Finished my six month STS rotation last night!!! I did each week twice before moving on to the next week and took a recovery week every 8 weeks. I didn't lose weight, but that's because I ate like crap the entire time and because I went on some medication that causes weight gain. But that's...

I did Cardio Kicks yesterday and I did Circuit Max just last week. I really like both these workouts and still find them in my DVD player quite often. Cathe seems pumped and ready to work in both workouts! Cardio Kicks has more of a hi-lo/kickbox feel than KP&C or Kick Max but it is fun and...

I used dumbbells for bench presses during meso 3 and it worked just fine.

I know! I mean, the literal video for "Total Eclipse Of The Heart" is hysterical and extremely clever, but the guy who wrote the 'literal' version had some pretty awesome material with which to work. "What the effing crap?/That angel guy just felt me up" has to be my favorite line.

I have exactly one week to go and I will be done with my six-month STS rotation. I started in Feb. and did not miss one single STS workout. I LOVE STS!!!! Let me start by saying that while I've always enjoyed lifting, I'd consider myself a 'cardio' girl. I would often have to psych...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lj-x9ygQEGA "Slo-Mo Dove." OMGosh! I am still laughing. Enjoy!

Nettie! Congrats!!!!!! Just make sure your victory dance is free of f---y scoops!! See you and the rest of the hive on the 30th!!!

Holla! G-Fiddy on the mic!!

Grey Fifty-Sixth. Yikes. I'd better be behind the scenes with a craptastical stage name like that.

PLB is my all-time favorite Cathe lower body workout. I have tons and tons of plates so I can add 5 or 10 lbs to my barbell fairly quickly. But seeing as Cathe does leg presses, squats, lunges, and deadlifts with dumbbells only throughout STS mesos 1 and 2, the same could be done while doing...

Happy Birthday!!! I think with all that STS Shock Cardio rehearsing you've been doing (not to mention the billion other things you do!), you've earned yourself some cake. Hope you have a great day planned - you deserve it! :)

Nettie, every year I get a kick out of reading your Sobriety post, 1.) Because I'm stinkin' proud of you!! And 2.) Because you make me laugh like no other. Congrats on 22 years, congrats on your "Insanity," and thanks for 'bee-ing' my friend!!! Go on with your bad, bald self!!!

Congratulations to you and hubby for sticking with the program!!! I have two weeks to go and I'll be done with my six month rotation!!! I bet you'll continue to see results. Wow, an almost 16# weight loss is something to be very proud of!! Personally, I can't wait to mix up STS Strength...

Annette (Aquajock) answered this very question for me yesterday - the deluxe package comes with 3 extra DVDs - Interval Sports Drills (or something like that), and ab workout (Cardio Abs or Insane Abs), and an upper body workout. I believe the deluxe set also comes with an eating plan/guide.

Agreed! I'm always super exhausted by that six and final cardio portion. Love Circuit Max. In fact, I haven't done it in a long time, but this thread has inspired me. I'm gonna do it tomorrow!!

Well said. My dad's mother passed away when he was seven. He often tells the story of how he had to dig his fingernails deep into his palm so that he could cry at her funeral. But I think his lack of tears was due to shock and a grief-induced state of numbness. I don't know the whole story...

I think it's one thing to go to a store for a few hours. It's another thing entirely to go to an awards ceremony, PLUG your new record label, talk about your new Blu-Ray venture, and dance in your seat - and your son's body hasn't even been put in the ground yet! That, to me, speaks volumes...

"Purple Rain"!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Large sunglasses, odd script, poor acting, AWESOME soundtrack, and 80s fashions come together in my hometown - Minneapolis - for one of my favorite movies of all time.

I. Just. Fainted.
