    SNM - When will weighted vest be back in stock?

    I knew I should have ordered it from Walmart.com when it was in stock. It was sitting in my cart for a month ... Guess I'll wait for them to be back in stock since Walmart is the cheapest and they have free site-to-store shipping. I probably won't need it for Meso 1 anyway since my endurance...

    SNM - When will weighted vest be back in stock?

    Alas, I waited too long to order my weighted vest and see it is no longer on your website or Walmart.com. Do you plan on stocking up on these again anytime soon? Thanks!

    how long to do all 1rm?

    So far I've done 4 (approx. 75-90 min) sessions and I've got all my upper body 4 and 5 star and some 3, 2 and 1 stars done. I've done some leg 1RM testing, but think I might "wing it" with legs. I did Chest/Back one day, Bis/Tris a few days later, Shoulders and just did more Shoulders and Bis...

    Cathe Stability Ball?

    My recollection is that the Firm ball is burst resistant. I have one and that's the one I'm going to use for STS

    Maybe start doing them without weights until you get the hang of it?

    chin up / squat rack from cathe products

    That's Cathe's power tower and it isn't available yet. Also, it is NOT made to be used as a squat rack and could be very dangerous to use it in that manner.

    Meso 1, Wk 1 LEGS

    EXACTLY!!! I didn't see this post before my answer. Thanks for explaining it - yes, go out further than you think you should. I think this hits alot more quads too!

    Meso 1, Wk 1 LEGS

    No - toes are straight ahead. I think Cathe mentions it - that your not standing with your hips above your feet toes. When you are situated on the ball - walk you feet out a bit so your toes are maybe 10-12" in front of your hips. Not sure how to explain it any better than that. Check the...

    Meso 1, Wk 1 LEGS

    I tested for the wall squats today and the key to them is to make sure you feet are out in a hack squat position in order to keep your knees from riding over your toes. My glutes/hams are really strong so I didn't really have trouble getting out of the "hole" - I used to powerlift and squat so...

    STS -active recovery week?

    You won't lose any muscle in just a week - and your body will need time to recover. It's always tough for me to take a week off of lifting, but I find myself coming back stronger when I do.

    Meso 1, Wk 1 LEGS

    OMG! I decided this morning to do some 1RM testing for legs, just to get an idea of what I should use for weight and I'm so obsessed with doing STS perfectly that I re-thought my original idea of doing 1RM for legs. WELL WELL WELL - I did the warmup from M1, W1 and then started doing the...

    3 or 6 month rotation question for Cathe/SNM?

    I'm not too worried about my shoulder actually. I decide to do the 1RM testing for shoulders yesterday and it held up pretty well - some DOMS today but not from the injury/surgery so that is good. I really wish Cathe or SNM would answer the question about the benefits of 6 vs. 3 month...

    I agree- Cathe has the most amazing ABS and I wish she showed them more in STS - it gives me motiviation!

    1RM Test - So Easy a Caveman can do it

    I agree that it would be easier if the exercise number appeared in the drop down menu - but I've noticed in doing my 1RM that the exercises are pretty much listed in the order they appear on the DVDs.

    The mat Cathe uses on her "bench"

    Someone did ask this and Cathe said they will not be available for a little while. I will try to find the link to that posting and figure out how to cut and paste it.

    I couldn't finish Legs in STS!

    Janie - I would not do legs AGAIN tomorrow. Give it a couple of days. I bet the next time you do it you will do better. I fully expect that I will not make it all the way through the leg workout the first time - or will have to pause to catch my breath - endurance-type weight training is my...
