Disappointed I am disappointed in my performance for Disc 3: Legs. Last week I did Week 1, Disc 1,2 and 3 in preparation for doing it together with all of you. I found myself needing much longer breaks in between because my heart rate would sky rocket. I also had to drop down in weight for...

I thought the music for the first three discs in mesocyle 1 was right on cue with those doing the workouts in the video. The problem I am having, is that by rep 9 or 10, I start to slow down and am no longer working out to the beat. When I did p90x, I would mute Tony and listen to my Ipod...

I didn't want this thread to get buried . . . just trying to completely understand STS

I apologize in advance if this has been stated. The WorkoutCard for Meso 1 Disc 3 lists Wall Squats Double Leg (body weight) with a 60% 1RM, but the dvd shows using dumbbells. Also, the Sequential Lunge Into Front Kick Combo also lists 60% of 1RM, but does not appear in WM to take a 1RM...

Josh comment Your post was answered in another thread, only I don't know how to post the thread. So I copied and pasted Cathe's reply: Oops...that's what we get for playing around in the testing phase. We thought we got rid of all our playful comments (bear with us, we all put in some long...

Hi All, I also did disc 1 yesterday. I thought it was great. Did anyone else have to take extended breaks. Although I could lift the weights and felt my muscles really working by the last few reps, I became pretty breathless and my heart rate would go up. I am not sore at all, but I...

Sometimes I skim through entries on the forums and probably misread something. Or, I was secretly hoping not to work so hard. Thank you so much for clarifying my confusion. I did disc 1 today and loved every minute of it. Lina

Is Cardio a required part of STS? Hi Teddy 16410, Thank you so much for your reply and the time you spent looking for the thread. I found the excerpt you are referring to: "We will also be making cardio suggestions for STS. We will provide recommendations for various days, various...

Cathe or SNM, would you agree with the reply to my post?

Hi All, I just completed Mesocycle 1, disc 1. I can't believe how incredibly well my target weight (based on my 1 RM) worked out. I was struggling (with good form) to get the last one or two reps of each segment. So if you are still on the fence about not doing a one Rep Max for each exercise...

Initially, when I was reading about STS, I remember a thread that stated that the benefits of STS are optimal when cadio workouts are NOT added to the program. Those are not the exact words, or I may have misinterpreted what I read. In light of the rotation you posted, I am confused as to...

On Mesocycle 1 Disc 1, there are 2 exercises Seated Curls alternating Both Arms dumbbells Seated Lateral Raise both arms high end dumbbell that do not appear on WM 1RM calculater. The card does not list % of One Rep Max. I'm confused because I thought any exercises with weights...

Just substitue a UPS truck for the Oreo Cakester 100 calorie pack Truck. If you can't click on the link, go to www.youtube.com and search for Nabisco 100-Calorie Pack Commercial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geIbN05C6KU Is this what it was like at SNM headquarters

Nancy, This is a reply I received from SNM. Hope it helps. There will be some exercises that were listed incorrectly in the previous version of the WM. We had several cases where we had duplicate or wrong exercises with different exercises numbers etc. I think Squats was perhaps one of them...

When I attempted to print out a work out card for STS Mesocylce 1 Disc 1, I noticed exercises that needed a 1RM that did not appear on the One Rep Max Chart: 239, 681, 254 and 677. Is there an updated chart I can print out, or am I missing something? Thanks so much and the new WM looks...

SNM, I completed recording my 1RM yesterday. I also made changes to some that I did previously. When I went to print out my workout card, only the exercises I put in from last week were there. I was logged on or the system would not have allowed me to access my calendar. Can you tell me what...
