    Seeking Reviews of Maximun Intensity Cardio

    I'm probably in the minority here but I thought I might offer a different perspective on this workout. If what you are after is intensity, this will satisfy you. If, however, you are looking for a little more challenge with the choreography, this will probably not do it for you. I...

    Bloodsucking Family Members

    Janice, It is hard to draw the line with family members. I do know what you mean. I struggle with a similar issue - not quite as severe yet. I think of these people as black holes who suck everone else into oblivion with them. They are like a giant vortex. Get caught, even at the edge, and...

    Spring into Summer check-in - 5/20

    Hello everybody, I didn't want you to forget me! I've been concentrating more on yoga and less on weights and cardio, although I have managed to do some of both. I think my focus may have changed. I seem to be less interested in doing eveything twice in one week!! (you no - 2 x each body...

    Spring into Summer 5/11

    Hello and Suprise! I don't have much to report as far as spinging... but I came across a very funny Dave Barry quote (we have one of theose daily calendars) "Let's face it: losing 10 pounds is not going to get you women into bikinis. Not these days, when the strict bodily standards set...

    Spring into Summer - 5/5

    Hello everybody, I dropped in to let you know that I do come here from time to time. I don't really have anything to contribute to the check-in. I did try to do something other than yoga yesterday and it really wasn't fun and didn't feel good (it really was not very hard compared to what I...

    Bikini countdown - April 28

    Yes Kim, I'm sure you (I think this is women) cannot wear shorts in St. Peters. Its probably also true about other areas like the Vatican Museum. But I doubt that it could be enforced in St Peter's Square - which according to Dan Brown really isn't part of Vatican City (don't know if that is...

    O/T Book Recommendation

    I have gotten so many great titles of books to read from posters here that I wanted to share one with all of you. "A Short History of Nearly Everything " by Bill Bryson I learned of Bill Bryson from this site ("A Walk in the Woods" was recommended and I thoroughly enjoyed it.) Happy...

    Bikini countdown - April 28

    Hi everyone, Thanks for remembering me. Welcome back Pinky. Glad you had such a good time. I'm still doing yoga and not much else. I can't seem to want to do a workout that might aggravate my leg/groin/hip. I did make a dr appt for tomorrow, so I'll see what she says - probably step one...

    Intensity, Intensity, Intensity?

    Very well put Clare. Just one observation. If you follow the ever-increasing-intensity philosophy, be it cardio or weights, you (an individual) will eventually come to a point where you can go no faster or no heavier.

    Hi Gang, I just dropped by to say hello and tell you that i'm reading all of your (plural) adventures with interest. And thank you for remebering me. I'm still taking it easy and finding time for yoga. I did have a session with Christie yesterday (hi/lo happy hour) -joy

    Christi Taylor

    Another Christi fan checking in here, but I need to tell you that I find her step workouts more difficult to learn than her Hi/Lo. Give her hi/lo a try and see what you think. -joy

    Re: Scuba Divers?

    Hi Erin, It has been a long time since I dove but I can tell you that yes it gets better. The first real dive I went on I was very nervous and I sucked a tank of air in about 10 minutes (it was 80 cf at 3000 psi so we are talking some fantastic sucking here) I eventually got certified in cave...

    Bikini Countdown 4/16

    Hello everyone, Thank you for the greetings, kind words and encouragement. I managed to do PUB (up only) but I decided to do it as drop sets. I think that is what you call it when you keep the weight the same but reduce the number of reps with each set. So since I hadn't done any...
