    Joan, I feel so bad for you having to wait until Monday to get STS! That usually happens to me! It is so frustrating when you cannot do anything about it! Look on the bright side, at least you have all your 1rm done so you are ready to go! I hope Cathe has the cardio suggestions up soon. I...

    Good evening everyone!!! I've been watching the STS DVD's since I got them, are they GREAT or what?!! I am a little disappointed that the guide book didn't go into cardio options to use in the rotations, I thought Cathe said it would have suggestions for every cycle. Anyway, I couldn't...

    Hi Everyone! Hope you all had a good weekend! I've been busy getting my workout room ready for STS. I got some bigger mirrors and did some rearranging so DH can do it with me and we aren't always running into each other. This will be so fun!!! We still haven't done any 1rm testing yet...

    Jann, where did you have your resting and active metabolic rate tested? I am really surprised by the 115 bpm burning the most calories, I always think I should average about 125 for cardio (75% of mhr). Bev

    Hi All Magnolia, I'm really a sucker for DVD's! Last week I got a Bun's of Steel and the 2 Results DVD's, the week before Denise's Daily Dozen. Like I really need more workouts! I don't think I could do all the workouts I have if I live to be 150 and continued to use them every day! Joan, I...

    Good Evening All! Wow, Joan, 5 miles!!! 135 min--that is 2 hours 15 min?!! A couple of questions about 1 rep max testing: how long did you rest between exercises and did you do 1 body part only at a time, or alternate between body parts? Jann, I just love CLX!!! I do BI tomorrow. What...

    Good Morning! No, I'm not up for the day--I just couldn't sleep. Thursday was a rest day by accident, I couldn't get up. I just can't win! Joan, did you have any smoke damage? I bet it took a long time to get the smoke smell out! It's been really cold here in MN, too. Wish I could go south...

    Good afternoon! Today is a rest day. I was going to do an ab workout, or recharge, but I really feel like I need a rest day (good feeling). Magnolia, balance is an issue for me too. I think it has something to do with age. Tina, I hope you are back to feeling good! Joan, I can't...

    Hi All Magnolia, I woke up with a sore back too, don't know what I did, but it's okay now. I did CLX BC3, and the first 12 min of BC1 because it took me that long to figure out I was doing the wrong workout!!! I have to go easy on shoulders too. Jann, I thought I worked pretty hard doing...

    Hi everyone!!! Hope you are all having a great weekend!!! It took me about an hour to figure out how to put my avator up!!! I thought it wasn't working, but it was. I couldn't find a very good picture (I had to crop one from a group pic), but this will do until I get a better one...

    Hi Everyone!!! Did you see this latest update--http://www.thecathenation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=256701 ? I can't wait for the new workout manager. Jann, I may have to do the STS rotation with Cathe!!! It won't be for a while though, since she will probably wait until everyone has their...

    Jann, I did Burn Circuit 1 and could have gone way heavier too. I wasn't sure because of the leg work how much weight I could use and keep my balance! Next time I'll go heavier. I don't mind the timer, but I don't like it that she doesn't count the reps! Magnolia, CLX is Beach Body's...

    Jann, I'm so happy you finally got CLX! I'll do BC1 today (first time) and Christi tomorrow!!! I'm so excited to get started! I have done both the cardio's, they are harder than I expected, but you get out of them what you put in to them--you can modify a lot or a little. Bev

    Hi Joan, Tina, Magnolia, Jann and Pauline! Welcome Pauline! I used to just love Step Heaven, but I don't think I've done it for a couple of years or so! I might have to do that for Thursday's workout. Christi's DVD's are so much fun, they just make you smile! So Jann, are you ever going...
