    Exercises disappearing off of the Workout Card?

    Funny, I started STS again Monday printed out my card for Disc #1 Chest, Shoulders & Biceps and proceeded to workout. Very bizarre but for some reason I had 2 exercises missing off the workout card? The Concentration Curls and the Seated Front press. I looked up my last cards and those exercises...

    What kind of weighted vest do you have?

    I generally wear a small to medium t-shirt size. I have heard others say this vest was a bit bulky but it feels fine to me. I just don't have the money to pay for a high priced vest and I really love the versatility of this one being adjustable...:)

    What kind of weighted vest do you have?

    I use an adjustable 20 pound Gold's Gym vest I got at Walmart. It was about $50. It is a bit bulky but works well for adding weight at different increments...:) Here is a link: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5481392

    OK. I think there's something stinky in Drifit.

    I just wanted to add, I have used Win detergent for about a year. I know it is a bit pricey but it took all the old sweaty smells out of the majority of my running clothes. I think it is great!...:)

    Runners, training question for you

    Hey Gayle...I do agree a lot with what Gin said about running 15 miles during HM training makes the HM a party!! But it has been awhile since I trained for a half. I feel that any distance race before the Marathon you should probably do the actual distance in training at least once. A rule I...

    Hey runners - what kind of headphones

    It drove me nuts that my ear buds kept falling out when I ran and sweated. I got some Sennheiser MX55 Twist-To-Fit through Amazon and they worked awesome!!
