I have been doing STS for 6 weeks or so, and one thing that surprised me was how long the rest in between sets. I love lifting and weight training, even bought my very first barbell set. But when you see that the workout can be an hour or more long, it sounds really tough. But you get so much...

Thank you for your response! The step classes at the y were incredibly intense! So much that I could only do half of the jumping Jack's, never did some of the other high impact (like 60 seconds of mountain climbers,etc). We did take a break between songs, only long enough for a drink of water...

HI! I joined On Demand about a month ago. Before that , I was a YMCA member. I did the Step Up class twice a week (absolutely brutal class, led by a 57 year old drill sergeant!) , and Zumba once a week. It was TOUGH, but I always went the full hour. Now, at home, I can barely make it through a...

Oh, yeah, upper body part sharing! Bring it on! Funny you mention gluten and thyroid. My boss's wife has thyroid problems and celiac disease. She went gluten free and saw a lot of improvements. My ultrasound was normal and blood work should be back today. I will have to research going gluten...

Turquoise eyes, I, for one, can use all the help I can get up top! Lol! Bigger there is a bonus to me! It sounds like you have had severe physical problems also. Do you mind details? I had major back surgery 2 years ago and still deal with pain issues. But working out helps so much, both...

I just wanted to Shaw results from this morning. Yesterday, instead of eating my usual sleeve of whole wheat crackers throughout the day, I substituted hard boiled eggs and yogurt. Did a great 45 minute step workout last night and 15 minutes of Sts in the morning. Scale today is DOWN from 178...

I think I am going to revamp my eating again also. I am the kind of person who likes to eat basically the same foods every day for breakfast and lunch. Not so much to think about that way. I am a carb lover, though, so have to remedy that! I try for lean protein, good carbs, etc, but boy, is...

Wow! Very well said, and just what I needed to hear! Ok, the scale is going bye bye! I am impressed by your weight loss though! 160 lbs , I couldn't even imagine the strength of character that took! Thank you so much!

I started Cathe on demand about 3 weeks ago, and also started back on my good eating plan, documenting my intake, etc. I weigh myself once a week or so. I had a small circuit step with no risers, which was ok for the moment because of my past back surgeries. I can do a little high impact but...

I had an Appaloosa stallion that I showed until I sold him about 10 years ago. Riding was one of the things that did my back in! I haven't ridden since. But you can if your horse has a smooth gait. Be very careful doing workouts! Your body needs a chance to heal. Low impact, no or low weights...

A good website to visit is spine-health.com. The forum is great and a lot of good info. Also, I recently found some great articles at www.michaelnbrownmd.com. He opened my eyes to a lot!

I can tell you anything you would ever want to know about anything back related! I had degenerative disc disease (have, actually). The injections do work a lot of times. They only hurt for a minute or so, until the numbing shot takes effect. I just close my eyes and hold on to the pillow and...

Recommended weight for your height, even for a small frame, is 120 to 133. What is your goal?? Compared to a lot of us, that is pretty darned good!

Wow, I am 5'6" and can only DREAM of being 133!!

I just started the On Demand, and the monthly rotation. I have been having difficulty due to age (52), menopause, and recent back surgery. I received TONS of support responses to my initial post about where to start, etc. I am happy to report that after only 10 days in, I am down 4 pounds...

Both speed tests were the same..about .82 mbps. Pathetic! I called and upgraded. The most any residential can get via wireless is 10. So we will see. They work perfect at my work, and since I have 45 minutes alone in the early morning, I have been doing the weight training then! I work at an...

Found the button...thanks

I don't see an HD button anywhere. Is this while the video is playing? All I see is a timer in the left bottom corner beside the play/pause button, and in the right bottom there is a "share" with the full screen toggle. I am checking with Verizon now about my internet speed. It is supposed to be...

Since nobody replied to my problem, I will post it here. On my laptop and my Kindle, which I regularly play videos on, the streaming either stops and starts every few seconds, or stops halfway through. It is getting very irritating and I am going to cancel if it continues.

Thank you, Reneepruitt! Not offended at all! Just their opposite! Rosamor, I did the bikes at the Y (the reclined type) and it worked good but hurts my si joints because of the seat. But as long as I go at my own pace, I seem to be ok. Now if I could get the streaming to go right, I will be...
