I will definately be preordering - but will have to wait a bit and save for the preorder. SOOOOO excited!

Yippee! Jumping up and down - in Canada! Cathe you're the best!

I haven't officially started Meso2 yet but I snuck in disc 14 as my last leg workout before active recovery (because I couldn't wait and I love'hate leg workouts) I didn't find it that hard during the workout - BUTTTTT (pun intended) was walking funny for at least three days after. Haven't...

Thanks M&M I was wondering if anyone else had done it during recovery week. I might just do it now!

Joining in for Meso cycle 2! Hi Everyone - I had started Meso cycle 1 before this check-in and repeated week 4 to time my recovery week with March Break - so I am now in sync with this check in. I have enjoyed just doing cardio for the last couple of days - but I am missing my strength...

I apologize in advance if this has been asked already - would Drill Max be too much for the active recovery week?

Totally agree! It really annoys me when people have such "heroic" attitudes about coming into work sick. I am not impressed by people who assume that it is a weakness to take a day off work to get better - or frown on others for doing so. There is more to life than work- and getting better...

I love this thread almost as much as DOMS - it's funny to read how many people love (good) pain! I hate the mushy, sluggish feeling in my limbs that means I need to workout and get that pumped feeling....ahhh and then the DOMS!

I agree with Maggie!

Also shamefully addicted this season - my bets are on Melissa - he just seems all dreamy eyed around her. The promos for this last episode have me thinking there might be a twist ending...how sad if he chooses Deanna and that he never really got over her. Can she really love him - after the...

I kept a food diary for a summer and got a real feel for how much I am eating as well as the approximate calories per serving for the foods I usually eat. I haven't kept track in a while and have managed to maintain and lose when necessary. Keeping track for that period of time really helped...

I added plyo-legs workout for a cardio-leg day with great results!

My legs feel more toned (butt especially) and my thighs are slimmer - this is a biggie for me (no pun intended) since this is a problem area for me. The workouts felt hard - not as much of a burn - but legs are tired and heavy the next day. Different workouts really are key to making changes...

Not to be repetative but I read somewhere that chocolate milk has the perfect ratio of protein to carbs for a post-workout snack. I have had this and added some additional protein after a heavy weight workout day. It is a delicious reward!

I would love Steady State Step and a HIIT workout series. A little of both for variety and fun! Cathe would make a "wicked" HIIT workout!

Hmmmm...I do have some yoga tapes hanging around. And I love LIS from 4DS which gets the blood going without too much strain. Reading everyone's input I will make the most of the recovery week and savour the energy gained by it. It is always great to read everyone's experiences and advice!

I don't like taking a week off - I am guilty of sometimes missing my weekly rest day. I just feel sluggish if I don't move my body in some shape or form. We are supposed to take a week off for STS and I am dreading it - I don't know if I will be able to hold back for a week. I don't rest...

My vote is for weights and plates, then no weights and then those darn stability ball ones! I didn't feel the ball one as much because I couldn't actually coordinate some of the moves to really feel it enough. What does everyone else think?

I had posted a thread a few days ago about how much harder disc 7 felt! Then along came disc 10 - I have prided myself in being able to do on my toes push-ups for all of the GS chest and tris workout...I was on my knees by the end of disc 10! The hardest still are the front shoulder presses...

I confess that I found disc #1 to be a good workout - but not too hard. Well I believe the periodization is kicking in! Disc 4 is definately harder! The biceps (barbell with band) exercise was killer. I had to change my barbell twice (lower) to be able to finish. Anyone else find those...
