    Foot and ankle cramps

    I have a hard time doing shuffles, jumping jacks and any other movement that is long term foot/ankle pumping. It's not my shoes-it's the same whether old or new shoes. As soon as I stop for a new seconds the cramping or lactic acid goes away. But starts again when I go back to those moves. Any...

    Lowey Body Pyramid

    For the step ups I have to put my step at 4 risers instead of 5 as she has them. I have short legs and it's a major cardio strain to try 5 risers. Did this one last night and I'm sore-A good sore [emoji3][emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Slick Nike shoes

    I just switched from Asics to a pair of Nikes Has anyone else found them to have slick soles, especially on the step? It helps me move easier on the floor but I'm a little nervous I'm going to slip on the step. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tip for puzzle mat hand slippage

    This may have already occurred to others but I just discovered putting my hands on one of my resistance bands really helps keep me from slipping during planks and push-ups. I work out on the black puzzle mats. Wish I had thought of it sooner :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Results from ICE....

    I'm seeing some oblique improvement. On the weighted workouts I've been going up a step from Cathe (if 3s I grab 5, if 8 I grab 10 etc). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    When to replace step

    I was a "Firmie" too which led me to Cathe My first step was a cheap and short width one. but I soon found I couldn't do half of Cathe's moves without a proper step--the long gray one. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    When to replace step

    Does anyone have any advice or guidance on when / if a step needs to be replaced? I've had mine 12-15 years and it seems fine. But I wondered if they lose spring or grip over time that I don't see. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Spin workouts on stationary

    I'm going to be at my mom's for two weeks over Christmas and am planning which DVDs to take I can do at her place. She has a stationary bike. Has anyone done a spin dvd workout on one of those? I'm sure I can't do standing pedaling but I thought it would at least help me keep a solid pace...

    Deadlifts -legs vs back

    Thanks all for the tips! My question originated in my mind when I did deadlifts in a leg workout then later that week deadlifts in the same way in a back workout. So I wondered if there was something I should do or focus on differently between the two workouts. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Times per week to spin

    Thanks for the feedback all! This really helps. It's becoming addictive so I'll try to limit it to 1-2 times a week and do other cardio and weights on other days. So when does my butt stop hurting from the cycle seat!? Lol! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Workouts like Horizontal Conditioning

    I had really good results in my arms and core from the Horizontal Conditioning workouts But they have a bit of a dread factor for me. can anyone recommend something similar? I hold weight in my arms (they get even bigger with muscles) and I think all the plank work leans them out. does...

    Easily fatigued feet/calves

    Thanks for the stretches! I'll give it a shot. I just got new aisics a month ago. It helps a little. But I think I'm just really tight in the calves or something. Thanks all! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Easily fatigued feet/calves

    I find my feet and calves get so tired very quickly during a workout with a lot of little jumps (shuffles, jumping jacks, etc) way before I'm "cardio tired" Could it be because they are tight? Any ideas to help? Thank you! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Best hair epilator out there

    It stings at first. My first use I waited until I had a leg full of hair but I do not recommend that lol! Try shaving, waiting a day for a few to "sprout" thru and go from there. Ingrown hairs are an issue but I use exfoliating gloves instead of a washcloth in the shower and I think that...
