    Consecutive Days Question

    HI Kim: this is just my opinion, but I would not recommend doing two upper body workouts back to back like you describe... in doing the first few weeks of STS already, I can not imagine doing them one after another. I do not believe that you would diminish any results if you reorganize the...

    STS Check In Disc 7....

    "LOL" was not exactly what I was thinking during all those stinkin' pushups! :eek: One of these days I will get through them. I have a tendancy to feel them in my shoulders and back during the workout and end up with sore triceps and shoulders DOMS the next... I did like the stability...

    sit and stands

    Check out the recent week 3 Cathe TV release... I believe that is one where she goes over the one legged sit/squat issue... she definately says that if they cause pain, then do NOT do the exercise and modify as needed... I have knee pain as well and have not tried her modifications but they...

    Wall Squats?

    Just a thought, but could you just install one 4x8 sheet of plywood or sheetrock up somewhere on a wall opposite your TV set up so you would be able to do these? That way it isn't too expensive (not sure what one sheet of plywood would be at Home Depot or Lowes) but would give you some place...

    anyone use Turbo Tax

    IMHO, you can't beat Turbo Tax! I have used TT for the past 5 years! I get a small discount through my credit union but not much of one (www.stcu.org) and you don't have to be a member to use it, just click on the TT link from their home page... I have a rental property as well, so I use the...

    disc 6 in the books! my buns are nice and toasty and will be screaming loudly tomorrow when I try to get out of bed... I'm looking forward to the first time I get to sit on the "throne" though! :eek: I couldn't do the one legged sit/stands because if knee issues, so I was HAPPY to see this...

    thanks for the update SNM. I was hoping I would not have to re-load the rotation :)

    Calendar Problem Entering Calories

    well... not exactly... I just logged out of WM and logged back in. I have the 3 month STS rotation (new edition with all the cardio suggestions updated) and still the only DVD's that show any durations, calories or MET values are Non-STS workouts. However, if I add a new STS disc...

    Even when I'm exhausted...

    Dela: couldn't have said it better myself! I totally agree that M/W/F (or sometimes Saturday) are reserved for my STS, no matter how I feel, or what my day was like! this was the whole appeal of STS for me though.. VARIETY! Nan: had to LOL at your excuses! You must have heard my ESP...

    Toughest STS Disc For You...So Far

    STS Disc 3 legs! For me, while I don't know if it was the hardest workout I have ever done, I do know that it was the most PAINFUL for almost a week after! yeah DOMS??? the 2nd time through was not near as bad! I definately "feel" it the next day after ALL of the STS workouts though...

    STS CHECK IN ....DISC 4

    Thanks Cathe :) I don't think I could go any heavier as I'm huffin pretty hard to do the last few reps, but will definately try to slow down the count and try the 4/4's and see if that helps. I do remember getting some good DOMS in the chest with GSCT but I think I did them on the floor...

    incline/flat bench chest flies

    Hi Cathe: I, for one, am having a difficult time isolating the chest muscles in either of the chest flies positions. Would it be possible to add these exercises to your list of CatheTV form pointers :) Loved the first two weeks of STS so much that I am doing them again with you! seeing...

    Dear Barney... (aka Les): Please do not take this the wrong way as it is meant in the nicest possible spirit of friendship and care... YOU SHOULD ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR WIFE! Even though she seems to talk a lot and sometimes I'm sure you hear the "wah wah wah... wah wah wah" (Think Charlie...
