    Health eating concerns at Dunkin Donuts???????

    That is the truth. If you tell them there is a hint of calcium in their cream donut it will justify eating a dozen. I was really suprised to hear anyone ask about vitamins in a donut and follow it by thinking - no wonder so many Americans are unhealthy (in the papers today). If you convince...

    Health eating concerns at Dunkin Donuts???????

    I was standing in line at the DD and a long line it was. This has happened before which is why I am writing this. There are a few larger ladies at the counter actually asking these questions to the dd staff.... Which donuts have the most amount of vitamins? What fruity shake drinks have the...

    The Firm

    I didn't know the sisters split. I just knew that one day someone else owned them, didn't know of the story. What happened? I do know that one of them has started a new workout series. They use some of the old instrutors from the original and I think they use Susan Harris and Tracy Long too. I...

    Another Firm ?

    The Firm used to be good for me. I have the originals from Susan Harris on up. They were tough and did not hold back. When the Firm was later sold the workouts were easier. The instructors did not have the pizazz that Susan and the originals had and I found them boring. The step went from a...

    Are Today's Weddings All About The Money??

    Just to add on this wedding I will attend - the wedding where friends collected enough money to pay for the couples honeymoon but were not invited to the reception....(because that would cost the bride n groom more money that they cannot afford). The bride also has nine or ten bridesmaids. She...

    The Firm

    Speaking of the The Firm, I used to be an avid user. I love their original series that filmed in Carolina in the eighties and nineties ... most anyway. The ones I loved were with Susan Harris/Tracy Long and two others that I forgot there name as well as Pam Cauther. Now Pam is Pam Meriweather...

    Are Today's Weddings All About The Money??

    Thats going really low and desperate for money. If money is such an issue than to save money and keep your pride as a young married couple I would elope. I thought a friend of mine was desperate. On her wedding invite she asked for money as a gift instead of a gift. She wrote on this card...

    What vitamins do you take?

    Just curious. Every morning (that I can remember) I take calcium with d/multivitiam and one for the joints.

    Leg Press

    I would use whatever you can use without agrivation and yes it will still be beneficial. I went through a period during my Firm days where I couldn't use the 14inch step. My knees would hurt so I did the workouts on the smaller 6 inch one instead. Since there was such a big difference I was...

    How can I be a video girl?

    I think most workout videos are done that way. The other workouts I do, I know the lead will introduce the participants as either members or fellow instrutors. I remember the old Firm tapes and reading in a book that the 'class' was made up of both real members of the Firm gym (in Carolina) and...

    VH 1'S Surreal life

    Yes that one with Janice and Omarosa was a good one - just for the fights and Peter Brady - what a bod! He does infomericals now for the ab lounge. The skid mark episode - that was pretty nasty! I wonder if that poor guy ever watched himself on tv and died of shame! Well you should try to...

    VH 1'S Surreal life

    I saw a post for A.I. and thought I would post this. I am not a reality show lover but watch surreal life....This time around I am sort of hooked on the antics of Tawney Kittean and her little anger problem (which I had learned about on E's THS) and her row with Florance Henderson (Carol Brady...

    cellulite

    I am glad to read this. I sort of gave up hope in some areas - esp when sometime ago I had seen a world elite gymnast with cellulite on her legs!! Meanwhile since I started using the Cathe tapes/dvd I can feel muscle used that really never got a good workout before - esp on the high step. I...

    Rotation - does it matter???

    I tend to favour workouts that targets the lower and the upper body with abs and if I have time - something cardio. Is it best (now that I am mainly using Cathe workouts from now on) to follow a rota??? If so, what would be suggested? I have used the Firm for years...Want to really shape up...

    How many 'risers' do you all use?

    I think I may add another riser to the high step. Anyone off the top of their head know what workouts cater around the high step? I have a few step workouts now that I just bought - but I wanted to add a few high step workouts...and which ones are more intense??

    Just curious. I use just one riser on the large step and I just added another riser (making it 5) to the mini step.

    Any personal trainers here?

    First , don't let age be a factor... I was certified with aafa but let it expire and never used it anyway.... the course had quite a variety of people trying to get cert. as a pt. There was a fifty year old woman who did work in a gym for a short while and decided to become a pt. There was...
