Janie, Thanks for sharing your wisdom on the subject. I really appreciate all the time you have put into answering my questions and everybody else's. Paleo might not be for everyone physically or mentally but I am so glad that it has done wonders for you!

I haven't done it yet but it looks TOUGH! The MMAs have 7.5. Does that seem correct? Or maybe I don't understand MET values, which is entirely possible. Susan

Natty, I previewed CCC and I am a little bit scared. More pushups tomorrow. I may never do this challenge! I seriously don't know how they can do the burpees and go down into a pushup as soon as their toes hit the ground... As for Step Moves, I watched that with my mouth gaping open...

Hi Everyone! Sorry I have been quiet. It was a busy weekend. My daughters keep me so busy between soccer practices, games, swimming, etc. I am going non stop, and these next 2 weeks are going to be the busiest of my life. My normal busy schedule is further complicated by the school Talent...

Thanks Ellie!

Hi Elsie, I have considered the Paleo diet too, but I am not quite ready to give up wheat. Then I found about no grains or legumes and I just can't get my head around that. I am not sure if I will ever do it. But if you are struggling with weight around your midsection, it doesn't hurt to...

Well, I have been a slacker and haven't done my test yet. Today I had 4DS HIS on the agend which has chest and back, so I wanted to make sure to not overdo it with the pushups. I also added on shoulders and abs from 4DS LIS. A good long work out today since I took the day off of work. The...

Ellie/Natty - I am so happy for you both. I am starting that rotation tomorrow but unfortunately I have to really mix up the order just due to my schedule. I can only do long workouts on the weekends (like Bodymax 2) so the only thing I have made sure of is that I don't do do weight work on...

Glad to see I am not alone in my morning workouts. I get up at 5am, have about 8 ounces of water and am working out by 5:20. How quickly do you go from waking up to working out? And do you eat or drink beforehand? Susan

Just to make sure I am on the same page, our initial count will be number of consecutive full push ups on toes, no breaks and no drops to knees. Is that right? I am happy that I can do any. In high-school we had fitness tests and I could do ZERO! How embarrassing

That is taking FOREVER!!! :confused:

Oh my gosh... I didn't even introduce myself. It didn't even occur to me until NATTY did it (you should have told me to stop calling you Natasha LOL) I am 38 soon to be 39 in May :( and live in the Chicago suburbs. Have always lived in Chicagoland. I work full time for a finance company...

Thanks for getting us started. I am not off to a good start. I did 4DS bootcamp today and nearly died in the last drill (ruuuuuuuun, drop and do pushups), the last 8 nearly killed me, but I did them. Not sure if I cheated, but I know my arm at least bent at the elbows. I honestly don't know...

Just heard the old Salt n Pepper song "Push It" on the radio. Now that is one crazy sign... Prince's Purple Rain is on now ...wonder what that means. :-) probably a sign I need to change the station.

Hi Janie, I have been living under a rock and just recently found out about this Paleo Diet :o Not sure how that's possible!!! I am not on it, but I listen to the various podcasts out there. Maybe some day I will do it, but no plans right now. I am not ready to give up grains. I am...

Natasha, no I don't have Jillian's Killer Buns & Thighs. I put a hold on it from my library but there are 4 people ahead of me. It will be a loooong time before it comes my way. You seem to be the Jillian guru here, so I thought I would ask. I have a lot of her workouts too, but she seems to...

Step blast is great fun too and I would say higher intensity than RS.

Natasha - do you have Jillian's Killer Buns and Thighs? If so what do you think? If anyone else has it, I'd love to hear what you think. I have to do a lot of lower body workouts so I get bored and like a ton of variety. I have all of Cathe's (have not done LBB yet but will be doing it soon...

If you can master 4DS, I think you need to give RS another try!!! :) And I love the Hip Hop Repeater (I first saw this in LIS, which I did before 4DS). And oh I love the Madonna too. Cathe looks so cute doing that. I know I don't look anywhere near that cute LOL Susan

I don't, but a lot of folks on this forum were interested. Can't wait to hear what you think! Susan
