    Fitness pants...

    I love the pants from Otomix and they are so high quality and last forever! I get the roll down boot cut ones...I bought about 5 pair literally like 6-7 years ago and am still wearing them. www.otomix.com Kelly Olexa www.kellyolexa.blogspot.com

    Bulky vs. Lean question

    I thought I'd pop in and share my two cents. I have the same dilemma and have had it for a while - my upper body leaned out and started showing great definition and then its like the success was working its way DOWN my body. I had started working out with a trainer this year and was disturbed...

    heart rate monitors

    I use a Polar HRM - RS200 and it is fantastic. I had the MAP test first and those results were fed into the HRM at the gym. I wouldn't workout without it!! ;-) Kelly www.kellyolexa.blogspot.com

    RED CARPET READY

    Tneah I also "warmed up" with cardio for a good 10 minutes instead of just a few....I think the program by itself is kick butt, but you obviously can also really tweak it up which is cool. Those ValSlides - if you watch a video you'll think, oh that's no big deal, I could do a lunge without...

    RED CARPET READY

    Tneah, Whoa. I just did my 2nd day of the circuit and was just literally dripping with sweat and gasping for air, it was awesome!! I also finished off with a shoulder circuit, but I'm telling you, this workout system is killer, I love the difference, and I'm pretty darn sure this will be the...

    RED CARPET READY

    Tneah I re-read through the diet portion of RCR last night and she says that vegetables are virtually unlimited. I do like the part of this "diet" where in between meals you could have smaller snacks like 2 hard boiled eggs or one and a piece of fruit, instead of feeling like you are force...

    RED CARPET READY

    Tneah - ha ha that is a picture of my goal back and I have to say I'm getting darn close. My goal this summer is to be posting my own progress photos. You would laugh if you saw me in my bathroom trying to take my own photos; they aren't really eye catching!! LOL >Excellent! Now I get it. And...

    RED CARPET READY

    I think she means she did each of the 3 circuits 3 times through; so circuit 1, do 3x no stop, then no stop right into circuit 2, 3 times nonstop and then circuit 3 non stop. I did this too and will likely ramp up to doing it 4x each, so 12 total circuits and then upper body weight work at the...

    RED CARPET READY

    I have to jump in here and say that RCR is really worth looking in to, and DOING it. Just my opinion. I first ordered the RCR stuff, downloaded the eBook and leafed through it. I saw nothing new and was like, wow this is lame. I know how to do all this stuff, and I go WAY HEAVIER than 8 or 10lb...

    Jari Love--yikes

    Tneah - I had ordered RCR a while back, downloaded the eBook and leafed through it; I thought "wow this is easy, totally lame and nothing new here." I returned it. Boy was I wrong. I read a review of the results on Skwigg's blog and decided that this could be the thing that I'm looking for...
