    Think you know your Microsoft?

    Well, I don't think it's a good tool for "weeding out" applicants, since the questions seem to be based on you memorizing everything that should be on the screen. What's the point of that when you'll see them when you perform the steps. The programs are designed to help guide you through what...

    Morningstar not a problem - I was ridiculously bored at work today. LOL. I hate waiting for projects to start. I had to do jury duty once. 3 teenaged boys were accused of possession of a firearm. I wasn't given much of an opportunity to get out of it. They asked where I worked, what I did...

    Bento Kettlebell workouts

    thanks! I just ordered Paul Katami's off of Amazon. Couldn't believe the price of the kettlebells on there - I can get them at Marshalls and TJ Maxx for so much less! Anyway, I'm looking forward to doing something new for my core. Can't wait to get started.

    Jenn I posted a thread on Open Discussion asking about that Bento Kettlebell workout. If I've never done a kettlebell routine, but am considered an advanced exerciser, do you think it's OK to start with Dynamics? I saw she has one that's more geared towards "beginners" but I don't want to...

    Bento Kettlebell workouts

    OK, I'm sure someone has asked this, but doing a search is sometimes a pain. I'm thinking about trying Amy Bento's Kettlebell workout. I see that she has 2 of them and one is easier than the other. I don't really like getting "easy" workouts, because they soon become too easy and then...

    What's your motivation/matra?

    I don't have one, I just don't believe in stopping until I'm done.

    Manipulating STS 1RM?

    You can recalculate it in the workout manager when you're entering your data for that day's workout. There's a little calculator on the right side next to where you enter your reps.

    Melissa what's Athletica? I Googled and all I could find was yoga clothes. And I totally hear you on the STS Back & Bis. That was me yesterday - only it was Chest, Shoulders and Bis. Sometimes the thought of all those push-ups... Gotta pay the fiddler today, though, and Just Do It! Good...

    Quick Fitness Fix

    I would love to give that a go.... except any time I go up and down my stairs, my Aussie is right on my heels. I fear I'd end up flying instead of running. LOL

    Janis did you try Tonique Mat? My butt was on fire when I was doing it and I was really expecting some DOMS on Sunday.... but nope. I never, ever get them and it bums me out a little. Once I pass the initial week of getting back into working out after being off for a time, DOMS are a thing of...

    Clean Eating Menu Plan Question

    What's wrong with eating a big steak after a tough workout? I eat one once a week... though, it's grass fed buffalo sirloin. Much higher in protein and very lean. I also eat pork tenderloin and chicken. You might want to check out quinoa, if you've never had it. Very nice alternative to rice.

    Locked closet update (aka went Dr. Phil on my son)

    I don't think you should give the toys away... yet. Use the strategy of rotating them. He will have more fun with them that way. My daughter loves building forts in my living room, but they're always right in the walking zone. It is fun watching them use their imagination, isn't it? Glad...

    LOL, no Regina... I don't know Brad Pitt. My bf and I just happened to watch 2 movies with him in them last night, so he was the first hot actor who came to my mind. He's so pretty....

    Happy MLK Day, ladies! MJ, I'm sorry you're going through so much these days. I'm glad you're keeping exercise on your schedule, though, because it can only help to relieve your stress. Suzie I was the one who mentioned the Elliptigo. Coach Jenny posted about it and it piqued my interest...

    Little drummer boy. Amazing!

    What a cutie!!!! I love that huge smile not only on his face, but the dude with the green t-shirt with the camera behind him for a bit. Sort of forgot what an incredibly repetitive song that is though....

    Hi Warriors!!!! Easy day today.... just 4 miles on the treadmill. Followed it up with a goat cheese omelette and Ezekiel toast. Yummmm. I'm addicted to goat cheese, you know. My favorite dinner is a big salad with goat cheese and grilled chicken on top. That's one thing I love about being...

    Hey Janis - do you own a winery? I am SUCH a wine freak! Fortunately I have 3 different wine trails all within 2 hours of my home, and NY wines are so good. But it's an expensive love. Rowan is a gorgeous dog - is he a standard poodle?

    Good afternoon, ladies. Cathy - I used the nutrition software last summer when I started out and needed to drop some weight and it was a HUGE help. I really loved how it showed me what nutrients I was short on for the day and gave suggestions on what I should eat to get them. It would go...
