    Garance, I am so sorry to hear about your friend's nephew. How incredibly sad. I will keep the family in my prayers. Deb, I remember the albums and cassette tapes from Joanie!! :D:D In fact, I had quite a few of them!! I used to just love her to pieces. That was the last workout of hers I...

    Pentagenarians ++ It's the Weekend!

    Today was Carol's Circuit, then an OLD step workout by Joanie Greggains. Alas ... the tape is dead though. I gave it a proper burial. :( I loved that silly workout ... I've had it since Nicole was about two. Carol :)

    STS CLIP TONIGHT!!!

    I can only do six on my toes. It's true!! :o But two weeks ago I could only do 4. I'm WORKING at it, and I'm going to 51 in October. I've never been able to do them (old Firmie here too!!), and I talked myself into believing I never would be able to. HOGWASH. There's absolutely no physical...

    Pentagenarians+ TGIF!

    Good morning!! Today was Jari's Slim & Lean. Man I hate that workout. I really do. I'd forgotten how much I hate it. It's annoying. I barely finished it. That leaves only TWO out of her five that I like to do. This makes my wait for STS all that much more urgent!!!! :D A burpee is like a squat...

    Pentagenarians + It's Thursday!

    Deb, the running is only for 30 seconds, and I do it on my rebounder. The plyos and jacks are also only for 30 seconds, but I do those on the floor. This little bit of impact doesn't seem to bother me. I hate squat thrusts almost as much as burpees!!! :p Actually, I think burpees might be a good...

    Creatine, anyone???

    Thanks for all your replies so far! I really appreciate it. :) The price has come down considerably since it's gone "mainstream". This http://www.gnc.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3023915&cp=2108320.2102405&parentPage=family seems to be the going price everywhere I looked, and it works out...

    medical terminology course advice

    How about making flashcards, like kids do for math facts? That way you could drill yourself on them. The only way to get them all straight is to memorize them. It's basically like learning a foreign language - Latin, in this case. ;) Best of luck to you!! Carol :)

    Pentagenarians + It's Hump DAy!

    Garance, I use a stop watch to track the time. The entire thing takes me 22 minutes. I have tended to avoid HIIT like the plague, and I know how important it is to my training, so I finally decided to stop acting like a big baby and just DO IT!! :D I chose the things I really need to work on...

    Creatine, anyone???

    Is anyone taking it to supplement their workouts? Tell me about your likes, dislikes, or any side effects you've had. I've read all the research, and there is plenty of it to read. :cool: What I'd really rather hear about are your personal experience with it. Thanks!! Carol :)
