    Butts and Guts...feedback please

    I love love love Butts and Guts This is my go to workout for lower body. I feel every exercise working every muscle fiber I own. And I can't believe how incredibly tight I feel after doing this workout. I expected it to be easier after I did 2 rounds of STS, but it wasn't. The muscle...

    First visit to Podiatrist - What should I expect?

    Funny you should ask. I just took my 15 year old daughter yesterday. Sounds like she has the same issues as you do with your feet. She's a volleyball player . . . lots of jumps and quick movements. So, the podiatrist took a quick history of complaint. Diagnosed her within 3 seconds plantar...

    Oprah's "No Phone Zone Pledge".......

    I recently heard on the news that the most recent study did not show a decrease in car accidents since bans have been put in place. I just don't believe that. Personally, I think, hands-free devices should be banned as well. There are too many distractions on the road. I agree with the poster...

    bands in STS

    Not Cathe here. The more you use the bands, the more pliable they become. Keep workin' that green band and it will get softer and more stretchy. My green band recently split because I used it under a bench with sharp edges for one of the exercise. Not to bright of me. I'm now using the blue...

    I feel like I'm "cheating" on Cathe!

    I know what you mean, the person I feel like I cheat on is my hair dresser. I've been going to her for 10 years. Sometimes I feel like trying something new. 3 times in 10 years I tried someone else. But when I went back she always knew I "cheated' on her. Why do we carry such guilt . . ...

    how to get my hair to grow

    I agree with Mishel. Stop cutting it so frequently. Hair only grows about 1/2 inch per month. When you get it trimmed, it's really hard to cut much less than that. Your hair doesn't need to be trimmed so frequently to keep it healthy . . . every 12 -16 weeks should be enough to keep it...

    Parenting: Typical mistake, predictable outcome

    I never thought I would invade my children's privacy, but with the advent of texting and chatting on facebook, there's no way to overhear at least one end of a conversation and keep tabs on their social lives. I have a program called e-blaster installed on my children's computers (13 and 15...

    greek yogurt

    Oikos fat-free yogurt is so incredibly decadent, you would never know it's fat free . . . just 80 calories per 6 oz. I add a scoop of protein powder, makes for a delicious post-workout recovery snack. Not sure where you are from, but on the east coast you can get it at the Acme or Giant...

    Hiit and Headaches

    When I first saw this post, I wiped my brow thinking, I'm so glad I'm not getting headaches with the higher intensity workouts. Well, guess what, I did CCC this morning and a wicked , all-day headache started half way through. Looking back, I think it had to do with not breathing correctly and...

    Is anyone doing the Jan/Feb/March STS/Shock Cardio rotation?

    Never say never. I'm still working on the 30/30. For me it's been 20/40 for most of the exercises. When 40/20 comes up in the rotation, I'll do the best I can. That's all we can do. Betcha we will be able to do all the Cardio Shocks without modifying by the end. This is my 3rd time through...

    Is anyone doing the Jan/Feb/March STS/Shock Cardio rotation?

    Just wondering if anyone out there is doing the 3 1/2 month Jan/Feb/March STS/Shock Cardio rotation. I started last Monday and am on the 2nd week. I am loving it. I did 2 STS rotations already in the past year and would cheat on cardio days (like not do cardio). If we can keep each other...

    Problem with Calendar

    I downloaded the STS/Shock Cardio workout. It appears on my calendar. The only problem I am having is when I click on a future date to see the workout for the day a message pops up that says "workout already saved" and it will not let me view it. It only allows me to view/make changes to the...

    Protein Shakes?

    I use whey protein. I think Isoflex is whey as well. Cathe posted in other threads the exact supplements she takes. I wanted to buy the whey she uses becauses it is the highest quality. Does anyone remember what she posted, or can you point me to that thread. Thanks.

    Protein Shakes?

    I started mixing one scoop of protein powder into my 5 oz Oikos Greek Plain Yogurt. It's packed with nutrients and the protein I need after a workout. And it's tasty too. Good Luck

    Question about no rest week in new rotation

    Thanks, Maria. I checked W/O manager as well. I'm so glad the rest week is in there. I did the first workout today and I'm thinking I could use one already :) I'm really excited this time around as I often skipped a cardio workout when I did STS Strength before. Good Luck to you!

    Question about no rest week in new rotation

    Cathe, I noticed there is no rest week between mesocycles on the 3 month rotation. It seemed to have been stresses and encouraged when we were doing STS Strength Series. Can you give your thoughts on the pros and cons of both. Thanks so much. BTW, I am loving all the workouts. The...
