For sure! The number of people wanting low impact is sure to grow as we all get older ;=))

My wish too Lisa. It is great not to have to modify the ones from the Low Impact Series. Doing those has given me ideas how to do modification on high impact ones that I had never thought of. I would recommend the Low Impact series if you have not tried it Lisa.

I had similar experience exercise-lover. My days of doing high-impact are past and I found Cross Fire easy to modify. Probably everytime I will do it, I will modify differently. When I didn't feel I was keeping my heart rate up, I used either my step, vest or hand weights, or used a...

People on this forum are great enablers ;=)) I am about half way through STS for the 1st time. I love it! It is a great program. It is a nice reward when I went to help move a heavy door (that I have helped with before) and it felt much lighter. That was couple weeks ago, only about 4 weeks...

Colorado mountains-they came today! Hard to choose which one for a workout tomorrow.

Thanks Czechfan for doing this for both DVDs! It is very helpful. Hopefully I will get my DVDs tomorrow.

Thanks for the prayers and all the good thoughts sent this way. It is a very scary situation. Its the worst possible conditions for fires: very dry, high temperatures and wind. At least we have had some rain in parts of the state in the past 2 days. Hope you got some in Colo Spgs. I am in a...

I would love to have a kettlebell (or a whole series!!!) workout(s) by her.

Hi Everyone! Sorry I have done a disappearing act. Last week I traveled to my uncle's funeral. A couple other people in my immediate family are also very ill and I needed this week to just decompress. I have kept doing STS (#9 Saturday) and some of the new cardio DVDs I recently rec'd from...

Hi Gina--Glad you joined in, great to hear your experiences and have your encouragement. It has been years since I have done heavy lifting (back in the days when I was gym rat), and recently have only been endurance lifting also. So the first week of Sts was a shock, but I am enjoying this...

Some neighbors/friends and I are going on a long hike tomorrow. It does feel like a reward. I did Disk 4 today, as later in the week, I have a conflict and probably won't get much of a workout in. So to get the 3 workouts in this week, I will do STS workouts on Tuesday & Thursday. It felt...

Brandie--Thanks for sending the link. I found your article about creating a Meso 4 helpful. I am working on setting up a Ab Meso and your article gave me some good ideas. I would like to get a copy of your excel worksheet. I would be glad to send you a copy of the Ab Meso when it is...

atompki--I have both wrist weights: .5 & 1# and adjustable sets and also have .5 & 1# gloves. I like the wrist weights more than the hand weights as I notice them less when wearing and the glove weights sometimes bother my thumbs. I have had trouble with tigger thumbs and don't want to...

Hi atompki & Nancy--Glad you keep popping in to viist! I got the Valor BD-3. Like Dawn, it took me a little time to figure out how all the pieces went together. The 2nd one I put together in just a few minutes. In some of the reviews I read, people mentioned using this rack for chin-ups...

Dawn-Did you get your rack? Mine came yesterday and I just put it together today. Seems well designed. A couple of the features I didn't realize until I watch their youtube, available through their website. I am looking forward to using it tomorrow for legs. Hope your back is feeling better.

Hi Nancy--Thanks also for checking in with us. I am enjoying doing these workout. They hurt so good! I think I have said this before, but I have never pushed it much with upper body workouts, so this is great. I was tired after Disk 2 yesterday and was not sorry that it was raining outside...

I had the same thoughts as you do Tami and did go ahead and preorder. Took advantage also of getting 30% off on 2 of the DVDs that were on special for today (I wanted them anyway). So made for some great deals! I will just sub in other moves for the high impact also.

Brandi--I love your idea of adapting STS to other exercises! The progressive increase in weights is like having a trainer push you ever day to do more, but in small enough increases that you don't get hurt and hopefully not so sore and tired that don't want to do anything for the rest of the...

Well have to be honest, I have not done the 1RM for legs, yet. At least I will do the ones for Disk 3 and can finish the rest up Sunday. I recently got Cathe's Cardio Supersets (part of the Low Impact Series), which is nice blend of exercises & cardio. I will do a premix of about 30 minutes...

Thanks Melissa! They look yummy and good for ya. Pam
