    Am i too overweight and old

    Wow - when I saw the subject line, I thought you were going to say you were in your 60's. Is 44 old? I hope not, I'm hitting it in June. I'm not going to bother to tell you to stop being silly about being too overweight and old... you know the answer to that. The only thing that holds us...

    Hey, thanks for this. I was curious about Tonique Mat, since I never heard of it, and found her site where I could download the mp4 of this workout. Just finished it up and wow - it hurt! She's super cute too with that Polish accent telling you to ignore the pain. I wasn't in the mood for...

    STS really is a good deal! I found my presale invoice

    You don't even need the book. I never used mine and don't even know where it is. I highly recommend Squat Rack and Ab Circuits, though. I use them a lot.

    What size stability ball??

    I just started using mine for an incline bench to do the back flies. Worked pretty well, because my step has me too close to the floor for this particular exercise. I also like using it for a chair when I'm playing video games. :p

    What size stability ball??

    I'm 5'0" and use a 55 cm. I think it's probably a little too big, because when I do the exercises like side-leaning tricep extensions on the ball, I can't reach the floor with my hand. Not that it matters... but I notice everyone in Cathe's crew easily reach it. But I'm happy with the...

    Some of my favorite things.....(just for fun)

    OMG - I'm just like you with the iPod. I lost mine last spring and after 3 days I realized I couldn't live without it, so I bought the 3rd generation iTouch. Then the next day, I found the 1st Gen one that I'd "lost". That one went to my BF, his Nano that I got him for Christmas went to my...

    Workout Warriors - Jan 10th - Jan 16th

    I believe that's Fantasy Impromptu that you're thinking of, which is WAY above my skill level. Had I not taken 25 years off between my 7th and 8th year of playing, I might be able to handle that one... but it's one reserved for the masters. I think there's a YouTube video of Olga Kern playing...

    Hi everyone. Today is a rest from running day, so I slept in for an extra hour, and will be doing STS Legs when I get home from work. Yipppeee. I love the leg work. Elena - welcome! Glad to have you here with us. Mary - how did STS Total Body work for you after a cycling class? Did...

    Morningstar - what do you do for a living where you can run to work? As much as I'd love to do that myself, I'd be looking pretty unprofessional when I showed up all sweaty. My BF had quite the chuckle at my expense this morning when he game into my workout room while I was running on the...

    Rounder Glutes

    Seriously? I love floor work. I always feel like it's a rest from the leg work... that is until I get started on it and remember that it's damned hard work. My personal opinion is that if Cathe makes the effort to put it into the workout, it's worth doing. She's the brains of this operation...

    Workout Warriors - Jan 10th - Jan 16th

    Morning ladies - I'm a bit zonked this morning. My BF comes over on Tuesdays after work, so he always keeps me up late and then 2 of my cats were a little overactive overnight. I ended up sleeping on the couch to get away from them, but only got about 4 hours all together. :( Regardless, I...

    STS Equipment

    I got a cheap set of adjustable dumbbells from Walmart because my heaviest set was 20#. I can add the plates to my barbell as well, since my Troy only goes up to 55# with the plates that came with it. Weighted gloves are very good for the incremental increases that you'll have with STS, and a...

    Janis - I don't know how many videos The Roots will have, but they're the "house" band on JImmy Fallon's show. That's where I found out about them. I guess they're categorized as Hip Hop, but they're so much more.

    Frustrated/Overwhelemd after two year break

    Are you feeling overwhelmed from WATCHING them or doing them? You will be surprised at how much you still can do, but if you can't keep up... big deal, it won't take you long before you can.

    Don't be embarrassed. It took me about 3 different articles before I really understood it.

    Mary - I never do smoothies either. Mostly it's because I keep breaking blenders. I believe my dog ate the rubber O Ring that goes at the bottom of the blender I have now, so if I put liquid in it, it leaks all over. The blender I had before that was broken by my ex, who dropped it on the...

    Tell me why/if I need STS

    There are only so many types of exercises you can do with dumbells and barbells, but the method that she uses is different. A month of endurance, a month of Hypotrophy and a month of strength. Honestly, I have no idea how much I paid for it because I bought it pre-ordered. But I...
