Before I got STS, I was impressed with the online tools available to us (Workout Manager, Nutrition Manager), but when you consider the online tools together with the amazing package that is STS, we've probably got the most cutting-edge fitness package available anywhere. This beats gym memberships and any other options, DVD-based or otherwise.
This is such a well-thought-out program, and every detail is covered, including the personalities of the upbeat group of exercisers on each DVD, and of course, Cathe's constant stream of encouragement, and form and modification reminders, which help to make this one of the safest systems out there. It's so motivating to watch even the super-fit STS exercisers (including Cathe herself!) grimacing and struggling to get those last few reps out.
I wasn't going to bother with the 1RMs, but after watching the first few discs of Meso 1 and reading through the guide book, I have changed my mind and plan on dedicating as much time tomorrow as my muscles will allow me to get through the 5 and 4 star 1RMs. I also wasn't going to start STS until I finished with the CLX rotation, but I'm quickly changing my mind on that, too. I can't wait to dive into STS.
