Good for you! Very inspirational for us 40-somethings. It is amazing the results that can be obtained by just "kicking it up a notch."

Thank you all so much for your advice. It is so frustrating to be injured especially when there is no apparent reason for it. Grrrhh.

I really like Workout Muse for intervals. You can listen to your own music and adjust the time of workouts and time of intervals. Makes workouts a bit more interesting than just plain listening to music.

Thanks, Cindi. I think I give the elliptical a shot. If it hurts, I'll stop.

Thanks for your responses. I'm hoping it just goes away on its own. As I get older I notice I get alot more aches and pains that seem to resolve themselves. I'll call my doc. if it doesn't resolve by the end of this week. Do you think it is ok to do some cardio on the elliptical?

Has anyone ever had sudden calf pain? I was just walking and all of a sudden if felt like I pulled a muscle in my calf. Its been about a week now and it still hurts. If I wear a 1 or 2 inch heal it feels better. I've been avoiding cardio which is making me crazy. Any ideas on what it is or...

I'm right there with you. I'm going to start STS for the second time on Monday. Hope that does it. I'm anxious to see other peoples responses.

Oh, I feel your pain. Literally. Last Sunday I got caught in freezing rain. Not only did I skid out off the road but when I got home I slipped in the driveway and landed on my hand. I was so mad because I moved to the Northeast 5 years ago from Florida and this was the first year I have ever...

I'd say laziness is probably the number one reason. I'm with you though, I hate it too and I never do it no matter how bad the weather is or now much of a rush I'm in.

Thanks for your post Jonezie.

I think that will work. I may do that myself.

I'm starting my second round of STS on Monday. I didn't do the first round as written because I was training with a personal trainer. Also, I didn't bother to do the 1 RM. This time, I'm going to do it as planned no matter what. Good luck and welcome to the boards.

That's a heartbreaking story. When bad stuff happens to our kids it is the absolute worst. You must be proud of your dd for sticking by her principals. She has courage.

Congrats. on your new friend. Just adorable. I want a dog so bad. Enjoy.

My original point was that we should try to be more tolerant of people who are less intelligent. When I read comments like "thin the herd" I find it a bit disturbing is all. I expressed my opinion and was attacked as a result.

Projecting again? So I made a typo, does that justify your comment?

Any you are the one who suggested "thinning the heard". That is disgraceful.

Project much?

Of course you can express your point of view. This is America. That's why I get to express mine as well.

That one is a toughy. I don't think I've ever made it all the way through but I came close last week and it was painful. I usually do the 35 minute premix and that's enough for me.
