    Anybody take STS to the gym?

    That is how I am planning on using the heavy lifting cycles. I will probably just take the workout guide with me, not the DVD. I don't have the room in my house...we downsized from 3000+ sq ft to 1200 sq. ft. I also can't justify the expense of purchasing all the extra equipment while paying my...

    when is your HR too low?

    Good info, thank you! But now I'm depressed. :( My hubby can't even walk around the block and he's more cardiovascularily fit than me? I run 20-30 miles a week, spin 3x a week, and am doing Insanity on top of other various activities. Life is so not fair!!!!:( Becky

    when is your HR too low?

    I don't know what is *normal* for you but my DH (who is NOT in shape at all) has a really low heartrate, usually just around 50. My son (younger and better shape, but no athlete) runs in the upper 40s. My pulse tends to run higher , 77,and I'm the one who works out. I think it's a case of...

    Why Does my House Never Seem Clean?!

    Absolutely! Cleaning puts me in such a bad mood because everything looks amazing...until one of the boys get home....or the girls take a shower and leave 999 hairs all over.....or the dog comes in with muddy paws....or cats bring in a bird......usually happens within 30 seconds of finishing...

    Happy Monday ladies! Going to cycle tonight. Had a great PT session. I think I am going to start going, injured or not, approx. every 6 months for a couple sessions.

    Shoes for INSANITY?

    Sorry for another shoe question...but what are you wearing for INSANITY? I'm really looking for something with lots of cushion as I'm a pretty heavy person to be jumping around like that. My running shoes are not cushioned enough. :( Thank you!!! :D Becky

    Deluxe dvds can be ordered seperately for 44.95 plus 12.95 shipping and handling. I didn't actually place the order because the s&h charge is making me choke. I ordered the P90X PLUS dvds and had a special offer for priority shipping for $5 total s&h! If you contact customer service they'll take...

    yoga x

    I love yoga x! I am probably an advanced beginner and I find it doable, but certainly not too easy or boring. There are a lot of modifiers for beginners which I appreciate but it's also exciting to see what I could achieve when my flexibility increases. It IS long, but I have stopped it after...

    At home bikini wax?

    I use a hard wax as well called Surgi Wax...no strips, very happy. I can do an *almost Brazilian* with it. Although I did just splurge and get a salon full Brazilian :eek: Expensive, but so much faster! Happy waxing! LOL! Becky
