When I started I did a few practice runs and used just the bands in place of pull-ups. For me the push-ups were tough but the bands didn't come close to replacing the pull-ups. I think the pull-ups add that extra effort that makes the workout. When you get to arms and shoulders the bands will... -
Moving to the Iowa City area
Haven't been there for about 4 years but when we were there both teams were top 10 in the state and dominate. I'd say around 2000-2004 was when both teams were pretty solid. That's when West was coming off of one of the longest losing streaks every. Then with their new coach and about 3 years of... -
Moving to the Iowa City area
I have to agree with Bobber here. My wife and I live in IC for 10 years and moved back here about 4 years ago. For the most part we loved IC. The food, varitey of, and number of restaurants are outstanding. We travel back there about 1x/month to see friends (non Hawk fans) and eat at our... -

Cool, sore is good, that means it's working. :biggrin: I just finished up Legs and Back Week 2 of Phase 2 so this is like the 5th time I've done the routine and I still had to stop in the middle because I was so winded. I still get sore from almost everyworkout but it's not as bad as the 1st... -

I'm not an ebay person but I don't think it'd be a problem. I've heard others buying them on ebay, some with the nutrition guide and some without. If you can find both then that's great. -

Not a bad idea but that'll be a few years down the road. We've go a few other priorities infront of that and for us, the house is big enough for what we need right now. Now if you're offering to donate then I'm willing to accept. :jimlad: I also find spending other peoples money is easy... -

They recommend 6-8 for size and 10-15 for tone or lean. -

Weeeellllll...our funds aren't endless and I'm pretty content with it the way it is right now. All I do is go down there work my butt off and sweat like an s.o.b. What would you recommend?:huh: -

Not a big fan of Yoga yet but it's growing on me. I look at it as something I wouldn't normally do and don't do well but to prove I can do it, I'm working pretty hard at it. Best thing I've found is to do it with someone else. I can't do the moves and look at the TV so when you do it with... -

Our basement isn't finished so we don't have a doorway down there to use a door mounted pull-up bar. I looked at a pull-up tower but they were expensive and only 1 person could use it at once. Soooooo....I took 1" steel pipe and hung one in our basement. It has 9 total parts plus 4 3/8"x4"... -

Checking in to see how folks are doing with the workouts and stuff. My wife and I just finished up our phase 1 recovery week which was was still some hard work. Got into Core Synergistics 2x's this week and it's a tuff workout. Did Yoga 2x's, Stretch 2x's, and Kempo once. I previewed the... -

I'd get the pull up bar, it shouldn't take up much room at all. Then I'd go with the bands for everything else. I think if you get the 3 or 4 sizes, the upper two will challenge you. I have to travel the week of the 23rd and that's the week I start phase 2. I plan to take the pull up bar... -

Glad you were able to find a set of DVD's online. As for nutrition, I haven't found the formal giude online but the link below has some really good information in it posted by a guy called RedFalcon16. As well there are several threads in the Beach Body Forum on nutrition where folks post... -

I do mine on a 5x7 rug and then pullups on an bar that I made in my basement. I'd say of you had a 10x10 space +/-2 you'd be ok. I did a couple of days in a hotel room last week. I just moved a coffey table and chair and had all the room I needed for legs/back and Kempo. Plyometrics will... -

Did mean it to be smart a55, sorry you took it that way. I really didn't think I said anything wrong. And seriously, this is a major time commitment. It's 6-7 days a week and every day it's 60 minutes of extreme physical activity. I get up at 4:30am every morning just to be able to get the... -

I'd say unless you’re a high end or elite athlete or doing triathlons year round this workout will challenge you. It's a really good total body workout…… stretching, yoga, strength, agility, etc. It's a good mix with tons and tons of variation. The abs workout is only 16 min and I couldn't do... -

If you follow the program and push play it will work. They've done their work putting a really good product together, now it's up to you to put the time and work in. And I mean work. I've had things sore that I didn't know could be sore. :eek: -

Just checking in how everyone's doing. Here it is late Sat. night and my butt is so sore from legs and back it's not funny. I have a hard time sitting down playing with my son. Stretch tomorrow the start week 3 of phase 1. Things are progressing. Still can't get through AR X without many... -
Future Wrestlers
Nope, WSR stuggled before Rick Caldwell came in. He has a great history prior to WSR but I can find any details. I know he coached at Ames high and I think Clarinda or Clinton. Here's a good link that talks about how good of a team he has created (4th in the Nation in 2008). Waverly...
