I just finished disc 14 about 1/2 hr ago...I barely have energy to type. I soaked in some really hot bath water (where is my epsom salts???) The hot bath helped the quivering and relax my legs a bit. I also did the extended stretch after legs. On the last round of tri-sets I wanted to quit...

I think its important to follow your own pace, I do think the rep speed is a bit fast even in meso 2. I had to slow down in the chest work (especially flyes) Cathe's rep speed was too fast for me. I"ve only had one serious training injury in my 20+ yrs of training, and I hope and pray I don't...

I lost 4 lbs and 1 inch off my waist by end of meso 1 and had not really cleaned up my diet, I just cut out the beer. Now I"m motivated to clean up my eating and see even more results by end of meso 2! I think its important though not to get hung up on scale weight, weight can change daily...

I am getting so sore this afternoon! I'm going to take some advil...by the time I leave work I probably won't be able to shift gears in my truck!

What a workout! I did not do 1RM, I just plugged in numbers from previous workouts and was suprised at the weight 1RM suggested I use on Chest,tris, and shoulders. The weight was spot on. I really like the format of this workout. 12 reps, 10 reps, then 8...when I saw the suggested weight on...

I can relate, my arms are huge (I do have high body fat) but lots of muscle underneath. My arms respond well to training. At work (we have a nice gym) I've had men make a few comments "my God Connie, where did you get those arms" "good lord you've got some big muscles"...some even wanted to...

I did only 1 cardio session during rest week....I feel kinda bad about that but I decided to spend rest week catching up on things around the house and yard (completed the yard cleanup from the ice storm in Jan) with this out of the way I can really focus on 4 weeks of meso 2 and not stress...

Meso 1 kicked my butt big time but I think its because I rarely do muscle endurance workouts. Most w/o of that type bore me to tears, and I rarely do isolation work for small muscle groups (until STS meso 1 but I loved meso 1!) I'm starting meso 2 week 1 today and don't expect to be as sore and...

I"m loving short intense cardio these days. I got CTX out this morning for the first time in ages! I love the music in this series. I had forgotten how much fun All Step is. Today I start STS week 1 of meso 2 and I"m excited!

I LOVE Nickleback! I would love to go to one of their concerts! They are my FAV

Down 4 lbs and lost 1 inch off my waist, I was suprised! I took measurments before I started week 1 of meso 1, then took measurements again after week 4. I have not cleaned up my diet all that much, each week of the 4 weeks I just cut out or cut back on the not so clean food. Beer is my biggest...

This is recovery week for me THANK GOODNESS! I feel better reading that many of you felt the last week of meso 1 is hard, I was feeling like wimp last week! It was all I could do to complete the workout. The bicep curls with the band.. oh my, I had to let the band go on the last few reps...

No complaints from me! I know pushups are a great exercise but they are so uncomfortable for me, my wrists and shoulders pinch after a while.

This is week 4 of meso 1 for me and I'm loving STS so far but this week is kicking my butt big time! I am so ready for a week off. I"ve pushed myself harder these 4 weeks that I have in ages! I haven't slept well the last couple of nights, so I"m sure thats part of the problem. I"m sore in...

Yes! I"ve increase my weight every week, this is week 4 for me and I've really struggled with CSB even though I increase wt, this week seemed to be harder for some reason. I haven't been sleeping well so I"m sure thats part of it.

I can barely walk the next day after legs, I can not imagine doing Drill Max! Hats off to those of you that can! I"m envious!

disc 9 week three last night, even my feet are sore today! My legs were shaking too bad to make it through the bonus section. I did what I could....I actually got a queasy stomach this time, myheart rate got up so high with all those lunges, I'm fighting a head cold and the hotter I got the...

I like both Amy and Cathe, but for cardio I reach for Amy more often. I prefer her choice in music. Good music in cardio is a MUST for me. As others have said there is more of a learning curve w/Amy but I don't mind. After doing Amy I find it tedious to listen to any instructor spend a lot of...

Riding my horse, camping w/family (horse lovers) and scrapbooking. On cold winter nights I like to curl up with a good book to read.

The weather is finally starting to warm up so I plan to take long walks and enjoy nature (I live in the country) and spend some time getting my horses conditioned for the riding season. I may do some yoga and easy cardio if I can't get outside.
