    Rosetta Stone

    The best! I learned German while on assignment in Luxembourg with the Berlitz method. But when we came back and I wanted to pursue by myself, I found the Berlitz method to be hard to follow without a teacher. The Rosetta Stone method is great to learn by yoursel as it comprises of all the...

    What did you do AFTER STS ?

    I did a couple of 4DS rotations and a few also of Cathe's montly rotations. But I am back at STS and doing my own mix, based on the same formula as P90X; M,W,F strenght and ABS, TUES. cardio, THUR. cardio and Yoga, SAT. cardio and SUN stretch. However I am doing a double undulating rotation...

    Has anyone done STS without doing the 1RM?

    Another way of doing the 1RM w/o really doing it is the following. I am sure you can determine the approximate weight you can lift for 15 reps (most of meso 1), having a hard time finishing the last 3 reps. You should be able to judge that if you've been doing Cathe for a while. If you were...

    awww i tried to hard to like her

    One more vote to "stick" with it I agree with most of the posters. I am in line for BM2 tomorrow, so talk about dread... BUT, as Debby and the others said so eloquently, there should be no shame to modify, pause and adapt to YOU. I started getting fit "late" in life. I discovered Cathe in my...

    SNM: Barbell length question and the PT

    It's a question I've been meaning to ask for a while as my DH is also interested in the tower. However I have the original Firm BB from way back, BUT I love it because it's padded all along the bar. It's 31-7/8 from collar to collar but I was thinking of adding washers to both ends to take the...

    Who's Kicking Your Patoot Today?

    For me it was GS chest and triceps...YES those 72 push-ups!!!! followed by HIIT 30/30. I am following Cathe's march rotation and it's kicking my butt so far. I am adding also some fast walk/run combo's. I'm not a runner but would like to add this to my routine. It's so nice here in Montreal I...

    Hi Everyone!

    WHAT DRAMA I can't beleive all the drama and criticism over such a trivial detail, 2-3 minutes of cool-down. Cathe I can say this...Last June I was diagnosed with thyroid cancer...yes I know it's the "cadillac" of cancers, but it's cancer nonetheless. YOUR workouts are what kept me strong...

    Printing the calendar from the Workout Manager

    OUPS!!! I am so sorry as well. But before I KNOW I could print from the calendar page not through the workout manager but by going to print from my task bar. I'll try. Again my apologies>

    Printing the calendar from the Workout Manager

    I asked that question 3 times so far, and never had a reply from SNM. I am now printing my own calendars from Publisher, but it's NOT the same. I loved seeing the icons, it was so easy and also motivating. I sincerely hope SNM will answer. If they are working on the situation, I'd appreciate...

    Printing calendar from wo manager

    Joan, I've asked this question twice so far and never got an answer. I am wondering if we can't print the calendar anymore in order to perhaps buy Cathe's calendar?

    Veins in my arms...

    Here is an answer from Oxygen magazine (Dec 09); "What you are experiencing is normal for an individual with a low body fat percentage. When your body-fat falls below a certain level, your veins will become more prominent. The pattern of the subcutaneous veins is largely genetic. By increasing...

    SNM- Printing calendar

    SNM, This question was asked a few weeks ago but never answered. Are we going to be able to print the calendar in the format we used to before, meaning print just the month with the workouts icons as we download them from rotations. I just checked and it's still only little dots instead of the...

    Printing from the workout manager

    I use to be able to print my monthly calendar page from the workout manager. I would simply fit the content of the whole month to a page (therefore cutting the side bar and the bottom of the window) and I also had the icons for each day. My October calendar is ready with all my workouts but I...

    Question about Needle Biopsy for Thyroid

    Another opinion Clarissa, Like other posters that responded, the procedure is not that bad. It is slightly uncomfortable but not painful, especially if you have a skillfull surgeon. Last October during my routine medical the doctor found 3 nodules. I was sent for a biopsy and as I say it was...

    Question about a Non-Cathe DVD (which I haven't bought in a looooong time)

    Another YES for P90X I have both P90X and P90X+. I had to stop my STS after 8 weeks of M1 as I had surgery on my thyroid. Although I felt fine the day after I came out of the hospital I need to give my scar time to heal. So I've only done some cardio so far. After seeing my doctor next week...
