Has anyone read the E-book Iron Dolls (ElitePhysique website) I'm curious about the content and what population it's geared for - bodybuilders/fitness competitors? Any feedback is appreciated. Alexandra

I wasn't thrilled with Lowmax at first, but now it's one of my favorites! I have to admit that my heart rate doesn't get as high with this workout but I use it more for the greatleg/glute work that it provides! Right now I'm working my lowerbody twice per week - one heavy weight day and then one...

Good point, Lois about keeping expectations realistic. I think I need to be remember this! Alexandra >> My other >suggestion, keep your expectations realistic. I have seen >some very fit people with cellulite. It just is sometimes. > >--Lois > >"Don't forget to breathe!"

Hi Letswork, Thanks for you response. Your rotation actually looks similar to mine. I too, see the best results working with really heavy weight and intense cardio, but I typically do both back to back ( I workout in the morning before work and am pooped in the evening when I get home) I've...

Hmmm, this is interesting and I've sometimes wondered whether this is what's happening with me. I'm at very low body fat and am pretty toned/defined overall. My lower body is where I hold my fat, but I eat pretty clean and have been able to manage it. I recently, noticed some...

Hello Letswork, I hope you don't mind my asking, but I'm curious what a typical rotation for you looks like? Do you alternate upper/lower body work or do you do one body part per week? For the weight work, do you work out to videos exclusively or do you have access to a gym? Thanks in...

RE: Do you plan your meals for the whole day? Oh yes, I plan meals (and a few other things)! I eat about 6 times per day (5 of those meals I eat while at work). It's crucial for me. If I didn't plan, it would be harder for me to make good food choices. It's a burden for me (and my family)when...

What is the Abs Diet? Alexandra

Hi Maximus, I used to use one of Victoria Principal's skin care lines. The eye gels and creams contained Argeline. I used the products for about a year and half and although, I liked them - clean feeling, no heaviness, I really didn't see any noticable results. Granted, I don't have a bunch...

Candi, I can definetly relate; every now and then I decide to lower my carb intake, and I mean really lower it (in an effort to blast that last bit of jiggle from my bottom). That combined with continued high intensity training works, the jiggles go away but two to three weeks of this type of...

Thanks for the number. I called and did confirm that my subscription would be transferred to Muscle Fitness. I asked the representative if the Muscle Fitness mag would change to include more women oriented training, but she didn't know. The last issue of M&F Hers will be the spring issue...

Hi Elaine, I'm "resurrecting" this post as I'm curious if you continued with the 6 days per week lowerbody work and what your results have been. thanks, Alexandra >Hi Trish, > >Check out this website for Wendy McCaffrey, >http://www.wendymccaffrey.com/. She's a fitness...

Sabrina, Thanks so much for the info. If it's not too much trouble, please post the phone number. Thanks again. Alexandra >Alexandra, > >I called and Spring 2005 is the last issue of Muscle and >Fitness Hers and then your subscription goes to the regular >Muscle and...

I'm always on the hunt for low sugar protein bars. CarbRite is one brand that's lower in sugar and recognizable ingredients and decent carb/protein/fat rations. Hard to find, though. I found them by accident at a discount vitamin/supplement store. I don't really eat many protein bars, though...

Sabrina, Do let me know what you find out. Thanks! Alexandra

Hmmm, I just subcribed to M&F Hers and received my first issue. I'm surprised to hear that they will no longer be offering the magazine via subscription. I have not received any notification. Alexandra

Another Italian Greyhound here. That was fun! Alexandra

Hello Pam, I just bought this book last week. It is indeed worth the $39! The book is packed with good solid, no nonsense information on how to burn fat and build or maintain muscle through balanced nutrition and training. In addition to the book, you also get a book with very balanced and...

I agree, period 5 and 6 seem really drastic. I'm not a big believer in these online calculators. I was curious about what my "plan" would look like, so I entered my stats and here's what was calculated! There's no way I would have the energy to get through my day, let alone workout, with the...
