I bought Vibram 5 fingers last month and love them!!! I simply go barefoot when doing Cathe's weight workouts, but with cardio, I wear the five fingers. I also wear them when running on the treadmill and outdoors. The only workouts I use normal shoes for are the Hiit workouts and...

I did Fusion today and LOVED IT! I loved the last combo where we have to punch the floor twice and then jump and smash "our opponent" with our elbow! I was totally pretending that someone was on the floor and I was beating them up. That relieved a lot of pent up stress! I think this will def...

Michelle (Miss Lee), do you live in Cinci? I do and plan on doing the Flying Pig half marathon this year (if I don't have to work that weekend). Maybe just the 10K...I haven't quite decided yet. Becky

Hi ladies. Today was a 45 minute outdoor run. I am loving this weather! I know that I only have a few days left of exercising during hours when the sun is out, so I am trying to get some outdoor time in...but I might have to cool it for a day or two for my knees sake. I have planned B&G...

Hi ladies. I am not sure when I posted last. Yesterday I did a 40 min run and then segment 3 of 30 Day Shred. Today I did MuscleMax. Now I know why my smaller clothes fit me even though I weigh more that I did when I used to be this size: I have more muscle. Granted, I am not as small...

This is going to sound odd, but it works! (even for hospice patients who are full of pain medicines that slow down the system) Take vaseline, roll into pea sized balls, coat with sugar (or sugar substitute if you wish) and freeze. Once frozen, eat 2-3 as much as 6 times a day. How many you...

I agree with PP. She needs to put you up in a hotel until this gets taken care of. It is not safe to live without running water.

Hi ladies. Woke up early this AM when the dog started whining to go to the bathroom. Ended up staying up and working out super early. I got in High Step Challenge. Good stuff. Kate, that show was super sad, but I think it is good to have on there. I totally doesn't romanticize getting...

A post from Newsweek on Twitter tweaked my interest about "16 and Pregnant", a new show on MTV. I am watching it right now and feel really sad for the babies. They are the ones who are suffering. So sad. I'm watching these teenage parents try to do it on their own, fighting and threatening...

There are no quick fixes in life. Please don't try this. It will make your heart race and raise your blood pressure.

I know that Obama's plan focuses some on primary care and prevention. This will increase life expectancy. The US has the best "disease" care in the world, but we are REALLY low when it comes to "health" care. Focusing on primary care and prevention will help us a lot. I do disagree with...

Hi ladies. Back is better today...still a bit off but much better. I ended up doing some mild yoga stretches for the lower back yesterday and that helped. Today I did a 35 minute wonderful outdoor run followed by segment 1 of Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. I may try to get some more yoga in...

It sounds like her doctor has warned her to not exercise. There are many conditions, especially in early pregnancy, that warrant little to no exercise. One such instance is a subchorionic hematoma. In an instance such as this, exercise can shear the pregnancy away from the uterus causing a...

Hi ladies. I am back from that wedding in Florida. It was really nice. Zoey was the flowergirl (well, I held her in her pretty dress as I walked down the aisle as a bridesmaid). She was super good. Didn't make a noise the entire ceremony. I did workout yesterday. I did STS disc 35...

Hi ladies. Today was CTX All Step and then I did a bit of housework (but not enough to count as a workout). Tomorrow evening we leave for Florida. We decided to drive through the night to make the trip easier for Zoey (and also for us). Stephanie, I know what you mean about AF. I just...

Hi ladies! I had intended to get in a CTX today, but ended up at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles all morning getting our Ohio drivers licenses (should have done that 2 weeks ago) and then did landscaping/housework all day. I think landscaping (mowing grass, pulling weeds, fixing the slope that...

I used the baby bandit. (I think that's what it is called). I bought 2 and even though I'd wear one for a day and then wash it while wearing the other, I still got a yeasty infection thing on my skin from it! I didn't like how hot it made me feel (and I gave birth in January). I probably...

I am so bad about posting!!! I have been working out though. Yesterday I did CTX Power Circuits (I think that's what its called) and today I did CTX Step and Intervals. I think I'll just do CTX this week. I really like the rotation Cathe put up though. Might start that one next week when...

Oh, and the workout room. Here's a web address of some pics of the house: http://mcgilligan.us/wp/wpg2?g2_itemId=5092&g2_page=5 You can go to other pages too and see other house pics, med school graduation pics, etc if you want, but the workout room is on that page 5. That's my little...

Okay, ladies I've been MIA again! I can't seem to get on a schedule post-move...might have something to do with all of the crazy events going on right now. There was med school graduation on the 16th and the drive to Florida before and after that, along with my little brother's high school...
