    2011 NEW YEAR'S STS CHALLENGERS: WEEK OF 1/30

    Hi Ladies, Yesterday I ended up doing Low Max and today was Disc 22 (Chest/Shoulders/Triceps). This one left me feeling spent.:o I kind of remember feeling the same way after Disc 11. Is it just me? I was feeling psyched to do the 6-month rotation next time around until this morning.:eek...

    I have been a stay at home mom for 12+ years and wouldn't trade this job for anything. Just as I was vacuuming last night (yes, on a Sat. night, what fun!:rolleyes:) I said to my husband that I need about 3 more hours in each day.:p I do pretty much everything except for mowing the lawn and...

    Hi Ladies, No worries, Kristin. Glad to know I'm not the only one with a crazy schedule!:) You are enabling me every time you mention Intensity. Wow, 15# biceps curls is awesome! I don't remember what my weight was for those, but certainly not that high! I do feel I'm getting stronger, I...

    Circuit Blast - Premix?

    I noticed under the STS/Shock Cardio Rotation there is a Circuit Blast cardio only premix. Under the DVD description there are no premixes listed. If there is such a premix have you done it and could you please describe it? I only have the download but was considering getting the DVD if there...

    Congratulations on your weight loss!:D Have you thought about getting up early in the morning before he wakes up? Or setting a certain time each day making sure he knows that is your "workout time" (like after he eats breakfast when he's got a fully belly and had a good night's rest). It...

    Hi Ladies, I officially wimped out this morning.:o I did Disc 19 (Shoulders, Chest, and Triceps) and for some reason I just could not keep up with the flat bench tricep extensions. I honestly wonder if I recorded my weight incorrectly or something.:confused::( I had to go down like half the...

    Early Risers??

    I was always a night owl until I went cold turkey almost two years ago, and I've been getting up around 5am ever since. Like you, I was faced with a situation in which I knew if my workouts were going to happen, they would only be first thing in the morning. My youngest was a baby at the time...

    Hi Ladies, I'm so behind I don't really know where to begin.:confused: I'm feeling much better tonight but the day started out pretty rough so no workout for me again today. Two of my kids came down with the stomach virus after me, so I hope this is it for our family for awhile.:eek: I...

    Hi Ladies, Yesterday was Disc 15 (back/biceps). It was the first time I had to go considerably lower in weight. My biceps just couldn't take it and I was feeling it in my wrists.:confused: Fortunately they are fine today. Someone asked me the other day what I like better about Meso 2...

    2011 NEW YEAR'S STS CHALLENGERS-WEEK OF 1/9

    Hi Ladies, This morning I did CCC followed by No Equipment Abs. I think that one is my favorite yet of the Ab Circuits. I think I've said that about others.:p Afterwards I did Stretch Max and it felt great! I'm surprised after yesterday's workout that I have very subtle DOMS, but maybe...
