If you are more comfortable using dumbbells, Lisa, perhaps you could try substituting a lat pull down move with two light to moderate weights. You can pull one arm down at a time like in the video demo or both arms at once as Cathe does in several other workouts. Lat Pulldown Demo

Metabolic Med Ball Blast (Live #308) breathed life into my week with a workout unlike any of the DVDs! So fun, so fresh, so effective and all in 37 mins!

Just had to say, WAY TO GO! You have really taken responsibility for your health and worked so hard to improve it. You deserve a lot of credit slwitt! Working out with Cathe can not help but improve your overall health and wellness, so rejoice in that. I am wondering if you are seeing measurable...

Happy Birthday Carol Rose!! :):D (Sunday was my hubby' 63rd birthday so you are in good company.) You celebrated in style by doing a challenging workout - good for you. And as your GB Shaw quote says you don't have to worry about growing old because, thanks to your regular awesome workouts, you...

Just finished Low Impact Hiit. Really liked the moves selected for this workout - I think it is my favourite of her low impact cardio workouts. :) I personally found the two hiit workouts in this new series to be more of an intermediate level, but these will be good on days that I want a quick...

Yes, I too like and benefit from a thorough warm-up Linda. For me it is all about the breathing so I usually take a few slow really deep breaths while I bring my arms overhead before beginning and that helps me get my breathing nice and deep for the cardio to come. In terms of High Impact Hiit...

Couldn't wait to try Mobility Basics. This is the workout I was most looking forward so stopped everything the minute I downloaded it and gave it a whirl. Like MMarshall, Jennifer Denny and Firemedic I thoroughly enjoyed and benefited from it. This adds a whole new element and rounds out my...

First time doing Perfect 30's High Impact Hiit I got nervous as I saw drill after drill with squat thrusts. Whoa, can I really get down on the floor and jump back up THAT many times I wondered. o_O There are soooo many of them! Sounds scary doesn't it, but surprisingly they are manageable and...

Lotsa Lungin' Love! - LITE Lower Body Pyramid...whoa, I counted 260 lunges per leg!!

Wow! These premix options look....well simply...perfect! Everything from 10 -74 minutes and every combo possible. So excited...the three programs together offer a total package.

Thanks for all the posts. I too have not done this one in such a long time. Definitely motivated to do this one again soon!

Sooo many new moves. :DWhoo Hoo! How does Cathe do it? Looks like a really effective use of 30 mins!

Great questions Dan! Hopefully a Registered Dietician will weigh in here... What what I have found from my own reading on these topics is that drinking juice, even fresh pressed, is not as preferable as eating whole fruit because of the difference in fibre. And, it seems to me that electrolyte...

I have decided that I will never be able to safely lift much more than 45lbs up and over my head in order to place the bar on my shoulders. So, rather than a weight rack, I bought a weighted vest. It is great. It has twenty 1lb weights that fit in little pockets so I am able to gradually...

I think regardless of one's purpose for doing STS you get benefits from the program. People do it for a wide variety of reasons - one reason is no better than another. I think that all three mesocycles will benefit your kettlebell skills! And improved body composition and aesthetics is always a...

I tried the two times through approach for Meso 1 my first time using STS. I think I did it just to build my confidence - I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to progress at the same pace as the program. But in the end I didn't have the patience to do that and once I tried it as written I...

These are definitely some of my favs! They are serious stuff. Tough, results based workouts are what I enjoy most - they give you a real sense of accomplishment. I love the variety and knowing that whichever of these I choose it is time well spent. That's how I feel! I did Circuit Blast a...

I tried to do each STS disk twice per week and found it was too much. I only did it for a few weeks - definitely couldn't maintain it for 3 months. Forearms were sore from holding those heavy weights 6 days per week, and it just became too much work and not enough FUN. Also, deadlifts pop up in...

Everyone looks like they are having so much FUN! Can't wait to have fun along with you. Thanks for what looks to be an awesome series. :):D:cool:
