IS anyone else doing this??
I do alot of walking for cardio and i have been doing 3 disks then a day off with cardio..Abs every other day in from one or another dvd..

I am making alot of strength gains??
Think i am hindering my progress. I can definitely see a change in my muscles..

So then are you going through an entire mesocycle in 2 weeks? That seems a bit fast to me. I did fast-track STS, but not as much. I squeezed in each mesocycle in 3.5 weeks, and then took the other half-week as my active recovery. So I was able to do the 3-month rotation (normally 15 weeks) in 12. But I still had 5-6 days of rest between workouts for any particular muscle group. I think Cathe says that the rests are really important for your muscles to rebuild and recover. So although you are seeing results, you may not be getting the absolute maximum out of the program that you could be.

I suppose it depends on the person. I tried doing 4 STS dvds per week and wore myself out.
