    Xer's Check In for 12/12!

    X, Thanks so much for replying! You're so right - I am a little hesitant because these workouts are not the same intense style as I'm used to with Cathe, so I'm kind of like, "I don't know if this will really work." I'm going to take your advice and trust the process. I'm glad you told me...

    Xer's Check In for 12/12!

    Hey, everyone! Sounds like everyone's really "Bringing It" today! I'm starting to think that maybe I need to switch to the P90X Classic rotation. I'm doing the P90X Lean now. Can one do that? Who else is doing the Lean version? I'm just starting Week 2 today! It kind of feels cool to...

    Xer's CheckIn 12/10 SUNDAY

    Well, I already feel so welcome! Thanks everyone! Traci, right now I'm doing the rotation as it is written in the book, but I would like to do some substitutions. I'm not quite sure how without spoiling the whole program. I would like to do an occasional Cathe, or running and I noticed the...

    Xer's CheckIn 12/10 SUNDAY

    Hey, everyone! Just wanted to see if it was OK if I joined this check in. I am just finishing Week 1 today, so I haven't gotten very far, but I'm really enjoying the workouts. I've been doing Cathe for a couple of years, so I'm in decent shape, but want to get more toned and leaner. I'm...

    White Elephant Gift

    I have to go to my office Christmas party on Saturday and we always exchange white elephant gifts. I can never think of anything good, and this year, I want it to be hilarious! What ideas have you guys seen that might be good white elephant gifts?

    P90x Lean

    Thanks for the link, Kathryn. Yes, I did mean back work, not chest work, in my earlier post. I found it, and I'm also thinking of getting one of those resistance bands, since the only one I have is the green one Cathe uses. Is that acceptable for using? Does anyone know from experience if you...

    Need Help Picking Out Workout Vids.

    I'd go with Drill Max and Boot Camp/Muscle Endurance.

    P90x Lean

    Sparrow, I'm bumping this because I'd like to know too. I just received P90X last week and I'm wanting to start the Lean rotation. I'm also interested in how anyone anchored the resistance bands for the chest work, since I KNOW there's no way I'll be able to do the pull-ups. I've previewed a...

    The "Everything About P90X" Thread

    RE: Sunnyside... Another question. . . How long does it take to receive the P90X series? I ordered mine on Saturday, November 11, and haven't gotten a delivery confirmation yet. Does it usually take a while to receive it?

    The "Everything About P90X" Thread

    RE: The Shelley, I was also wondering how heavy men are to go on these workouts? My DH wants to start working out again, and is interested in this series. I have bought a barbell set to do my Cathe's and I have dumbbells up to 15 pounds, but I doubt they will be heavy enough. Can you give...

    Kick Butt Boot Camp with Mindy Mylrea

    You know, personally, I love Mindy's on screen goofy presence and she really makes me smile! I loved her Interval Express, so I ordered the Kick Butt Boot Camp. I wasn't impressed with it. I'm not sure why. It doesn't have anything to do with being off beat as that doesn't bother me. I guess...

    Will someone please tell me what their Bodyblast Timesaver DVD looks like?

    I just sold my copy on E-bay a couple of weeks ago, but I remember that mine did not have a thin case - it was in a regular case that Cathe normally has her DVD's in.

    Has anyone done Cardio Fusion. . .

    and lived to tell about it? I previewed it this morning with the intention of doing it this evening, and it seems like a killer! I don't know how anyone can handle those Drill Max drills right after the Power Circuits from BM2! What did you think?

    Filene's Basement

    I totally agree with the above poster! My sister-in-law and I heard that it was terrific, so when we were in Chicago went to one we didn't really have the time or the patience to dig through all the crap. I'm sure there is some good stuff if you can find it.

    my workouts

    Boy, Rebecca, I don't have an answer for you, but I sure would like to hear if anyone has any advice about the inner thigh area. I workout like crazy, and I'm happy with the rest of my body, but not those inner thighs!

    How to get better with stability ball

    That is exactly how I feel! I have no advice for you, but I just did PLB last night and I was almost crying with frustration because I could not do those hamstring exercises properly, and I wasn't able to finish the sets. I, too, move my legs around, and can't figure out how to do this...

    Pikes on ball

    Pyramid Upper Body has the pikes on the ball - I just did this one tonight! I still totally stink at them and barely get my behind up at all!

    Tracey Staehle

    I think I previewed her workouts at www.fitbytracey.com. I previewed the High Intensity Step Mix. I'm still waiting to hear a few more reviews. It looks fun, but the steps seem pretty complicated.

    schools punishing with food

    Sara, I've seen your post before, but just now had time to respond. I am an elementary public school teacher and frankly, can't believe this at all! Yes, it's terrible that they withhold the snacks from the kids for punishments. I don't believe in punishments, but "consequences." If the...

    Love the premixes!!

    I know! I wasn't planning on ordering Body Max 2 because it was too long to fit in my schedule, but after seeing the premixes, I HAVE to get it!! Anyone else wonder what, "Scrambled Eggs," mean? I hope she doesn't mean "Scrambled LEGS!" Steph
