Here is a pic of me using the approach I said above. I wanted to try for as much ab definition as I could, because I'm NOT genetically blessed in that dept. Overall, I was pleased with what I learned about abs training. I'm circled. Sorry for the closed eyes. HA!

I echo what Lisa said. Additionally, I work abs 1-2x week, with one of those days being weighted. When I do what I call my "ab trifecta" I get killer ab DOMS that, without fail, last at least 4 days. It's brutal but SO fun. HA.

Hey Swimmer? You should ask for a referral fee. I just ordered Lastics as well. LOL.

You know what else is almost better than a foam roller? A good old fashioned rolling pin - the kind your grandma had, with the handles. Not the ones today that are a solid piece of wood. If you lie down on the floor and put your leg in the air, use that rolling pin up and down the ham. Helps a...

I don't want to sidetrack your thread, but this cereal thing is HUGE! This is my trainer's blog. If you scroll down to where she talks about the difference between Kellogg's Mueslix and Fruity Pebbles, it's fascinating. And deceiving! A lower portion size with a ton more calories and oodles more...

Hi firemedic. Clearly I'm not Cathe, but I shared this a while ago after seeing this great advice from a site called Metabolic Effect. Not trying to step on Cathe's toes at all, and she might have different thoughts, but the folks at ME were quite straight forward on this question, with their...

CAT!! We clearly must not deserve to call ourselves Cathletes! :p We don't work hard enough to show the secret decoder message. Waaaaahhhhh. Yah - I know, right? I tried AGAIN this a.m. with CLB and no message. But I know it's there. We just s--k.

Cathe or Chris: X Train Tee shirt - Page 2 - The Cathe Nation ?????

I'm going to post this in Ask Cathe.

Miss Fit Fairy I think you must be on to something re: heat. Today I wore my shirt UNDER a long sleeve shirt to spin class. Again, dripping with sweat, no logo. Washed it - no logo. Then, I followed your suggestion and grabbed a rag. I used regular hot tap water, put it on top of where the logo...

Thanks my dear! I will look for that shampoo and try it. I have always had yeast issues, but really had it iunder control for a long while now with my oil of oregano and drinking my apple cider vinegar. <sigh> They gave me Xolegel and have me on something called Doxycycline Hyclate. Ick ick ick.

I dunno Cat. I was COOKING in the spin class. No, not like 140 degrees, but still... I'll try the hot cloth thing, but if that's the case then perhaps they shouldn't say sweat activated. Weird.????????????

Thanks Cat. It's under my nose and down the side of my mouth to my chin. WEIRD. Slowly getting a bit better - am on antibiotics for a MONTH and a gel that is flammable! EEEK! What causes it - do you know?

Never been disappointed in anything Cathe --- until now. This is a fail IMO. Didn't show in a trenched-in-sweat Intensity workout, or a wring-it-out spin ride, or even out of the wash.:confused::(

Thanks SO much. Appreciate the info.

Hello fit friends. I promised to periodically post updates from my little experiment incorporating seated good mornings and Cathe's 100 hip thrust challenge, but going heavy, in an effort to strengthen the back chain muscles and help me lift heavier. I am inching closer to my stated goals and I...

I believe that we each have different things that work with our own body chemistry. I started doing this after dealing with a bleeding ulcer last year that had me the recipient of 2 blood transfusions. Healthy, healthy me. My ulcer came from a bacteria (h. pylori) and curiously my doctor...

I'd suggest not mixing it in with anything - it will definitely kill the taste. (I also take liquid ionic minerals, and these are the same - never put 'em in anything - HA!) Tips for the vinegar: I dilute mine in ICE cold water, add a smidge of sweetener - I use organic raw blue agave - and...

I'd like to thank you for making my point. Thanks all.

Yep. Pauline Nordin (yes, I know she's a leeeeetle crazy) says before every meal - and that's 5-6x day. I can't really do it that often. HA!
