    STS DEAL OF THE DAY!!!!!

    Hello, hello :) I decided to do my 2nd week of Squat Rack. I was ready to drop them for the remainder of STS as I had mentioned. It's been 11 days since I did the first one...can you tell I just wasn't that into doing it?! But in all fairness, I had to give it one more chance. The first...

    Weightloss Challenge Thru Dec - Jul 20th Thread

    Tina, too cute about connecting the tv to treadmill. I sooo understand! I actually used my step bench as my desk! My rails are padded so they hold the bench in place. Your arms are supposed to be at a 90degree when using the computer so I added my high step riser on top of the bench and it...

    STS DEAL OF THE DAY!!!!!

    Hi guys!! I did Chest & Back at 90% today and hit all reps. I probably could have gone a lil heavier, but I can feel my chest and I did struggle with the last rep so I am happy. Today, for some reason, I really concentrated on initiating the moves with my muscle being worked and really felt...

    Hi all! Well, Melanie and Shereta are away for a few more days. So, here I am to check in with....myself?! I took a much needed two day break off from intense workouts. I've been so mentally stressed out that I became so physically exhausted. I know exercise helps with stress, but my...

    STS DEAL OF THE DAY!!!!!

    Hi guys, Took a break the last two days from intense workouts, just did some gardening instead. My low back has been bothering me probably from restarting pylo workouts and I have to admit, the heavy lifting. Like Natasha said, it does take a toll on your back especially if you have issues...

    I had commented on the Fifty Shades thread myself. I am waiting for my reserve on the book from the library. I don't usually read fiction any more. I always have like 3-4 nonfiction books going at a time though...I love to read! But with all of the hype and controversy over this particular...

    STS DEAL OF THE DAY!!!!!

    Don't feel bad we all have those "off" workout days where our energy isn't up to snuff. I am familiar with it and today just happens to be one of those days for me! I did Low Impact Challenge today from LIS. The warm-up was kickin my butt if that gives any indication of my struggle! I...

    How to start exercising again without feeling like I'm dying?! :)

    Wow. Clare and Natasha are right on!! You've got some solid advice there. I just want to add that you will come back quicker than the first time you built up your endurance with Cathe. Your body has muscle memory and once you start doing the workouts your body will respond and remember...

    Natasha, listening to your body is the best, smartest thing to do! And you are absolutely fit and strong my dear friend! You rock!! I have some of Leslie's walking DVDs too. I may have to remember about doing one if I'm not up to Cathe's level instead of choosing not to work out. I think...

    STS DEAL OF THE DAY!!!!!

    Yea, my least fav move are the 180 squat jumps too! And to boot there are 2 sets! ughh! We did the opposite for the weights tho, I did 3# first, but ended up liking the 5# as it helped my form too (it weighted me down more ;) Ok, I can handle the jumps up and off the box, but what about...
