    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Sign-up for the Glassboro road trip is right around the corner. I would love to go and consider this a bucket list item! Have any of you ever attended one of Cathe's road trips? Lisa

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Hope you got that nap in crazysoccer mom! Justine - my tris react the same way. Once they are done, they're done! I completed Disc 7 today (Chest, Shoulders & Biceps). This one is packed with push-ups. I did about 1/3 of them straight legged, so that was my victory for the day. I even...

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Completed all the workouts I wanted to this week and halfway through mesocycle 1. I love when I'm able to stay on track with a rotation. I continue to make improvements on my eating. I bought some snack size candy on clearance after Halloween. Even at bite size, having 1 or 2 a day DOES add...

    STS with newer workouts rotation

    I completely understand Christine. I really wanted to do STS again, but hated to leave behind some of the newer workouts that long. I decided to bite the bullet and put my own rotation together. It's mostly STS, spinning, yoga and a metabolic workout every other week. It will be a small...

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Kudos to you crazysoccermom! See that hard work does pay off! Yes, I have my own horse. He is a quarter horse. That's him in my profile picture. I'm in PA, so don't really ride this time of year, but as soon as winter breaks, I try to ride 4-6 days a week. My husband also rides...

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Note to self, not the best idea to do STS Legs & then go skiing that evening! That was me yesterday. I managed, but my thighs were talking to me all night. Today is either spinning or UY Crosstrain & HardCore Abs. I didn't have the best week eating, due to the cake I baked. I did well on...

    Rotation suggestion?

    Do you have the LIS series? If so, look at the November 2011 rotation. I got good lower body results with this rotation. This series makes good use of the sliding discs which work those saddlebags in a great way. I'm not a huge step fan, so I subbed Low Impact Challenge with other cardio...

    Rememering my first Cathe workout

    Fun thread! I KNOW my first Cathe workouts were on VHS. I'm pretty sure it was one of the Pure Strength workouts, quickly followed by Mega Step Blast! Wow, that's taking me back quite a few years. I still have some of those VHS tapes...memorabilia :D Moreso, I remember how intimidated I...

    Can anyone recommend a moisurizing lipstick?

    Sephora carries a Josie Maran product that I like. I also like Clinque's Lip Butter and Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer. I never wear lipstick. These products give me all the color I want with the moisturizing feel I'm looking for. Lisa

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Good evening. I was on the road today for work, so I didn't get a workout in. We got a puppy 2 days before Christmas and she needed my attention. I was supposed to do spinning today, so I'll make it up over the weekend. I'd like to stay on schedule with this rotation as much as possible...

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Good evening! Didn't think you sounded that grumpy Justine. We've all been there, so completely understand. Today I did UY Cardio. All those vinyasa flows kick butt! I keep reminding myself that yoga is a practice and am determined to get better. I'll be sure to report my progress...

    Rotation Substitution Suggestions

    You've done a very good job with coming up with substitutions! Another suggestion for the weight work would be if you have the Slow & Heavy workouts. I think LBB & KPC are excellent ideas. As for Cardio Legs & Plyo Legs, they all alternate strength moves with a burst of cardio. Do you...

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    A Motivating Monday to everyone!! This week I'm starting to incorporate some of the meal plan suggestions from BFFM. For breakfast I had 2 eggs with 1 cup spinach, 1 cup of mushrooms and a whole wheat slice of toast. I couldn't even finish the entire meal as it's much more than I'm using...

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Justine - do you do any warm-up before UY Yin? I've only done it once, but felt like I would have gotten more out of it with warming up my muscles first. I may do that later today. Off to Dicks to purchase heavier dumbbells for this round of STS!! Have a great day all! Lisa

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    I finished the week by doing FlexTrain and about 30 mins on my spin bike. I have to say FlexTrain felt like a great complement to week 1 of STS! I'm getting my cardio from a mix of spinning, UY Cardio and metabolic workouts. Then on days when I have the extra time and/or energy, I'll throw...

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Justine - I'm just now getting to the nutrition part of the book. I picked up a nice wellness journal at Staples yesterday and started to document some goals. I've previously had the mindset, I workout, so I can eat/drink what I want. I'm really hoping to change that mindset to I don't...

    STS January Check In - Welcome All!

    Good morning and happy new year! This will be my second time doing a full STS rotation as well, but I opted for a 3.5 month rotation. I started on Monday, so one disc completed already. Between the Thanksgiving & Xmas, I did an STS/LIS Total Body Recharge rotation (I think Jan 2012). I did...

    Need Help with Breakfast Ideas

    I like to make a batch of steel cut oats in the crock pot. I add water, almond milk and/or juice depending on what else I'm adding to it. Some of my favs are: apples/applesauce fresh cranberries/orange juice bananas pumpkin & spices crushed pineapple/pineapple juice I'll get a...
