Hey ladies, I just received my STS series last Thursday. I'm starting it on Monday, and I'm a little nervous that I won't be able to do the exercises. I have all of Cathe DVDs and I have no trouble with any, but for some reason I think this is going to be really hard. Did anyone else feel overwhelmed at the beginning? Thanks!
 
You'll be fine!!! Once you get the first workout under your belt you will LOVE it and fear no more! I'm moving into Meso 2 tomorrow, and those are a totally different focus so the first one will be a bit scarey, but I have faith in Cathe and will get through it just like you will :)

let us know how you like it! ;)
 
Fitat49: Just do it! I'm sure you'll be fine. Meso 1 is so much fun. Be prepared to move quickly though; there is not a lot of rest between sets. I have now completed Meso 1 and Meso 2 and will be starting Meso 3 next week. It's been a blast for me.
 
I think that you will do just fine. I am now in Meso three and loving it. Meso one was a lot of fun and a lot of work.
 
I'm doing the 6-month rotation, so tomorrow is my second week of Meso 1, so I'm doing Disc 1 again, too.

You'll be fine and I guarantee you're gonna love it! For whatever reason this series has made me feel ultra-committed to getting and staying in shape!

Good Luck!:D
 
Like MS, I too just started the 6 month rotation and did Disc 1 for the second time today. If you've done your 1RMs, then definitely use the workout card to help you prepare for the quick weight changes. I check my card the night before and make sure I have all the weight increments I'm going to need, and then I review the exercises again right before the workout.

Enjoy! :)
 
Well I did it ladies!! I really liked it. I felt pretty challenged with some of the push-ups, but all in all I pushed myself to the best of my ability. Had a question about the gloves she's wearing doing the workout. Is she wearing her weighted gloves when lifting?
 
Glad you liked it! I just did it for the 2nd time today and just was amazed at how fast the time went by!
 
I believe she's wearing her weighted gloves over her weight lifting gloves.

Glad you liked the workout!

I've just finished my second week of STS and had the same concerns/fear :) that you did. Now that I'm through my second week, I'm loving it and the fear is gone, replaced with the challenge. Hopefully the same holds true for you! I noticed in one of the DVDs this week Cathe was using weighted gloves with her logo on them but I can't seem to find them on her website. Not sure if they're out of stock or this was a special set of gloves just for filming?

Take care,
Tracey
 
Tracey, The weighted gloves shes wearing Cathe does sell but they have been out of stock for awile. You can purchase them on Sports Chalet just click on fitness accessiores and it brings up a bunch of things from Cathe and other products. I think they are like $17.99. I have them and use them with kickboxing dvd's and I starting using them with the STS workouts. Lori
