Hi everyone, long time no post? I haven't had any time to read any posts for our group except yesterday's so I have no idea what's happening. Hope everyone is doing well! Vegas was absolutely wonderful but I was so wiped out last week and could barely function- too little sleep, too much...

Good Morning everyone~ Today is HIIT and I'm going to start HST (weights MWF starting light and gradually getting heavy)- although I hear you CinDee, I just would rather take a week off and not think about working out for a long, long time. As soon as I said I wouldn't eat terribly...

Good morning everyone~ I forgot how much work gardening is between digging and hauling bags of mulch around. Needless to say, I got my upper body work in for the day. It's still not finished so I'm going out this a.m. to try to get more done before it rains. This afternoon I'll do HIIT and...

Good afternoon everyone~ I'm just checking in really fast to start the thread... haven't worked out yet but hope to get to it soon. Sabine, I think my workouts are as hard as they were before but the HIIT is so much faster and I think its actually easier on my knees because its a shorter...

Good morning everyone~ My sitter is here so I'm about to run out and get some coffee and a pedicure (my splurge!) but thought I'd check in first. I ended up doing another HIIT yesterday to see if my heart monitor worked. I obviously need to set it to my own heart rate instead of what it...

Good morning everyone~ Yesterday was hectic and the weather was beautiful so we tried to stay outside as much as we could. Tues I ended up doing HIIT to Cathe's Imax 1 using the jumping segment repeated 10xs twice - I had time during long naps and felt really good. Then I threw in ME...

Can anyone recommend a good tape for body measurements and where you can find it? I know we've covered this subject before but I can't find it. Greatly appreciated! Brenda

Good Morning everyone~ Yesterday was busy so I didn't get to see how everyone was doing- the weather is finally getting warmer so the kids can all go outside. Spring break won't be a total wash this year. Wed I ended up doing the first half of IMAX1 for heartrate and moved onto S&H legs...

Cathe, how about a high-intensity interval training workout? It would be very difficult (i.e. the harder intervals from the Imaxes), recovery, moving on to the next. Shorter but serious. I'm trying to turn up the notch on my workouts and HIIT is supposed to be great for fat burning...

Has anyone out there followed this method before? I've been reading more about it and was wondering what results anyone has had. According to the dialogue on their website its fantastic but I don't see many women posting. I know I don't have enough testosterone to get bulky so I'm not...

Good morning- hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. I for one had a very pleasant weekend but was a total bust with diet and working out. Except for some ab work I didn't do anything I felt like I was wearing heels all weekend (actually, I was). I finally sat down last night and had to rub...

Good afternoon everyone- I'm assuming there aren't alot of us around this weekend since noone has posted yet. We just got back from and egg roll which was really nice but I'm wiped out now. We're going out tonight so I'm wondering if I should just take a nap... the decadence! I just...

First, to any/all trainers out there, thank you in advance for your help. I figured this would be a good forum to start my research since I know many of you are knowledgable, not to mention, helpful. I've been considering becoming a personal trainer for years now but when I would get serious...

Good morning everyone~ I just have a moment before starting to workout and am having that moment of "did I really say I was going to do Imax2 today?" I'll do it but it's going to take me a second to get my mind wrapped around the idea. I had chocolate AGAIN last night and I think it...

For those of you who play, I'd love some advice on raquets/equipment/shoes for the novice. I'm going to start taking lessons soon and have the desire to become a really good player. I'm looking at this as an investment so I'd like a good raquet that would help me be a better player (they've...

Good morning everyone- this is the third time I'm posting and my server keeps giving out as soon as I send it... if it happens again I'm throwing my computer out the window. Yesterday was S&H Legs/Shoulders and step from MIC. Today looks like PowerHour heavy and StepBlast, then a rest day...

Good morning everyone~ OK, its the first of a new month - what should the new name be? I'm thinking "Bikini Countdown" since CinDee and I literally are crossing the days off the calendar. Any suggestions? (I liked the "Just do it!" idea- I usually have to tell myself that when I can't get...

Good morning everyone- The baby's schedule has changed and she now likes to get up at 5:45 and stay awake until everyone else in the house wakes up so I made some coffee, looked through the paper and figured I'd check in while its quiet. I only had time for BootCamp yesterday (glad you've...

Good Morning ladies~ I only have a quick second to check in- its a beautiful day here and I'm taking the kids to the park before the baby naps. I found my rotation doesn't leave a lot of room for time off which was a problem since Wed my chest/back were still a little sore and I had...

Crystal- I saw you had posted the M&F Hers 8 week rotation and was wondering if you give me more details on how you incorporated the Cathe workouts in the mix. It seemed a little overwhelming when I was trying to figure it out but looks like a great rotation once I get the swing of what I need...
