Okay, here it is. I'm on a recovery week, so no workouts for me lately, just lots of work. I would so rather workout, but the body is tired.

I decided to put together a thread here for my BFFM challenge since I decided that STS is my weight training for that challenge. Plus all my Cathe friends can't see the BFFM thread since it is a private pay forum. I actually started the challenge on May 24th, so one week is down. The STS...

Okay, here it is. Hope everyone can find it. Janie are you back yet? Hope you took lots of pictures. I'm still on my "off" on the workouts. Just haven't got the motivation quite yet to get back "on." I was going to start this afternoon after my hair appointment, but then DH announced...

Happy New Year Everyone!

Okay, yesterday I was in Reno, so rest day. Today was a massage, so another rest day since I don't want to bungle up a perfectly good massage. Tomorrow will depend on what type of time I end up with.....probably Jillian Michael's no more trouble zones; she's such a bully. But it is a good...

Well, since we were buried on the fourth page and we were still saying it was September, I thought I would start a new month for us!! Okay, today I did Step, Jump and Pump. Actually made it all the way through without too many pauses. I did Step Blast again on Saturday and did a bit better...

Okay, here's the new month for us. Like I said, yesterday was a work in the yard workout for me. Today I think I will be doing a bunch of cooking and such. Want to try a recipe for roasted red-pepper hummus. But I forgot to get red peppers yesterday at the store, so I think I have to go to...

Hi SNM-- Usually I get a confirming e-mail from SNM about my order. I ordered the day the e-mail went out and still don't have a confirming e-mail. Could you please check and see if it went through? My CC hasn't been charged yet either, but I know that doesn't mean anything. E-mail is...

I'm almost at the end of the seige of Atlanta and the birth of Melanie's baby... how 'bout the rest? I know some of us speedy readers are already done! I'm managing a few pages a morning. So far, it is the only time I'm able to get some reading in... No pertinant thoughts here. The only...

Hey Laura! It is getting close to Thanksgiving. Are we still doing the read of GWTW? I'm game. I don't know if there was anyone else out there joining us or even if we were posting it. I still have to go dig up the book from my bookshelf somewhere. :eek:

Hi SNM. Yesterday at home, I noticed that my fonts and colors weren't acting right. The screen would show the encryption? i.e., [font][color] and not change the color or the font. Would it be because I have Safari at home? Would it be better if I used the Firefox instead? I noticed that my...

Hi Cathe! Hope you are not going too crazy during this Holiday season and are taking some time for yourself. I have a substitution question for the 4DS Boot Camp. Currently I'm not allowed to do push-ups or any shoulder exercises which put my arm at 90 degrees or above or put pressure on...

Hi Cathe! Quick question for you about the Suicide Runs in Boot Camp, 4DS; about how far/long is the distance? I haven't been able to gauge my distance. Either I'm really slow or I am running and placing the weights too far apart. I end up with about 2-3 laps less than you and the crew...

Cathe - I have a general overall question. I know that every person responds differently to workouts. I also know that muscle confusion is supposed to be good. However, is there such thing as too much variety? What I mean is, I have tons of videos (I think the only series I'm missing of...

Cathe-- I've only been able to fit Butts and Gutts into my schedule so far, but I wanted to add my thanks for that AWESOME workut!. I thought I was being nice to myself and starting off easy (i.e., no ankle weights, lighter bar bell, etc.) Heck no...I think the no equipment exercises got me...

Hi Cathe- Okay, I had to admit, I'm terrible at the terminators. I need some tips I think. One thing that I have corrected is I finally realized that I was holding my breath a lot of the time. Not good. However, the other problem I have is the "squat thrust part" I don't know if my hip...

Finally back in the saddle again! This month may be a rotation of whatever I feel like picking out the night before (since I usually set up weights, etc, before I go to bed) Sun: Off Mon: Off Tues: Off Wed: Off, just one more day, but did get dressed for workout:o Just happened to...

Hi Cathe, Just did the floor work in GS legs (well, and pyramid) and I was surprised to be all over the place. My calves were just cramping away, I don't think I got much of a workout in the hamstrings. Is there a form tip or is it that with the stabilization, I'm going to have to work up...

I'm going to try and follow the April strength rotation. Already off to rocky start since couldn't get up this morning. So this evening will be the Gym Style shoulders, biceps, etc with IMAX 3 in the morning? I must get up, I must get up.......

Cathe, Just wanted to thank you so much for all the time and information that you give us. When researching for a new bar bell, I came across your information about the Walmart $19.96 U.S. Weights. I appreciate it so much and it made it much easier to determine what to buy. All I wanted...
