Hi Marymac Just wanted to let you know that I have a pair of ankle weights that are actually weight adjustable. There are small packets that are filled with beads and those fit into pouches. All the pouches together equal five pounds and to decrease the weight I just have to take out the...

I couldn't agree more with the above poster. I actually looked through all the posts to see if SNM or Cathe answered this because Ruserious kept saying that we were just trying to push a product. The OP asked for everyones opinion and that is what that poster got. I got through phase 2 of P90X...

My vote would be to invest in a barbell. I found one at Dick's Sporting Goods that included the barbell and plates that totaled 100 lbs and it was just 40 dollars. It's not an olympic sized bar but it is certainly sufficient enough for my purposes. I just have to be careful that I don't drop the...

Susan, I don't believe that SNM will be giving anyone any estimations as to what weights people should be lifting. The entire STS system is based on what weight YOU are capable of lifting for 10-8 reps safely. If you wanted to get an estimation you would need to go to a gym or something and...

Yeah! Thanks Cathe for answering my post. I am on week 2 of the 4 day split and love it! Every time I look at the blog updates I am impressed. again thanks for the hard work!! nkuangel

I was wondering the same thing especially after seeing the most recent photos I would love to know what weight they are using for the rows. Having said that I don't think that they will be telling us their weight selections because this system is so individualized. I think if you wanted to get...

I have just started to become a coffee drinker when last semester I had a Psychiatric Nursing class at 8 am in the morning and since then it just tastes good. What kind of creamer are you using, I use half and half and use splenda to sweeten it instead of sugar which if you are drinking that...

Cathe and SNM, I just wanted to extend my sincerest gratitude for all the hard work that you put into each workout that you produce. I am so pumped about STS because I have recently been working with P90X and found that the 6 day per week commitment was unrealistic so this program is ideal...

sure no problem although I don't think it was what you wanted to hear :-) . Here is another thing you could think about, if you didn't want to spend even an hour doing cardio you could always do the cardio only options with bootcamp which are very intense and pretty short. I think if you did the...

A rest period is so vital to your muscles because during this time they not only are resting but they are building and repairing themselves. When you are doing weights everyday like you are describing above it can become counterproductive and you may not see the same results you would if you had...

I am not really sure that you could get the kind of results that Cathe is talking about with her other workouts. A lot of it has to do with the tempo at which you are working which will effect the amount of weight you are able to safely lift. Most of her workouts are focused on muscle...

My fiance and I are in the process of buying our first house. We are getting married on June 14th. We are honeymooning in Cancun for a whole entire week all inclusive. And due to the recent blog updates I pre ordered STS. nkuangel

The only similarities that I see are that it is heavy weight work and they both are based on the periodization method other than that I think they will be completely different. For one Cathe will actually be fun and not have the total dread factor that I have come to know so well with P90X. I...

Jerry, I haven't been around this board for very long but I do always notice your postings because they bring humor and wisdom to the discussion. I am so sorry to hear of your tragic loss of your brother and will certainly be sending prayers towards your other brother. While I can't imagine...

Victoria32, I read your question and just wanted to tell you that there is not going to be any cardio filmed for this series. The cardio Cathe is referring to is what SNM is going to recommend we do along with STS. A lot of people have had a problem with this but personally I couldn't imagine...

Thanks everyone, We won't officially close on the house till February 22nd. After that we are going to start moving in furniture and getting the house set up. I still kinda can't believe it because we only put in our offer Sunday. I don't know how I will be able to take all of this...

My fiance and I bought our first house this morning. It is everything we wanted in a house, doesn't need to be updated because it was just renovated. It's in an established quiet neighborhood and it is beautiful!! We have been looking for about a year now and our wedding is June 14th of this...

I am jealous!! I would love to order these, and Amy Bento, and STS but while my heart says Go for it! My brain is saying And where will all this money be coming from?! Oh well as long as I get STS and at least Amy Bento's kickboxing I will be very happy. nkuangel

Hello guys, I have recently come to appreciate Amy Bento's style and personality and enjoy her kickboxing. I was confused when I looked at her website for her presale. The kickboxing in the ring workout is an all kickbox workout right? The other workout I was really confused on. What is the...
