Hi Lori, I've noticed that as well. For example, I teach a 50 minute cycling class where we are supposed to burn on average between 500-700 calories (it's tough!) and according to my HRM I burned 350! I am 5'5 and 126, so I am at a good weight, but it is frustrating. I just try to focus on...

I regularly get brows and lip done, but all last summer I regularly got the nether regions waxed. It definitely gets less painful as you have it done more. The first time you may have the tears going, but it does get easier. The lady who does my waxing always recommeded to take ibuprofin 1/2...

Hi Jessica I agree with Jess. My husband and I went to Gatlinburg a couple of years ago with a 3 and 1 year old. We strapped them on our backs and hiked away. The kids loved it and they even took their naps in the backpacks! HTH. Eren

Group Groove--I can teach step until the cows come home, but I >just can't move like you need to in groove! LOL Completely agree! For some reason I can do all the "fun" moves in Step, but not like they do in Groove! Thanks for the encouragment regarding Ride. It is getting a little...

Laurie- I think they are very similar although I only trained and taught 1 BodyStep release the rest were Group Step, but love it! You're right, it is very time consuming, especially having 3 programs. I'm sure many people miss you now that you are not teaching! Linda-Wow, I cannot imagine...

That is great news, Heidisue! Laurie- I found it interesting you taught LMI classes in the past. I teach Body Training Systems (Group Step, Group Power, Group Ride) which used to be a division of LMI. I was trained for BodyStep, but then the split happened between the two companies and my...

Katie, I am with you, girl! I just started posting more recently, but have been a lurker for several years! It's nerve wracking, but gets easier and easier. I appreciate your guys' input. I'm starting my list now!

Hi Jess, Man, I have lived here since '96, that makes me feel old (although I am a little older than you and JenL13--33)! I guess I could say I'm a townie now. How about you? Are you originally from here? In one of your pics I noticed you were at Chevy's and I bet it was the one in...

Ha! Will do. Thanks so much.

HI Kathryn, I'm a fellow Minnesotan living in IL as well! Big change! I have a degree in Speech Pathology (from ISU) and I'm aware that EIU has a reputable Speech Pathology program. Very nice campus! Eren

Hi Cathe, I was doing BC cardio only premix tonight and as I'm gasping for air in between the cardio segments my 4 1/2 year old son looks at the screen, looks over at me and says, "Mommy, Cathe NEVER gets tired!" I agree :) Thought you'd get a kick out of that! Eren

Thanks Cathy. I read some reviews on the IIIs on one of the websites. A lot of the reviews said they liked the VIIs much better. That was one of the reasons I was thinking of passing on them, but now I may give them a try. I did just purchase the VIIs for my first half marathon in May, so at...

Thanks, Cathe! Maybe I'll try those VIIIs next! Enjoy your snow day :) Eren

Hi Cathe, Awhile ago you expressed that you really liked your Asics Gel Nimbus VIIs for running. I purchased a pair and LOVE them! Unfortunately I cannot find my size anymore online. Do you have any new favs that you could recommend? Thank you! Eren

HI Gals! I'm in Bloomington and we're snowed in for the second time today. I haven't been able to teach my classes at the gym for 2 days and it's only right up the road from me. Stay warm! Eren

Ladies, Thanks for your input. That all makes a lot of sense. I do have low BP as well as very low resting HR. And Candi is right, I think I've been so careful about getting proteins/fiber in my diet, I've been ignoring my good carbs. I'm going to increase my carbs and see what happens...

Hi Everyone, I'm a lurker, but thought I'd "come out" for some much needed advice from all you knowledgable women! I have been eating pretty clean for the last month or so and ever since have been running low on energy. One main symptom is that I get light-headed a lot easier than before...

HI Dayna, I own a company that helps build websites for small to medium businesses at affordable prices. I can show you what a sample of your business website could look like online. HTH, Eren

Hi Nancy, That's funny, I decided to dust the spider webs off my PS this week, too. The negative curls for biceps are what get me, I'm really wanting to bulk up my biceps and am hoping this will do it. Eren

RE: St. Louis Trippers!! Which weekend(s) CAN you hang... Hi All I usually don't post, but I was so excited to see Cathe-ites from Il. I would love to join you guys, but Oct. 1 doesn't work for me. I can do any other Saturday in Oct., but if that's the date that works for everyone maybe I...
