    I would look at hamstring stretches, piriformis stretch. Some specific low back stuff would be knee hugs. One at a time and then both and then you can rock back and forth and massage the back. Try it’s a start

    So, this didn’t work for me. I saved it and I get back to the video, but I don’t see arrows that will take me back to the page I was on… I still end up on the cover page of the ebook or I use the search function in the site.

    Maybe it’s just the short term inconvenience as I get familiar with the exercises…

    Saving it to files on your phone and go from there. The arrow is at the very top after you view the actual video. Then it takes you right back to the same page. The iPhone would say you are leaving files to get this link. That’s part of it too. Give it another shot

    I have only received one follow up email (the upper body live workout).

    You can email [email protected] and they can make sure you are set up correctly.

    I know we are supposed to get an email when the corrections are done to the Ebook. I keep looking at the ebook and some corrections still aren’t made, like Women’s meal plan 3 Post workout option 1 has one LP but calls for 2 scoops of protein powder and the recipe for Bean and Rice burrito is still called Beans and rice although there’s no rice. Just want to wait to print the whole book until the changes are made. Thank you!

    I was told that the corrections won’t be emailed out. I asked about the other corrections as well.

    Hello! For the VIP live workout videos, will an email be sent out to members so we can watch the taped videos?

    There is usually an email with a replay.

    I was diagnosed with the flu on Saturday March 30th. Today is 8 days post diagnosis and I believe I am feeling at about 90%. I rested A LOT this past week! I did not exercise at all except for the occasional walk with the dogs. It’s Monday and I think I’m ready to test thing out. I usually workout after work – so 5:30pm. I think this week, I should just focus on STRENGTH. Do you think I should TRY to get in my cardio if I feel ok ? or focus on strength this week?

    I would start with your strength and then see how you feel from there. That alone might be enough considering you were sick.

    Yea it might be tough if you don’t have a treadmill that has a one touch speed where you can just push 7.5 or whatever speed you need. If you have to use an up or down arrow it takes longer. Do the best you can.

    It should be
    2 LP (2 scoops protein)
    FR (medium apple)
    1/2 FR (100g blueberries)

    Does sparkling water count as part of your water intake?

    I don’t see why not. It doesn’t taste as refreshing.

    in reply to: Two Angle Dumbbell Curl #558037
    Maureen
    Moderator

    It is stated that the reps for the two angle dumbbell curl are “20 total.” Does that mean it’s 10 on one angle and 10 on the other angle for a total of 20, or do you consider the two moves together as one rep, therefore it’s a total of 20 reps on one angle and 20 reps on the other angle?

    I would read total as with both moves combined. 20 reps 10 one angle 10 the other angle

    in reply to: Casting to TV #557986

    Moderator

    I have to watch the videos on my iPhone (does everybody)? But I would love to be able to cast them to my Sony TV and see them on a big screen as I work out along with. Does anyone know if this is possible? I know how to cast something to the TV, but it doesn’t seem to accept PDFs…
    Is the e-book housed somewhere else I could access the overview and individual videos for the day’s workout? I can put a url into the TV and be able to go there…
    Any insight would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Usually with iPhone you can screen share. But your tv has to have that capability. I usually mirrors what’s on your phone. Give that a try

    Hi Maureen,

    28 gr of carbs

    If the exchange on that meal is 1 FR then you can have 1 medium banana. Follow the exchange list and you will be well fed 😊

    Option 1 for post work out meal states LP 2 scoops of protein powder. Option 1 for non work out states LP 1 scoop of protein powder. In the food exchange it states LP is 1 scoop. Should the post work out be 1 scoop or 2. Also in post work out meal options 1 it states FR 100g of blueberries. In the exchange list it says a FR is 200g of blue berries. Is FR 100g or 200g of blueberries.

    Checking on this for you.

    I absolutely cannot get this right. Is there an alternative to help me get stronger?

    Where are you having trouble? Maybe I can help

    I do weights first thing in the morning like 15 mins upon waking. And I do cardio in the afternoon. What order should I eat my meals? Meal 5 first?

    You could eat 1/2 of meal one in the morning , strength train and then have your post workout meal and a couple hours after eat the other half of meal 1band then continue on with your day

    Hi all,
    After my workouts, I make a protein shake with a banana. Is that enough carbs or do I need to include another carb?
    Thanks,
    Laura

    For your meal plan what does the post workout meal as for in terms of carbs?

    Burpee Bonanza it is for today. What is the difference between a jump lunge and a plyometric lunge?

    They are the same thing. Just got confirmation

    Just free with a bar. No squat rack. 🙁

    if you have two plyo boxes you could set the bar on there and then get under it….but if you don’t, it’s prob not safe to really try it any other way IMO

    May I substitute unsweetened coconut milk for the unsweetened almond milk in the recipes?

    almond usually has 30-40 calories…is coconut the same?

    For the at-home equipment workout- barbell kneeling squat.

    I feel like I could make it heavier, (have 60lbs on) but don’t know how I would get the weight off if it was heavier -am I crazy or is there a safe way to load up? (By myself)

    Do you have a squat rack? Or are you doing this just free with a bar?

    So 5 on each side for the knee tuck combo, correct?

    So 5 on each side for the knee tuck combo, correct?

    I would say do each move and that’s one rep….therefore you are doing 10 of each…20 total.
