STS system - what happens next?

Perhaps this has been answered elsewhere and I may have missed it. After you have gone through the 3 1/2 month cycle, do you start the rotation over again? In other words, what do you do with the DVDs after you have completed the cycle?

Thanks!:)
 
I would presume that you begin the three cycles again, but the second time around, you start from a stronger and fitter position with higher 1rms all round, so you increasingly lift more, although there is presumably a limit to what each person can actually lift. You also keep rotating between endurance based versus strength based training for max strength and max definition.

Exactly, the next time you repeat STS you should start at a higher Intensity since you should be stronger thanks to the benefits of periodization. You can repeat STS shortly after completing all three cycles or better yet you might want to take a break for a while and try something else to challenge the body in a different way. Then return to STS .
