I've always been really healthy too, we never had white bread or rice growing up. For me, "fluffy" actually refers to (good) things like bread, pasta and cereal. Nonfluffy would be brown rice, squash, sweet potatoes, and nuts, fruits, and veggies of course. I'm a little confused myself since...

I think it's a trade-off. If you're doing splits (e.g. legs one day, biceps/triceps the next), it's easier to get a full hour of just working that muscle group in. With a total body workout, it's probably more likely that you're devoting roughly half an hour to the entire lower body and upper...

Holy.....! She looks almost plastic, it's hard to believe that's real! Although my personal tastes are a little different, I am AMAZED!

I pretty much assumed I'd have to get it bleached. My only goal depth/level-wise is to basically get a more natural look (which for me is anywhere around dark blond to light brown). Since it's a medium brown now, I figured bleach would be the only option. With the tone, I'm concerned since I...

I got mine from performbetter.com. It came with several pages of directions (with pictures) showing how to use it for both balance and flexibility. You can download the directions from the site without even purchasing it though. That might give you an idea of what you could use it for...

Here's the deal. My hair is naturally dark blond. About a year a go I went to a lighter blond, hated it, tried to go back and ended up with a greenish light brown. So I tried to go brunette and have spent the last year looking like Morticia Adams (I'm freakishly pale, I should've known better...

I'm not trying to eke out free info lol, but can anyone tell what the book really teaches? I already do a lot of hip, glute, and quad strengthening, and I stretch like a maniac (to help with knee problems). Actually I strengthen everything else in my body too; not sure what more I could do that...

I say go for it! I have to say I'm intrigued by the glute building rotation. I guess I'll be searching for that too! Just remember. There better be pics posted with the kitty entries. I think it would be extremely helpful (and easier for you lol). I just tried logging out and I was still...

I agree! I bought mine as a last ditch effort to help with chondromalacia/tendinitis/plica syndrome issues. I was doing all the stretching I could (every few hours) but the IT Band is just not an easy area to stretch. Plus I view stretching like I do any exercise: as much variety and as many...

I totally agree. I think it's especially true when you're dealing with your own personal doctor who only knows as much as his individual experience has allowed him to learn. I guess I've gotten enough 'knee-jerks' in response to questions I've asked to take everything the doctor tells me with a...

I noticed Kathryn :) Mine is pretty low too. When I go to the doctor the nurses always check it, invariably say something like "hmm, that's slow..." and then check it again. Same with the blood pressure. I know mine is better because of my lifestyle, but I also have to thank genetics- my mom is...

My God, that avatar- too cute! And my condolences for Baby J. But on to your calves- stretch those legs! Stretch as much as possible, a dozen times a day if you can. I would recommend doing exactly what you plan to with the upper body work. Give those calves a rest for a couple days, or as...

I haven't heard anything regarding what the actual cause was. The only thing I did read was that his sarcoidosis was "not related". Maybe I'm just cynical, but that sounds a little knee-jerk to me.

^ Yes yes yes!^ We'll be waiting for the update tomorrow!

My two cents would definitely include Butts & Guts, in addition to whatever leg work (and of course cardio) you can get your hands on. It seems like when you round out and lift the tuchus area it pulls everything tighter and improves the saddlebag situation. But for me, that's where I store my...

Not Cathe here, but- How are you eating? I found that when I made the switch to eating 'clean', it made a big difference in my lower abs. I've always eaten healthy; the biggest change for me was switching out some starchy carbs for more fruits and veggies and cutting out the processed stuff...

The last time I saw a male VB match (pre-Olympics) the men had no shirts on. And I lllliked it. :) And I wholeheartedly support long shorts for men. I don't think short shorts or speedos would do it for me.

I ordered mine from bsnonline.com for $9.99. I'm not sure if they have them at GNC; the GNC store where I live doesn't carry any Lean Dessert. But don't hope for any Chocolate Fudge! :(

Me three! Me three! I feel like the shy kid who's afraid to join the club. :o I have a pretty pathetic post-injury routine going on right now, so I'll make all the others in the check-in feel great about their workouts. :D

Kick some a**, Laura! :D:D:D I'm so jealous. I think that could be the magic ingredient to me being able to workout after a full day of work. There'd be quite a few "take that"s in there. Hmm, I've never had the urge to kick something before. Crap Laura, now you've got me pricing them. :)
