I'm seeing trainers use this with clients at the gym, & it looks fun, super tough & very effective. The equipment is relatively simple & kind of expensive, but considering how much you can do with it probably worth the price. I am definitely gonna get it. Perfect for home exercisers. Doesn't...

I tried it when it first came out. It made my skin feel dry & tight, & I felt like it made my wrinkles look WORSE. :eek: I've been using bio-oil on my face (a product for stretch marks), and I cannot believe the difference it's made. I put it on right out of the shower, then I use a cheap...

Hmmm that's interesting, I seem to do the opposite of most. I feel the gym offers much more in the way of weights and equipment that are too expensive and/or take up too much space at home, so I do all my strength training at the gym & all my cardio at home. Also, I see no reason why you...

Well worth the $10. Got mine Friday & have used them twice. Definitely noticed a difference. Not just with the noise, but with the impact--it felt much, much better on my feet. Two thumbs up. Get 'em while the gettin's good.

Yep,I think it's for real. I think the lunk alarm is for real too. I have to admit the grunting thing used to be a tremendous annoyance for me (at one of my old gyms a guy made this elephant sound every time he exhaled--SO distracting!) but the mp3 has resolved those issues. Now, if they had...

Oh screw moving the weights--congrats on having a dedicated workout space! So exciting! LOL! I did what Mama Deb did last time I moved. The movers wanted to charge so much to move the weights I just took them over little by little while I was moving other stuff I wanted to do myself.

I started with 8". Dropped down to 6" when I discovered (thank you Polar) that the difference betw. cals burned was nominal, but the difference betw. joints preserved was significant. ;)

If you have 5 extra minutes today, you MUST watch this, esp. if you go to a gym. It is one of the funniest bits on exercise I have ever seen. Not usually a Jason Jones fan, but he nailed this one. :D The Plight of Muscled Americans - The Daily Show with Jon Stewart - 09/14/11 - Video Clip |...

My podiatrist recommends Asics or New Balance. Personally I've always gone with Asics--never found a pair of NBs I really like. And I've found the cheaper Asics to be much more comfortable than the expensive ones. Go figure.

Oh yes, thank you thank you thank you! You'd be surprised at how much shock a thin layer of rubber can absorb........I have pretty painful feet issues, & $10 is well worth it if it can alleviate that, even just a little! Hate to order from Walmart (or Amazon for that matter), but sometimes a...

Aw thanks JT, so sweet of you to be thinking of me! Actually I live in north Jersey just outside of NYC. We got hit pretty hard. Didn't lose power, but went without water for 3 days. I will never take a flushing toilet & a hot shower for granted again! :eek: Some of my friends lost power...

You've all given me such great feedback, thanks! I am def. gonna check out those books. I'm not typically into self help, but they sound interesting & could maybe help. The good news is, I kind of went out on a limb & let my guard down a little. Not much, but basically told him how I felt...

Thanks Donna. :) Phyllis, being friends with a guy & being intimate with him are two totally different things. For example, my ex husband was a horrible husband but a great friend. Still is a pretty good friend for that matter. You just don't know what kind of crap a guy's gonna pull on you...

Tracey, I'm pretty sure I have that all covered. I like him & respect him very much. I've known him for almost 10 years, we've been very good friends for most of that time. We have a very similar sense of humor, make each other laugh & generally have a blast together. I just got this "soft...

Now THAT is the kind of input I need! ;) Thank you. And thanks Lisa for coming out of your comfort zone & sharing. Honestly I wasn't really comfortable w/my OP b/c it's so personal but like I said, I so do not want to screw this up like I have before! So I need to tone down the tough side...

The feeling is mutual ImFiddy. You're the last person from whom I'd ask for advice. I don't even know why you'd respond to this post since you clearly had nothing to say other than insult me. It was purely unnecessary, mean spirited and childish. You should take a look at yourself before you...

Howdy folks, long time no see! Popped in b/c I need some advice from the ladies. Those of you who know me know that I come off as kind of a tough nut. Although I do have a soft side, it stays well hidden b/c it's afraid of being vulnerable. So even though I'm a very loyal & caring person & would...

I've been using Mitchum original unscented solid since the dawn of time. It really is so effective you can skip a day. :D Seriously, I can't go without it. Sometimes I'll try something else if my drugstore is sold out, & I always end up trashing it & going back to Mitchum.

Unfortunately there's just no solution. I'm at my lowest bodyfat ever & I still have lumpy thighs. :( Totally genetics. My mother's rear end & legs look like two baggies full of cottage cheese. I cannot even imagine what I'd look like without constant exercise & dieting! :eek: I even tried...

Thanks Pam. I'm curious about the cost. They (conveniently) do not tell you how much on their website, just that you can have a free 30 day trial. So how hard would this hit my wallet?
