    Bosu Baby!

    Whatever direction Cathe will take for her next project will be awesome because she is a challenging, dedicated and CONSISTENT instructor. However I do have one suggestion and that would be to include a Bosu workout in her next series. Balance and functional exercise should be a part of any...

    Cathe - Desparate for Help!!

    Thanks Meowracer Thank you for that information. I am going to try and fit in more cardio. I think I need it because my lower body is getting rather bulky from STS. I switched to the STS plyo legs, and will incorporate more walking and cardo. I will say, STS kicks butt so I'm pretty tired...

    Cathe - Desparate for Help!!

    Thanks everyone! Thank you everbody for your responses! Oh well. I'll probably have to have them stretched if I want to wear the knee high boots. And yes, I bet those boot manufacturer's are men (all women are Twiggy's, right)????? I'll keep moving along - but the support of all of you on...

    Cathe - Desparate for Help!!

    I just tried on an awesome pair of boots, knee high, high heel - Love them, Love them. I know it sounds crazy, but I haven't been able to wear high heels since I was a teenager due to weight issues. Now that I've lost over 100 lbs., I love to wear heels. Here's the problem, many of the...

    IS IT REALLY ME?

    I have struggled with my weight for my entire life (I am soon to be 48 years old). After numerous diets (I have lost and gained the same 50 lbs at least a 1,000 times), endless, boring cardio routines that hurt my back and knees due to the excessive amount of weight that I was carrying around -...

    Bump it up

    I'd like to see a Circuit workout with the same level of difficulty (if not more) as the STS program. Perhaps another STS strength program taking it up another notch! I'd also like to see a workout using all plyometric moves - those plyos develop awesome strenth and muscle tone to the legs...

    Tell us about your STS results!

    Is this Me? I have some powerful definition in my arms, upper torso. In fact, several people have commented on my arms (sleeveless weather). I did not notice a lot of change in my legs/lower body. I think that I gained mass in bottom half, so for the next round, I think I'm going to change...

    Please Help!

    My Hero Thank you so much for replying Cathe. You are totally awesome - my hero. I talk about you all of the time with my work buddies, trying to get them on the STS bandwagon! Anyway, I'm going to give it a shot again on Monday! Have a nice Easter.

    Please Help!

    I am so discouraged! I am recovering from the worst bout of flu I've ever had! It started out as a cold, I kept working out, ignoring it. I ended up with a fever of 102 for about 3 days - so sick I could not get up to go to the docs. It ended up as pneumonia, and obviously, I can't work out...

    OMG tri set legs

    leg tri-sets Just completed Meso 2 - week 3 legs. For awhile there, I thought I was going to be sick! Had to rest a bit longer in between that last tri-set. I haven't worked that hard in a long, long time, but I think I pushed myself just a tad too much and had to back off a bit. I feel...

    GREAT JUMPIN JEHOSAPHAT!!!!!!

    OMG OMG I started Meso 2 this past week. Completed Disc 13 and 14 (legs). While doing these workouts, I thought to myself, "well yes, these are difficult, but no more difficult than Cathe's other tapes." WRONG!!! I am certainly feeling the DOMS - way down deep (the pain is good pain, not...

    Weebles Wobble....

    No equipment I found that the "no equipment" section on ab circuits was the hardest of them all (although I have not tried the partner abs yet). Although they look easy, those split-leg crunches are killers. It's unusual for me to experience DOM in the ab area, but after doing those a few...

    Well SHOOT! STS moves you cannot do???

    Pike help I have been doing Cathe tapes for several years and I still, for the life of me, cannot even do a two-legged pike on the stability ball. There was a time when I couldn't even do one pushup - I can now do multiple pushups. There was a time when I couldn't even do one pullup - I can...
