Just wondering if anyone uses insoles in their athletic shoes and, if so, whether you think they help. My knees get stiff and a bit sore from working out sometimes. Perhaps insoles would help. Any recommendations? Have a great night!

I really like the taste (and convenience!) of Gardenburger Veggie Burgers. The ingredients don't look so bad, but they are processed of course. The ingredients are: Ingredients Cooked Brown Rice, Broccoli, Corn, Carrots, Bell Peppers (Red, Green), Onions, Rolled Oats, Canola Oil, Water...

I was so excited about the RT announcement, because I turn 40 in August, and what a great present it would be. But when I added up the expenses of getting there, etc., it came to over $1,000. That's kind of a lot for me. Anyone else out there who can't afford it and can share in my misery...

Just wondering if anyone has ever ordered from the Athleta catalogue or on-line, and, if so, what the quality was like. Some of their clothes look cute and comfortable, and I like that their models look fit and athletic. It's a bit pricy for me, but sometimes I think about just ordering one...

He said, "Looks like you'll need to spend some money on much heavier weights." And it's so true! More plates, dumbbells, ugh! But for a good cause, of course. Have a great evening, everyone!

Just wanted to let you guys know that Target is selling the original version of Perfect Pushup for $39.99, but you get a $10 gift card back. So, if you're a regular Target shopper, I suppose it's like getting it for $29.99, which is the best price I've seen for the higher-priced version yet. I...

Has anyone tried Relastin face or eye cream? I was considering trying it, but it's not cheap. I wonder if it's really much better than some of the better drug store face products. Let me know if you have any input. Have a great Sunday. (Go Pats!)

Is it safe to assume that Plate Mates cannot be used with rubber-coated dumbbells or plates? I was hoping they could be, but I doubt it. Any idea?

Has anyone tried the Ryka N-Gage Studio Mid shoe? I know there are endless posts about shoes, but I am still having a hard time finding one that works well for me. If anyone has this shoe (or any good shoe, for that matter!) and could let me know what you think, I'd appreciate it. Thanks for...

A flu shot, that is. They're available at my local grocery store tomorrow and, like every year, I'm going back and forth on whether or not to get one. What do you guys do?

Does anyone know if there is any benefit to taking supplements such as "Osteo Bi-Flex," or other similar ones that claim to help "lubricate" joints and reduce joint pain and stiffness? I sure would spend the money on them if it would make my knees feel better, but for some reason, I'm a bit...

I'm doing a S&H rotation for a few weeks, and I'm wondering . . . for anyone who's done a S&H rotation, did you use S&H Legs, or did you substitute something else? I know S&H Legs is a bit shorter than Cathe's other leg workouts, and I only work legs once a week, so I'm wondering what to do...

Hello there. Has anyone tried the Olay Definity line? I like the Regenerist line, but since Olay came out with a new line (as they always do), I'm wondering whether to try it. Any thoughts?

Hello everyone. I'm wondering how often you generally wear your workout shoes before replacing them. It's harder for me to tell than with my running shoes, since the tread doesn't wear out quickly working out on carpet. Thanks in advance for any input! Have a great weekend.

Does anyone know if one is expected to buy something at those home-hosted parties? I just moved into a neighborhood, and the woman across the street gave me an invitation to a "jewelry party." It's really not up my alley, and I don't want to spend money. On the other hand, I would like to...

Hello. I have a question for those of you who exercise in the morning. I recently (on Tuesday) started exercising early (get up at 4:45 and start by 5:15) instead of my usual afternoon time. I've noticed that with the change I'm more short of breath during the workouts. (I even had to pause...

What do you guys think? Is DM harder than BC? I suppose I should try it and find out, but I want to know what I'm in for first! Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone. Does anyone know how heavy the ankle weights are that Cathe uses in her leg workouts? (I believe she uses ankle weights in L&G and B&G, right?) How much weight does she have on each ankle? (More than I can handle, I'm sure. But I need to know what to work up to!) Thanks in...

Hello everyone. For those of you who have Leaner Legs, how much weight do you use on the barbell? Cathe says at the beginning that she is using 35 lbs. on hers, but it looks like she is using 25 lbs.. (It looks like 2 10-lb. plates on a 5-lb. bar.) What do y'all do? Thanks a bunch.

Hello everyone. I'm wondering if anyone can give me some suggestions about what Cathe cardio workouts and/or premixes to do if I only have 30 minutes. (I sometimes like to tack on a quick cardio session after a weight workout, but I usually only have about 30 minutes.) I've used MIC hi/lo a...
