Yesterday we decided to rescue a year and a half (almost) Boston Terrier named Chewie who has had a very rough start in life. He has been abused and has had 3 homes - all within the same "family". The first one was very short-lived. I talked DH into it by telling him that I would do whatever...

Thanks for the responses. Kathryn - I just couldn't stand it anymore, knowing that he was in that house getting beat for trying to play with the babies' toys when they look just like his toys and getting beat for peeing in the basement when he has no way to go outside and they are too busy...

We just took in a male Boston Terrier who is maybe a year and a half and has been abused. He is not fully house trained and has submissive peeing issues (but we haven't seen much of that yet and we've gotten him to "go" outside). The only way I could talk DH into it was by saying that I would do...

Hey Guys! I'm in between workouts and I came upstairs to change into bike shorts. I decided to shake things up today and do Muscle Endurance. I KNOW! I am NOT used to doing endurance work! It about killed me. I did the same weight as Cathe except on barbell lunges I did 5# more just b/c...

I'm in! And it will be all the more special knowing what Jim is going through right now. I will be doing challenge 7 from Volume 1 as is though - longer rests but also a longer workout! Yikes!

I've gotta say that I am not currently interested in ordering STS because I lift on my own more often than not (although I did FINALLY order the Gym Styles the other day to mix things up every now and then and am SO excited!) so had not previously looked at the You Tube videos but due to this...

If you do a search for Carmichael Training Systems (Lance Armstrong's Coach) they have some audio workouts. You also might check out www.spinervals.com. Of course they have tons of DVD's - not sure about audio stuff. They have some 3 hour DVD's though so maybe? Are you doing the MS 150? Good...

I always love this thread at Christmas time. DH and I don't buy presents, so I'm no fun at this game, but I love to read what everyone got. Oh, I did order GS Legs and Chest & Tricpes and Back, Shoulders & Triceps the other day. OH - and 2 bathing suits from VS for our Mexico trip in Feb. So I...

I don't have one but am getting a couple for the kids' fitness camp I'm running this summer at the college I work at and am looking forward to playing. :) BUT...I have heard that they are a lot of fun and might be something fun that you and your husband could do together...you know, spending...

Randi - That's awesome!!! I didn't know about Bailey. I'm sorry. I know how much she meant to you.

Merry Christmas! This morning I am cooking and getting everything prepared for my family that is coming over and then I will work legs and shower and EAT!!! I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas. Anyone else fitting in a workout today?

Unfortunately I will never understand basic technology because my husband does all of this stuff for me. It's pitiful. When I want new music on my MP3 I just hand it to him with my list. I feel like such a moron! I wouldn't know what to do if my computer broke and he wasn't around. I really...

Sonya - Of course family comes first and it's great that you got to spend time with your son before he heads off to the Holiday Bowl. So exciting!!! You've been working so hard and are so tight with your eating that you'll be fine. Okay, here's my workout: ARMS: Chins: 8/8/8 As we all...

Finished lifting FINALLY! Just fueling up for cardio. I don't think I have the strength for DM. I'll do CC#4 on the ellip. Hope Coach Sean is ready for me. I DID 3 UNASSISTED CHINS! As you all know I've never done one unassisted. I can lower myself completely down for all 24 in sets of 8...

Diane Sue - NICE workout! I SO wish I could use kettlebells. Maybe once my shoulder is all healed up. Just maybe. Since I've been off of work for almost a week already and don't go back until the 5th I haven't had Gregg stretch it for awhile and it will be awhile longer now. Will see how it does...

Merry Christmas Eve! I swore I wouldn't get on here until I accomplished a workout. But lookie - here I am! Today I have to do Chest & Back plus Arms and Abs AND Cardio since I slacked all day yesterday. Ah, the price I pay. I'm going to get started shortly. I'm debating on doing Drill Max...

Thanks Sonya. But something about me being in charge of my leg workouts and having Cathe being in charge is totally different. :) I have to keep up! I did order 2 bathing suits that were on sale and they both had the removable push up pads in them. Of course they had free shipping on $100 or...

Thanks Deborah! Maybe I'll order a small bottom to be safe. And a small top for sure! I wear a 2 or 4 in pants and I would just think that someone who would wear an XS would be like a size 0 and I certainly can't squeeze into a 0!

Diane Sue - That's good b/c they're on their way to my house! :) I'm going to go look at Rachel's rotation. If you think it's tough though it will KILL me! Is Drill Max Cardio Blast one of the premixes that is done without any of the weight stuff?

I think I saw on here recently something about bathing suits and what ones to buy and something was mentioned about VS but I don't remember what was said. I'm wondering if they are true to their sizing charts. I'm a bit skeptical because if I go by their measurements I should order an extra...
