Today was STS Week 4, Disc 10, Chest, Shoulders & Biceps. Had a good workout but for some reason it was taking me forever to set up with each exercise. I found myself pausing more and I wasn't happy about that. Oh well. I have to say, I am LOVING all the pushups in this mesocycle. I will miss them with the next two meso's.

Anyone notice that a lot of these segments are repeats from earlier Meso1 exercises? The warmups are always the same for each body part segments. LOL! And I notice repeats of what Cathe's says over and over again.
Heather - My knee has been great lately. Knock on wood.
Nice workouts everyone! Have a great Friday!!
