>Anyone doing chinups today? Nope..that would be overtraining!!!:7 :P :P :P :P (I love that concept!) I'm still debating what to do with the ladies tonight...any suggestions? I'm still jealous of Joanne, Catherine, and Sooooooooooooosan as they got to go to Cathe's gym;-) ;-) ...

Just saw your note about your dog Catherine. I hope she is doing well. Also...getting pinned under your weight. I'm sorry..I'm giggling here. Glad to hear your using heavy weights:7 :7 :7 :7 . And ALSO dh feels like a hero now!!!!;) ;) ;) Won't be worrying about you using too light of...

IT'S NOT GETTING LOST IN THE SHUFFLE. I'm glad you started another thread. I was getting worried about you!! We haven't had more snow as of real recently. Missed us too. Catherine's article was great...motivated me again! I'm sore today, but did go down to do a set of heavy squats and...

>Briee, thanks for giving me an excuse to spend more $$$ }( :+ Speaking of spending more money....I now NEED to be able to move up incrementally with my weight (thanks to Cathe}(). I refuse to pay the cost for those platemate, pacemate things - WHY DO THEY COST SO MUCH! I'm looking for a...

>My problem lies in my pullups. Yesterday I could only do sets of 2s and 1s. Sorry, sorry, sorry. I didn't catch that earlier. Okay...so I think the bands WOULD help you for the pullups - VERY much so. Sometimes even just a touch of help helps. Get those bands!! (but again, I find that...

Hi Joanne, Marcy and Catherine (and anyone else who may decide to have fun with the chinners today:7 ). >the iron woody bands to help with my pullups. You may like these for easier days, but Catherine your reps are high enough that you are probably beyond these. I think they are AWESOME...

>Maybe I should add some ankle wt on and see what that does???? I want to spend a few weeks just doing the 5 sets of 5 and then I'll add weight. I've done that in the past and it's tough, but REALLY good to go to the next step. I've strapped on 20# and get one rep, sometimes 2. (I'm NOT...

Forgot to add - most importantly - remember to squeeze your glutes. I'm having a hard time concentrating on doing this while chinnin, but it seems to help take my mind off my sore arms/back and places it in another spot and DOES give an edge of strength. Just finished the last 5 pulls, total...

Due to Catherines recent post on tips for pullups...I am chinning with a purpose now. If I do nothing else...I'm going to do my 3 days per week of 25 chins. Total 75 per week. Please keep me diligent Catherine. The reason this article helped me SO much is that mentally I was trying to go...

I'm doin great AJ and its so good to see ya still posting!! I'm only here once in a blue moon except for the chinnin site which the few of us keep going. (JMFRANE being a faithful fellow chinner - she's doin chins now isn't that awesome!) I still have your workout posted on my wall and...

Hey I just got an email from Tony Horton entitled...."get the body you want in 10 minutes". Am I wrong in thinking that we would all be walking around looking like Cathe if this was true. Or do we just enjoy being the way we are (which we should to some extent). OR IS HE LYING? (am I the...

I think we need a new thread:7 :7

Catherine....that is really a great article. I need to get back at this! At first I read it as 75 per session - HOLY COW - this is ambitious. But then realized that this is weekly reps. We can do this Catherine. I need an accountability partner. I WANT to do this. VERY GOOD ARTICLE GUYS...

So AJ...I know this is jumping the gun(which never fired a shot), but are you planning on doing it as laid out? Giving it a serious shot? I want a complete rundown of your results using the STS verses your current workout if possible. Glad you caved, I thinks its a program like no other...

Oh no....you can't believe what I just did. I emailed Soosan too (before I saw your post!!!! Great minds think alike?;) ;) ) I guess I'll be getting it back too huh. I'll go check. I'm so bummed. Is there anyway we can get ahold of her? Marcy, I'm happy for you too!! Hope all goes...

>The workout room sounds great!! What MAJOR w/o did you do :P I DIDN'T GET TO USE IT!!!! DOESN'T THAT MAKE YA SICK!!! NOTHING, NOT A SINGLE THING. Now if I was a bad mom I would have let the 4-5 year old play in the pool alone and used the workout room (and don't think that thought didn't...

You guys are truly motivating me to get back to chins. I've had elbow pain on and off for weeks and have avoided them quite a bit. Awesome work all of you!! We just got back from the waterpark mini vacation and I'm TIRED. Was going to snowboard, but didn't get a chance to and hill turned...

I'm telling! The blog looks to good to be true. I can soon quit raving about the P90X and possibly get back to being a Cathe monogomist. "I can't wait" is an understatement. Briee

Hey you guys!!!! Okay, before I do anything..I better go check out that blog that you mentioned a million times up there - must be REALLY exciting! Have been doing well with workouts and yes lots of snowboarding. Went again last night and am going tomorrow night as well. I'm having more...

No chins today, my shoulders are sore from yesterday. I did LL and forgot to add that I did heavy squats yesterday. Not as heavy as yours Catherine. I did 3 sets of 8 with a 90# bar. YES the squat rack is WONDERFUL!! (I need to finish the ab workout from the new P90X+). Going...
