    My DH the Total Dodo Bird

    This is SO funny!! On the rare occasions that I send my DH to the store he is so afraid of getting the wrong thing that he calls me from the store to double check with me. If, for some reason, he can't reach me then he gets one of each item! Poor guy! I think I scared him once when...

    Are you a fitness snob?

    I bought a fitness magazine the other day that I hadn't ever seen before. It's called OnFitness. This excerpt from a commentary sums it up pretty well for me: "Another motivator for training regularly is the answer to the question, "What happens if we don't?" Look around, and without being...

    Belated thanks are in order for the b'day well wishes. My brother took my family out for dinner to celebrate. A I mentioned on another thread, I ate like a refugee. When I heard my DH tell my SIL that I would punish myself with a long workout today I had to set him straight by telling him...

    Anyone see T2 on Saturday night?

    I don't recall how Linda Hamilton looked in T2 but in the pictures I've seen of LauraMax, she looks like a fit and healthy body builder who showcases her hard work well.

    Imax 2 vs Imax 3

    I'm sort of late chiming in here but here goes: Of course, eventually, you should own both IMAX2 and IMAX3 but until then I would go for IMAX2. Besides IMAX2 being one of Cathe's all time best step workouts Cardio and Weights is not a bad workout at all. I've been concentrating on lifting...

    Freestyle rotations

    Well that's just perfect Carole! Here I was trying to fit in 60 minute leg workouts 4 or 5 times a week. Would you say then that you spend about 30 to 45 minutes a day on legs?

    Thinking about loosening up (long)

    "My list of disliked foods includes liver, headcheese and perhaps a few other organ meats, and that's it. " LOL!!! I think you are saying that life is short so why deny yourself something you love if it ain't gonna kill ya. My DH has that attitude. I am verrrrrry strict with my...

    Freestyle rotations

    Hi Carole! By doing Cathe floor work 2 times a week do you mean that (for instance) you do the floor work from GS one day and the floor work from Legs and Glutes another? And then perhaps the standing work from both of those on 2 other days? Then finally wrapping it up with a day of the...

    p90x and Turbo Jam

    I have the entire P90X series but must admit that I haven't worked a rotation into my fitness regime yet. However, I do Ab RipperX one of the three or four times a week I work core. It's awesome and it delivers results you can see in as little 10 workouts. Oops, that's the FIRM's line. Well...

    What's wrong with me?????????

    OK. The first impression I got was this: "YOU DO NOT LIKE NURSING AND YOU DO NOT WANT TO DO IT FOR A LIVING!" Is that correct? If it is, are you really a failure if you acknowdedge that and change course?
