This morning I did KickMax. I'm also biking a total of 40 minutes (getting my daughter to and from school). For a substitute for BodyMax: you could do one hour step aerobics and 30 minutes upper body weights. The Viper would also be a good substitute as it has step aerobics, lower body...

Good morning ladies On Saturday (which was supposed to be my rest day) I went for a 2 hour swim with my kids. The weather was fantastic and swimming outside for the first time this year was fantastic. In particular I enjoyed playing tag with my daughter (age 6). She's a little fish in the...

Phyllis I'm doing the wall squats with the ball. I'm leaning against the ball while it's on the floor and doing squats. I'm not sure how long I'm holding them for as I listen to music and wait for the burn. When my leg won't hold me I then switch to the other side. I've done BodyMax 29 times...

Another vote for levitation holds. I got off the floor once and have no idea how I did it and have been unable to repeat it. My theory is because my legs are super long (I'm 5'8" but my legs are as long as my dad's and he's 6'1"). By a miracle I did triceps push ups for the first time 2 weeks...

For great cardio without needing the step I'd recommend Kick, Punch and Crunch. It's an awesome workout! Another great one is KickMax. For step cardio I'd recommend Imax, Imax2 and Imax3. The step portions are repeated so they get to be easier fast and the intensity blasts are excellent.

Hi! Today I did the entire Bodymax. I then checked the rotation and realized I was supposed to do just the upper body of bodymax so I'll shuffle the order around a little this week. This was my 29th time doing BodyMax and I still enjoy it. I kept telling myself I'll just do the chest...well...

I'm 39 and have been exercising forever. As a teenager I swam at least 5 times a week and did spring board diving twice a week. I also did aerobics for the first time (those early classes were like bootcamp...lots of jumping jacks and toe touches). In University I swam, played squash and did...

I did PLB this morning after not doing it for a year. I lifted heavier for the pyramid portion (38,43,49,43,38 lb for most of it). I managed to do all of the stability ball portion but my leg muscles were on fire. For the very last side of leg lifts I lowered off the stability ball for the last...

Good morning Laurie This morning I did Pyramid Lower Body. Every muscle was crying during the stability ball inner and outer leg muscle exercises...it was awesome. I did a lot of biking yesterday and will be biking at least 40 minutes today so I won't be doing the run. To be honest I'm not a...

Today I did StepBlast. I also did a total of 75 minutes of biking outside (35 minutes while pulling the chariot) so I figure that covers the "run" for tomorrow. I'm going to do pyramid lower body tomorrow which will complete week 2 of the challenge. Yippee!!!

RE: The prenup thread got me wondering - married, singl... Married...9 years as of the 28th of June. We have a 6 year old and 5 year old.

I have a tie: corkscrews from CoreMax and the ab exercise we used to do in diving where you a) balance on your bottom in a V position (tight core throughout) with arms straight out to the sides b) slowly bring your knees to your chest while your hands touch your knees c) hold in...

Well I just finished pyramid upper body. After doing KPC yesterday I really felt every muscle in my arms. I really pushed myself and managed to do 10,12,15,12,10 weights with the biceps for the first time...Yeah! I'm actually thinking of asking Santa for 25 lb hand weights as the 20s aren't hard...

Yesterday I did Pyramid upper body and BBW. I laughed when Cathe said "I think I'm experiencing an out of body experience". I managed to do the biceps at 10, 12, 15, 12 and almost completed the last set of 10 (had to drop down to 8s for the last 6 to maintain form). Today I did KPC...the sweat...

A rotation is doing a bunch of Cathe workouts for typically four weeks to achieve a goal. Presently the June rotation is focused on the Butt muscles for swimsuit weather. Other rotations posted have focused on building endurance, increasing strength, shock your system or burning fat. There is a...

Imax2 felt fantastic. It's amazing the difference it makes that my cold is finally gone (it held on for 7 weeks). The walking lunges were assisted by listening to Cyndi Lauper...kept me moving. No leg DOMS for me yet...I'm hoping I'll get some later this week.

Good morning! Today starts week 2 of the challenge for me. I'm doing Imax2 and 300 walking lunges this morning after biking my daughter to school. Have a fantastic day!

KPC would work as a sub for cardio kicks, although KPC works you a bit harder. Yesterday I did Rhythmic Step and a total of 70 minutes of biking (biking errands all over town). I really enjoyed the step workout. This morning I planted my annuals and perennials. This afternoon I'm doing...

Aquajock I'm definitely going to gave to try the variation you recommended. I'm presently doing the Rock Bottoms rotation so Canada Day should be a good day to try it. Thanks!

Yesterday was my rest day as we went to the Airshow. I saw an airplane land on a RV. The show was amazing. Day 4 of Rock Bottoms for me today. CTX Upper Body felt good. The BBW felt long. I put on the music for Dirty Dancing which helped to keep me motivated. I tacked on 20 minutes of Stretch...
