    Strength in Numbers

    Good Saturday morning, everyone. Pam: This is actually my 3rd time through with STS. My first round started in January, 2010 and another round immediately followed. Then I did a mixture of other workouts and started up again with STS in mid-November of last year. I know I've gained a few...

    Hello, everyone. Short and to the point today. Lots to do. Did legs Wednesday, MMA Boxing yesterday and have Back & Biceps on tap this morning. Kelley gets out of school at noon today, so I'd better get moving. Weighed myself today. I've gained 2 pounds while eating clean, not missing...

    Strength in Numbers

    Cheryl: Oh, yes. I got my workout in yesterday. I did P90X+ Intervals X+. It's about 45 minutes long and got me sweating pretty good, although I kept thinking that it was not nearly as intense as Cathe's HiiT workouts. But my heart rate got up into the 160's a time or two and averaged in...

    One more thing I forgot to mention.. Has anyone spent any time with the new Workout Manager? It is very cool and seems to have everything you need in one place. I need to spend a little more time figuring a few things out, but it seems to be very thorough. Helen

    Good morning, everyone. I slept in this morning...waaaaay in! I didn't get out of bed until 8:30! :confused: It was another toss and turn kind of night for me and then the phone rang at 4:00 a.m. with the automated message from our daughter's school telling us that school was closed due to the...

    Julie, Janie, Pam: Great job on all those pushups. I think I might try to do a set to failure every day...starting tomorrow :P...I'm spent after today's C,S,T workout! Whew! :o Pam: We don't order Chinese food often. Maybe once every 3 or 4 months. And EVERY time we do, I say, "Never...

    Strength in Numbers

    Okay....so 5:00 came and went and I stayed in bed until 6:15. I didn't sleep well last night. Our son got a last minute call from a teammate of his whose flight from California was delayed due to the weather. Long story short, he was going to miss his connecting flight and had to change...

    Good morning! Pam: Yes, that's more personal information than I've shared before. Maybe some other people will be able to relate and join us. I hope your hip feels better quickly! I'm still trying to figure out all the abbreviations for Cathe's many workouts. KPC must be Kick, Punch...

    Strength in Numbers

    Good Friday morning! My thought process behind the name for this thread is this: The more people we have working together toward a common goal, the stronger we are, collectively and individually. I know that I need the support and advice from other people to reach my fitness goals and I hope...

    Lurkers Invitation For The Holidays

    Pam: I thought about a play on words with "HiiT" about an hour after I posted, but then didn't want to give the impression that this thread was all about HiiT. (I do like it, though...the play on words.) Janie: At the risk of sounding stuck up, I like "Strength in Numbers". Thanks for...

    Looks like everyone is back on track! Cheryl: Hangovers...ugh. I've had my share in my life, but thankfully, have finally learned when to say "when". Lesson learned, huh? Pam: When I first got the HiiT workouts, I thought the same as my daughter. I thought, "I can do two of these...

    1-1-11:) Just a quick check-in...HAPPY NEW YEAR! My husband and I had a wonderful night in. Our seafood menu was really good, too. My daughter and I didn't do CCC as planned on Thursday. She saw that it was 51 minutes long and picked up HiiT DWP and said, "How about this one? It's only...

    Lurkers Invitation For The Holidays

    Merry Christmas, all! We arrived home on Christmas Eve to 5" of snow after spending almost a week in the sun and sand. We get our share of snow in St. Louis, but a not so common white Christmas was the perfect way to cap off a perfect vacation. I did a few light workouts last week (not...

    Lurkers Invitation For The Holidays

    Just a quick check in... I did back to back STS workouts today. First, I did Legs (14) and then immediately did Back & Biceps (15). I felt very strong from the first set of squats. I love the tri-sets where you start at 12 reps, then do 10, then do 8 for the same exercises. It makes...

    Hello, ladies. I'm here. Feeling a little like a failure these days. I haven't done a workout since Monday, my cold is better and never really became full blown (thankfully), so I'm planning to do 2 workouts today and try to get caught up. I'm still coughing a little bit, but nothing like...
