Cathe,
First let me thank you and congratulate you for such a great program. STS turned out all that I expeted from you and then some. The high quality of your workouts and also the logic behind the rotations are the best.
I already had started Meso 1 of the 6 months rotation when I learned I needed surgery on my thyroid. It worked out "almost" perfectly, with my last day of Meso 1 the day of the surgery. I was planning on doing the workout if the surgery was later in the day, but I had to be in the hospital in the morning PLUS I could not eat or drink anything the night before past midnight. Up to that point I missed only one day in 8 weeks! It's never happened to me before! Even though I knew I would sometime say some unkind words to you in the middle of a workout I was always looking forward to work with you. I made great strenght gains even though it's just the first cycle, my husband could not beleive the changes. I've never had shoulders and arms like that! But moreover, I was in the best shape of my life (at 53) to face surgery.
I had it yesterday and was walking out of the hospital today feeling much better than I anticipated. I attribute this to the good shape I was in THANKS TO YOU. Of course I won't be able to visit with you for a while (no heavy lifting for 3 weeks at least...) but I am looking forward to come back to STS. I think I will do a regular STS rotation, take a few weeks of active recovery and then get back into the 5 or 6 months rotation (not sure if I want to double MESO 3).
So with this Cathe I say danke und bis demnachst!
Christiane
