Meso cycle 1 sounds cool...I aspire to getting it at some point, but I've got 2, and I'm gonna get the new low impacts, and I've spent rather a lot of money this month...so I need to hold off. I really like High Reps too. =) Today I went to yoga class. Had a good class, but I had to baby my...

My shoulders are pretty inflexible too, but with regular yoga classes and practice in general, I'm noticing improvement, which is encouraging. There are people in the classes I go to, though, and of course the instructors, who can forward fold over, clasp their hands behind their backs, and get...

Hello! I need to get a new pair of workout shoes and noticed you've mentioned ryka transitions were used for the new workouts. On the website they're listed as studio shoes. Would these be recommended for working out on a carpeted surface, too? Thanks =)

Oh cool, I'm not the only uber-nerd; I read them in German, lol. It's a great way to keep your second (and for you third, even!) language happening and have fun, too. Much better than reading the German grammar books from back in the undergrad days! Graduate school really can suck a lot (all)...

Hello! No workout yet today. My big toe on my right food is sore, so I'll probably not do cardio, which was my original plan. Also I think it's time for new workout shoes, so I'll go shopping later. I was thinking of getting Rykas. Yesterday I went to bar class, although I had to modify a...

Sunday is my off-day. Yesterday was yoga class, and Friday was Legs and Glutes and the abs from High Reps.

Today was yoga class. Yesterday I did timesaver GS chest/tris and the LIS cardio.

Today was Barworks class and I think the teacher took a crazy pill. My butt and thighs have pretty much been destroyed. I think tomorrow I'll stay in bed all day and cry.

I didn't know #3...that's cool! So is it exclusively those large groups that stimulate this growth hormone, or is it just that the large groups stimulate more of it? I was thinking something similar to what you put in your second point...in a split routine you're probably using heavier...

Today's workout was the timesaver premix from GS back, shoulders, bis, then stability ball abs from Butts and Guts, and then 20 min of yoga on my own.

That would be a cool thing to have in a workout room! We rent, so prob not something I could do now, but it would be awesome. Did you end up doing the yoga/stretch? If so, hope it helped you loosen up the soreness! Today was gym style legs for me.

Diane Sue, I didn't know you could get a home TRX set-up. My friend takes a TRX class at her local gym (far from me!) and it sounds great; I'm so jealous! I know there are things you can hook up from your door, but I've never looked into them as it sounds overly cumbersome and contrived. I've...

Debbie, TTOM definitely has a way of sapping your energy. I loathe it. Men are so lucky they don't have to deal with it. I just finished my workout, yay! It is early by my standards. I did the push/pull premix of GS chest and tris, then combos 1-4 of Tracey's High Intensity Step Mix 2, then...

High Reps is a great workout! Today was yoga class, and then when I got home I did the abs from Hi/Lo Med Ball and some additional stretching.

He had the fever and chills. What's weird is he feels fine today. I'm glad he feels better, of course, I just thought flus generally stuck around a bit longer. He seems to have been coming down with something off and on for a little while. I hope this is the last of it.

I haven't done Core Max for a while, either. I should, though...they are tough workouts. I've been wanting lowmax for a while, too, but since hubby and I are going to Ireland soon, I'm trying to be a bit frugal. Today I went to barworks class and then did the intervals from Amy's Hi/Lo...

I was going to say my husband's feeling exactly like you, but I think he has the flu vs a spider bite. Did you have any sort of visible wound or red mark or anything?

Hope everyone had a great 4th! My workout was the timesaver premix from GS back, shoulders, biceps, then the abs section from Amy's All Pump Xtreme, then some yoga asanas on my own.

Today was yoga class. Had a good class and even learned a new asana. Diane, yeah, the interval premix is good. I generally do either the combo premix (about half an hour or so worth) or the interval premix because my endurance is not good enough for the whole thing!

Hello =) I can't remember if I checked in on Monday or not, so I'll just post my week: Monday--about half of Tracey's Core Strength and Conditioning and Rainbeau Mars' Pure Power (appx 35 minutes of yoga) Tuesday--Bar class...I really like these Wednesday--upper body push/pull...
