    schools punishing with food

    Food shouldn't be used as a punishment OR a reward (I'm against teaching giving out candy for correct answers, etc.). What kind of "snack" do the children usually have? I'd be as concerned about the type of food (junk food? healthy snacks like fruits, veggies and nuts?) as about it being...

    Question for those of you who juice

    Why not make green smoothies (fruit and green leafy veggies) instead? (Basically what some of the Odwalla or Naked Juice blends are).

    dumbell rack

    I"ve had one similar to this Amazon.com: Cap Barbell A Type Dumbbell Rack: Sports & Outdoors for years, and I love it. It's sturdy (no wobbles at all), doesn't take up too much space, and is easy to get the weights off of.

    P90X2 pre-order.....who's caving?

    I ordered through Mary at www.totalfitnessdvds.com . She's a coach, but also someone I've ordered DVD's from for a while and trust. Here's the P90X preorder page: P90X 2 Pre-Order (P90X2)

    Omega 3 supplements

    I usually get my B12 in my multi (I use the multivitamin/mineral supplement from Dr. Furhman, as he makes sure to keep up on research, and omits ingredients that may pose health risks in supplement form, like vitamin A, beta carotene, folic acid or vitamin E). Amazon.com carries Now, Deva and...

    Any one else have this happen to them?!

    I think the fact that the "average American" is overweight (60%+ of the population is overweight, around 30% is obese) is skewing people's perceptions to the point where a healthy slim person is seen as 'skinny', or 'too thin' or suffering from an eating disorder (when they are not).

    10k run...

    Rest or yoga or a VERY SHORT run (10-15 minutes, but NOT an interval run) or short walk just to keep things loose.

    I'm thinking these may also be good to use when using the High Step, to remove the bit of 'wiggle' that the risers have when they are stacked taller.

    P90X2 pre-order.....who's caving?

    I preordered last week. There's a lot I will be modifying (like push-ups on 4 medicine balls! but Tony has backgrounders doing modifications, and I take his 'extreme' versions of some moves as something to perhaps aim for, but something I don't feel the need to do.), but I love a lot of what I...

    From looking at the pictures, it looks like the 'small' fits those mini steps and the 'large' fits the regular-sized 'club' step.

    18 lb. Dumbbell

    At least that give useful info about a brand that makes them. I'd do a websearch for York dumbbells, and see if there are any for less. If Perform Better has them, for example, they have a 'free shipping' sale regularly (this even includes kettlebells).

    Sensitive friend issue....

    I agree with those who say to just tell her that your son and her son, and you and she, just aren't a good fit anymore. IMO, you need to 'break up' with this friend, who doesn't sound like much of one in the first place. Do you really want to continue to be friends with her?

    18 lb. Dumbbell

    I've never seen an 18# dumbbells. I use Platemates to get to 17.5# (with two 1.25# ones). I could theoretically get to 18.75# by adding my 5/8"#ers to that (but I've never tried it. I figure that the 2.5# jump from 17.5 to 20 is doable, and I worrry about the stability of double-stacked...

    Suntegrity??? Moisturizers w/sunscreen

    I use it as a facial sunscreen, along with some other brands. After reading your post, I decided to use it as my moisturizer today (I usually just wear it to workout outside, and use other moisturizers when I'll be indoors). It's a bit pricey, IMO, and it's annoying that the dispenser is...
