    Denise Austin's Abs Trainer

    I think the total with EXPRESS shipping was close to $30.00. It is GREAT!!!! A little difficult to put together (45 minutes) but worth it. Get it - you won't be disappointed. Elln

    FitDay Software

    I just received my fitday software and I can't tell you what an invaluable tool this is. If you want to try the free Web version, visit www.fitday.com But the paid-for version is so much better that it was worth the $29.00. If you want to know exactly what you are eating (fat content, etc)...

    For P90 & P90X users

    Can someone describe what these items are? (1)push-up bars, (2)pull-up bar or (3)workout tower? Is a pull-up bar one that you put between a doorway and pull yourself up on? What about a push-up bar and a workout tower? Thanks, I am relative new to working out with weights. Elln

    For P90 & P90X users

    I am also interested in the P90X but how does one do these exercises at home when most of them require: push-up bars, pull-up bar or band or workout tower? This is what is stopping me from getting them. http://www.beachbody.com/jump.jsp?itemType=GATEWAY&itemID=63 Elln

    Orbitrek or Treadmill??

    I would have to disagree with burning a similar amount of calories on either piece of equipment because I burn 650 calories in 50 minutes on the Elliptical; whereas I burn 400 calories on the treadmill in the same amount of time. But you really have to "try" before you "buy" or you might end...

    Orbitrek or Treadmill??

    I would definitely suggest that you try out the product BEFORE purchasing it! I recently saw a great elliptical buy in The Sharper Image catalog - when I went over to the store to try it - it was a piece of junk. You are not going to get anything decent UNDER $1500 in the elliptical market. I...

    Denise Austin's Abs Trainer

    I just received my Abs Trainer and I must say it is GREAT!!!! For anyone who hates doing crunches, or if you are like me, and suffer from neck strain when doing crunches, this is a God-sent!!! I ordered it with the express shipping and it took about 2 weeks but well worth the $19.99...

    Old-Fashioned BELTS

    You would be surprised to see this set up and all of the people standing on these machines! My first thought was if all of these people are here - it must be doing something for them. However, after reading the link below - I came to my senses...

    Old-Fashioned BELTS

    I recently read somewhere that the old-fashioned Vibrating Belts/Machines were making a comeback in health clubs. I stopped by a Korean-owned fitness club in NJ yesterday that consited of just vibrating machines. It is a 3-step process: (1) you drink this Oak tree vinegar to detox; (2)...

    Old-fashioned VIBRATOR Belts/Machines

    I recently read somewhere that the old-fashioned Vibrator Belts/Machines were making a comeback in health clubs. I stopped by a Korean-owned fitness club in NJ yesterday that was all vibrator machines. It is a 3-step process: (1) you drink this Oak tree vinegar to detox; (2) stands on this...

    Dick Clark's New Year - Mariah Carey

    I saw Mariah last night on The Ellen DeGeneres show and I couldn't believe how HUGE she got. AND she was wearing a leotard-type top with tight-fitting pants that just accentuated her size. Her face was quite plump as well. With all of her money, why wouldn't she get started with a personal...

    Beachbody.com's "POWER 90-X"

    I know that there has been some discussion about the P-90X workout - but I couldn't find the thread. I am curious to hear if anyone has used this program and, if so, what kind of results did you get, and how does it compare to Cathe's workouts. Look forward to your responses. Elln

    What can I use to sub for Gym Style Legs? (problems!)

    I felt the SAME way about GS: Legs. I bought mine from Collage Video and thankfully I was able to return it! I found PS: Strong Legs and Abs - and it is one of my favorites! I seem to like Cathe's older version videos because she doesn't seem to use any "gimmicks" in the workouts, i.e...

    Elliptical - questions

    The fact that I burn 620 calories in 50 minutes and am dripping wet is enough for me to know that I am getting a Cardio workout.

    Elliptical - questions

    Nancy: I do NOT keep track of my heart rate - not sure I know how to! I seem to be more concerned about the "resistance levels" because the harder the resistance the better your workout. About 6 weeks ago, I thought level 4 was beyond my reach, yet by introducing it into my workout...

    Elliptical - questions

    I do the Elliptical (3x a week @ 50 mins. each time). I use Cross Training #2 and a Resistance of 4. I burn 620 calories each time and clock a distance of 4.75 miles. My advice is to either hit the "quick start" button and make sure the resistance is on level 1 OR do the "Manual" program...
