    Merit Badge Max

    52-mile bike ride today. I'm calling it Merit Badge Max: My son's last requirement for his last merit badge for his Eagle Scout requirements. His project is already done, and his time requirement will be up on August 10th. Happy Son, happy Mother! :)

    I'm looking forward to "Max" week. I love all these workouts--some I haven't done in a long time. This will be FUN!

    X-Box question

    Thanks for your replies. I guess it's a 360 Slim, so only certain hard drives will work--but we are looking at the refurbished ones. We'll keep an eye out. Thanks for the advice.

    Bed of Nails!

    One of the reviewers on Amazon said they liked the "Heavenly Acupressure" mat's quality better than the "Bed of Nails". Does anyone have any experience with this?

    X-Box question

    Help for the clueless, please? My sons pooled their money and bought an XBox 360 console with Kinect. They would like to play some original backwards-compatible X-Box games, but it says you need a hard drive for that. Is there a way around this, or do we really have to purchase a hard drive...

    I liked CrossFit

    I did a week of CrossFit and loved it. My friend invited me to her place: They were doing a free week for anyone who wanted to try it out. The WODs didn't include any lifting (except for bar thrusters one day) because there were so many new people, but I enjoyed my taste of the workouts. It was...

    Switching back to lighter weights?

    Interesting post, and I hope you get a reply. I noticed in the X-Train leg workouts that I really "felt" the moves much better with a lighter weight.

    I liked CrossFit

    Oops--I posted in the wrong forum. I can't figure out how to delete a thread (instead of a reply), so I will leave my ending comments. I would stay with it if it weren't so expensive--yikes! Thank goodness for Cathe! She's always incorporating new things, yet her "older" workouts are...

    Hair & the new workouts

    I think I understand the spirit of what the OP is saying. I, too, like to look at the hair styles when I do the workouts. But when I workout, it's a ponytail (double-bands), bangs clipped out of my face, and a 2" sweatband! I even have to vary my ponytail to suit the workout--lower if I'm...

    CrossFit Advice?

    My friend does CrossFit, and her place is doing a free week next week for people to try it out. My friend invited me, and I'm excited to go--I've been very curious. Any advice? What footwear is recommended? I wear my Vibrams for all my workouts except running (including HiiT).

    tips on freezing food?

    It works very well--I never add sugar when I freeze fruit. Flash freezing would be the best solution if you don't want them to stick together. Depending on how juicy the fruit is, however, you could just freeze the sliced fruit in small freezer bags. I haven't done plums, but I do peaches...

    Getting Older

    Amen! I try to focus on the things I can do something about, and try to ignore the things I can't--but we all have those days.

    Funny Clip for Healthy Eaters

    Okay--complete role reversal: I'm rolling, and my son is just looking at me and says "I didn't think that one was so funny, but whatever." :eek: Yes, he absolutely nailed Tony!

    Funny Clip for Healthy Eaters

    I hadn't seen the Shoulder Angel--needed a tissue for that one. My husband was watching the news last night when DS (the 13-year-old) wanted to know if he was watching the "5-day-forecast" and proceeded to do a play-by-play.

    Funny Clip for Healthy Eaters

    Well, at least I don't have a fish strapped to my arm.:p;) It must be a male thing, then.:rolleyes: My my 13-year-old laughs his head off (not literally, though). 'Captain Literally' is my favorite: Studio C - Captain Literally, part 1 - YouTube Studio C - Captian Literally, part 2 -...
