Hey! Just finished Body Fusion, CoreMax, T-Tapp, and Total Body Stretch. It was a great workout. I really felt "Lead Legged" last week and after a few days off of exercise - I have realized that I really was "muscle fatigued" from moving into Intermediate. I did not really know what that...

Hey Linda! Yoga: Rodney Yee, GAIAM Yoga for Beginners, I avoid "Power Yogas" - not what yoga is supposed to be for me My Favorite: http://www.collagevideo.com/workout-video/am-and-pm-yoga-for-beginners-7074 Pilates: 10 Minute Solutions, Body Fusion by Ellen Barrett My Favorite...

Stacy - did you read my mind about working hard and still fat? I have been trying so hard since October and especially since January with eating habits - but, my weight loss graph looks like hills going up and down. Not alot of descending going on. I really fought getting tired and down the...

Hey - I am here! I have had guests over this weekend and am now catching up on EMails, etc. I will check this new thread out - post the new rotation - etc. and get back with you ASAP. Missed talking with you. Donna

Linda and Stacy - I would love to move to "Check-in" - as a "non-check in" like we are doing ;) Don't know how - so, Stacy can you help in thats department? I will still post my rotations to this thread until I get through intermediate. I also wanted to thank you both for such a great...

Thanks Linda - I am going to have to read your post again - it was full of advice. Eating healthy is one of my primary goals. I left Weight Watchers years ago because the answer to alot of the diet questions was to buy their food (which was high in sodium/artificial sweeteners) or just eat...

Note to self - when you get excited during a DVD because you finally are getting the "moves" (i.e., LowMax) - remember that there is a step below your feet. If you don't - you shall find the floor fast...need I say more :o Linda - so nice to hear from you...love Leslie's DVDs - use them...

Hey Stacy - you there?! Haven't been on the thread for awhile (Valentines, birthdays, schooling the girls, snow in GA) - been working out though. Love this rotation so far. I posted Week 4 - not many changes. I want to go through this rotation one more week before inserting new DVDs...

I really like that rotation - thanks - I will be making some changes... Donna

Week 3 is on the very first post - I am editing that post each week so that anyone who goes to this thread can see the rotation without going through all the conversation. I agree about LowMax and PLB. I may rethink things. Donna

Have tried at least once - you got to be kidding?! :p I am just scratching the surface - that is why your guidance has been so helpful. I have been blessed with some nice "hand-outs!" Your ideas for cardio and for Week 2 Cathe look good - I will start on my Week 4 and Week 5 plans...

Stacy, Thanks for the reply - BTW, Body Fusion is a beginner circuit workout. It has a warm-up, Cardio 1, Squat/Lunge with weights, Cardio 2, Lunge off step/bicep and leg lifts with weights, Cardio 3, Arm/Chest work with weights, stretch. It is a "mini-version" of Low Impact Circuit. I...

Hey Stacy - you caught me on the computer. They are calling for "SNOW" in Atlanta on Friday - had to check and see if they were bluffing. Good to see you took the day off! I feel for your "backside" - I really do understand. I found that on Friday night (after really pushing it with KPC in...

Thanks for the post "Wisp" - it's nice to see that the posts are helping others. I have been amazed at how much I have learned from Stacy and Linda. Can't imagine if others "chime in." The people on these forums are very supportive and helpful. Just finished Body Fusion, Abs, and Yoga...

Hey! Linda - you check in whenever you can - I plan on posting weekly rotations as I go through Intermediate. If you can check in once a week to give me some advice - I would appreciate it. This thread has taken on a life of its own - and, I know that we all have a life to live. You both...

Linda, I really like your "Beginner = Intermediate" correlation. That helps alot. You have a great set of programs to develop your rotation. I will tell you that LIC cardio only may NOT give you enough cardio time - I am not sure because I did not time it; but, it seemed to go quickly for...

Stacy, Thank you very much. I am very relieved and proud that I "stuck through" Beginner Rotation. I will be slowing down "Couch" as well. I am not in a hurry! Enjoy the snow - are you getting hit pretty hard? Not sure where you live; but, I know that Washington, Pennsylvania, etc...

Stacy (& Linda), Couch25K - that is just what I was looking for - Stacy! Cathe states in each of her weeks during Intermediate and Beginner to walk/run. I did NOT have any idea how to structure that - this will be a great help. HiiT sounds really fun! Not ready for it though! I am just...

Stacy, Thanks for the encouragement. Reassessing and striving through plateaus is tough as you said. I spent all of October, November, and 1/2 of December with not a nudge on the scales. And, I was working harder than I had ever worked before! But, the beauty was in the the inch loss...

Linda, Thanks for the update! Congratulations on 4 pounds - WOW! :D I was glad to see the scale moving down as well - not so much; but, after 4 weeks of no movement - some movement was just great! :eek: "My Fitness Pal" has sure helped me in food journaling! Biking is something I...
