    Rock Bottoms June 11-17

    Hey Lori, Well, the cold that I managed to hold off last week, really hit Saturday morning (probably cuz I stayed up too late Friday night!). Anyways, I didn't get in my run or leg conditioning on the weekend. This morning I was exhausted when my alarm went off at 4:45 am, but I dragged my...

    Rock Bottoms Week of June 4th

    Well, Lori, fellow Canadian, you must be in the east, though. I'm west. This morning was LowMax and coremax 3. I'm camping this weekend, so I'll be doing the leg conditioning drills from KickMax, since I don't need any equipment, and I'm making my sister drag me out for a 45 minute run...

    Rock Bottoms Week of June 4th

    Hey girls! This afternoon I did upper body (my own program at the gym) and the BBW. I was still sore from Tuesday, so this was extra tough. No Rhythmic step:-(, so I'll be doing LowMax and Coremax 3 in the morning. Cheers, Susan

    Rock Bottoms Week of June 4th

    Hey Lori. I LOVE my HRM. I have the Polar F6. It wasn't cheap, but I use it every day, so I've definitely got my moneys worth. My hubby & kids got it for me for mother's day last year. It's got a lot of great features. I'm still sore from Tuesday upper body & BBW, but I'll be back at...

    Precision Nutrition vs. BFFM

    I'm looking for feedback from anyone who's tried both/either Precision Nutrition or Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle. I have BFFM and have been thinking about purchasing Precision Nutrition. Any thoughts? Susan:)

    Rock Bottoms Week of June 4th

    Hey Lori, That's amazing that you lost all the baby weight in 4 months. It took me 8 years;-) Re my measurements - I'm up a lot since my forced 6 week break, which is so disappointing. I worked so hard to get down and boy does it come back fast. Oh well, we can only look forward...

    Rock Bottoms Week of June 4th

    Hey Lori. Bummer about your ball! Those things aren't cheap, either. Good for you for getting all your workouts in. My butt is a little sore today and I'm feeling it in my quads. Looking forward to upper body and BBW this afternoon. I could feel a cold coming on yesterday afternoon...

    laser hair removal?

    Nancy, I have thick, dark, coarse hair as well and really, as bad as it is to let the hair grow out, waxing makes a HUGE difference in regrowth. I waxed for about 8 months and now when my hair grows back it's much finer and lighter (really!). I did hate having to wait till it was long...

    binge confessions (long)

    Hi Karie, I agree with the others that say don't beat yourself up over it - you can only look forward, you can't change the past. I think we also need to accept that we're not perfect and whatever plan you stick to has to fit your lifestyle and has to make you happy - if it's a constant...

    Rock Bottoms Week of June 4th

    Okay, well maybe I'll do more cardio, too, but will likely keep it to hill walking, elliptical or cycling. If I do high impact everyday, my knees and ankles give me grief. I'm dreading the 45 minute run on the weekend - I really hate running (I like most everything else, but for some reason...

    What WAS I thinking?

    Thinking that I'll exercise when I'm on holidays. Thinking, sure, I can eat clean on the weekends while I'm camping. Thinking I can just have one handful of trail mix, or m&m's. Thinking I can drop 2 lbs per week every week. Thinking that I'm not delusional regarding the above...

    Rock Bottoms Week of June 4th

    Hey Lori, I don't think we need a new thread everyday either. Well, I did IMAX 2 this morning followed by 300 walking lunges outside. It was a beautiful morning - sunny & birds singing, so that helped. My legs definitely felt like jello when I was done. I don't know how you did it with...

    Anyone interested......

    Right on Lori! That's good to hear. I'm really pumped on a hard workout program. I just came off of a forced month and a half break from working out and I hated it. (My doctor made me stop working out for a while as I had a weird EKG - super low heartrate (43 bpm). Anyways, I've been...

    WOW! With 12 lb dbs?? I was planning on doing them unweighted (I was assuming that's what Cathe meant in the instrux.). I think I'll still stick with that for the first time to see how I do - after all, I want to be able to do the BBW the next day.:-) You're a machine!! I'll have to...

    I don't have BM2, but I have been thinking about getting it...maybe I should? It does look like fun. Although, since my home workouts are done in the morning (5 am) and BM2 is over 90 minutes (I'd have to start at 4:30 am - YIKES), maybe I'll do drillmax except the upper body stuff in the...

    Hey Lori, I'll take my measurements and weight, plus do before pics of my lower body on Sunday evening, as I'm starting Monday. Let me know how the 300 walking lunges go today... Cheers, Susan
