One other thought, Annette...I like the adjustable dumbbell because I can put a larger weight on it for doing triceps extensions...I don't mean heavier I mean bigger in circumference. That way my hands don't overlap. It always felt awkward to me having them overlapped and I felt like one arm...

Just out of curiousity ladies...and not to be competitive at all... Was wondering what some of you are lifting for various muscle groups... Say: Bench press Bicep curls Triceps OH Curious minds want to know????

Hi Annette I bought the dumbbells locally at a "serious" weightlifting outlet...very good equipment. I imagine you can buy them online also. I think there are pros and cons. You can probably load them as heavy as you want. Primarily that was the reason I bought them because I could use my...

Lorna By increments I mean different weights Lorna...I would always start light. I think the general rule of thumb is if you can do more than 12 it is too light and if you cannot do 8 it is too heavy...but this may not apply to Cathe's videos...I have just started using them. I used to just...

Hi Lorna If you have a small local paper that advertises items for sale Lorna...you can oftentimes find weights very cheaply to get you started. The one we have here has pages of exercise equipment people don't use...sometimes almost brand new. I have the adjustable threaded dumbbells where...

Hi Caroline...I just have to laugh everytime I see your name...Humanhair... It seems like we get stuck with this idea that aerobic is best...and even I fall back into thinking well maybe I should be running more than lifting....but from experience weightlifting is really the way to go. I...

I think 200 is a good short-term goal Crystal...small increments work better for me than looking at say 70 pounds to lose...I am happy with one pound if I keep it off...The cruise will be wonderful...I have never been but am interested in seeing how you like it...maybe it should be a goal for...

RE: enzymes - for digesting Hello again Dorthe...Yes, I would be interested in the brands you are taking when you have a moment. I get very discouraged with the weight loss things sometimes when I am following a healthy eating plan and exercising. It seems since reaching menopause my weight...

RE: Okay, now another question I believe LL Bean still carries them...think I saw their catalog just the other day and since I order everything through the mail noticed they had good running shoes...something I am in the market for as well. I won't tell you how long I have had mine...

RE: Hey Nosey!! Gee Debbie...you wouldn't like to move to upstate New York would you. We have such a dirth of instructors of any kind!...Anyway, I was going to ask the same question of you myself...so I am glad Ruth was the nosey one. I had my own business for three years...designed and...

Hi Dorthe....Your story just reminds me what a complex biological organism we truly are and what works for one person does not always work for the other. I am happy you found a specialist that worked with you...I know that is very challenging in this day and age...even finding a doctor that...

Good morning ladies...congratulations on all of your success and breakthroughs! I feel like I am just starting here since I am not yet totally consistent with everything yet...in the middle of moving and feeling a little out of sync. But I am trying to do something everyday...weights or...

Kathy...I so enjoyed reading about the event and your son. Feel free to share anytime. I was very involved a few years back with a youth group and miss it (them) very much. Kathleen

RE: Push Up Bars Hi Brin I ordered my set through fitness first...they arrived in just a couple of days. I will have to try the body bars sometimes...I guess I am lazy but get tired of changing weights. I am in the process of moving into a house in town...down from my mountaintop in the...
