Amazing, finally starting STS 1 :)

That old saying "better late than never " is beyond appropriate for me. I have had STS 1 since it first came out but for a multitude of reasons I just never did it. Anyway really fast forward more than a decade and here I am getting ready to start it and use it as a foundation for when my STS 2 arrives. I did like a 'sample' workout this morning with disc 1 just to get a feel for the equipment that I need to have quick access to in order to not pause the workout. Felt really good to workout and I am looking forward to next Monday when I 'officially' start. I am running the Marine Corps Half in May so these next 12 weeks end exactly the week before I leave, another great reason to get it done. Wishing everyone a wonderful Monday!

You're gonna feel so accomplished! Be sure to incorporate that extended stretch or other recovery modality. Let us know how it goes ...

Stretching is one thing that I am definitely making an effort to do after every workout!!

Sample LB workout was taken care of this morning. Lordy just figuring out which DB's to have handy is enough of a mental workout but I moved things around in my She Cave and I'm good to go now. Due to the (L) knee (got scoped in November & still dealing with some swelling & discomfort) I have to make some modifications to the exercises-knee doesn't like lunges now squats right now. It's all good, more floor work for now...
Good day 2 in the books.

Did you do your 1RM's for it? That really helps with knowing the weight to use, and I always have the workout open on the workout manager and before I start I look through it so the changes are fresh in my mind. There are still times when I have to pause for a change, but not many. I do use wrist and weighted gloves a lot to get weight amounts that are different than my actual dumbbells.
