    Hi Everyone! Shelley---I workout with Abby now and she likes to listen to music so the TV is occupied. She blares the music!! LOL I have done a few workouts with my iPad but I feel as though I'm ignoring her so I stick with the treadmill. I have every weight workout written out so it's not...

    Lisa---I had not seen this article but have read three other articles on the same subject.They must be the latest test results released.

    Happy Easter everyone! Shelley---I am hoping that you are feeling better by today! If it's your gall bladder that's causing the pain, that can be extremely painful! Do you also experience your abdomen swelling? Are the meds working? Prosecco is a dry, white sparkling Italian wine. Its...

    Lisa---I'm not a scale person either....not with weight lifting! Abby has been doing homeschool PE and is seeing dramatic results but loves to use the scale. She loves running, elliptical and spinning but not weights. I like my Prosecco and wine on the weekends, too! Tried a Hurricane last...

    Shelley---I think Cathe would respond to you if you asked her your questions. Doesn't body anatomy have something to do with a person's ability to do on the toes push-ups, burpees and I would imagine even jumping onto a step. I thought I had read something about people with a longer torso...

    Hi everyone! K-----my thoughts are with your friend........how is she doing with her chemo? Please be careful with starting to run again. Hoping the orthotic works well for you. My wrist has ok days and bad days......bicep work and heavy back work always make for a bad day. I guess I really...

    Lisa----Abby is a freshman this year. I panic when I think that she only has 3 more years of high school. :( Shelley---how is Gerry doing? My sister Laurie is having more issues with her back. She is afraid surgery may be in her future, too. K-----Hi!!!! Kathy---Hi!!! Yesterday was 40...

    Checking in with 45 min weighted vest/incline TM + Legs +weighted abs I've been doing my leg work on a weight machine and love it! It's so much easier to do squats without balancing a heavy bar on my shoulders. Leg extensions and curls, leg raises seem so much more effective on the machine...

    Lisa---I doubt I'll order the new workouts. I'm hoping they'll be available OnDemand because they are Cathe's workouts unlike the previous ones. The beach sounds wonderful!!! How often can you say you were at the beach in early March in NJ?? Today was 45 min walk/run on the TM Bi:Hammer...
