    Does STS Push/Pull Tower = Altus Turbo Tower?

    Does anyone know if the STS Push/Pull Tower sold on Cathe's website is the same as the Altus Turbo Tower sold at sporting goods stores? They look identical and I know Cathe has coordinated with Altus on some of her fitness accessories. Thanks for any insight. Have a great day! Deborah

    no more D'S at this high school.

    This sounds similar to the system at my daughters' grammar school. They do not have a "D" grade -- only A, B, C, and F (which is anything below a 70).

    5k good news/bad news :-)

    Your good news is actually very good and definitely outweighs your kinda bad news. Congrats! That's a great 5k time. Deborah

    Such a blessing!!

    What wonderful news for you, your son, and your family. I'll be thinking of you and hoping that your little guy gets some relief from his conditions. He must be a trooper. All the best to all of you!

    I have an odd question

    No, but my waist disappeared. It's been missing ever since, even when I'm at my pre-kid weight.

    Cankles/Fat Ankles

    Unfortunately, no great advice here, just a bit of understanding. I also have very little in the way of "tapering" at the ankle area. Over the years, I have determined that, at least for me, it is largely the shape of my leg and there is not a whole lot I can do about it. That being said, I...

    I can't help but ask...

    I don't understand the reason for the above attack on the OP. It does not appear that she intended to offend anyone, and, although many may disagree with the appropriateness of the inquiry, why not just state your disagreement? I don't understand the need for a mean-spirited response. I don't...

    LL Bean versus Lands End

    I like both and think they are basically equivalent in quality, customer service, and pricing. But I find myself buying way more from Land's End for both of my daughters (5 and 7).

    Anyone living in Atlanta area?

    It looks like I may be relocating to Atlanta in a few months, and I am not that familiar with it. If anyone is, I wondered if you could tell me whether I'm on the right path. I'm looking at the East Cobb area because it seems to have good public schools and doesn't seem too miserably far from...

    This was a recent topic but I just need to vent!

    Just wanted to say that I understand your frustration, as I was the one who started the previous thread on this issue! I try not to be a negative person, but I really think people in general seem less considerate than in the past. Not everyone, of course, but too many, it seems. I used my...

    Drinking (alcohol) in front of kids - Help me draw the line

    Help! I am really in need of input (esp. from a smart bunch like you guys). My in-laws are visiting next week. I have 2 daughters, ages 5 and 7. Both in-laws drink quite a bit, but esp. my mother-in-law. I am totally OK with people drinking in moderation in front of my girls, but am...

    Early morning exercisers please stand up

    I'm thinking that my risk of heart attack would be greater if I DIDN'T exercise at 4:00 a.m., because if I didn't do it then, I wouldn't exercise at all, and that certainly wouldn't be good for my heart! Deborah

    Why is this? I am Frustrated!

    I am in the middle (or, hopefully, at the end) of the exact same experience. For several years I've been getting up at 4:00 to work out. For some reason, I just haven't felt "able" to get up and exercise the past several weeks (couldn't even imagine it, actually). Unfortunately, I never end...

    Is an R.S.V.P. too much to ask?

    Well, I'm glad to see that maybe I'm not being unreasonable. And I must be as snarky as Beavs, because I actually considered just cancelling the party and letting the too-busy-and-self-absorbed people who didn't R.S.V.P. just show up anyway (especially seeing that I don't have contact info. for...

    Is an R.S.V.P. too much to ask?

    Can I vent? I'm so frustrated. I gave out 24 invitations to a joint b-day party I'm having for my 2 daughters a week and a half ago. I requested an R.S.V.P. and provided a phone # and an e-mail address. Only 2 PEOPLE have responded so far. I have to let the party place know a head count by...

    Could running be worked in w/Insanity?

    Thanks for the input, ladies. Jansherman, do you substitute running for some of the Insanity workouts, or also run in addition to the full Insanity rotation? I'm thinking I may not have time to do both. Thanks again for your input. Have a great night! Deborah

    Could running be worked in w/Insanity?

    Any opinions? I live in the South and like to run in the fall/winter after the dreadfully hot summers are over. I'm thinking about buying Insanity, but I'm wondering if it is already so cardio-intensive that adding or subing in running wouldn't really work. Any input is greatly appreciated...

    So where are YOU located? :)

    Nope. I live in Little Rock. Only I'm not really an Arkansan. I was born and raised in Rhode Island, lived in Los Angeles for 10 years, then Austin for 3 years, and somehow I ended up in Arkansas. Go figure! Deborah p.s. Heather -- I thought I was the only one living in Arkansas...

    My CC instrumental links expired!

    Thank you so much for that quote! I hadn't seen that. I feel so much better now. Now I can enjoy my night again. Thanks again! Deborah

    My CC instrumental links expired!

    I'm so bummed! I ordered all 8 a few weeks ago and only now got around to attempting to download them. But the links say they are expired! I had no idea they expired. Has this ever happened to anyone? I hope Sean will send new links. Otherwise, I just wasted $40! I'm an idiot! Have a...
