Janie girl - are you talking about real body building, as in having the "look" of a body builder (I know you said you don't want to compete.) Or more like the look of a women's phisique or figure competitor? There is a HUGE difference in these looks and the approaches to get there. Some of...

When is Amanda's baby due?

Hi all. I love the LIS, but after about 2 weeks of using my gliding discs when the series came out, (yes, way back in the fall) I noticed black fuzzies all over my floor after using them. Checked out the discs, it appeared to be just a little shedding of sorts. It has continued, and tonight...

LOL. Just came to the Cathe boards and this was the first thing I saw: Slide and Glide - hard on Ohmigolly! I wondered if this forum had taken a turn for the worse. SO glad it's about knees.

I love and adore a brutal butt-kicking by Cathe, one that leaves me a sweaty, sucking-for-air blob. When I got the LIS I thought that would be Afterburn. In fact after doing AB the first time I was sure of it. The 2nd time through, I was surprised at how much easier AB felt, and this week...

Mine sticks too. I cleaned it after struggling with the constant pauses the first time through. Now, it doesn't stick as much, but still gets stuck and eventually stops at a few areas. It is frustrating.

Gayle (Banslug) did one earlier this year. She ROCKED it! Have fun.

Either 1/4 cup dry oats or 1/2 an english muffin with enough water to wash it down. I hate being all burpy during morning workouts, so I also cannot do any kind of shake, and I don't like bananas. Those slower digesting carbs help me power through a workout.

Hi Juice. I assume your spin bike has both the cages and the clip pedals for spin/biking shoes? You'll be fine with tennies and the cages, but if you really want to amp it up, there's nothing like a good pair of biking shoes to clip into the bike. When you do that you're fully "connected to" the...

Glute/Ham Machine Hyper Sit-ups - YouTube Do you have access to a glute-ham machine? Not a full video of course, but 4 or five sets of these will have you screaming. Two tips -- 1. Go S-L-O-W. Much MUCH slower than this guy does. I.E. - hang out at the bottom, completely relaxed, then...

6x week. Each day an hour of cardio and an hour of resistance - but not at the same time. And always at different intensities and varied weights. Not every day is SS cardio. Not every day is heavy weights. But you have to do what works for YOU.

Oh now that's something I had never heard Stacy. Higher than beyond a reasonble doubt? What is it in Fla?

The issues of Casey Anthony, her clearly dysfunctional family, and whatever evidence the jury was actually presented with aside, I think more than anything else I was hoping to actually SEE Nancy Grace's head explode when the verdict came in. None of us was in that courtroom and jury box. We...

I also wanted to add that if you study any of the competitors in either women's figure comps (Erin Stern, Nicole Wilkins Lee, Ava Cowan were the top 3 at the Arnold) or the new physique division (look at Dana Linn Bailey - YOWZA) they are far from bulky - just cut, cut, cut. And believe me when...

Hi Mama Deb - thanks for your well wishes. Not sure what days, but it's usually a 6:00a.m. time slot - for an hour. Miss YOU!

If any of you are interested in this, why don't you drop me a p.m. and include your e-mail addy? I'll forward to Melissa (spin instructor) and see if she can small group something. She said so far it's been working great but as I said it's in the early stages. The main reason I like something...

HEY! My AMAZING and most favorite of all instructors I've taken has just started offering a "Spin by Skype." I haven't done it yet since I've just gotten clearance for "light" spin following emergency appendectomy, BUT if any of you want details let me know and I'll get them from her. She is...

Yep, I have to agree with Pinkquinn. If you are prone to carrying excess in your butt and thighs, IMO clean eats and heavy weights are the best thing to tackle the area. It's my problem area too, but with these two things, and time, I've gotten it to where it's manageable. Don't think I'll...

Nancy - where in the Netherlands? We spent a month in Utrecht last summer. The biking there is WILD!!! Originally we were planning on buying bikes and then selling them back before we left (which would have been cheaper than renting) but when we saw how CRAZY the roads are with bikes, we...
