Last years' RT, in most regards, was the highlight of my fitness life...challenging classes, met Cathe's crew...most of the other attendees I enjoyed meeting as well. My only drawback was I felt at times I was part of a large STS infomercial, and some attendees I didn't care for in the...

Please don't think I am knocking anyone who wants this series, to each their own, and if this series gives you the results you're looking for, rock on!! That said, I follow two guidelines when I exercise...form and safety must take first priority, which is why I cannot do Cathe's step tapes...

I just watched 10 minutes of this infomercial, all I can say is..to each his/her own, but this doesn't look safe to me at all, this looks more like voluntary torture. I mean, there are times I test myself, but there are limits as to how far I'll go..this is way too far, I was shocked watching this.

I don't think Cathe would change a winning fomula, at least I hope not!!

Ohhh, live it up!!! 2 weekends ago, I was drenched in BBQ sauce from a day long festival of BBQ and Blues, followed by a few pints at an air-conditioned bar. I was back working out Monday.

At least in my opinion, there is somewhat of a misconception that for a workout to be effective, it has to make you "cry uncle". That's simply not true. I have used the "talk test" to measure perceived exertion, and when something's too hard, I don't do it. Case in point...Drill Max...it got to...

Whenever I use GS or S/H, I use them exclusively, and only for 3 weeks at a time, max. I am currently doing a month-long rotation of Muscle Max 3x a week, cardio 3x a week, this works well for me because I can give both weights and cardio equal attention.

It's less than 2 weeks until NFL training camps open. The Phillies have won 10 of 11. Springsteen is coming to the Spectrum, will be digging this more if I can somehow snag tickets. As always, digging working out with the best in the fitness world!!

Here's Farfel as a boxing corner dog!!! http://www.yourememberthat.com/media/466/Nestle_Quik_Commercial_With_Farfel/

Sorry, but when it comes to advertising and dogs...Farful rules.. there's a clip you can click on the webpage to catch a true legend in action. http://www.angelfire.com/ky3/venthaven/fom/figure2.html

Truer words never came off your keyboard, Gayle.

Not a big fan of the advertising, either. The only e-mails I want to receive from Cathe/SNM are the ones like we received today, regarding Shock Cardio updates.

This forum spat is brought to you by Eggland's Best, with more Omega 3's, so you can spat longer.

Settling in with a cold virtual Heineken Light and buffalo wings..this has gotten more exciting than the average Super Bowl!

I take a recovery week from any sort of weight training every 8 weeks. Works wonders for me.

If you are brand new to weight training, I have to recommend Cathe's Slow & Heavy series...the form pointers she gives are spot on...it's hard to believe that this series is almost 10 years old!!! It is great!!!!! Heck, even if you've lifted before, this is still worth it. If I had to choose one...

Or, you could eat a low fat, complex carbohydrate snack about an hour before your workout, and a protein based meal after your workouts, thereby ditching the need for any type of supplement altogether.

I get the workout.. DW gets the booklet and coupons.. DW cooks us a great breakfast after my workout!! Sounds like a win-win to me!

I don't drink coffee until I've had my workout. I don't drink coffee after 6pm. Those are my only rules as far as consumption goes.

It takes alot more than one screw up to undo all the good you've done. Don't be so hard on yourself for being human, you're doing great to lose 7 pounds. The only thing I'll disagree with is your choice of places..when I want to cheat, a plate of buffalo wings slathered with blue cheese dressing...
