    My Cardio Superset Review

    Cardio Supersets Feedback I did Cardio Supersets plus the Step portion to equal 63 min. workout. I have to say this workout kicked my butt! I kept thinking, oh she's going to make me do these two again! I kept going, and going, and going..just about saw stars towards the end! Never ran out...

    Afterburn: Two Thumbs Up!

    Cathe - thanks for the advice. I figured maybe my body's fighting all my activity...I've been doing some double workouts (am/pm) to try to get this weight gain off (I think I usually gain when I do the Meso cycle - does this seem right?) I definitely have my healthy snacks along the day...

    I feel so out of shape...

    Don't beat yourself up! This is one tough workout! Did it yesterday and I paused too. These girls have some cardio endurance! Not sure if I'll ever get there, but as long as we're moving, it's a good thing! Enjoy the rest of the series - you started off with definitely the hardest one! :)

    Rotation with LIS

    This is so great! Thanks. I'm trying to do all these workouts as fast as I can, but I need to give my glutes a break! Dixie cups are killers :) Thanks for making us Work Work!

    Afterburn: Two Thumbs Up!

    I second those emotions!! I did Afterburn today (Friday) cuz I like to go out with a Bang for the weekend. I think I went out with a fizzzzzle. I had to keep pausing my dvd too many times, but I muddled through it. Maybe since I've done 4 workouts now in a row, starting with Low Impact...

    Yoga Relax

    Good - maybe I can do this at night so I can get to sleep easier. :eek:

    Slide & Glide

    I agree with Beth - a little learning challenge with the slide discs. Sometimes you have to lighten up a bit on how hard the balls of your feet are on it (hanging on for dear life..) like when you do the side to side lunges so you can keep up with Cathe. I'm sure it'll get easier each time...

    Loved Low Impact Step Challenge!

    NOMS not DOMS for LIS LIC!!! Got my discs yesterday and so psyched like the rest of you! I previewed a few last night, and decided to start with this one (since Afterburn looked like a killer:cool:) I used the 2 step risers and, at first, the warmup is FAST I thought but got used to it...

    Nervous Newbie

    I'm currently in week 3 of Meso 1 (have had STS since pre-sale ;)) and just wanted to share - I'm getting the pump back in my arms! Meso 1 always does that with ALL those pushups! Cathe mentioned in one of her dvds..."If you want good arms, you haveto do pushups!) I hate 'em but if you keep...

    Bummer!

    First of all HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Well, I don't know your husband etc. well enough so I would say: 1) Hope the jewelry was nice - it always is and it's not something you would buy yourself. 2) It really sucks that your husband didn't listen to you - now you have to go out and spend MORE money to...

    Heart Palpitations

    This is very good advice. I happened to have the baseline EKG done - mostly because of anxiety. I was only 46 when I had it done. Everything was okay, but now I have a baseline on file I guess. It probably is due to stress - last week I had to see my beautiful 28 year old niece buried. It was...

    Any Cathlete out there who has tried Jillian Michaels

    I did get a dvd of Jillians and it didnt move fast enough for me to get my heart rate up. Maybe another one of hers would. 28 minutes isnt a whole lot of time, especially if that includes warm up or cool down. What I'd like to try is Bob Harper's dvds. I have a feeling he'd hurt you a little...

    Great idea for rotations for Cathe

    Cathe, I was thinking what fun it would be, and what a great help it would be to you too, if you asked the Cathletes to come up with a rotation. Maybe do a contest with some sort of incentive (like the Success Stories and the Recipes). You could use one of these rotations to substitute in...

    Like the others better than STS ::sigh:::

    It is everyone's preference how they work out for sure. I found Meso 1 to definitely exhaust me for the push-ups, etc. The leg workouts aren't too hard - I know it depends on how much weight you use... Maybe if you do those and then hit the weights another day the way you like;) Then...

    the STS curse!

    I feel for you. I've also strained my shoulder when doing Meso 3. It is a small muscle (that we're trying to get bigger :)). I've had to back off and just do smaller weights or modify any way I need to. It's not worth getting the injury. Work around the curse! Good luck!

    Is STS useful when trying to lose weight?

    Okay - so you have all of our interest peaked:) My one question is how many cardio days did you fit in? I always find it hard to have too much energy left for cardio days if I do STS 3x/week. Can't wait to hear from you on this! BTW, I find that I don't lose any weight until I'm into Meso 2...

    Will we ever see Cathe's abs again?

    Yes - it is always motivational to see her abs! :D I guess it's all what she wants to wear. Just wanted to say that I noticed too about the full leg pants, etc. I dont know how the girls wear the pants - I'd have to peel them off when I'm done! LOL

    COMMIT TO GET FIT & LEAN FOR AUG 29,2011

    Okay - I'm jumping on this get bandwagon! I had a cold all last week and just couldn't work out. I was bummed! Plus, I had 3-4 days of not being able to eat healthy...along with a not so great August...so I'm feeling better and committing to get fit & lean:cool: Did SJP 65 minutes today and...
