    Organic Milk or Organic Fruits and Veggies? Help me pick.

    It's too bad the non-evil stuff is so much more expensive. Every time I go to Whole Foods I am astounded at the final tally at the cash register. Last time I spent nearly 100 dollars and had just a hand basket of stuff (of course, the sunscreen, wine, and L-Carnitine for the husband had a lot to...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Sat June 25

    Diane Sue, I must have missed the initial post about your granddaughter. Sorry to hear about the health problems...will keep her in prayer. No workout Saturday, although I did go to a crawfish boil with my husband. One of his work friends is from Lousiana, so he put it on for his Cali...

    double leg bar work of LBB, up on toes

    I've been going to a bar class and when we do drills similar to Cathe's, she always tells us to go all the way up on our toes, as high as possible. I mean, the balls of your feet are still going to be on the ground, but I think it's meant to get more calf.

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Fri. June 24

    Today was a yoga class, as was yesterday, but yesterday's contained lots of extra push ups, so I'm sore in my shoulders. My obliques are rather sore, too.

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Wed June 22

    I have occasionally run a distance of appx 2-3 miles with a friend. It's not something I would ever choose to do on my own but it's something I'm willing to do to be companionable. The thing is, running is freaking boring. A little ipod shuffle (which I don't have any more) does help, though...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Sat June 18

    Just finished my Sunday workout. It was kind of blah. I decided to be adventurous and work on learning new cardio, so I put in Amy's advanced step challenge I, which I sort of learned before, but it's been a while. Tonight, however, I couldn't even begin to get it, so I got frustrated and...

    I miss my Dad!

    My dad passed away of colon cancer when I was 11. My husband and I ended up having to leave church today because I couldn't stop crying. You know how it is on Father's Day, they have to say something about dads, but they just went on at such great length...and on and on. I felt like a wimp cuz...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Sat June 18

    I've never done insanity, myself. I think my little sis might have it. Today was High Reps. Then we took DH's father and mother figure out to din for father's day...DH got me some cheesecake to take home, which I ate about half of. Makes me feel like I should do some cardio. I didn't add in...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Fri. June 17

    Hello! Today's workout was yoga class. This guy's class I don't usually go to, and when I do, I honestly try to make sure it's a shorter yoga class (today's was an hour and ten minutes). The full hour and twenty five minutes just destroys me. His level 2 class, I cannot help but think, is more...

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Tues June 14

    Debbie, 95% better sounds pretty good...wasn't that just a couple days ago you had all that pain? When I tweaked my back I was moving like a 90 year old for two days, and then I waited another couple days to workout to be sure. It was pretty crappy. That's cute your granddaughter worked out...

    ouch, Debbie...that sounds painful. I hope you are noticing some improvement. I am grading now...it is deathly boring. No workout today, but yesterday was yoga class.

    Hard Core Fitness Maniacs for Fri. June 10

    Diane, sorry about that car thing... definitely not a high point to the day, I'm sure. =( I've been fairly busy today/this week and was thinking of skipping my workout tonight but I think I'd rather have Sunday as my rest day, so I'm about to go do High Reps. Other than that, my workouts...

    Oldest Female Bodybuilder

    I wonder if the idea that exercise wears the body down and causes early decline would be the result of an older generation that associates activity not with keeping fit but with manual labor. People with this idea might have seen a lot of their male relatives slogging away on farms and...I don't...

    Two Pit Bulls Just Killed My Cat

    This heartbreaking. I'm so sorry this happened to you and your sweet kitty. I hope, hope, so much hope the owners of those dogs are identified. Dogs certainly can be controlled if people are responsible. My sister has a pit bull and she's such a sweet baby. She has been to obedience school...

    Hardcore Fitness Maniac Hotties for 6/4

    Today is a rest day for me, although I did a little light yoga on my own earlier, so I guess an active rest day. Yesterday I went to yoga class.

    Today was Tracey's "Glute Camp", then I added some calves on my own and then the abs from High Reps.

    The meaning of your user name

    Mine is the name of my princess kitty, Hermia, who, at the moment, is letting me know it's past time for her dinner. =)

    What's going on? Advice?

    Is seven hours of sleep enough? It wouldn't be for me, personally. Try some yoga! It's good stuff.
