is something that you can develop a tolerence for and then need an increased dosage. So, I am careful not to use it too often. Sometimes I just have to...

    Going to first new post

    I have the same problem. I always use this function on VF with no problem but it never works for me at this site. I thought maybe something was set up wrong in my account but I haven't taken the time to see if I could figure it out. Maybe someone will help us out here.

    worst insanity move

    The Switch Kicks !!! I can't get through them without stopping. They are the only thing I didn't improve on in my second fit test.

    Cardio Recovery for Insanity

    That's a good question. I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I may just skip it and go on to the second month of workouts. I guess it depends on how much I want to do something different. I don't really take recovery weeks when I'm doing my own rotations. I'll probably just decide when the...

    Cardio Recovery for Insanity

    The first week I did 4DS as add ons (from Fit44's suggestion). Last week I was out of town so I added on extra cardio (did the warm up circuit again at the end). Yesterday was day 1 of week 3 and I did P90X Chest and Back (only the first round). I'm really surprised but I am sore today. I'm...

    Garmin 305 vs 310xt

    I have the Garmin 305 that has the HR moniter and I like seeing my HR during my runs so I know when I'm in my zone and when I'm not pushing myself hard enough. I agree with the comment about it being like wearing a brick on your wrist. But, it's such a fun little device to have anyway. Such a...

    Cardio Recovery for Insanity

    I've done it twice. It's my least favorite. I think doing upper body lifting instead is a fine idea. Especially if your not doing any add-on weights on the non recovery days. I don't necessarily think you have to add weights to make this a good program, it's fine without it. But I know some...
