Lisa, THAT is an excellent point! They are only one week away from each other this year. I mean, nooo . . . :D

DirtDiva and Natasha, you are going to LOVE DrillMax! One of my all time favorites; talk about a sweat fest! -Stephanie

Oh no, DirtDiva, you are an enabler. :) It is good to hear the reviews - I was thinking about both, but was trying to limit myself to one. But it is my birthday . . . you know, in May, 4 months from now.:p

Can't wait! If I was a dog, I would totally be wagging my tail!!

Jill - Thanks for the encouragement on B&G. I am trying to decide between that one and Muscle Max; they both look really good, but i think you have swayed me to B&G! :D

As pp mentioned, it might help if you tell us more about your goals. I love both HIIT and Intensity. HIIT has three 30 minute workouts; all are tough interval style workouts. HIIT is great for interval training, for getting in a great cardio workout in a short amount of time and the fact...

Sign me up!!!:eek: I just got Cathe's Newsletter announcing the two new videos Cross Fire and To the Max and I am SO excited!! Woo-hoo!!! So soon after the LIS release - we Cathletes are so spoiled! (not that I am complaining, we are saying Thanks Cathe!) Now I just have to figure out...

These are all such great idea - you guys are so creative. I am going to try a trunk or ottoman for storage, and then maybe something smaller on wheels I can roll out from under the bed. I also really like the hooks on the "coat rack" for hanging bands, vest, etc. I never would have thought of...

Thanks for the ideas, guys! Natashe & Erin, I am liking the idea of an ottoman or trunk - I never really thought of something like that, and that could be something that a) I could get sturdy enough so my two year old doesn't decide to get into it and b) will still look decent in the living...

JT & molasses, after reading your reviews here, I decided to get 4DS! I had been eyeballing it for awhile and your statements helped me make the plunge - and I am so glad I did! It is freaking awesome - I love both step routines, love the boot camp, and being able to get in both aerobics and...

:eek:Lucia A - this is an awesome list! Wow! I never knew the difference on the numbers for the CIA videos - I guess I always thought they had to do with the year they are released, so that is really good to know. It made me think, Susan, I should have posted this link...

I second the Amy Bento and Seasun Zieger recommendations - they are both great and a lot of fun! Try Seasun Z's latest, Z-fit Super Step; it is a ton of fun. With Amy Bento, I really like her first one Advanced Step Challenge, and it is a great intro to Amy's step.

The thread about workout space got me to thinking . . . do any of you have any good ideas for storing your workout gear in a relatively small space? I am thinking of something specifically for dumbbells and weights? I am getting tired of pulling out all my dumbbells from the closet and then...

OMG, JeanneMarie I am just in awe of your workout space!! If I was looking to buy a house and walked into a room like that I would be signing the paper work so fast it would make DH's head spin. :eek:!! Seriously, that is just awesome! I am not even going to post my workout space because it...

Yeah, it is a bit of a tome.:rolleyes: But she really gives some great ideas for veggies and grains. Once you work through a couple of her recipes it is easy for you to incorporate shortcuts to make them go a little quicker. Also, note her sections on the sidebars for "fix once, eat twice" (or...

I wanted to pop in here and say that I really like King Arthur's whole wheat sandwich bread recipe - 100% Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread: King Arthur Flour. I usually make the dough in the bread machine and then bake it in the oven. It always turns out moist and fluffy. Now if only I could find...

Let's see, the 6 inch is the step and 2 risers, right? I always do Amy or Seasun on just one riser; with the choreography I just worry too much about twisting an ankle. As a note, for Amy's ASC2, there is a move in there called the hip-hop stick that I just about kill myself on every time. I...

Score, I am glad your library had Dragonwagon. It is a huge book, so it can look overwhelming. Hopefully you will find a couple of recipes in there that suit you. Some of hers can look complicated simply because her ingredients lists look long - but a lot of that is often just different veggies...

I am going to recommend two vegetarian cookbooks, because that is what I use the most, so they may not have all you need but definitely fit the plant-based option, as well as clean eating since they emphasize whole ingredients. The first is "Passionate Vegetarian" by Crescent Dragonwagon. I...

Susan - I totally know what you mean about wasting a work out slot. I hate previewing, etc, trying to get the moves down, when I really just want to be WORKING OUT. :eek: I don't know if you do Netflix, but you can try out Christi Taylor with them to see what you think (they have both...
