Another key difference between 1.0 and 2.0 is that the three mesocycles of 1.0 are all 3 day per week splits that last 4 weeks, while 2.0 uses different schemes in each phase (Total Body 3x, Upper/Lower split 4x, and Body Parts 5x). I have done STS 1.0 several times and love it. I'm in week 5...

With a new series coming out, will you be combining some of the Hardcore Series workouts on one dvd, like you did with Bodyblast and Intensity? Can we ever expect to see this happen? Thanks!

Hi Kim, I've only tried Legs and Glutes once, and I liked it enough, but I LOVE PLB! I gets DOMS from that like nothing else, and find it's the one workout that has much more focus on the hams. I've noticed much better definition in my legs since using it. But -everyone is different, and if...

Donna - that's awesome! Congratulations! I always thought what a gift it would be to see ourselves as others see us (well, some others;-) You obviously made a great impression.

My votes are for barbells & books (too cute!) and rhythmic reading (also cute!!) Kerrie

I feel that way going to Plimoth Plantation! Even though the village is a replica, it is an authentic representation, and is wild to see how these people lived and what they endured! When I think of the houses we have today...no way could we make it living like they did. Reminds me of...

Sarah - so you do 6 days of cardio, huh? How long are your cardio sessions? Do you vary them at all? Just curious because I've always done a lot of cardio, and do try to mix it up, but have been experimenting lately, especially with all the talk about how too much can eat up muscle. Doesn't...

Hi Julie - welcome to Cathe and the forum! I've been working out with her for about a year. First found her on FITV doing Boot Camp (love it!) and then found this website. Let's just say a lot of money has passed under the bridge since then. I don't know what your fitness level is, but when...

Robin - I understand how you feel. We had to put our cat down a few years ago (she was 17 and like my first baby). It actually became one of my best memories of my husband - he had no particular attachment to our cat, but he was the one who took her to the vet, and told me he went into the...

I own my own business so I'm the one who sets the dress code! Unfortunately (I guess in this sense) we are a financial/insurance firm so need to convey a professional image to our clients and the public. That means typical business attire - though we do have a dress down day on Fridays that...

Mariangeles, it took quite a while to get that email confirmation that it shipped and probably 10 days after that to actually receive it. It was tough to wait! But I kept checking the Beachbody forums to keep my interest piqued and was ready to go once I finally got them. Good luck! Kerrie

If you like Barbara Kingsolver, you must read The Poisonwood Bible. It's one of my favorites of all time. Prodigal Summer is very good, too. Since you've read her others, maybe you've read these, also, but I thought I'd mention them again since I am a big Kingsolver fan. Happy Reading! Kerrie

I read the Da Vinci code a long time ago, before all the fuss, and didn't love the story or Dan Brown's particular style, but was very intrigued by the history and conspiracy stuff. So much has been done on it now that it has really lost its appeal. But it's good to raise questions...questions...

I don't really have knee issues, but I'm afraid I will develop some because I'm starting to hear some cracking and popping. I don't modify so much as really, really concentrate on my form when doing lunges, squats, etc. and make sure all the weight and energy is in my heel. I was also advised...

Hi Brandi, I used to suffer horribly from pms, too. Lately, I have become much more regular and don't seem to get as many symptoms. I noticed a change when I started the Zone diet, and even though I don't follow it too closely anymore, I do still incorporate many of the principles, like...

I have a BS in social studies - double major in economics and history - and 1/2 of a master's down in public policy. My surprise! second baby came halfway through and, well, life took hold... I run my own financial/insurance firm so don't really use my degree per se. But I have also run the...

Congratulations, Lois! You are a great example of someone who isn't afraid to follow her dreams... Kerrie

Hey, Lori and others... I don't want to put anyone off reading Running With Scissors. It's disturbing in the sense that this is a true story, and how sad that any child could have been raised in such a bizarre environment - BUT it is written in an almost matter of fact, humorous, even...

I've already read The Kite Runner, so I can discuss it now, or wait til September. Either way is fine with me. I probably won't read anything new this summer since I already have a line up of books I've been waiting to get to. I'm in the middle of Running With Scissors if anyone is interested...

Okay - so I guess I should go back to my longer, more frequent cardio sessions and see if I notice any changes, right?? This may just be what my body needs. I get it now....;) Thanks for all the posts! Kerrie
