Our story is one of success, getting sidelined and “Starting Over”. Last year my husband, Dave and I did STS all the way thru for the very first time right before the 2009 Cathe roadtrip. And, what a SHOCK TRAINING SYSTEM it is! My body is very stubborn when it comes to change or seeing
I’ve been using Cathe’s workouts for about 5 years now. Before STS, I was always lifting the same weight loads for every resistance workout. When I heard Cathe was coming out with STS I knew this was a program I must buy and try so that I can gain some muscle and strength. I did
When I first heard about STS I was skeptical. I had incorporated weights in to my regular fitness routine for months, with minimal results, and I couldn’t understand how this program would be any different. At the 2009 Road Trip, I spoke to so many people who had done the program and they could not
I’ve always been an avid exerciser. I’ve actually been more than just ‘avid.’ I used to work out to the point of insanity, really. I’d get up early and workout, go to work, come home, go to the gym, and then workout till bed time. I basically worked myself to exhaustion, just to get up
I have been a Cathlete since 2005 when I first saw Cathe on FitTV. Being a single mom it is a lot easier for me to workout at home than try to make it to the gym. I first bought some of Cathe’s cardio DVD’s. I added her weight workouts because I kept reading how
Over the last several years, I’ve participated in numerous marathons and triathlons. Sometime early last year, I started to really burn out both physically and mentally. I knew it was time for a break. I didn’t see the inside of a gym for a few months. Triathlon season came and went, without me even lacing
All throughout my childhood I was always a little chunky. (Picture of me in my Texas sweatshirt) My mom on the other hand always worked out and used Cathe videos to do so. I saw how she always looked good and stayed in shape. One day in ninth grade, I went home and took off
I debated on buying STS, but I am so glad that I did. I have always been very physically active all my life. When I purchased STS, I was running 30 – 40 miles a week. I was not watching my diet and not lifting one weight. So I decided I needed to change because
When I started the STS program a year (or so) ago, I was not one to weigh myself, take tons of measurements and take before/after photos. While I was hoping for results, I wanted to feel them versus document them, if that makes sense. I wanted to experience all that STS could be, but not
Prior to STS, I had been doing weight workouts at my local gym a few times a week, with limited success. I was frustrated as I had been working out – a combo of 3-4 weight workouts (45 mins – 1 hr) plus 3-4 cardio workouts a week (Cathe DVDs, mainly) – yet only feeling
