Hey lucky you, hearing Cathe actually say your name in front of an audience must make things feel a l'il extra special!! But the question is, Catherine, will you continue to remain humble or will all this publicity just go straight to your head??

Yes, those tips really helped while doing this morning's disc 9. I used a 6" high step and was able to pick up the weights instead of sitting on the floor. LOL Actually, I used them to pick them up, and then place them back down. Wow! I really felt those!

Thanks again, Cathe! :-)

Yes thanks for the wall squat segment (I just saw it today because an e-mail was sent to me from SNM about it -- thanks!!!) I was having trouble going down as far as everyone (knee issues). So I loved the suggestion of using something to boost the weights up a bit. I have a bunch of old telephone books I never use and I think those will work perfect for me. I was doing them with weights, but just continually holding them and not going down all the way (but doing the holding pattern part of the exercise). I still felt it in my legs, but I think this will be better!

I love STS and thank you for the TV segments -- they are great! Julie

Yes thanks! I thought I was going way to low, and thinking my arms were way too short for not reaching the floor to grab my wts!!! But then when I saw Cathe from the side, I realized she was going pretty far below 90, and in fact, does not have monkey arms! So I realized I was doing them right. Of course, right doesn't mean easy, but I can do them, and they don't bug my knees like I thought they would. Especially surprised bc I have had bad knee issues in the past, which have been VERY good the last 6 or 8 months (YAY!) but they can be touchy.

I am LOVING the STS!!!!
