Interesting! Technology still amazes me. Thanks for sharing the info, it is something I'm thinking of doing for future workouts. Autumn

Well for me I started with benching 30# and squatting hardly anything (hating leg w/o's maybe I did 20). Now I could have pushed it to do more but I didn't have enough weights anyway. Now I'm benching 72# for chest and 72# for squats too (a coincidence). So it's good to have enough weights so...

At first I couldn't find it either. on the right side where you click that you've ompleted the w/o: above the "today's notes" box you'll see "show details". click that. Then SCROLL DOWN and you will see DELETE THIS W/O, and other options. This is where I go in to "edit my workout" when doing sts...

? so do you workout with your computer screen? Or do you have an adapter to hook up the computer to the TV and watch the w/o on the tv screen? I was wondering about that. Also, could you download it to an ipod type of thing and listen to follow along at a gym? Just curious. - autumn

I really like that. Autumn

Cathe: I am figuring out a few wk rotation to do after STS strength (next wk is last wk). I am going to start it over again after a few wks of other tapes to mix things up a bit. I was wondering now that I figured out my 1RM, could you could give me the "percentage of weights for these...

I love the idea of a gym, but it's a gamble w/ the instructors...and the men and if they bother you or not...etc. I use to go to a ladies only gym and had a great instructor m-th at 4pm in NY. I went right after work and it was great, and that was before I heard of Cathe, I was doing some Firms...

wow, mine didn't do that. perhaps it's a new coating on it, maybe you should wipe it down with a damp sponge? Just a thought. - autumn

I feel the same way. My friends are not into it....and not working out at a gym don't have those contacts....my fb friends aren't either.mostly childhood friends and family (I put a post on my fb a few wks ago "any of my fb friends into fitness, love to talk about it...) nope. So I know what...

When I lift heavy I get hungry - but I workout before lunch so when I'm done I jump in the shower and then have lunch. Maybe you should have a protein shake right before the workout and that might help. I wouldn't eat in the middle of a w/o, it might make you sick. Autumn

Yes, that's the place. DH goes there for everything. We have one about 30 min's away. I couldn't remember the name before. Thanks for the advise, I have a bad knee and don't want it to get worse. We figure it will wear out, but we don't know how long it will take. We've got them at such a...

Gayle, I just looked up power cages on amazon and wow, they are quite pricey. DH is looking into deals, and he said he saw one that he thought would be good for me, and after he walked by when I was doing STS, he said it's the same one as the guys are using in the back. He's getting me one for...

thanks We have a few extra, I'll have to see how that works. I want to stop using my trampoline for hi impact and that's why I got the flooring, so I can jump. I have one bum knee, so I do have to be careful. Thanks for the advice. - Autumn

Thanks everyone. We put it together this morning, and I used it today. Step worked out really nice, but I don't want it to get messed up, so I might put a step matt on top of the matt. Also did STS chest/back today and that was nice too. JeanneMarie, you mentioned that you put 2 layers...

One more quick recipe He's another quick recipe that we had tonight: baby spinach roasted chicken (cut up) dried cherries or craisens either pecans or walnuts dressing: 1 tbsp olive oil 2 tsp red wine vinegar 1 tsp mustard We love it and eat it once a week.

Recently I posted a few pic's of my gym, but I didn't have the flooring done. We wound up buying these puzzle piece floor systems. We've got them on sale for $6 (for a pack of 4) and bought enough to cover the floor where I need it to be covered. I thought I'd share these pic's. :D:D:D:D:D:D...

I've always heard (and followed) the idea of doing all the cardio 1st, followed by weights, then followed by yoga/pilates or both. I heard if you want to look more muscular, you do it that way, if you just want to look lean, with no definition, then you do weights before a cardio or sandwhich it...

We like triscuits. We eat them with cheese, they are not the soup type but why not toast some whole grain bread for soup? You can add some garlic and olive oil for a little flavor if you like. (I'm a garlic fan). You can even melt some cheese on the triscuits in a micro for a few seconds...

Quick & Healthy Fish Tilapia with pesto - rice and veggies Prep: I cook ahead whole grain rice and store them in the frig I get a 5 lb bag of frozen Tilapia fish from walmart and they are individually wrapped and so I take how many I need out and run it under warm water for a few minutes...

Wow, that is scary. Yes, I will. - Autumn
