    boosting and treadmill use

    Thanks for your note. Before my treadmill I only ran outside. I live in WV, so all of my runs were up hills, down hills, up hills, down hills, you get the picture. I have been enjoying running on the treadmill b/c I can run on flat terrain. Maybe I will incorporate some incline training on the...

    boosting and treadmill use

    Thanks for your response. Yes, I do strength training both upper and lower body. I have a weider version of the bowflex that I can do leg presses etc with for a heavier day and I do free weights for lighter days. I have been using weights for years. I am now 35, 3 kids and it seems things are...

    Hi Cathe. Do have a a recommendation for lifting the rear without adding bulk? I am currently addicted to my treadmill for cardio so I am looking primarily for suggestions for weights, specific exercises and the like to concentrate and focus upon. I am happy with my weight and overall physique...

    Cathe, I Work and I am in Grad school! Help!

    Law school-thanks for getting me through it!

    Oh wow, my worst nightmare! I have heard it is mostly memorization, but it still freaks me out a bit. Cathe helps me de-stress though. Yes, if only someone could tell me all of the caselaw and code sections that apply each day in practice my life would be a breeze!

    Law school-thanks for getting me through it!

    I think that one word really describes the experience "insane." Although I am graduating from a top 20 school and everyone there is very, very intense and competitive, academics weren't my biggest concern. I think keeping my distance, literally and figuratively, probably helped get me through...

    Law school-thanks for getting me through it!

    I can get freaked out about the bar if I let myself but I figure I got through all three years and paid huge tuition so I should be fine. But then again with the kids I will really have to try and super focus. Exercise keeps my mind clear.

    Law school-thanks for getting me through it!

    Cathe, I took my last law school exam yesterday. I am the mother of 3 boys and commuted to school 3 hours per day. However, with exercise videos, 95% your exercise videos, running and lifting I got through without any loss of fitness. (and no weight gain) I found that although I had very little...

It is good to hear that you have progressed so well. I have read that it feels weird to lift after surgery. I would like to keep the definition in my...

    Getting surgery

    Sara: I have been considering a ba for nearly a year, and actually canceled the day prior to surgery. One of my greatest concerns is loss of fitness. I love how strong my body is and don't want to lose that. Please keep us updated on your progress.

    Body Blast Dvd

    Although SNM's hard work is appreciated by everyone, the time value of money must be observed. SNM has already charged credit cards so cash has been in SNM's hands for around 6 months. SNM has essentially an interest free loan on those pre-sale dollars. Considering the time value of money and...

    muscle "memory" or just "getting it"

    I think our muscles and minds are being stimulated to grow, or at least not atrophy. Both our minds and our bodies are becoming more agile, so hey, we are aging in reverse!

    muscle "memory" or just "getting it"

    not getting it is good too! The thing that keeps me coming back to a video is not "getting it." If I don't have the moves down then my brain has to concentrate and I am not thinking of the 1 million plus things I need to do or about whatever happened at work, school etc..Plus Cathe's...
