Yes! This is perfect. Saturdays are my recovery day. I do a short 10-15 min. light cardio (usually a walking video) followed by a core workout. I then wrap up with a nice 20 minute stretch. On Tuesdays and Thursdays (my strength training days), I do my "hard core" work, but I've been wanting...

Thank you! I didn't realize the reason for twice a day. I put mine on in the morning, so I'm not likely to see much difference in my insomnia without the evening application. The reason I did it only once a day is that I have a LOT of allergies and reactions to meds. Like your mom, I was unable...

I received mine about a week ago, and I'd learned through my research that I needed to apply it to different places, so I've been doing that. I want to thank you for your post about it. I'm hoping it helps with the stuff that exercise and nutrition aren't dealing with. I knew I was supposed to...

Very funny! Just you wait. I have one piece of advice for your future... cotton. Cotton shirts, undies, and bedding. My husband wasn't too happy with the charge card bill when I replaced all of our bedding with cotton, but he thanked me after the first night. Cotton saved him from having to...

I made a huge difference by changing my diet. I thought I'd been eating healthy (FDA recommended diet), but I had no energy as I got older. We changed to a clean eating dietary lifestyle in order to try to help my husband's health. It worked. I ate the same way, just because there was no reason...

Maybe do Express#1 for UB1/UB2 with no bands? It looks like taking the bands out would cut about 20 min. off of UB1 and 8 min. off of UB2. That would make UB1's Express #1 about 25 min. long or Express #2 (2 sets) 33 min. long with UB2's Express #1 running around 33-34 min. long. Just a...

Thank you!!!!!!! :)

Debinmi, you're my hero! Thanks Cathe and administration too. I've been waiting and waiting for this info. Now, I'm going to be planning and planning. It will keep me busy until STS 2.0 arrives. :cool:

Patience grasshopper. lol Just kidding, I'm waiting too. I love standing abs. I feel my abs get worked out better when I'm on the mat, but I don't "wimp" out and take 2 or 3 breaks in the middle of standing abs. I think I have a problem with mat motivation. )-: I taught my son to say, "You can...

I keep checking the site to see if the times are listed. lol

I read or watched something about the importance of getting to and from the floor too. So, ever since I've made sure that I incorporate a mini practice session of sitting and rising into my days. I make sure I don't use my hands to rise from a cross-legged (pretzel style) sit, which is...

I'm going to keep checking back here to see if anybody has suggestions for the wrists, because I generally grasp weights as my modification, which won't work very well for some of these moves. I thought I'd let you know what I do for standing up too quickly though. I have neurally mediated...

Ashaw, if it were me, I'd have my husband walk the dog with me for awhile. If the guy is just friendly, it won't bother him. If the guy is wanting more, hopefully seeing your husband will send a message. I understand your husband might be angry, so I don't know what you'd have to deal with if...

I've been doing some of Cathe's extended stretches after I do a workout, followed by the foam roller move Cathe demonstrates in the trailer video that she posted (I didn't know how to do it before that). Then, throughout the day, I do a couple of standing quad stretches here and there. My knee...

Whoops! See, that's what my brain fog is doing to me. And I'm sure my thinking is soooo much clearer at this time of night or morning or whatever it is, because I can't sleep. Sorry Hazlady and Ashaw. :) I tried melatonin and it worked for awhile, but even after taking a break, it never worked...

Does anybody else check the STS 2.0 description almost daily in the hopes of finding out how long each workout is or to see if they've posted a list of the premixes? Is this normal behavior or am I obsessed? lol

Wow. I thought bleeding for so long that one became anemic was bad, but to end up with tumors caused by the treatment!? That's just scary. I'm sorry that happened to you, and I'm so glad that you're okay now. I was having issues with irritability, but I finally got that under control (well...

Yeah, I hadn't been to a doctor for a couple of decades. Mostly because they can never help me (due to the med allergies). I was desperate, so I went. Boy was it an eye opener. Things have sure changed. It's all about paperwork (not even on paper-it's a tablet) and money. It was a bit dehumanizing.

I really wish I had room for those dip bars.

Ashaw, thanks for posting about natural progesterone cream. My doctor can't give me HRT, because of my drug allergies. I asked her about natural HRT and she just said I'd be allergic to those too. She didn't even mention that anything was available over the counter. I think I'm going to do some...
