If you don't have it, get it! Don't mean to brag, but......I just got done doing PUB Bis, GS Bis & CTX Bis and OH MY GOSH, honest-to-goodness, I cannot believe how much stronger I am after doing 4DS for 10 weeks. (I could not pull myself away from it!) I decided I really needed to do something diff just to shake things up and what a wonderful feeling. I matched Cathe on everything EXCEPT wrist curls...she did 12's & I only did 10's as sometimes it makes my Carpel Tunnel act up...I even used those 15# BIG BABIES on PUB traditional curls & hammer curls! I just feel so accomplished especially because I did THREE workouts and kept up on all weight & just wanted to share. KUDOS to 4DS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WILL be ready for Cathe to bring it on with STS!!!!

Good for you!!!

That is an accomplishment you should DEFINITELY be proud of! I also love the 4DS. It is a fun, seemingly quick and effective WO!

Keep up the good work!
 
I am right with you on the 4DS - what an amazing collection of workouts - I have seen more changes with these workouts than I had in everything else I attempted at last year. I love them and always want to goto them first...

If you dont have it - get it - if you have it - use it!!! }(
 
Hi, Debbie--

AWESOME!!! Congratulations not only on matching Cathe, but getting such great results! That is fantastic.

You are also my hero and my inspiration: I just received 4DS and have not had a chance to try it yet-- now I can't wait to do it, and I hope I get the same great results you did!

My re-immersion into workout land is going very well. I've increased my weight on the bar from nothing (just the 5 lb. bar) to 25 lbs. now-- and I think I'm ready to go to 30 on barbell squats and dead rows/dead lifts. I even got through the Step Blast challenge the other day, something I have never been able to do before!! (Ok, so I stopped and rested between each segment, but I could never do it before even if I did stop and rest). And yesterday, I did 11 pushups! When I started 2 weeks ago, I could only do 3. AND I survived Legs and Glutes the other day! Much to be thankful for.

Thanks for all the inspiration and encouragement! I hope you continue to see great results!

:7 Cheers!

Great 4-Day Split Results!!!!

Debbie:

Thanks for sharing your great results with us! I am still loving the 4-Day Split. It is a fantastic series with the perfect balance of cardio and weights and a great variety of cardio styles. It is fun and effective! My biceps and triceps are finally getting stronger. I am excited because they are my weakest parts, and I am looking forward to STS.

I am wrapping up Week 7 of a 12-week challenge using this series. What do you suggest I use for my next challenge to prepare for STS? I am thinking that I will need to move on to different workouts for a change of pace to shock my body. I have a few ideas.

Blessings,
Heather B.

RE: Great 4-Day Split Results!!!!

Yay Deb! 4DS has been my mainstay during knee surgery recovery. I can modify the LIS portion, and do the upper body weight segments to get my daily "Cathe fix." (Oops, sorry, a drug reference)
 
Thanks everyone! Yes, it is a good feeling! Karen, glad I can inspire you. This IS the place to come for a dose of inspiration. :7

Not sure I am a hero or the STRONGEST woman alive! http://bestsmileys.com/exercising/6.gif (Too funny Allison!)

I have to admit that I amazed myself. I wasn't feeling any different while doing 4DS other then, I love the series a LOT...it wasn't til I changed up my rotation and saw the big jumps I took in weight in some exercises. (The advantage of writing everything down) Heather, I am not sure if this will work for you but I decided to give this a go....I am doing a One-Body-Part/day using PUB, GS & CTX, such as...yesterday I did all BIS from PUB/GS/CTX and today I did all TRIS from the same three workouts. I did this last summer and got great results...more definition as my body loves to hang onto fat! I only used this method for UB...it would be too long and not possible to do all 3 LB workouts unless I wanted to kill myself. Ha!

Robin, good for you for hanging in there and doing what you can do after surgery! I hope you are healing fast. AMAZING that you can do LIS, even if it IS modified! Great job!

Thanks all and keep up the good work. We NEED to be ready for STS!

Debbie, that is great. I was thinking that I needed to start a rotation with these next. When I recieved them I also recieved other workouts and never stuck with one series for a full rotation. I do like them a lot. It feels great when you have built enough strength and stamina from one workout series to make the others seem easier. Great job!! :D

Debbie, thanks for posting this. I have been going back and forth about getting this or not and your post sent me over the edge}(. I found it on the yaya swap and I should have it by next weekend. I can't wait to do the weight work.
 
Thanks everyone! Karin, I know you are going to be happy you got them. Let me know what you think!
