    !NEED HELP!

    If you haven't changed up your routine in a while, now is a good time to do so. Rotate the same workouts for 4 weeks in a row and then change to a new set of 4. You might also want to focus more on weight lifting and less on cardio and see how that works for you. Weight lifting can speed up...

    Cookie Monster Laugh

    I just wanted to say I love this little laugh you give in HIS 4 day split for the reverse curls. The workouts always look so professional, so smooth and effertlessly on your part and the girls too, as if everything should move so gracefully. But when you throw in little laughs like that or...

    Yikes! This looks like it might be getting expensive!

    I was starting to think the same thing too, that this was starting to look like the expensive side of training. First we purchase the workouts, and that alone has a nice price tag, although broken down it makes each dvd very affordable, the price tag is on the high side. Then we need extra...

    Creatine & STS

    I am sorry to hear they are not much help at GNC, the ones by me are so wonderful, but I guess it is all in who they hire. I have used creatine going on 2 years now and won't go through a summer without it. I first found out about it and read enough about it to jump on the wagon when I...

    Creatine & STS

    I know you can have side effects of weight gain and water retention from taking creatine, but they do have formulas out there that help against this. Such as specially formulated creatine for women. I use creatine only during the summer because it does help with the definition of muscle at...

    Creatine & STS

    If you are thinking about using Creatine, ask your medical personal which might be the best for you, or go to a GNC store (vitamin store) and ask someone who knows what they are talking about. There are different forumla's of creatine and women need different than men. The link I put on my...

    Creatine & STS

    Not Cathe, but I use creatine. I start in March and go through to September, 8 weeks on 4 weeks off. You don't want to take to much creatine because your body makes it on its own plus you get it from certain meats and if you suplement it to much your body will stop making it on its own. I am...

    Cathe I quit smoking

    Cathe was a BIG part of my decision to quite myself!! I could make it through her workouts but I felt so dumb and stupid for stepping outside right when I was done and lighting one up. Kind of undoes what you just did. Plus I though OMG what would Cathe say or what would her facial features be...

I am sure there will be new moves in which I will have to determine the 1RM, but for know I at least have an idea with the exercise moves we...

    Paper plates on carpet?

    http://www.glidingdiscs.com/?gclid=CKWZ4JLuxJECFUaPOAodDAv4mg cheap gliders plus a dvd to go with it, bonus. It is only $9.99 for a VHS tape but I think $12.99 for DVD. I know paper plates might be cheaper, but these are probably a little thicker and more durable than paper plates. I saw...
