Sorry you are sick! It stinks when you are in the proper mindset to put your all into a new workout program and get sidelined right away. I hope you are feeling better soon! I wouldn't worry too much about skipping cardio, as the weights are the main focus of STS. Also, since you just...

Hi! I just started STS last week too. I am loving it so far! The pace and variety of exercises make the workouts fly by. I didn't think the workouts seemed too difficult when I was doing them, but I am experiencing a lot of DOMS, so I know my muscles are being worked hard. I did Disc 3 for...

LOL! He's a great cook too! :)

How about MIC or an IMAX?

This may sound harsh, but when I get into a slump, it helps me to think about how lucky I am to be healthy and physically able to work out! I know a young woman in her early 20's who was an amazing extreme skier and rock climber- she had no fear and was so athletically gifted. Last year, she was...

I have the Shock Cardios but don't have the STS weight workouts, so I am following the rotation and substituting P90X and Cathe's other weight workouts for the STS days. I am planning on alternating various circuit and kickbox workouts with yoga during the active rest week. I may change my...

I just wanted to add that I'm 5'5" and wear a size 2 in pants. I have had great luck ordering pants and jeans from Victoria's Secret. They offer a choice of inseam (30"-36") in many styles and often run special offers of free shipping and returns on pants so you can try them out.

Great Idea! I want to dip my toe in the water to get an idea of download times and picture/sound quality before I jump in the deep end to partake of the 50% off 40 downloads special! Jules

Hi Morningstar, I remember Cathe answering a similar question a while back. Here is a link to her reply: http://www.thecathenation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=170046&highlight=bootcamp Hope that helps! Jules

Thanks for this recipe! My 3 year old daughter and I just whipped this up and scarfed it right down-she loved it! I followed the recipe to a t except I used a small pyrex bowl and topped it off with a little Betty Crocker chocolate frosting and Mrs. Richardson's Butterscotch Caramel...

I had my first baby at 35 and just had my second at 38. The first baby took 5 months to conceive and the second took 2. I am very fortunate and had no problems with either pregnancy. I would highly recommend reading "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler. It teaches you how to...

Clarissa, I have to disagree with the marriage counseling advice. From this post and your previous posts it doesn't sound like your husband will EVER stop his abusive behavior-he won't change and likely will get worse in the future. Please take action now while your children are still...

Hi Melissa, I also had a C-Section and started working my abs about 6 weeks after my dd's birth. At first it was difficult and I was a little sore around the incision site so I just did whatever exercises felt OK. I stuck to Cathe's ab routines and modified them to what I could do. I...

Hi Amy, I asked Cathe this question a little while back. Here is a link to her reply: http://69.0.137.118/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=2&topic_id=81167&mesg_id=81167&listing_type=search HTH! Jules

Dear Cathe/SNM, I was wondering if there will be any male cast members in the upcoming STS workouts? I would love for my husband to work out with me and this system sounds like it will be great for men as well as women. It is always easier to convince hubby to work out with me when there are...

Hi Shannon, I too had a short luteal phase after being on the pill for 13 years. For 3 months I had a short luteal phase. After I started taking extra B6 and B12 vitamins every day my luteal phase lengthened from 9 days to 13 days. I conceived my daughter the 2nd month of taking the...

Hi Ladies, Just checking in to report that I've been in slugsville for a couple of weeks here. I have been pretty busy at work waiting tables and haven't had the energy to do formal workouts. I did get some walks in with the dog, at least. :-) I was in great shape before I got pregnant...

It sounds like everyone here had a pretty good week :-) Mine was good as well. I'm still struggling big-time with fatigue but my morning sickness is getting much better. I managed 4 workouts this week plus had a couple of busy nights at work so I'm pleased. I used to love to work out every...
