    STS first time!

    Thank you all so much for your support -- it's so nice to have a place to come where people really care about each other. You ladies rock! STS M3 D38 Legs today. I'm almost halfway done, and should finish STS by the end of the year! Hopefully just in time to get XTRAIN.... I'm loving the...

    STS first time!

    Hi all, Sorry to be so scarce lately. Dad has been in and out of the hospital again. The doctors aren't sure exactly what is wrong, but he is clearly not recovering from his surgery. He can barely get out of bed and is just exhausted all the time. I'm really worried because he has lost over...

    STS first time!

    Thanks! I loved it -- lots of rest and time to change my weights. Before, I always felt I was rushing to get my equipment together, change my weights, etc. But I feel it already. Plus my youngest was playing "Here Comes the Bride" on a toy kazoo the whole time I was lifting and ummm, it was a...

    STS first time!

    Hi Ladies! It's been crazy 'round here, but I did manage to get MMA Boxing and the Heavy Bag add-on in. It's my first time with a heavy bag and I really really liked it. Enough that I'm getting a few more heavy bag boxing workouts to add in. I think this bag will get a lot of use as both my...

    STS first time!

    Hello all, I'm back in town and wanted to thank you all for the prayers and well wishes for my dad. It was so touching to me to see people thinking of us through the holidays, even when I wasn't here posting. You are really a lovely group of people! Dad is doing great and is now home from...

    STS first time!

    Dropping in quickly to let you all know that Dad had his surgery today and it went really well. The surgeon said he is already responding well and he tired, but feeling well. Thank you all so much for the prayers, good thoughts and kind words!

    Quickly checking in with STS Disc 18: Back and Biceps before taking off for the hospital with Dad. Have a great week all -- I can't wait to come back and do the second half of STS!!

    STS first time!

    Thank you all for the good thoughts for Dad (again!). It's so nice to find such a supportive place. We are feeling really hopeful this time and are excited to finally get this done. Jean, that's great about your mom! She sounds like a strong and resilient person. I had a brother, but he died...

    STS first time!

    Checking in with Disc 16, Ch, Sh, and Tri. I really love meso 2 -- I can see using this one a LOT! I'm going to miss a week though, in the middle of this meso as the doctors are going to retry my dad's surgery on Monday, so I'll be at Johns Hopkins for a week or two. Can't think of a better...

    STS first time!

    Jean, I'm glad I'm not the only one. I have hope that one day it'll get better. I like your idea of alternating the starting leg -- that might help a lot. Checking in with STS Disc 15. I liked this one a lot more than legs! :)

    Customised Blended Premixes- Is it the way going forward???

    The only Cathes I have on disc are STS, which I don't do premixes of, and a couple that I got on the deal of the day. I've gotten all the others on download because I like the option to cut them up in the workout blender and put them together however I want them. I go through phases where I only...

    STS first time!

    I liked the format a lot -- trisets make the time go fast for me. But I just have NO endurance in my legs, so all those lunges ... they wear me out! And today ... oh the DOMS! I can't even sit. Having two weeks off instead of just one between mesos and then coming back to STS really hit me hard...

    STS first time!

    Thank you so much! I have lots of DOMS today -- I didn't feel the work in my chest yesterday, I felt it much more in my shoulders and triceps, but today, I have DOMS all over my upper body, so I guess I hit all those muscles after all.:p Today was Cross Fire. I did about 40 minutes of it...

    STS first time!

    Hi all, Thank you for all the kind words and good thoughts for my dad. The docs released him last night from the hospital, so we are home now. They are going to try some medicine therapies to get his clotting factor back to where he could endure the surgery and have tentatively scheduled him...

    STS first time!

    Hello all, Thanks, Jean and cdimatt and all the rest of you for thinking of us, especially my dad. It's been kind of frustrating here, as the hospital was all ready to do his surgery, despite the storm, and Dad was ready. He had the tests and all and everything looked great. But when they put...

    STS first time!

    Hello all! I hope you are staying safe. We have no choice but to brave the storm and head to Baltimore as my dad is scheduled for his cancer surgery tomorrow. We are praying hard that they don't cancel it. But either way, they won't tell us until tomorrow if they are going to do it or not...

    STS first time!

    Hello all! Broke out the step again today for Low Impact Challenge. It looked easier on preview than it turned out to be, ha! But I liked it -- the choreography was fun but not too hard to pick up. Missy -- I hear you on the spaying. We paid a fortune to spay our pets, and two of them are from...

    STS first time!

    Missy, Congrats on hitting your goal! Great job! Thanks, Betty! It is a great one -- makes me really look forward to XTRAIN. Checking in with 30/30 HIIT. My, this one looked much easier on preview than it was. I really struggled in the 2nd half. My last couple of rounds were pretty weak...
