newbie...overwhelmed!

[mom2one]

Took your advice, Janis and did Chest and Shoulders, Triceps from Meso 2 (disc 22) today!!! OH MY!! I absolutely LOOOOVE it!!! I just simply love love love lifting weights! I can't wait to dive into the full STS program when I get back!! I have a feeling though I'm not going to be able to raise my hands tomorrow, even though I lifted a bit on the lighter side!

Grabbed the rest of the progam (Squat Rack, Abs Circuits and the STS Total Body) in "Today's Deals"! Now I just need to save some money for the step. I used my transFIRMER FIRM step this a.m. to mimic the incline bench and it worked fine, but it falls a little short of my body and not very comfortable. Seeing how much Cathe has this step/high step in most of her workouts I would rather have it.

Plan on doing Butts & Guts tomorrow, Meso disc 24 (Back and Biceps) on Wed., K,P,C on Thur. and Travel Fit on Friday before heading to TX on Sat.

I did Butts & Guts this Sat. and my abs are still feeling it! Question: I tried doing the bonus ab work on the stability ball from this program which was very challenging but the only move I could not for the life of me do, was the side oblique move with the band overhead!! I kept rolling down and off the ball! Is there a modified move for this one? All the other moves I was able to do, but it's a killer routine! I plan on doing more of the floor work (just did standing leg work this weekend) tomorrow. I never realized just how compromised my lower body has become!!! I've been so busy working my upper body that things have...um.. gone south! LOL Definitely need more lower body work!
