    Yes, we use free weights and bands, as well as weighted bars and stability balls. No machines or heavy weights. I would say one of the classes I go to a week is probably a little more cardio oriented and the other tends to be more weights and core, with some, but less cardio.
    I've done personal training twice and neither seemed to make much of a difference, except a little upper body definition. Of course, this was before a lot of the current group training stuff and I always convinced the trainer I couldn't do one more . And my eating was still a little carb heavy then, too.

    One more weigh in on Friday. Then over the weekend I'll start another thread to see who all is in for 8 more weeks.
    You too can help me fight cancer, and get a lovely cookbook for your very own! My team's cookbook is for sale Click here to order. Proceeds go to our team's fundraising for the Philly Livestrong Challenge!

    106.8
    I don't remember my beginning weight, but I'm 2.8 pounds away from my goal. This has been my only challenge where I did not meet my goal or maintain my goal.
    This weight is OK, but I need to be a little lowerr to have some wiggle room.

    126....the wrong direction but my new jeans are fitting more loosely, so something is happening.
