SNM - is this what we should be doing? Is there a benefit to going in and editing the workout after we're done?

I've found that there are a lot of different schools of thought on this one. Some coaches suggest that runners don't need legs and shouldn't do lower body weights at all. They think doing lower body weights will up the potential for injury and over-stress the legs. Another coach that I read...

I just did Disc 1 this morning and totally agree!! Ouch!

Thanks guys. I really want to do the workouts in order and I really don't want to start tonight (since I ran this morning!), so I studied my calendar and figured it out... I have a race next weekend that moves my usual saturday run to Sunday. That means I can do: Tu Disc 1 We Cardio...

FINALLY, my videos came!! I was so worried that the snow was going to prevent UPS from coming. Still, I have another question. I initially read that we shouldn't do STS such that we are working out the same body part 2 days in a row. I read that to mean that I could do upper body 2 days in...

Is there anyone else with this problem? I work out in my unfinished basement. The walls are not solid, they are just the insulation (no drywall over them)... and frankly there is just no where down there with a real wall or anything solid/wall-like that I can do wall squats against. Should i...

When doing the 1RM test, can you just assume that certain exercises will be the same weight? For example, if there is a dumbbell bicep curl standing, a dumbbell bicep concentration curl, and an alternating curl? Can we just do one of those and say the rest are the same weight? I'm overwhelmed...

Hi Cathe! I used to do your videos exclusively until 2006 - I signed up for marathon training and ran 4 marathons in 2006 & 2007. I didn't want to mix my marathon training with either Lower Body Weights or Step because of either tiring out my knees or bothering my joints / over training...

When there are 2 workouts to do, is it ok to split them up - one in the morning and one in the evening? Or should they be done all together?

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that she'll post it tonight! :) I usually don't run out of days... if you started december on 12/5, you shouldn't have since there are 4 weeks in the rotation and that should cover december. However, if you started November on 10/31 - you would run out of days...

HEY Tami & Sami!!!!! Great to hear from you!! Sami, thanks so much for sending the photos - I did get them and I never emailed you to say thanks (I'm horrible)! --Kim

Thank you!! I lost 30 pounds, but my measurements are smaller than they were when I was at this size after reaching Weight Watchers goal weight! :)

I just wanted to post my success so hopefully Cathe will see - I'm bubbling with pride. Let's see... I started out just dieting with Weight Watchers and I was successful, but I didn't keep it off after I hit my goal weight (lost 50 then gained 30). I was bored with gym workouts, couldn't...

Hi Cathe/SNM: How long will the presale be going on ? I would really like to purchase the new workouts, but I just spent some $ on the road trip and on a new pair of sunglasses, so I may need to wait a few weeks. --Kim

Sami & DJ - I can't believe it took you that long to get home, wow!! Hopefully you got your rest today. I am so tired today. My running partner called me just after 9 (I had JUST gotten up) and told me that he wanted to run today, Wednesday and Friday this week because we're doing a 5k on...

You too!! I'm checking in over here more today :)

I had a great time! Thanks so much!

Does anyone else want to go pick up the Harry Potter book while we're on the road trip? I can't decide if I should just wait until I get home. I preordered from Waldenbooks, but I'm not sure if I can pick it up from ANY walden books or if I have to get it from the one near me... --Kim

What happens if something happens and I've signed up for the road trip and I can't make it? Is there a cancellation policy?

ME ME ME!! I, too, can't take friday off, but I'll be there in the evening.
