Hello everyone, With summer here and my routine not being as structured as during the school year I've found that I've been flaky about checking in. I was in a wedding this past weekend (more on that later) and have been scrambling like mad to get things done at home being it was another...

Hi everyone, Checking in before all the wedding stuff totally takes over my weekend. While the wedding should be fun I'm not looking forward to all the primping and such that needs to happen for pictures etc. I just want to relax and totally veg out! Today was CIA 2202 All Out Step w/...

Good Morning everyone, I had to get up early today to take my car in for a service call and am now at work trying to finish up some things before the summer vacation. I decided to get extra sleep since I'm still recovering from my cold rather than work out this morning. If I'm feeling up...

Good Morning everyone, I am slowly recovering from my cold. At least my head doesn't feel quite so congested and tippy as it has for the past few days. I'm taking it easy this week and just doing my 'bare minimum' as I'm in a wedding this weekend and don't want to be coughing or sneezing or...

During lunch time, a co-worker of mine saw my lunch and told me that I could burn more calories if I added spices to it to heat it up (it was having a sandwich, applesauce, and a diet coke). She knows I'm into fitness and such and though I would appreciate the knowledge. Anyway, she says that...

Good Morning all, I'm still feeling a bit under the weather so I opted for a moderate workout, Reebok Rhythmic Power. I love Petra and enjoy this workout for when I just don't have it in me to push hard. My fitness goals are pretty simple. First, I would like to increase my cardio...

Hi everyone, Didn't get around to posting in the weekend edition so figured I'd start for today. I'll start things with what I've been doing for the past two weeks. 1st week (ending the 13th) Monday- Christi's Still Jumpin Just for Fun. Tuesday- Cathe's Push Pull. Wednesday- Nothing...

Hi everyone, I'm back from Hawaii!!!!!! Had such an incredible time!!!! I'll post more details later on. Got in late last night and am DOG TIRED today. I haven't worked out today (and probably won't) although I might try some yoga later on if I'm still up and have some energy. I...

Hi everyone, My last check in before heading to Hawaii!!! I'm starting to freak out. I still have so much stuff to try to get done before I go and not nearly enough time. EEEEKKKKK!!!! Today was Push Pull and I added on Power Hour abs for some more core work. Went as heavy as I could...

Hi everyone, The countdown to Maui has begun. It's less than 48 hours away! I've still got quite a few things to do at work and last minute laundry, cleaning, etc. Getting excited and am stressed about getting everything done beforehand. Still working out though. Here's what I've been...

Hi everyone, Today I did Cardio and Weights. I hadn't done this workout in so long! I forgot that this workout, while considered one of Cathe's easier workouts, is still pretty darn challenging and I was drenched with sweat at the end of it. Unfortunately, I think I pulled my lower back a...

It's the Troylite Barbell system. You can buy it online at www.fitness1st.com. The set is $49.95 plus shipping so it should come to around $80. HTH,

Good Morning everyone, Been another chaotic couple of days with both work and trying to get errands done before my trip. Here's what I've been up to the past couple of days. Wednesday- Timesaver #5. Thursday- Timesaver #3. Totally kicked a$$ on the roll ins and pikes! I was...

Hi everyone, Today was Timesaver #2 and I added on Sunrise Yoga to try to stretch out my back. Today started that TOM and my lower back is quite sore and tight. I usually don't get that much discomfort so this is unusual. I'm just happy to get THAT out of the way this week as opposed to...

Hope everyone is enjoying their Memorial Day weekend. I've been taking it easy at home, doing lots of chores around the house in pre-preparation for my trip in 8 days!!!!! I've been pretty good about eating and yet today have this tremendous urge for hot dogs! I may cave and buy some along...

Hi Jackie, It's the June 2003 rotation. If you go to the rotations forum there is a post by Jula mentioning the June 2003 rotation and she has a link to the actual thread containing the rotation. HTH,

Not Cathe and wanted to answer your question. As far as weight workouts that don't use a barbell, there is Pyramid Upper Body and Cardio and Weights that I know for sure. However, as long as you have a good selection of dumbbells, you can pretty much do the exact same move with a barbell...

Hi everyone, Yesterday got away from me and I wasn't able to check in. So, here's what I've been up to workout wise the past couple of days. Thursday- Christi's Totally Hot Cardio. In the evening did Evening Stress Release Yoga program 2. Friday- Pyramid Up Total Body Workout. REALLY...

Good Morning everyone, Today is officially two weeks until I got to Hawaii. At this exact moment in two weeks my sister and I will have been in the air for about 20 minutes and will eagerly be anticipating breakfast service and mimosas (my sister is using her miles to upgrade us to first...

HI Pinky, Actually, the quad feels just fine. When I did PLB yesterday I had had almost a week off from any lower body work so I was mildly sore. It was my mistake to decide to do IMAX when my legs were already sore. All those power moves (especially the 3 intervals I mentioned in my...
