    for those that do less cardio?

    I guess it depends on what you mean by *cardio.* When I was doing P90X I stopped running and all traditional forms of cardio(treadmill,elliptical, bike,etc.)I actually thought my stamina/endurance improved. At that point, my only *cardio* was PlyoX, KenpoX and the YogaX(which I don't feel is...

    Thanks, Tneah! I take a GNC multi-vitamin too so now I feel better about getting some more B's.:)

    Is it worthwhile to take a Vitamin B supplement?

    Do you take this in addition to a regular multi-vitamin? I've been curious about adding B's myself but I get some from my multi-vitamin and I don't want to take too much. Thanks!

    A rant on reviews

    This is my favorite of a book that I read many years ago: "Oh dear! I am so glad I checked this out at the library rather than buying it~ I was expecting a good serial killer thriller with college prfessors and a great plot; just this artsy weiting, no plot, no grisly murders, no baffled...

    Oprah & "The New Earth"

    RE: Oprah & Since I am coming to this thread very late I will keep my comments short. My thoughts: 1. I thought that this thread was going to be a *discussion* of A BOOK(and the accompanying webclasses.)It is only A BOOK we are talking about here, right? I guess I'm confused where all of...

    Phil McGraw is insane

    Couple of things: 1.HE did NOT post bail for one of those girls, some of his employees did and they have been reprimanded and, quite possibly, are losing their jobs. 2. He cancelled the plans for the show that he was going to do about the beating of this young girl because he felt those...

    News about Singulair

    Hi Mikkia-- 1. I completely agree about reading the inserts and I agree that the patient has to take responsibility for this. I'm not sure if I said something to make you think that I thought otherwise but I do agree completely. My point about not discontinuing asthma meds was the same point...

    Vitamins?

    Your Centrum is fine for now. Although, I would get a pre-natal as soon as I could(you don't need to run out and get one but if are at a drugstore this week you may want to just pick one up :)) You don't need to get a prescription pre-natal(although your doctor may want to write you a...

    Best island vacation?

    A Big Thank You to everyone! DH and I are seriously considering several of the places mentioned. I am going to start researching air fares right now!:) The winner for what looks like the best place to visit EVER is: Carola! I visited those links last night and I have to tell you it...

    Fluidity?

    But then she goes on to say that each time you do >a push up you use your biceps and consequently need to work >your triceps for balance. I don't know how her physiology >works, but my biceps flex my arm and my triceps extend my arm >(the action of a pushup). I agree with what you are...

    Best island vacation?

    My DH and I are looking to get away for a little while. We've had a rough few weeks and would like to go somewhere and relax. We don't want to travel too far(so no Autralia suggestions, please:) ) but we do want to go someplace warm and beachy. I thought I would ask all of the wonderfully...

    Fluidity?

    Is it good for toning? Yes, but I guess it depends on what you are used to. I tend to build muscle pretty easily so I like to stay away from squats,etc. because then my legs get a little too muscular for my taste. With Fluidity, I have a *leaner* looking muscle. I have doing the workouts...

    Fluidity?

    I can't say enough about how I love my Fluidity! It is possibly the only infomercial piece of equipment that I have bought that was really worth all of the money. I use mine almost everyday. I like the workouts that come with it(Intermediate & Advanced are the best.) I am not a huge fan of...

    Candace's Fit is it Cardio - opinions?

    I honestly have no idea who *pushes* CC or Power 90(I'm assuming you mean P90X.) I know there are a lot of people who like both of those things bt they don't feel the need to defend either to the death if someone says the don't like it. In fact, you can count me as one of the people who has...

    Candace's Fit is it Cardio - opinions?

    Well, I still won't be buying it. These people who have joined the forum for the sole purpose of pushing Candace's work have left less than a pleasant taste in my mouth. Good for Candace, but she really needs to make sure people don't *promote* her product this way. The lack of honesty on...

    Candace's Fit is it Cardio - opinions?

    I agree with everyone else. I think the thing that seems sort of odd is that the only posters *defending* Candace seem to be people who are newly registered and are exclusively posting on CC/Candace threads. It just seems a little suspect to me when someone's only posts are promoting...

    STS male outfits disappointed!

    I am going to have to respectfully disagree that football players pants(baseball players don't wear lycra) look *masculine.* If I saw someone wearing football pants at the gym I would think that it was incredibly odd and unflattering. Let's not forget that those players and athletes(Olympics)...
