I did xtrain legs today, my knees feel good right now (2 hours later), hopefully they stay that way. Tomorrow is AG and yoga. Elsie, My back always hurts after doing house work. In the past I would clean my house in a day, usually after my workout. I have to do the cleaning in stages now due to...

Today I did AOLI and xtrain c,b and shoulders. Tomorrow is AG and yoga. Elsie, I would not enjoy that heat either, do you have the humidity there as well? I can handle heat but not humidity, or bugs, lol. We have had a nice break for 2 days from the 90 degrees we were having. It is supposed to...

I did end up ordering the new series, not sure how much of it I will be able to do with my knee and back issues. RWH was really hard on my lower back and knees, even the low impact! I liked the ab sections, hopefully I will use the lifting portions once I get this golfer's elbow to settle...

For anyone interested in the WAGS gloves, they are on sale for 25% off. Use code: befree15 I use the ultra for all my training, it has really helped ease the discomfort in my wrists especially when doing push ups, mountain climbers etc..

Hi Elsie, I would say xtrain is more interesting. The first one is a tri set, you work chest, then back, then shoulders. In the other, you do a bicep motion followed by a tri motion. You do this until the end, but each tri set is different. In gym styles, it is three sets of the same motion. To...

I ladies, I have had an interesting week. I found a stray kitten living in the wood pile we have outside. She was so scared and hungry. I am not a cat person, but I couldn't let her starve either. I started giving her food, I was hoping she would eventually be less frightened. We finally trapped...

Hi Elsie, It is so nice talking and getting to know others who love fitness as much as we all do. Please let us know more about yourself. THe pilates with the hammock could potentially be interesting, I think is it going to take awhile for her to get a following. She did a mini w/o with myself...

Today I decided to put together a combo of cathe's low impact. I did X10, low impact, TTM low, CT low, and intensity low impact. It was a fun combo that didn't bother my knees or back. I got some cardio in which was nice, and used some w/o's that I didn't think I'd ever be able to do again. I am...

Amy, It is never a good idea to weigh yourself often, esp if you are wt training. The numbers on the scale can be very deceiving, go by how your clothes are fitting. I have always weighed about 10 pounds more than I look from all the muscle I was carrying. Once a month is a good idea, keep up...

Hi, I hope you both had a nice weekend. I went to my AG class on sat am, then did yard work most of the afternoon. We power washed the brick on our deck, and sealed it. What a hassle, we had to move all my pots and the furniture. Moving the pots wouldn't have been so bad had it not rained, they...

Today's hot yoga was a killer, there were a lot of bodies in the class which made it much warmer than usual. The instructor has a good class with good cueing, but I see so many people doings things wrong to get into the pose. If he would only take the time to correct these individuals they...

I can empathize with you on the migraines, Cendrine, definitely not fun!! I hope you find relief soon. I am really careful with food intolerances as well, they really wreck havoc on my body if I am not careful. I haven't gone back to swimming, it was so boring and the classes were more for...

Tonight will be anti gravity bootcamp, it is supposed to be a more advanced core w/o, but it really isn't any different from the normal class. I think it just discourages beginners so the instructor can move quickly between the poses. I did HSC yesterday, modified all the jumping moves. As much...

Today I did great glutes, my knees are feeling ok after my w/o on wed so hopefully they stay that way! Goodluck on gym styles Amy, keep us posted on your progress. I need to share your STS results with my friend who recently started doing cathe's w/o's. Hopefully it will encourage her. She just...

Today I was in the mood to do a cathe w/o so I started with X10, low impact. I then did RWH UBC but modified all the high impact moves, and used lower wts than I would do normally since I haven't really lifted in a while. My knees are a little achy but not that bad. Tomorrow will be AG airbarre...

Hi Cendrine and Amy, I had a nice weekend with my son and his girlfriend. Richmond is such a pretty area, I hope someday I can move down that way and be closer to my son. Yesterday I did afterburn, I feel good today which is surprising, no DOMS. I probably will feel it tomorrow!! Today was my...

Exhausting weekend doing mulching, transplanting etc...we decided this yard work is for "young" people, lol. I don't think I have ever been that exhausted!! Today I did CSS, it was so nice doing a cathe w/o! The turmeric, cosamin, and anti gravity classes really seem to be helping my knees. I...

I had a wonderful visit with my family this weekend in Pgh. Too much booze and not the cleanest of diets, but that is okay once in awhile. Yesterday I did athletic training, today was AG yoga. Cendrine, repetitive w/o's don't work for me either. As much as I love STS I could never do a 6 mo...

I don't think to check in as often either since most of my w/o's are anti gravity. Today I did cardio supersets, it was so nice doing a cathe w/o for a change. I am trying to do one of the LIS once a week to keep some cardio. I got a call from my Dr. saying my Vit D level was low, hopefully...

Hi ladies, I had a wonderful weekend!! My son got engaged to his girlfriend and we were able to celebrate with them, so excited!! Congrats on almost completing STS Amy, such a great program! I am getting ready for my Ag class this am followed by a hot yoga class. Have a great day.
