    Where do you store your equipment?

    I do not have an exercise room. I had good intentions of exercising in my son's room when he's not at home, but he always has some stuff on the floor and I do not feel like cleaning it up every time I need to exercise! I'm thinking I should exercise in my livingroom - I can cushion the...

    My DD may have scoliosis - anyone dealing with this?

    During a routine physical, her ped noticed that one of her shoulders were lower than the other and has ordered xrays for this Saturday. My dd copes with severe food allergies and I just want to weep that something ELSE has been thrown across my athletic and spirited little girl . . . *sigh*

    I've tried Secrets, Dove, Degree, which all claim to be invisible - not even showing up on the little black dress - yeah, right!!! I just noticed I have white power marks under my armpits!! Does such a thing exist?

    Unwanted/unsoliciated advice at gym today!!

    I can't believe this happened to me!!! I read about this happening to others, but I've never experienced it until today! I went to the gym on my lunch hour - first time ever. I'm thinking I really like the emptiness of the gym and how most of the free weights/benches are available. This...

    PLEASE watch "The Cove".

    I know we have a lot of animal lovers here, but this film is more than that. It's for people who have a social and environmental conscience. I am cross-posting at all the fitness boards I frequent. I was so disturbed by this movie that I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't go...

    Is anyone here a Social Worker?

    I'm contemplating getting a masters in social work and was wondering if anyone was already doing this type of work (my BA is in psychology). I know this field is a notoriously challenging one and would like to hear from those who are in this field of work. Thank you!

    Training in someone's home?

    I work for a large chain gym and I've been contemplating breaking out on my own, but am hesitant for various reasons. I was asked by two of my long-term clients if I'd be open to training them privately. It would make more sense to train them in my home as opposed to theirs since I have the...

    No NJ Housewives Reunion thread??

    I'm looking forward to tonight. I didn't think Tuesday's was so "explosive". I just wonder what happened behind the scenes to make Caroline hate Danielle so much. And, "no plastic surgery except for my lips and botox"? Puleeze.

    Anyone else order from advancedworkoutsdvd.com?

    Their website shows they've received Cathe's "glitch-free" DVDs, yet they have not answered my emails asking whether I'd be receiving replacements. Anyone else?

    "Dry" Shampoo - anyone try/use it?

    I know washing your hair every day is bad - I usually just rinse on alternate days, but I wish I could have it feel cleaner. Anyone use/tried "dry" shampoos and what do you think?

    Lamest reason for NOT working out?

    I'm having a REALLY good hair day today and I don't wash my hair every day, so I could probably have another good hair day tomorrow. So, there!

    I have a rotator cuff injury

    My doc recommended physical therapy, but because the trauma is so minor (just some inflammation showed on the x-ray, no tears discernible) he also thinks that it will get better on its own. However, he says if I DO have a small tear, the PT will be able to detect it even though it didn't show...

    ?? for runners

    How often and how long do you run? I just read in a running magazine that one shouldn't run every day to avoid injury. And, are you concerned about injuring yourself? I had an injury when I first started running about 7 years ago (too much too soon), but haven't experienced anything...

    Premixes on new DVDs?

    I'm sorry if this has been discussed before, but I really wasn't going to pre-order so I didn't follow the threads. Now that the deadline is near I'm feeling the non-buyer remorse. Will there be premixes on the new DVDs?

    Anyone taking anything for their joints?

    I was listening to a radio show on health and they were talking about preventing joint degeneration with supplements. I'm a runner and love Cathe's cardio, both of which are very high impact. I'm wondering how many of you are taking supplements and has it helped your joints?
