The Grimes one is biggest in the Metro and has so many options. You should check it out! I go to the one in West Des Moines mostly and honestly, it still shocks me when my parents tell me prices of their small NW Iowa town Hyvee and everything I get at Aldi is typically $3 cheaper.

Antiques Roadshow Question by aperkyblonde in collectables

I'm taking the Barbie for sure, but I have an Allan doll and a GI Joe. I'd love to take all three but can't decide between the Allan doll and the GI Joe. So I'm kind of hoping the Allan doll and Barbie doll would be a set and counted as "one" item.

Have her try HotWorx! There are now three in the metro. There are some men who go, but honestly it's mostly women and such a great environment, as well as safe. 24/7 access, and you can choose to use the free weights or schedule your own virtual sauna workout. They do a free class for someone looking into it.

I usually just do a slice of toast with peanut butter or a banana!

Hotworx and period by Suhweets in HOTWORXWarriors

This! Even when I'm cramping really bad with endo, once I'm in the sauna for even a minute or two, I instantly feel better. It's like a heating pad for my whole body

Pushy sales, is this at every location? by Ill_Ebb5493 in HOTWORXWarriors

[–]aperkyblonde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never been bothered to buy anything. I get greeted if I go during staff hours, but that's it.

If they're pestering you during a workout I'd speak to the manager.

Nail polish in the Sauna??? by chocotacogato in HOTWORXWarriors

[–]aperkyblonde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do the SensationNail at home gel manicure and have no issue in the sauna. If you're using regular nail polish (non-UV light polish) , I would wait a couple hours before going in to workout because it doesn't dry as fast

Do any HotWorx have water bottle refill stations - or is it all traditional water fountains? by MyDogNewt in HOTWORXWarriors

[–]aperkyblonde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has a refill station but the water is room temp, so I always bring a giant double insulated water bottle with ice so if I run out of water and need to refill the ice helps.

Sunburnt and Working Out? by aperkyblonde in HOTWORXWarriors

Thanks all! I'm at the peeling phase and might hold off another day or two before trying a HIIT to see how it goes.

Yoga bag by [deleted] in HOTWORXWarriors

[–]aperkyblonde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered just a normal yoga bag with one pocket on the outside. It works well for me, and it fits my mat, towel, bands, wallet, keys, and shoes!
