    Urinary sling procedure

    My mom has had this procedure done......3 times. The last one has been successful now for many years. The first two ended up failing over time because of the type of material used (it's improved lots now ;) ). I believe the first few days/week she basically rested all day and had limited...

    Grrr! Forearems--any advice?

    Thanks, guys! I'm definitely not nearly sore enough in my back and biceps for my liking--the other two workouts for the week affected me for days afterward. I have never felt my forearems so much in my life! You guys are great :) Kelly

    STS DISC CHECKI N DISC 15

    I just finished this one a half hour ago and my forearms can barely handle typing :) Definitely frustrated at my forearms. My bicep work suffered because they were so fatigued. Another thing I've noticed since starting Meso 2 is the obvious strength differences between my left and right...

    Grrr! Forearems--any advice?

    I just did Disc 15 (Meso 2 Back and Biceps--which should be called Back, Biceps and Forearms!). My forearms were so fatigued from the barbell rows that I couldn't complete all my deadlift reps, and it only got worse from there as I moved on to biceps. :mad:. Any advice? I'm frustrated that I...

    STS Users: Is STS repetitive?

    I 100% agree that it is not repetative. I've done Gym Styles rotations in the past where I lost most of my enthusiasm by the end of the second week knowing I had two more weeks of coming back to the same weight workouts and needed to mix things up to keep my motivation up. In STS, Cathe takes...

    1RM test results too heavy?

    Carol, I've only just finished Meso 1, but I noticed even in those workouts that the last third or so of the workout I have to slightly drop down my weights because my muscles are so tired. I completely agree that the 1RM tests get the true numbers, but they can skew a little heavy for an...

    HIIT vs. lower intensity -what's happening, dude?

    Okay, I'm going to attempt to explain a few things, but please be aware that I know this through researching things on my own, not through formal education! Burning fat through exercise happens in many different ways, only one of which is during the actual act of exercising. No matter what...

    Advice Needed! Going on vacation during STS rotation

    I tried searching for similar questions, but nothing was sticking out to me, so I hope this isn't too much of a repeat! Okay guys, what's the best way to work this out? I go on vacation for two weeks around July 4, right smack in the middle of my mesocycle 3. Do I put off mesocycle three...

    Need help from those who have read the Twilight series

    Chris, ReenaPP, and anyone else who loves Charlaine and vampires in general-- I haven't read every post, so I apologize if I'm repeating info here, but you have to read Kim Harrison's novels about The Hollows featuring Rachel Morgan. AWESOME. I love them just as much as the Sookie books...

    Need help from those who have read the Twilight series

    I too am a Twilight, Sookie, and Anita Blake reader. Here's the bottom line on Anita Blake--they start out great, lots of crime and action and some romance. Then they literally turn into explicit, graphic sex novels around the 6th or 7th, I think, because of something that happens in the plot...

    Target heart rate?

    Another note on fat burning % and heart rate-- Working out where you already burn a high % of fat does not make you a leaner, meaner, fat burning machine. Working out at higher heart rates, where you currently burn a lower fat %, forces your body to get more efficient at those heart rates...

    Fatal Error trying to access WM

    The WM won't load. I know the new site is supposed to be launching and figure this must be a bug--any suggestions? I need to journal my food! Sniff. Thanks for all your hard work! Kelly

    No cardio advice in the STS users guide!

    I noticed the same thing and came back looking for a thread I had seen a few days ago where Cathe mentions the STS cardio in Ask Cathe. She says the suggestions will be in the new workout manager that is supposed to launch today. I'm guessing that the rotations may have that info--I can't wait...

    Just Did STS Disc #26--Plyo Legs #1

    Whew! I am wiped! :p I just couldn't let them sit there without trying something! Think Imax 3 for legs. I burned over 500 calories in 45 minutes with this one. There are some killer new moves (sit n stands and the one-legged squat with plates) that I can't wait to see how I improve with...
