I agree, Plyo Legs is super tough cardiovascularly and in terms of a muscular challenge. :pBut it will get you ready for Cardio Legs in XTrain! ;) Good luck with your remaining three weeks of STS, Nicki.

Congratulations Dchisum!! Good for you! You commited a lot of time and did a lot of hard work. So good to hear you saw great results that made it all worthwhile. Good luck with K. C.-Meyer's program and P-90X. You are ready!

Good for you, jkg501! Great that you have kept your fitness level up over the years and that you have gotten back to Cathe and not let the gym closures stop your fitness efforts. I would suggest a total body weight training program. Where you can not switch out weights every few minutes you...

I'm 3 workouts into the rotation and loving every minute of it! Yesterday was Hard Strikes (no conditioning). Where it is the shortest of the programs on the schedule I added the heavy bag bonus (3 tabatas). I don't have room for a bag in my workout room so I just did the tabatas without the...

Wow Penny. You are doing so well!! Not missing a workout AND adding 2 walks and spin to the rotation. Amazing. You will certainly deserve those results when they come your way. :) Hope the online teaching is going okay. I jumped on the XTrain yesterday! So excited to start this 90 day journey...

Thanks Nicki! Hope you have had a wonderfully restorative and relaxing week. Good luck with Meso 3!

Finished STS yesterday! :):pWhoo Hoo! Did the plyo leg option and fit in 2 of the squat rack leg workouts as well. Great sense of accomplishment as you gals all know. Thanks for helping to get me through it - loved the encouragement you all gave me. And knowing you were sweating along with me...

Great work, mbg1982! Disc 38 is serious stuff!

Great work gals! Today I did Disk 35. Only one more disk to go! Whoo hoo! Also did 2 of the Total Body Stretching segments. Felt good.

Thanks for the suggestion of Core Max! After X10 (62 min. premix) I did Core Max Stability Ball. It is 20 minutes long which I liked and it is very doable - which I also really liked! No dread factor with that one. X62 on the other hand - it was brutal! Not a second of down time. I had forgotten...

Got a run in yesterday and then did Cardio Core Circuit as planned. A warning! CCC is tough!! I think the ab moves are the hardest of ALL Cathe's ab moves. They require a lot of hip strength. I had to modify 2 of them. My 60 year old body just couldn't do the back rolls and then quickly switch...

Good for you Dchisum! And so awesome that you have found the time has gone by quickly! Love your positive attitude! You are so close to the end, mbg1982!! Great job hanging in there! Wow, nickisteen! Not only 2 full STS programs in one day, you also managed to fit in abs and a thorough...

Took a rest day on Saturday and yesterday I did Disk 33 and Extended Stretch and went for a long walk. So good to get out in the sunshine these days. Planned to do Squat Rack Legs today (Disk 39) but forearms are a little tight from yesterday's workout. So hope to go for a run today (going up to...

Felt like all the hard word of STS started to pay off yesterday! Woke up feeling sore and tired. But by the afternoon I was full of energy and did more than usual :) - a little 3km walk/run with hubby + shovelling +. Disk 32 (Plyo Legs) + KPC. I think I am finally building some stamina. Yay...

So good to hear that there are still a few of us hanging in with STS! So motivating to be doing this alongside you all. This is my 3rd or 4th time too. I try to fit it in every year or two as well. It was produced 12 years ago, but it certainly stands the test of time! So well designed and...

Google Classroom has been used by all teachers in Nova Scotia for the past few years. I have just learned how to use it myself and it certainly was a learning curve. But it is awesome once you get used to it. Good luck on Monday! I felt like kickboxing too. :) Did Kick Punch and Crunch...

Sorry to hear about your knee Sheree81! Good reminder to ensure we all do very thorough warm ups before such demanding workouts. Hope it heals quickly.

Yesterday I shovelled for an hour - the heaviest, wettest snow ever! Then went for a walk (a trudge! ;)o_O) for an hr. and a half through the slush and snow. That unexpectedly put the kibosh on any Cathe workouts for the day (except a bit of needed stretching) and left me with a sore back. But...

Good for you, Penny! :) Hopefully I can go into XTrain a little stronger than last time too. I am in week 3 of Meso 3. By next week I will see if I was able to gain some strength. I will let you know! But, so far so good. Thanks for thinking of me, Penny, and giving me the heads up. I will be...

Thanks for the inspiration, Penny! STS is going well. With fewer distractions now it is easier to fit in my workouts and stay on schedule. I am on track to hop on board the X Train on Monday, April 6. Thanks for laying down those train tracks and getting things all ready for us! You are making...
