i think i read in another thread someone mentioned getting good results using slim in 6. i have it but it's sooooo boring that it is hard to get through the 6 weeks. i couldn't take it after one week and stopped, horrible music too. if you can get past the boredom and music, i think you will...

i have the intensity series and like it very much. imax2 is pure step, straight forward choreography, it consists of a number of basic step routines followed by intensity blasts. cardio and weights is a full body circuit routine of 4 or 5 segments of step followed by a weight training segment...

I love IMAX2. It's all step, simple choreography, and the music is very motivating. You'll do several circuits of basic step routines followed by intensity blasts (some plyometrics). It's around 50 minutes and you'll sweat. A great cardio workout. I don't have Body Max, but I'm sure it's...

i buy all different blends of teas and sweeten it with rock cane sugar. now that the cold weather is here i'm using spicier blends blends with Mate and white chai tea. i also like vitamin water, so many different flavors to choose from (not as healthy as tea though).

i used only dumbells for sts and got great results. buy a weighted vest, weighted gloves, and increase the poundage as you go along. i bought 15, 20 and 25lb weights. it may be cheaper (and save space) to buy an adjustable speed pack up to 25lbs. i saw them in target (reebok brand). good...

i have experience with the hair falling out thing. out of desperation, i recently went to a doctor to have my thyroid tested which i felt was a waste of time because my reflexes are excellent. to my shock she said it was probably due to recent weight loss. she said that i was losing fat too...

cruelty to farm animals raised for leather. they also state one type of animal hide exported and swap in other unknown materials. customs caught them doing this and fined all US companies dealing with them for not being aware of their suppliers practices. go customs!

my company last week had another downsizing (the first in Feb) and 2 of the people i knew were let go while they were on vacation (27 years and 10 years with the company). One they got at home and left him a message (it's the only company he ever worked for!). The other they couldn't get on...

do the push ups on your knees with a weighted vest if you have one. this will build up your strength to the point where you can do them on your toes. this worked for me, i used a 10 lb. vest.

Jonahnah - you and your family are in my prayers. so sorry for your loss.

"Never argue with a stupid or mean person, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience." just thought i'd throw this out here. of course, everyone thinks the other guy is at fault when you're fighting and wanting to beat the other to a pulp into the ground. you...

send them a written letter (certified/return receipt) explaining how many times you've called, your disappoinment given the long term relationship (etc) and that you want your tax items returned back to you by a date certain or you will have no other choice but to contact a lawyer. a lawyer...

Wow! What a great achievement, congratulations. Well done. :)

Hi Cathe, I see you had a birthday, Happy Birthday! I hope your boys made you feel real special today. :) My hip has been feeling tight since I started lifting heavier and lately a little sore on one side. I find some of the exercises in the sts extended stretch helpful and was wondering...

thanks for your responses everyone. i was on synthyroid for 10 years before the tests started coming back normal. i was tested last year and everything came back normal again. other than the hair loss, i'm not really exhibiting any symptoms. i have alot of stress in my life right now so i'm...

My hair has been thinning alot and I can identify many factors that may be contributing, however since I started STS it's intensified. In researching, I found out that protein powder can inhibit the absorption of biotin and therefore can accelerate the loss. This is a problem for me because I...

i started with the intensity series because it had a little bit of everything. it has a cardio and weights circuit, bootcamp, split weight pyramid (pyramid upper and pyramid lower), full body endurance weight (muscle endurance) and IMAX2 (step cardio). i found this series a great introduction...

I start Meso 2 tomorrow, I'm scared! Also, I've been so exhausted during this week of rest between Mesocyles! I'm thinking I might have done too much cardio during the first Meso that I've burned myself out...hoping it's just from the change in weather. :(

congratulations to Patsy! what good fortune for her to find a loving home, you will have a loyal friend for life. thanks for rescuing her and i wish you all the best.

Debbie. How awful. My mom had a sinus infection a number of years ago and was in excrutiating pain, also to the point of tears. She had it for several weeks and I remember she had alot of pain around her eyes and cheeks. She also felt that something else must be wrong because she couldn't...
