    Hey guys- 4DS Lower Intensity Step this morning again at 4:30. Still hard to get my heart rate up that early. I skipped the calf work because my calfs were bothering me last week - and they are actually the easiest muscle in my body to work. Maybe because step is my favorite. Ben

    Hey guys- First day back for us teachers in MN. It's going to be a crazy year - I've got stuff in the evening at least once a week, my wife is going back to add on to her master's degree, which will be another night per week, and of course our two kids. So, that means morning workouts again...

    Hey guys- I did the full BM2 workout, even adding in the bonus cardio before the power sections. It went well, except after the last power step section - I had to lay down on the floor for a couple minutes. (This used to happen more when I started with Cathe... hastn't happend for a few...

    Step Top Replacement?

    I actually just ordered it about 45 seconds after I posted my thank you. I tried to search the other day, but no luck. Is it wrong that I'm excited that it will be the same color that Cathe uses on her videos? Have to admit I'm excited about that... Ben

    Hey guys- I spent an hour and a half on the tredmill. I thought I'd jog most of the time, but my knees didn't want that. So it was about 1/4 jogging, 3/4 walking on incline. Which was okay. I think I'm going to do BM2 tomorrow or the next day. Have a great weekend! Ben

    Step Top Replacement?

    I looked, but as far as I can see it's just the high step top. There's all that other new stuff to get, though. I'm trying to hold back a bit - it would be nice to get the credit card down a bit before getting more stuff :) Ben

    Step Top Replacement?

    Has anyone ever purchased just the top of the original step? I got mine back in '92 or '93. When Cher had her step video:) There are cracks in the plastic underneath, and it makes a popping noise sometimes. It works perfectly fine, but it's just annoying. I just got the high step bundle, so...

    Hey guys- Low Impact Circuit today after two days off. I even did the extra cardio section. Time sure flies on this one. It feels like 45 minutes, but it was 80 minutes. Next week I'm starting a 4DS rotation and I'm really looking forward to it. Hope everyone is doing well. Ben

    Hey guys- Pulled out an older one today, Maximum Intensity Strength. I couldn't remember if I'd done it or not, and frankly, I'm still not sure. It was a good workout, but maybe not one I'll do again in a while. I think I'll take a day or two off, just to make sure my calf muscle is okay...

    Hey Guys- Imax 3 today. 1st time in a while I did it start to finish - man, it's still a tough workout. My heart rate monitor said 88% for a while, which was the highest I've ever seen it. I think I pulled/twisted something in my right calf. I think it might need a day or two off. We'll...

    Hey guys- Extra time today, so I did GS Back/Shoulders/Bi along with a 4 mile run. I did 1.33 miles before each body part. Even though this took an hour and 45 minutes (including some 1RMes) the time went quite fast. Ben

    1RM "Completed" Question

    What I've been doing lately is to pretend to schedule an STS workout, then look at one of the discs. In this list, there are different colors that show what 1RM I have done, and I look at the exercises that I have left to do. There are still some exercises that I don't know what they are, but...

    Hey guys- I did Step Fit today (I think it was that one, I forget now. It's the second one. She's wearing a big "MODA" shirt:) ) And I did three 1RM tests. I figured I better get back into doing those again. My chest is super sore from GS chest/tri yesterday, and I can't even do all the...

    Hey guys- Did GS Chest/Tri today along with a 4 mile jog. Was going to do some more 1RM, but haven't for a week or so. Oh, well. Ben

    Hey guys- Power max for me today. It'll be the second time through the cardio hits dvd this week. Tim, I so agree. I think 3 is the hardest, then 1, then 2. I think 2 is the most fun (maybe because it's the most doable).:) Ben

    MIS?

    I think I forgot to do this workout when I got it a year ago. Does anyone still use MIS? I have been doing some circuit workouts lately, and thought I might use MIS with some jogging thrown in here and there. I haven't used it yet because I enjoy Cathe's weights so much with her newer...

    Hey guys- Gym style Legs along with a 2 mile jog. Literally dripping from head to toe. My 18 month old son was watching me warm up and trying to follow along. If only I could have had that on video. Chris, sounds like you had a fabulous time. Good for you! And a good workout choice to...
