Hi - just curious and wanted input - when you utilize the gym style series (assuming you do all 3 together in a given week), do you also do 1 full body workout (such as muscle max or muscle endurance)? That was traditionally my mo, to work each body part minimum of 2x per week, but I got such...

NYC has always been a popular backdrop for movies for obvious reasons but over the last 10 years or so they film all over all the time because of the tax breaks Mayor Bloomie approved to get the revenue into the city .... Filming was at a standstill for a few months (outside of some of the tv...

Congratulations Kathryn -your time is fantastic - I know runners that run slower than that :-) The event on the other hand - what a disorganized mess for walkers - New York Road Runners has walking events in conjunction with several health related races throughout the year (R-baby foundation...

sorry to hear that ....maybe bad yeast?

As I download my roadtrip docs, I made sure to print this as well :-) thanks again!

Mix the yeast with the warm water, then put it in a warm place to rise (you could put your oven on and then place in the center on the stovetop, so it gets the rising warm air)....it should bubble and fizz....it will take about 10 or 12 minutes to do so. Then you typically have the other wet...

I would probably go with a 3 month rotation to be safe - 6 months cuts into holidays and even with the best intentions, workouts are usually skipped or cut down on because it is such a busy time.....

Rather than share my horror story with you, I wanted to wish you luck and say let's focus on the positive --- you will lose weight - I lost 10 pounds effortlessly ..... the best part of the whole experience.

omg, this made me crack up ... so true...people think i am a serious fruitcake for the enjoyment I take in this weekend full of workouts!

Don't worry about a thing....the energy in the room is infectious....folks are so jazzed to be working out with Cathe in person and she is so high energy you get through all the workouts without even thinking about it. Also, Cathe gears the classes towards all levels - so if you want to take it...

I admit 7AM is hard, but so worth it...last year's Sunday class was my favorite - THANK YOU CATHE! :-)

i did cathe's june rotation, which was excellent and had a good mix of STS workouts from Meso 1. I may do the July rotation as well and then start another STS cycle.

I did the same thing - I kept that schedule throughout meso 1, but I did find myself hungry ALL the time.....hang in there if you can - it gets better in meso 2 :-) less hunger pains

10 min miles average - not sure about that.....Average running speed is about 8 to 9 minute miles (sadly, I currently fall into this category). 7 min miles to 7.5 min miles for women is considered competitive (but not ridiculously fast). Hope your race went well!

Hi Cathe - I will be in the PM session - looking forward to it!

Hi Melanie & Bethany, Good to hear from you guys - I haven't been posting because there is no new news to report - hubby's job is crazy and he has been working 14 - 15 hour days - not exactly the best work schedule for baby dancing .... but still temping and charting and pretty much am dead...

Best of luck - you can definitely do it. My dad was a smoker for 20+ years, quit cold turkey and turned into marathon man running 5 minute miles - mind over matter! Are they really going to enforce this ban :-) holiday will be so much more enjoyable then this year :-)

Just to chime in here - Julie and Jennifer are 100% on target - plyo legs has definitely helped me increase speed, but I would do it early on in training and then taper off by end of Sept if your marathon is in Nov. From a weekly perspective, doing it early in the week prior to running sessions...
