Some people say its cheating, but for those of us who cannot do a strict pullup, is it better to do more of those until you can do one strict pullup, or are negatives better?? Also what is your favorite ab exercise in the new sts series?? everyone has a favorite right ;-)

I have no idea! I use 1 Pood and 1.5 Poods - I have no idea how heavy those are, but that is what I do kettleball swings and such with - they work super awesome!!

Definitely add in the weights! More muscle burns more fat!! Your nutritionist might be thinking you will overeat or something if you do a strenuous program, but weight training is sooooooo the key along with healthy diet ( imo ) - - I cut back on my cardio and I up my strength training when...

Ok so I just joined Crossfit - signed up for a month. I just don't get it!!! The whole idea behind Crossfit is that it incorporates everything into one program, BUT the "WOD" or workout of the day is totally random?? SO if its totally random - how do you track progress?? I am so used to Cathe...

Negative pullups are a great way to start Use a "Gravitron" if you have access to one Jumping pullups also help build up that strength One leg on a chair also helps There is a thing called "kipping pullups" as well - some people will say this is cheating but its also just another...

Check your classified ads and used or second hand stores - fitness equipment goes to waste in most homes......

RE: What is a Thanks! I knew i could count on you guys :()

Anyone - can someone describe this to me?

ok yikes! That looks freaky right there!!! I gotta tell you guys that row machine is an awesome workout!!! I had no idea! 400 meters in less than two minutes repeated several times over and I felt it ;)

I am lucky! I will keep you posted on what I find out - I emailed my trainer and will see what he comes up with. I know he already said he would NOT recommend long distance running but if i wanted to run - he would prefer me doing a 400 meter - rest 1 min - 400 meter - rest - ect because the...

I am in the one on one sessions right now - - so basically working on technique and form and then doing a WOD but its not what they are posting online - its the Omaha NE affiliate - I just cannot believe how SORE my shoulders are today! I dont remember using them! I did box jumps, dead lifts...

So I just started this last week - so far every workout has truly kicked my butt!!! They now offer a discounted rate to go just three times a week - so I figured I would sign up and see what happened. I wanted to try this last year but it was too much money. Anyone have any comments or have...

In order to do the Upper Body and Total Body workouts you need quite a bit of strength first just to get through them, but because of the length and max reps on most exercises - i would say they are "fitness" oriented. Not sure that makes sense.......but there is no way a beginner will get...

What is the difference?? please explain Kathrynn - also if you had to choose between a Luna bar or a SunBelt Granola bar - which is better? My hubby buys those stupid Sunbelt Granola bars, but I think they are just as bad as candy bars....

Does anyone know when they plan on changing the rates on the presale? I want to order before then but its hard to tell when they plan on doing it? I am just not ready to have the conversation with my husband about justifying buying more dvds ;) It gets so dang tiresome to have to justify...

I agree - do the P90X rotation first. I hate the cardio in P90X so I subbed for any other cardio. Now I have purchased the X+ and I use the interval x cardio in place of PlyoX and I use KenpoX+ in place of the original which really sucked in my opinion.... I love yoga - Brian Kest is my...

Its money and timing for sure! If this would have come out BEFORE Xmas - I would be buying it as a gift to myself or asking for it from my husband. But it came out AFTER Xmas when everyone is sick of spending money, sick of credit card bills from shopping and just ready to get back into normal...

Will you post in the STS forum or directly on the home page??

Abs plus is ROCKING! I love that freaking workout! I had really hard time keeping my hands on the pullup bar and raising my legs and stuff for the ab parts, so after awhile I figured out that by modifying my arm position to "one hand in the front position grasping the pullup bar and the...

I just did the Interval X and Abs/Core X last night for the 2nd time last night. Interval X ROCKS! I love this workout - its 40 mins long - my heartrate stayed in the 80% category throughout most of the workout or higher - once I hit that mark, it was pretty much there the whole time or...
