    Rest Week: SO HARD to do...need advice !

    Fitmommy; What you wrote is EXACTLY the way that I am. In a way, it's something to be proud of: The fact that we are so determined and REALLY need to be' on our death beds' for lack of better words to skip a work out. It just BUGS me to take a few days off, let alone a week. It's going to be...

    Rest Week: SO HARD to do...need advice !

    I know that I have posted this before, and knowing that I have the common sense that it takes to know when to take a rest week and when not to: I STILL have the worst time with it. Why is that ??? Believe this or not: I have been working out since the year 2000. I have tracked all my work...

    Top Reasons Why I love Cathe's Workouts!

    All the reasons above apply to me as well, but what's also cool is that you can so so many things with one work out. ( Ie: Pre-mixes , and Mix & Match options ) I have never seen, or done any work out video that has had those options. Not to mention all the many differant DVD's that Cathe has...

    Been drinking a LOT more water...BUT...

    Good point !! I actually do tend to reach for it more often for the simple fact that it keeps me busy, AND keeps my hands out of the candy dish. I actually laughed at your first comment " Watch Your Pee" but it's true. I think I may actually be getting used to it now cause I swear I am not...

    Been drinking a LOT more water...BUT...

    I was hoping that sooner or later the bathroom trips would die down a little, and they have. Like I said, just one of those things that I really did not focus on before and thought, since doing Insanity & Cathe rotations it would be good to get in more water. I have heard of these...

    Been drinking a LOT more water...BUT...

    Katerchen ,,funny you mention that because one of my co-workers said that same thing ! This is what confuses me on what Tosca Reno says in the Eat Clean Diet. I can't remember the total liters that she drinks,,all I know is that what she recommends is a CRAZY amount. There is NO WAY I would be...

    Been drinking a LOT more water...BUT...

    Hi Jenn, Thanks for the imput. For the past few years I've really been focusing on my work outs and eating right, but always had trouble with making sure I was getting enough water. I would normally just wait until I got thirsty, which I have read is not good. SO, I've been gradually [...

    Been drinking a LOT more water...BUT...

    May seem silly, but , I had to post: I have literally been running to the bathroom every 20 minutes every day for the past four days! . The building that I work in only has one bathroom and of coarse it's downstairs, so, every 20 minutes I'm flying down an entire flight of stairs. Good...

    Insanity recovery week (Core cardio and balance)

    Hi Lulu,, In my opinion it would be best to follow the routine as it's scheduled out for you in order to get the results it says you'll get. Doing more on top of 'Cardio Core and Balance' would in my opinion be considered over kill. You pounded hard through the first 4 weeks so 'Cardio Core...

    P90X vs Insanity vs Kettleworx

    Actually, the entire first month's worth of DVD's in Insanity are all under 45 minutes. There are even a few in the 'Month 2' DVD's that are 50 minutes and under ( Max Cardio Conditioning ) If I am short on time, I always do one of the DVDs in Month 1, because I am always done from start to...

    P90X vs Insanity vs Kettleworx

    Also like Malibu Girl, I am going on my second rotation of Insanity. Absolutely love it. Results were outstanding! I leaned out a lot, and got completely rid of my 'thigh bulk' after 6 weeks. I am currently just rotating the Month 2 DVD's of Insanity with some 'Cathe' in there as well.( Cathe...

    Bulky legs :(

    Hi NayNay, I have , through trial and error had a similar case and wanted to quickly share. I noticed that when doing some of the heavier 'weighted' moves IE: barbell squats, lunges etc, ( think Step, Jump ,Pump, BodyMax, Bootcamp, etc.) PLUS doing the step routines that I was doing, my legs...

    Insanity Asylum - end of Feb!

    Just wanted to chime in quick because a couple weeks ago I did the entire Insanity 60 day system and really really loved it. I was unsure at first as well, but I think you'll find that it's really not as tough as some make it out to be. Reason being, if there is a move you can't do, or find your...

    Killer recipe - "Fry Salad"

    I found this on YouTube ( don't ask how ) and tried it ! SOOO GOOOD. I've been eating this for supper just about every night because I lilterally crave it. It's semi filled with good for you foods. I state 'semi' becuase it calls for frozen sweet potato fries. If your diet does not leave room...
