Abbreviations

[erinw]

Hi there,

Is there a summary or glossary of what all the abbreviations everyone is using somwhere on this forum? I am relatively new to Cathe and don't understand what all this lingo means. I think it's mainly abbreviations for the workout titles. Thanks for the help!

Hi and welcome to the wonderful world of Cathe!! I thought I would jump in and help you out!

I did a search for you and found a link where someone answered this question over the in Video/DVD section not too long ago. HTH

BTW, the search (advanced) feature is extremely helpful in answering many questions I've found!

DOMS-"Do Over Muscle Screams"
IMO-"Intermittent Muscle Orgasms"
DH-"Dumb Husband"
BMR-"Bent Muscle Recovery"
RS-"Really Scared"

DOMS- delayed onset muscle soreness
IMO- in my opinion (IMHO can be in my humble/honest opinion)
DH- d stands for whatever emotion of the hour- dear, dumb, darling, etc and H is husband; S is son, D is daughter, etc
OT is off topic
HRM is heart rate monitor
I can't tell the rest of these because I don't know the context...

just ask, someone will explain!!

BMR-Is probably Basal Metabolic Rate (How many calories you'd burn in day just lying there).
RS-Is probably Rhythmic Step
OA-? No clue, what was the context?
I really like your answer for it though, Ohhhhh my Aching...
