Just did this one today - it's fabulous! I've just finished an STS/STS2/LMR 12-week rotation (made it up myself) and was kind of dreading going back to faster paced weight workouts. This one was great, though! The pacing is really nice, and allows for heavier weights to be used. I also...

I've completed the 2 month rotation! That in itself impresses the heck out of me - I don't remember the last time I completed a rotation LOL! I did find the single body part weeks difficult to stick with, as they're such time-hogs. I also added on the bonuses when I could. However, the results...

Enid Moy in the Cathletes Facebook group puts together Live rotations that mirror Cathe’s monthly DVD rotations. I don’t know if she’s active in these forums or not, but her rotations are excellent.

The Gym Styles used to be the backbone of my strength training, back in the day! They are amazing. I'm not surprised your chest & triceps were trembling! Mine used to tremble just thinking about that workout LOL! The Shock Cardio series with the MMAs and the Circuits are hidden gems in Cathe's...

Which ones are new to you? I'll be curious to hear your thoughts about them.

It's definitely true that understanding your body's limits is a life-long learning process! Thank you for sharing this, Debinmi!

I like the looks of the March rotation very much! But I'm still 2.5 weeks away from finishing the 8-week STS2/LMR rotation, then I want to jump into the February rotation. Too many rotations, so little time....

Hi Cathe! I didn't have a chance to provide this in your request for feedback on the new series, but I do have something I would like to ask: can you please emphasize upper back and neck posture? Specifically, providing an antidote to all of the forward slumping we tend to do as we sit in front...

<Sigh> You could be very right. Compared to how I used to exercise, what I'm doing now seems a long way off from overtraining. But perhaps the overtraining threshold gets lower, as we get older. I'm half-way through Cathe's 8-week LMR/STS2 rotation, and loving it. Resistance training is my...

I completely agree! Thank you for sharing that! I was vegan many years ago, and my energy quickly bottomed out, too. It's experiences like that that taught me to pay attention to noticeable changes in energy, especially when you're doing everything "right." Sometimes "right" doesn't mean "right...

Oh my goodness, you are going through it, Ashaw! You have an inordinate amount of stress to manage! Do you have social support? Family? Friends? I hope you're not managing this on your own! I don't have one-tenth of the stress in my life that you're coping with. I'm so sorry :-( Your mind and...

Thank you for the suggestions, everyone! I do have a doctor's appointment scheduled for mid-March, and I'll bring this up with her. Outside of medical testing, does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions? I'm wondering whether it has to do with my body needing more recovery than it used to...

Good question! How would I know? What does a full thyroid work-up entail?

I'm a healthy 54 year old menopausal woman (on HRT), and I'm sooooo sleepy!! I sleep 7.5 - 8 hours every night, I have no sleep issues (no apnea, no snoring, no snoring partner, no insomnia), and yet every single morning I have to drag my butt out of bed. Even with my morning coffee, my head...

Amazing, Lannette! Wonderful to hear!
