    STS first time!

    Hello, ladies! I haven't checked in on this thread for ages, or spent much time in the forums. I am still exercising with Cathe. I've been doing LIS this past month and have been enjoying it. I never finished meso 3 and don't have any plans to re-visit STS soon. Wishing the best for all...

    Cathe's Race Across America

    That's fantastic, Bonnie! I don't remember the exact miles that I've logged from day to day, but I do remember where I am on the map. That's why I'm a little disappointed that I have to tread over the same ground again. Oh well, I'll still make it to the end eventually!

    Cathe's Race Across America

    I enjoy checking my progress in the Race Across America. I was a little miffed when "mileage" got subtracted from my total instead of added. Has anyone else had this problem or am I the only one looking at it now?

    STS first time!

    Helloooooooooo! Sorry I've been MIA for so long. I've been lurking but not posting. I had my rest week and then ended up taking another week off. I've been having some issues with my shoulders and/or carpal tunnel. I think I'm going to have to go to a specialist and get it evaluated...

    Well, I just finished disk 23 and tried to muster up the willpower to do the extended stretch. I did about 2 minutes and then fizzled out. Maybe I should try doing a segment of stretch max instead. However, right now I'm just going to dissolve into a pool of sweat! :eek::eek:

    Missy, it is so funny that I just read about you avoiding buying Robin's Eggs. They're my favorite Easter candy, too. I was also a brave girl today and didn't buy any. Hoorah for us! Carolyn, I'm not the one to ask about dieting since I am overweight. IMO, I think you could eat more...

    STS first time!

    Just a quickie! ;) I cannot believe that I only have 2 workouts left in meso 2. I was hoping that somehow, miraculously, I would not suck at pushups in disk 22....sigh...won't stop me from trying. Carolyn, aren't all young girls devil girls?? We probably were too, but won't admit it. :p...

    Stay safe, missy! I was born and raised in Kansas, so I know what you are going through. I'm glad that others had problems with trying to move around rotation workouts into the next month in workout manager. When I tried to move disk 20 into March, I somehow deleted it altogether, so my STS...

    STS first time!

    Just a quick check in! I've been a lazy cuss this week and didn't workout until today. I did legs first and then followed with chest, shoulders, triceps. They did go together fairly well. I was pooped, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. TTYL! Linda ETA: Hey! I work this...

    Carolyn, I think that I will be going the opposite way and use the squat rack. I hope that seeing plyo legs has fired you up for meso 3. You're almost done; only 1 more measley month! I can't say that I'm afraid of flying, but I consider it a neccesary evil. I would spend all of my vacation...

    STS first time!

    Missy, the trouble with my treadmill wasn't the results, it was the treadmill itself. It developed a weird electrical problem. We had someone come out and fix it. Two days later, the problem came back. We called the repair person multiple times, but we could never get a "live" person so we...

    STS first time!

    Just checking in! I had a nice long post going, but then when I was toggling back and forth to re-read posts, I wiped out all of my hard work. :mad: So, I'll try again, but it is going to be shorter (I think). Jean: So glad that you will be spared the nor'easter. I remember them and don't...

    STS first time!

    Good evening, ladies! I have Bowflex dumbells that go up to up to 52.5 lbs. Won't be going that high anytime soon. LOL. I think that the highest I've used is 25 lbs. They make switching weights a little slower, but I don't have to use weighted gloves to get smaller increases, which is...

    STS first time!

    Hello everybody! I lurked during my rest week but didn't post much. Had to really talk myself into doing disk 13 tonight. So glad that I did. I like this type of workout better. Most of my weights were about right. However, I saw Cathe pick up a barbell for the flat bench tricep...

    Did you flash a bulging bicep at him/her and intimidate them?? ;)

    STS first time!

    Hello ladies! Just a quick check in. I finished Meso 1 on Saturday and have my active rest week this week. I'm really excited to start Meso 2. :cool: Betty: I hear you on the fatigue and leaving weights strewn all over the place. Unfortunately, when I did that, my hubby didn't notice...

    STS first time!

    Just a quick check-in! I had no energy today for disk 10. :( Had to lower some weights or drop some reps. I'll also be glad to be done with all of the pushups!

    I just finished disk 9. Still not my favorite leg workout, but I'm liking it a bit better. Carolyn, I found that stevia varies greatly between brands and how it is prepared. The leaves have a licorice taste, so if you have a less processed brand, it will have an aftertaste. The liquid...

    Jean: Yeah, I've given up the idea of having a perfect house 'cause of the kitties. It seems that they each like to destroy something different, so it's hard to keep up...sigh... I hate to run, but do enjoy walking/hiking. Most of my cardio does come from dvds. I just need to start doing it...
