Hi Sherry , I'm doing Xtrain , and have been using them as an add - on much the same way that Nathalie does , but I also use them, as well as the bonus burn sets, to hit my muscle groups a second time per week .

Renee , I'm so sorry . I'll be keeping you in my thoughts and sending love your way .

Hi Amy - I've have the Influence , and the Intent XT . I find both are really comfortable and lightweight , but the Intents have more arch support and padding - great for higher impact as well as weight training . Just my 2 cents . Nanbo - I've seen them wearing the Influence quite a bit in the...

YAY ! I'm so excited about these !

Just wanted to add - I'll be doing all of these at home , so I'll have to modify a bit due to lack of equipment . That already happened with the pull ups . I skipped them last week , but I'll try hanging tubing from the door next time . It will be great to share all of our modifications and...

Hi everyone ! Wow - this is so great . I just read all of these posts and the enthusiasm jumps right off the page ! ASand - YES , lets do the , " Bringing up the Rear " , check in ! It's a great idea . Glute bridge vs. Hip thrust . I feel like the bridges are easier to get good form on . I...

Hi guys ! Yay ! We've been enabled . I did the first workout this afternoon and it was great - I liked the demos and it moved smoothy for being the first time . DOMS are in rear already ! I'm excited we're doing it - and with the new Cathe's it is the best of both worlds !

I agree , when you have so many great dvd's to choose from you can take Cathe's workouts as far as one is willing to go, fitness wise . That's also why Cathe , [and others] are able to put together such terrific rotations - every combination of dvd's in those always sounds great to me ! I can't...

ASand - Julie - I took the plunge ! I've barely set anything up yet , but just this morning decided that I could use the extra help . My Cathe workouts are the ultimate for me - I just think of using these to supplement them . Plus , I am a lemming .... But I am excited !

Repo - The NAAA disease - I hear that ! Have you read the book , " Strong Curves ", by Brett Contreras ? We were talking about it on a different thread . He's known as the , " Glute Guy ", because he's got a lot of insight into training this stubborn area . It's worth checking out . Nathalie -...

Hi Jen , So glad at least the SIS is behind you . I know the procedure itself wasn't the big deal , it's about the diagnosis . If you end up needing the hysterectomy , you'll handle it . And anytime you have a question about it , we are all here to help . All my best - Kate

I'm really interested in checking this out . I have the Strong Curves book and got a lot from it . I finally understand why I generally feel glute work in my legs instead of my butt - because my butt muscles are weak ! He's got a section where you test different floor exercises to see if you...

Yep , I'm kinda with Tracy - the little that I have is probably due to Cathe and those 100 rep hip thrusts that I have been sentenced to doing for life ...

Hi guys , My sympathies to both of you - it's a lot to go through ! I know what you mean Jackie , I felt so much better after my Hysterectomy too . Jennifer , Good luck this week [ if I have that right . ] The procedure won't be bad . You'll do great ! Kate

It really does help . I've been reading a bit about this approach vs. once a week and it's really something I'd like to pursue . Thanks !

Hi Tracy , I've never done HC , so I hope you don't mind the change of subject , but I'm so interested in how you liked your STS doubles ! I ask because I'm playing around with some ideas for rotations for when I finish Xtrain and I want the structure to be based on strength training each muscle...

I'm so sorry . My 2 labs are my best friends . Sending love and support your way .

Hi Jennifer , Excellent ! I hope you have the best time ! Kate

Well , I can totally understand what you're feeling - I don't think I ever faced the prospect of surgery without the worry and anxiety , no matter how many times I was told it was , " Routine " or whatever the phrase was . Of course , not being a doctor , it's not possible to say for sure , but...

Hi Jennifer , I had to Google it to remind myself , but I had Endometriosis and had this procedure . I must have been out or given a twilight because I don't remember going through it - but I also had so many surgeries that sometimes they get mixed up in my memories . If you don't mind , I'd...
