We understand. Welcome back. I have a very dear friend with spinal stenosis who recently had surgery performed in NY city by a surgeon who has great expertise in this area and with this kind of surgery. My friend is a doctor who through his connections was able to find this back surgeon...

Hello Jane, Tammy, Becky and all who follow, Becky, we are continuing to keep Alex in our thoughts and prayers. Continue to keep us posted. Jane- hope you get some good sleep this evening. If you get home very late, it may be a good idea to postpone your workout till tomorrow so that you...

I think the only thing you might lose is the total amount of afterburn calories on a per week basis but you might gain more energy to do the next workout with some more timeoff spaced between workouts and so expend more calories during the workout. Recovery time is important too and you would be...

Hi, I just posted a review of the NordicTrack AudioStrider 990 on this forum about a week or so ago. Its great. I got it on sale at Sears. I don't know if its still on sale. I am pasting my review here so that you don't have to hunt for it. I have tested several other models and found the...

Hello ladies, I like LowMax too Jane. Its a good lactic acid leg burner. Yesterday was an unplanned DOR (guess its OK as my lest DOR was last Tuesday) as I was feeling awful. Had a very long day at work and literally felt like I was falling asleep late afternoon...not just drowsy...and...

RE: APPROVAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... Congratulations! Let us know what the topic is. What field are you in?

I ordered them and like them too. I use them primarily for doing incline and decline upper body work and for lunges. I regulate the rise of the incline by placing 1 or 2 or...... more under one side and none under the other. I workout on carpeting and it doesn't slip. If you work out on a bare...

Hi Beth, I continue the up and down game too when I opt not to use my selectTech and use my standard dumbells or barbell instead. I consider the step running with weights part of my exercise. The selectTech while no substitute for standard weights are a great addition for alot of weight work.

Good morning Phyllis and Tammy and everyone who signs on later, Welcome Beth. Tammy, I hear you about needing another job to support our exercise habits. LOL Last night: Cathe StepHeat with abs. Have a great day ladies. Cathy

Good morning Phyllis and Jane and everyone else who signs on later. Hope you fell better soon Phyllis. Good luck with the LB rotation. Yesterday: Leaner Legs (minus abs) plus the inner and outer thigh work (with bodybar) from Pure Strength and Leg Extensions on Bowflex. Have a good day.

Hi, I would finish the rotation and see if it worked for you. I am one who was not at all happy with the results. I followed the program faithfully and lost definition and strength in my arms and legs and thought I looked puffier allover too. My back looked good however but that was about it...

Clarissa, I hope everything is OK. My heart dropped when I read your post. ERs are suppossed to triage people based on the apparent or possible severity of their condition when they arrive and they shouldn't be taking people in order of arrival. If that is what happened, I would investigate...

Hi, I have the 52.5 lb bowflex set too. Here is a review I posted on another fitness website a while ago. "About 8 months ago I purchased adjustable dumbells thinking I could replace my standard dumbbells and that the system would take up less space. In my opinion adjustable dumbells...

Hello ladies, Phyllis- I do like all of Cathe's step workouts including her older ones. This last month I have been doing a lot of her older stuff to mix things up. Before that I was doing her more recent step workouts including those on 4D split and RS. QFS abs is Gilads ab workout from his...

Hi everyone, I will use the daily post to record what I did the previous day, as I don't usually workout out till after I come back from work which is usually late and much later by the time I get on the boards. I also like to post after I have done the workout as opposed to what I am planning...

Thanks for the article. I am posting a summary from another article on the subject of morning vs later exercise (doesn't address HIIT or other topics). I think when we read these articles, we need to make sure opinion is backed up by scientific studies and documentation.In the previous article...

Hello everyone, I am exhausted. Flew into Boston Monday evening, got back yesterday late afternoon, then had to leave early this am for a meeting early morning in NY and got back late afternoon and have to leave again for ny tomorrow again. Tuesday I used as a DOR. Wednesday evening...

Forgot to add that the accitrainer also measures pace during your workouts and uses this in addition to your hr to calculated calories burned.It also measures distance traveled. You enter height, weight and other stats and can follow your progress workout to workout and follow each workout...

Hi everyone, I like RS too Jane. Had to workout this morning as I am leaving for a buisness trip directly after work tonight. Am flying to Boston. Will be back late afternoon Wednesday. Have meetins tomorrow from 8 am till 9 pm and so no workout for me tomorrow. I guess thats OK, my last...
