Cathlete
I just booked a trip to my favorite beach in Florida, in my favorite beachfront condo. Mother's day weekend. :cool:


I hung up the phone with the condo manager and immediately began marking my Cathe calendar. I have all my workouts planned. I'm currently in the 1st week of a 4 week CLX Push phase. My plan is to begin STS after this phase is complete. I feel confident STS will be in my hands before my 4 week phase is over. :)
I marked STS weeks 1-12 on my calendar and I'm completely shocked!!!:eek:
I will finish a full round of STS the week before my trip! I will have a STS body for Mother's day!!!
I have been dreaming of my STS results.:D
I feel the beach date I chose is a sign.;)
 
Cynthia - where do you go in Florida? We go once a year, in the summer, and I am completely planning on rockin' this STS bod at the beach too :p We go to Seaside/Seagrove.
 
We go a lot further south to St. Petersburg, Florida. We fly into Tampa airport and the beach is about 30 minutes from the airport.
It is a very conservative, quiet beach.

Here is the view from the condo balcony.

OMG, I want to be at that beach RIGHT now....diggin' my toes in the sand and soaking up the warmth...

Instead, I'm in NW Ohio freezin my fat ass off and wondering if I even have the energy to finally put away my Christmas decorations...

Its very cold there today. I live much further south (SWF) and its very cold here today. I have socks and sweater and sweat pants on. My dogs have not moved off their beds. Brrrr.. But not as cold as up north.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
 
Heidi and Carmen,

It is freezing here too. :( I'm struggling with motivation to put my Christmas tree away. I put a few things away yesterday and I was spent. I really hate the winter blahs.
I need sun, beach, and sand between my toes:D
Only thing that could top that is an email stating my STS is on the way:D:D:D
 
Fit44, I know I read your planned STS rotation somewhere and it sounded interesting, but I can't find it now! Were you going to do Meso 1, Meso 2 twice and then Meso 3?

I was planning to do it that way until I counted it off on the calendar. I don't know.:confused: Will meso 3 bulk me for the beach? Maybe I should stick to my original plan and repeat meso 2 for the beach. My goal is to add muscle to improve my metabolism and look firmer.

I'm right there with you at the beach. Pretending I'm no longer in Mid-Michigan where the schools are all closed because of the windchill.

We actually went to a beach not far from there last March, so I could sit and look at my pics from then.
 
Cynthia, I live in FL very close to Destin (NW FL).

I really like your idea of skipping the lean phase of CLX and moving on to STS. I might do that, too - I think I may be ready to go back to Cathe by then. : )

Are the beaches crowded in Destin? Several of our friends and co-workers visit Destin quite often. It seems to be the hot spot for a lot of St Louis natives. We know several people who want to retire there. I've heard it has become more and more crowded over the past few years.

DH and I want to retire south of Tampa because we want to get away from winter. Do you have winter weather(freezing temps)?


I plan to revisit CLX after STS. That should put that rotation in the middle of summer to keep the fat burning going;) I may do P90X in the fall!
I think STS, CLX, and P90X are going to be my staple workouts for 2009:)
 
Cynthia, yes, during what most people call summer, it's crazy in Destin. During the other warm months like Sept. it's not so bad.

We have had weather in the 30's (the lows) the past few days, but that doesn't happen too often. It's been a really warm winter this year!

I've never done P90X, but if Chalean and STS go well, hey I might just have to get it, too!
 
Cynthia - I'm SO jealous - but happy you are going to be somewhere warm. It was -6 here today and is a whopping 10 degrees now! As for STS - I think if you are eating clean during Meso 3, you won't get too bulky - if you are lean, your muscles will just POP right out there and you will rock the beach!
 
Cynthia, did you see the ship date??

You will most definitely complete STS by Mother's Day now! I am PUMPED! Hubby and I are doing this together and he has been asking every day whether I've heard something. When I read that Sony gave us a ship date, I immediately called his cell phone to tell him (he had stepped out to run an errand). He was like "didn't we just check that earlier today?"---he was getting as bad as I was! (hee hee)

I ordered on the first day and got the 2nd day shipping as well. Since I am on the west coast the ground shipping just takes too darn long.... :)
