    Regular Step vs High Step?

    I have the regular health club step but not the high step. I notice that some of the DVD's use the high step. Can I use the regular step in place of the high step? What's the difference besides the smaller surface area. I just can't spend the money on the High step right now but could...

    Need help choosing Elliptical...

    I look forward to hearing the answers to this as well. I went looking for ellipticals and all of the less expensive models didn't seem to be as smooth as the ones in the gym. Of course that is the only experience I have with the trainers.

    Like a kid in a candy store :)

    It will probably take between 5 and 6 months. Closer to 6 probably for me. Logistics are definitely easier on the Appalachian Trail vs. the Pacific Crest Trail, but I bet the scenery is just amazing out there where the "real" mountains are. My DVD's should be here next week. So maybe I...

    Need some advice- re: home business

    Jean, I feel your frustrations. I am with a rival company, Stampin' Up, and have the same issues. Trying to get new people involved can be frustrating. I am in the process of making "packets" that have sample cards and info on my classes and stuff. I am hoping to hand them out when I run into...
