    Nutrition-focused message board?

    A friend of mine is looking for a nutrition/healthy eating/vitamin focused message board. Does anyone have some good sites for this? Thanks! =)

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Wed June 1

    What a great Mom's day prezzie, Diane Sue! Sounds like so much fun. =) I'm getting back into workouts now but I had to take a few days off last week due to majorly tweaking my back...well, maybe it wasn't that major since I only had to take three days off, but it sure hurt like heck and I...

    Oh, dear...I've been playing too much WoW...I thought of something else entirely when I saw "gear score".

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Thurs May 26

    Yesterday I tried something I hadn't done for a while, Functional Strength, which is one of Tracey Long's workouts and several years old. It was fine but I felt a little blah after around 30 minutes, so then I did some biceps and tricep dips/pushups on my own and then put in Cathe's CCC and did...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Tues May 24

    Toradoes are crazy...it's hard to believe all the destruction that can be so quickly wrought...I'm sure I'd be completely floored to witness the aftermath in person. None of that here in California but I guess our thing is the earthquakes. Today's workout was a new class, "Bar Works". It was...

    I have to lure Hermia into the other room with treats when I workout. It's just impossible to get anything done with her there because the second I start a workout, she feels she needs to be no further than six inches away from me. She'll come and lie down right in the middle of the floor or try...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Sun May 22

    Today I did STS disc 24 and the 5 min plank section from Tracey's ...I think it's called Core Blast or something along those lines. I really need to work on core stuff. I remember finding that section pretty easy and today I did not...while it was too short to call really tough, I wouldn't call...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Fri. May 20

    Yesterday was yoga class...I was already sore in my upper body from sts the day before and then I became even more sore after all the chaturangas. Today is a rest day although I may do some abs later and maybe some stretching.

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Wed May 18

    Just finished STS disc 22 a bit ago. I quite like that one...it was a bit shorter but lots of burning and I couldn't finish all the reps several times. I guess that means I didn't pick quite the right weight, but I guess a touch heavy is better than a bit too light.

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Tues May 17

    Hello! Today was a yoga class, level 2, 55 minutes. Yesterday was the kickboxing and abs in 4DS, although something seems to be wrong with my dvd...Cathe's voice was a bit ahead of the action in the dvd. It was a bit disconcerting but not too bad. =( Oh yes, I did a bit of bis and back too...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Thurs May 12

    I have no yard to work on as you guys do...I cannot imagine how I would get that done. I realllly need to catch up on housework. I'll be doing that this weekend. Things will be much lighter work-wise this summer (a good and bad thing), but during the school year it seems so hard to get more than...

    I didn't end up working out yesterday. For today, though, I went to yoga class and then did the abs from High Reps when I got home.

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Mon May 9

    I hope you don't have strep, Diane Sue, although as much as you're around the grandkids, I'm sure it's not unusual to get something from them when it's going around! No workout yet for me today, but yesterday was STS disc 18.

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Sat May 7

    Hi everyone! Today is a rest day for me. We went to a Renaissance faire with some friends and had a great time, and now I"m back at home. There were all sorts of meaty dishes there but I had a vegetarian gyro...healthy by ren faire standards, I think. Also some wine, mead, and cider...less...

    discouraged over lack of phys.improvement after twins...

    I'm not a mom (let alone to recent twins!) but having observed others, I think it's pretty great how much and consistently you're working out. You must have pretty commendable time management skills and discipline. I like the above idea of changing it up with something fun, like a dance class...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniac Hotties for 5/4

    Debbie, where are you living that you get such cold weather at this time of year? We're in the 90s over here in southern California...a little too hot for me and definitely too hot for DH, but it's what one expects here at this time of year! Just finished STS disc 16 and the abs from STS...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Tues May 3

    lol...is 7 hours of sleep a lot for you, Diane Sue? Personally, I was extra sleep-deprived today as I had to be at work half an hour early, but I took a nap after getting back from yoga...which happened between work and nap. Now that my schedule is changing, I'll be able to take this teacher's...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Sun May 1

    okie dokie, so having a rather lazy Sunday, although I just finished STS disc 15. I couldn't do all the back stuff, though...my upper back is feeling tight and a bit sore from yesterday. Whatever the muscle in your upper mid back is called is pretty weak for me, I think. Anyway, after more or...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Sun May 1

    So far no workout yet today, but I dont' get up nearly as early as the rest of you! I'm totally sore from the legs workout a couple days ago. Yesterday I went to yoga class and did not enjoy the warriors and lunges! Does anyone do Tracey Staehle's workouts? I haven't been keeping up on her...
