Redoing 1RMs

[spyrosmom]

I start my 2nd round of STS on 08/03 ( 6 months this time, I did 3 the 1st time) and wasn't going to redo my 1RMs, but I decided to, just to see where things were. I got thru the 1st page tonight and am quite happy. 1 shoulder exercise went down 1 lb but my right shoulder has been bugging me. My seated overhead press and stab ball preacher curl stayed the same, but everything else went up by at least 2 lbs!!! Happy Happy Joy Joy!!! I'm hoping this trend continues for the rest of the tests, but I don't see why not. I'm also better at picking the wt to start with this go-around so there was only 1 test I had to redo by not picking heavy enough to start with. So they should go faster, too. Yay!! I can't wait for August. I don't think I've ever in my life been happy for August. August is hot and yucky and nasty, but here I am excited.

STS round 2 - Here comes Nan - look out!!!

Nan, would you care to share your results from the first time around? You said you have an icrease in weight that you can lift, but other that that... oh comeon, you know what I'm asking about...
I dont know if you needed to lose any weight, but I do, so thats what I am concerned about.
I started STS last week for the first time, I will do disc 4 today, and so far I am retaining water due to DOMS, mostly in my legs, upper body was not that bad. So I dont know..... when will it start coming down...

Hey Nan! I just wanted to stop by and say "hey"! DH and I are on our second round (3.5 again) and our 1RMs went up too! Cool isn't it? We are finished with M1 (part deux) and on to M2 next week. I am SO happy with our results. Only bad thing is that I need a new wardrobe and I don't want to spend the money right now. I guess that is what belts are for?! Later tater
