Hi All! Is there anyone in this Forum that is over 50 or am I the only one? If so, what is your workout schedule? Elln 53 years old

I have never done Muscle Max but I did Muscle Endurance last night for the first time, and I will say that "the jury is still out on ME". I am a beginner and I would have to recommend "Maximum Intensity Strength" instead of either of these, because it is more of an instructional tape than these...

As much as I hate the Elliptical, you do burn more calories on it than on a Treadmill (that is if you don't run on the treadmill) AND it's much less stress on your knees. Also, if you get one with the movable arms, you also get an upper body workout as well. For example, when I do 50 mins. on...

I just purchased my FIRST copy of M&F magazine - and after flipping through all of the ads, I was wondering if anyone has tried Lipo 6 (fat burning supplement)? There were quite a few ads for it - and I was just curious after seeing the Before & Afters. Elln

I am looking for a slightly less-advanced Aerobic Workout than what Cathe has to offer. (without weights or steps) MIC is a bit too advanced for me right now. I want to combine cardio into my regular routine of weights but I don't have any good cardio tapes. For my weight training, I am...

Caitlin: What was your recovery like? LONG???? Elln

After viewing alot of the "BEFORE" photos on this Forum, I can't believe that many of these folks had operations, and then again, it's just hard to believe that the transformations took place by diet and exercise. What do you think? Elln

Someone said that the only way to get rid of excess abdominal skin is thru surgery. Is this true? Elln

I just did Pure Strength Strong Legs & Abs for the first time, and I find it so far superior to GS: Legs. I hope Cathe does a PS II as well. Elln

Level 12 is unbelievably intense!!! I do 50 mins. 3x a week at Level 3-4 (18 minutes @ 4) on Track 3 (can't think of the name) and I don't hold on at all. I am hoping to reach Level 5 by late January. The elliptical that I use is a precor. www.precor.com Good for you! Keep it up!!! Elln

Do you think Liquid Calcium is BETTER/QUICKER absorbed by the body than tablets? http://www.lifetimevitamins.com/calmagliq.html Elln

OK, everyone - which is better for you: (1) Fresh Squeezed OJ with a calcium supplement of your choice; or (2) Tropicana's "Calcium Enriched" OJ with 350 mg. of Calcium already in it. Please advise. Elln
