My arms are not a problem area but they lacked definition because for so long, just going to the gym, I focused mostly on my legs. My arms were so weak in comparison to legs and I had to do something so I searched for what would work and Pyramid Upper Body did amazing things, to the point where...

I am loving watching him grow up! Thanks for keeping the pics coming :) Too bad he clearly gets no attention though :p;):D I love that he is as much a part of the family as your kids.

http://www.spinervals.com/products/department3.cfm They are called Body Works MD Sports Medicine and there is one for the shoulder, one for the ankle, one for the back and one for the knee. These would be very good, I think. I've not tried any but would certainly do so if I was having...

Janie - I am so, so very sorry to read this news and know what you must be going through. There are no words that would be enough or right, but I am sending you tons of hugs and prayers for you and your family right now.

Be sure you get two. I got one to start with and then couldn't find one to match exactly but was finally able to get two that almost match and are very similar so they feel about the same in use. With two, you can do cool push up variations, have one foot on each for some leg work (probably...

I love my balance stuff! Target has their balance board things on clearance (at least at mine.) 30% off I think. I also have 2 of the xerdiscs and enjoy those, and a BOSU (love that thing) and a Reebok core board that I got used on ebay. You can do so much with all of it. I will use any of...

I walk with my weighted vest (10lbs) sometimes. My TM goes to 15% and I vary my inclines. You can get a great workout on the TM! I think speed and incline depend on your fitness level. I would definitely try Cardio Coach workouts or HIIT workouts. Tracey Staehle has a walking DVD but I've...

Hi Theresa - sounds like a good plan and attitude! Let me know what you think of the P90X. I am starting STS today, but will move legs to Mondays instead of Fridays so that I can ride on Saturdays. Yesterday was a rest day for me (did some new ab work - most I didn't care for b/c it was too...

Hey Everyone - great workouts! Just have a minute but wanted to post - Burned just over 900 calories and now time for shower...yep, might just be needing one of those. Results were as follows: 7.01 miles in the bike (challenge 1), 1.52 on the TM (challenges 2 and 3), 1.60 (77 flights) on...

Robin -the thing that still bothers me most is that stupid little string of fabric cutting across her middle. I think that contributes to some of the roll. I think the magazine did it for publicity but maybe also to help women feel comfortable...that they don't have to have a perfect body...

Thank you, TeTe and Gayle :) ETA TeTe in b/c I was not to page 2 when I responded!

Robin - I think DirtDiva was saying just that - she doesn't know you but can only make assumptions about you based on what you write here. It would be sad for someone who is not the perfect weight/size to read this and interpret it the wrong way. Most people do have a roll somewhere, whether it...

Kristin - glad your day is better today! Academy did have the steps for an amazing price. i don't trust the websites. They say that some items are only online then you go to the store and there they are.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DIANE SUE!!! Last night, I did SLoMo legs again. I love that DVD. I lowered my weights on most and enjoyed it much more. So much of it is lower back and forearm intensive and this made me feel better but still left my legs screaming. They feel good today - not too painful...

Sorry - that sounds like a bummer thing to have. I do not eat refined carbs (I will eat them when out, which is very occasionally and only if there aren't better choices!). I will have a baked potato before an event (triathlon or long bike ride). I try to eat almost all of my carbs in their...
