    STS Check In DISC 3...LEGS

    P. S. I take these workouts with me to the gym. I have to walk up 2 flights of stairs to exit the gym. Just though I would mention that. It was like a super bonus at the end of this workout. There is an elevator, but I proudly hobbled up the stairs anyway.

    STS Check In DISC 3...LEGS

    Haha Yes, pain would be the word I use to describe my current state. What a challenge! I had wanted to go through the whole workout without extended breaks, alas, that was not meant to be. I had to take a few extended breaks. My heart was racing like crazy. I felt great afterward, but I...

    Hairloss

    Very interesting... I also have excess hair on my chin!!! I use a dipilatory to get rid of it, but it is blond, thick, and longish. The front part is whre the balding is the worse. It is not completely gone. But I would estimate it is now at a 30% loss from full growth. The more I read about...

    Hairloss

    Thanks Laura -I am going to look into your suggestions as well. It is scary!!! There are no magic pills or easy solutions for this issue. I read that Rogaine is only helpful to about 25% of women. There are some prescriptions out there - can't remember the names - that could help as well. They...

    Hairloss

    Hi, I noticed the hairloss started a few years ago. At first, I didn't want to believe it, but it really accelerated the past 18 months. I was not on any medication until last month. I will definitely bring that up with the doctor to see if the medicine is accelerating it even more. Thank...

    STS CHECK IN DISC 2

    Disc 2 done today I am a day or two behind. I did disc 2 today. It was a nice workout. The pullups and chinups were a killer. I had to do them using a Smith Machine bar and my knees bent. I reduced the weight on some of my exercises. I definitely worked to the max and it was great to challenge...

    They're your friends!!! lol just kidding. There is a constant microscopic battle on and in our bodies. It would be very traumatic if we could actually see it daily. But those little guys keep everything in balance. It is strange, but necessary. I just try not to think of the one show I...

    STS CHECK IN....DISC ONE

    Phew! I took my w/o card and notes to the gym this morning. I previewed the disc already so I knew what to do. It was a good workout! 1. The push ups in the beginning - I did the first set on my toes. Then I started the second set, but only did 4 on my toes - the other 4 were on my knees. I...

    Kind of scared

    {{{HUGS}}} I hope everything is ok! Perhaps you are just in super shape and the test is not reflecting that? Good luck with everything and do let us know how everything goes.

    Push Ups - Straight Leg or Bent Knee

    It starts with one. Hi, I was not able to do push ups on the toes either for the longest time. So I tried to do 1 rep on my toes and then drop to my knees. I increased that to 2 and so one. Now I can do about 25 before I have to stop for a break. My record is 72 in drop set format - I...

    Why in the world did I use Hydroxycut?!?

    I used it 5 years ago And it did not work for me either. I was a size 4 back then so I don't even know what I was thinking. My weight increased too. The products should not be on the market. They are dangerous.

    How long to complete all the one rep max tests?

    a coulple of days I have been working on this for about two weeks. However, I am taking plenty of rest time in between these "workouts" so I am well rested for the best results. There is no way I could do it in one day. The longest I spent on one section was about 1.5 hours. I was wiped out...
