    Someone please explain

    I am just looking for the best, most efficient workouts in the 45 minutes or so I have each morning. Anyone else out there who is struggling as they get older just to maintain may be able to sympathize. I see the scale moving up and I think about how hard I work in relation to everyone else I...

    Question for those with Heart Rate Monitors:

    Thanks to everyone who answered. Nancy, I don't have a heart rate monitor myself. I am having a harder and harder time every year keeping my weight in check and I want to make sure that I spend the time I do have to work out in a wise manner. I will focus more on kickmax and lomax both of...

    I have only done the Low Impact premix of KM

    Hey Shelly: Since my back is feeling much stronger I feel I can go a little further than the low impact premix. Shall I do the dvd "as is" first? I was looking for a premix that was a little more intense than the low impact but still less time consuming than the full workout. If you say The...

    I have only done the Low Impact premix of KM

    and I am wondering from you more experienced KM users, how much more can I expect if I try to do the kickbox/bootcamp challenge premix. Will it be a night a day difference or just a little more challenging?

    The Worry Wart Thread

    I really find this thread interesting. I do have a question for all you worriers. Do you dislike being around people who don't worry? Does it drive you crazy? I have a sneaking suspicion that is the case and am very curious to see if that is true!

    The Worry Wart Thread

    Wow you ladies remind me of my dh, he is the worrier in my family. I think it is an unwritten law that if one is not a worrier, the other one has to be! My husband says he worries for two reasons: one because his mom was a worrier and two, because he grew up poor and never wants to be poor...

    Bean salad

    I just brought this one to a potluck at work and people liked it. One lady even asked for the recipe. I hadn't had it for a long time, my mom used to make it. This is the first time I added a link, hopefully it works! and just in case you were wondering I would never count this as "clean"...

    texas catheites

    SunnyD: The main reason I live here is because it is one of the few affordable (if there is such a thing anymore) places to live that is nice. It has it's downfalls, it can be very hot. I live in the suburbs outside of Dallas and like it very much. We have a nice 2100 square foot home...

    What do you think about ex-gf's or ex'es in general?

    My husband has no children with his ex and he has been emailed twice by her for no "real" reason. It bothers me but since he doesn't want anything to do with her and she is thousands of miles away I dont really worry about it. It all depends on the situation. Like you said if kids are...

    Has anyone tried Tari Rose Hardbody yoga?

    What did you think of it? Could it replace one full body workout per week? Paula

    Best way to strengthen lower back

    Well Valerie, I know I must sound like a broken record but what I have learned through all this is to listen to what my body is telling me. Of course, it goes without saying you need to not do anything your doctor says not to do. What helped me was a chiropractor that did spinal decompression...

    What's up!!:)

    Hi JDoll. I don't know you but it's nice to meet another texan Catheite! My son is in the Marines, I just saw him graduate boot camp in April out in San Diego, I am so proud of him. He is in school in Pensacola right now. I will be thinking positive thoughts of safety for your Marine too...

    Best way to strengthen lower back

    Valerie: I ordered muscle max back in December and I was so excited. Well before I actually got it my back went out (slipped disc) and I couldn't do it, or much of anything else for that matter. It was hard for me to even get up out of my chair! But it did heal (with one relapse) and now I...

    Celebrities you love to hate

    I can't think of much good to say about todays celebrities, mostly cause I don't watch TV or Movies much as they are usually so bad! I must say the celebrity I do look up to (talk about showin my age) is Sophia Loren. She was always sexy but always a lady, had her kids later in life, took...

    I feel old!

    I'm 48, going to be 49 (eek!) on Friday and I still go out dancing occasionally. I love it, my DH doesn't. He will go with me sometimes, but I must say I have more fun with my (few) wonderful friends. One is 36 and one is 51 and they both love to boogie! We might as well have fun as this is...

    Pyramids!!

    Love2workhard: Pyramids was my second Cathe weight tape after MuscleMax. I love it too. I just recently had to go out and buy 15 and 20 lb dumbells. When I started the heaviest I used was 12. It is fun to see progression. Good Luck to you! Paula...

    Situps vs. Abdominoplasty

    Sher: I have had four kids and it just takes a while. I did lots of cardio before I noticed really good results. I would say my youngest was about 4 years old when I really got back into shape. I think as long as you're not expecting a perfectly flat stomache you will get good results...
