DH - Dear Husband or Darling Husband I don't text either! Marcy

Melissa - Great workout! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MELISSA! Hope you have a great day! Can't wait to hear what your family has planned for you. Marcy

Good Morning! I did the original Pure Barre this morning. Used 8# for bis, shoulders, back and 8s and 5s for chest and tris. My legs were shaking on the part of the standing portion. I think this is the only workout where my legs shake as much as this. Rhonda - It was great to finally...

Jane - I'm glad the aide is workout out and your Mom is doing well. Sorry to hear about your dad. You're lucky to have such special parents and you're doing a great job taking care of your parents. Try not to let your sister get you down. Just know that you are doing the best thing possible...

Jane - I think the last time I did HSTA (a long time ago!), I used 30#. This was with the barbell, right? How is the aide working out with your parents? How are your parents doing? Melissa - Yes, KB workouts are definitely time-efficient. Marcy

Thanks everyone for your congratulations! I'll say it again, consistency is key in anything you do. I actually got right up today on the first try and felt like I was able to keep lengthening. I felt so tall standing on my head! Deanie - Have a great vacation! Jane - How heavy did you...

Good Morning! I did Altar of the Heart this morning.:D Had a great practice. Did headstand for 33 seconds! A new record! Also did shoulderstand in lotus again. This is such a relaxing practice and the scenery and music are beautiful. I also feel so stretched out. Melissa -...

Good Afternoon! Sorry for posting so late but I had to get out a bunch of holiday cards at work. I did Shred #2 and #3 back to back (first time doing that!) Great workout. Used 13# for #2 for most of the workout and went up a couple of reps here and there. For #3, I had clean & presses...

Good Afternoon! No workouts yet this weekend. I am scheduled to get Shock Cardio on Tuesday! I looked at the HIIT clips and lots of them look very similar to me but they look nice and high impact. I'm glad that they're short so I can do other workouts on the same day. I'm looking...

Good Afternoon! I did Cathe's Boot Camp Cardio premix this morning and Spring, Summer & Fall (and a little bit of Winter) from Yoga Radiance. Wasn't able to do the tripod headstand but did manage side crow and bird of paradise for about two seconds. I love bird of paradise but this is the...

Good Morning! Today is our holiday luncheon so I made sure I did a calorie blasting workout - Amy's Kickbox Surge. It was great as usual. This seems to be one DVD I will never tire of. Didn't have time for Surge 5 and abs but still had a great workout! My HR went up to 98%! Hopefully...

Good Afternoon! I started out with 1 pullup and 2 chinups. Then I did 3 sets of 5 deadlifts at 82#. I don't know how you guys do 175#! My main workout was the original Squeeze. Used 5# for mostly all upper body except for biceps where I used 8#. Skipped the buns and thighs segment...

Good Afternoon! Got up a little late this morning so wound up doing Slim & Tone Pilates (for the first time). It was okay but not my favorite. Last two-step class tonight. Rhonda - Good job getting Low Max done! Deanie - Congratulations on your PR! Jane - Good job getting your...

Good Afternoon! I started out my workout with 1 pullup and 3 chinups. Then went on to deadlifts. 3 sets of 5 at 62#, 67# and then 72#. I finally did the last of my 3 Budokons - Strength & Balance. This is the shortest of the three: Real practice ends at 38:33; meditation ends at 48:25. Out of...

My favorite Cathe step DVD is Rhythmic Step. I also like High Intensity Step and Low Intensity Step from 4 Day Split and Step Blast. You might want to try Low Max which I would say is about the same complexity as Step Blast. But IMAX 2 is also a good one to move on with. I would say it's...

Liz, Power Max is on the Cardio Hits DVD along with Step Fit and Step Works. The Cardio Classics DVD has Step Max, Step Heat and Step Jam. I don't know about Mega Step Blast but Step Blast is on the same DVD with Step, Jump & Pump. Marcy

Rhonda - Patrick Goudeau makes Hard Work Conditioning. Marcy

Good Afternoon! I did Hard Work Conditioning this morning. Used 8 and 10#. Went up a little on some exercises. Great functional fitness, compound moves workout. Got up a little late so wasn't able to finish a few exercises in the 2nd half like the burpees, windmills and turkish getups. I...
