We've got a thread going about that very thing in OD! Not only were there 1,000,000 pushups in Meso 1 but they were at a FAST pace. And for me it's cat hair. Or one of the cats, since I have two that like to walk under me when I'm doing (or trying to do?) pushups so I also have to make...

I just finished Meso 2 and I'm in my "rest week" before starting Meso 3. This is my first time through. I definitely feel stronger and tighter and have noticed that my endurance has increased when I do cardio. I didn't measure before I started ( I was lucky to do the 1RM!!) so I don't know if...

I am SO with you!! Those pushups in Meso 1 were terrible for me! I was really glad to finish with the whole cycle so I wouldn't have to do so many *%*&^ pushups!! Can you tell I hate them? :D (and yes, I know they are good for me, but so are brussels sprouts and I hate them too!!)

I don't believe the STS strength program was designed with Meso 1 being "beginner," 2 being "intermediate" and 3 being "advanced" so whether you have been doing prior weight training makes no difference. Many if not most if not all of us here are not newbies to weight training. Each meso has a...

Janie, the bottom line is that you have to do what you feel is right. None of us was at the scene and can only look at the situation from the outside. Our own instincts are frequently our best guide.

I agree with all of this. :)

I don't think disagreeing with you is slamming you, and I don't disagree with all of your points. I believe that you are using your own experience as an 18 year old to define how others may be living their lives at that age and that doesn't necessarily translate into all situations. Some of...

Kelly I think you've made a very good point about the calories and labels. I've read some research that shows the calorie count on the labels can be inaccurate by 20% and more. The numbers are at best an estimate. I also think that it's better not to get caught up in isolating the numbers...

Y'all are cracking me up. :D

Pam, I don't think you'd have a problem picking up the choreography on IMAX 2. It's cued in a different style than Step Moves and not all of the intervals are on the step so you get a break from it. Step Moves was a bit tricky to me and I'm very familiar with Cathe's choreo. Enjoy!

That's very sad. What sort of lesson did that child learn--that he can do as he pleases and say whatever he wants with no consequences? We had a client who screamed, yelled and raised holy you-know-what with one of our staff on the telephone. When she went to the client's office and spoke to...

Double hijack--I was wondering the same thing. Maybe because the workouts haven't been formally announced and described in detail it's gossip since we don't have official information? It's not really my definition of gossip but maybe to someone it is??? I never even noticed that we could...

I'm sure it is stylized---I was just a little kid so probably my whole life at the time was pretty stylized and my memory isn't that clear :D. And of course I had no idea what the workplace would have been like. My dad wore the Donald Draper type of clothes and had a drink every day after...

Here are my reasons: the writing, the character development, it takes place during an era that hasn't been done to D-E-A-T-H IMHO (like the 70s and 80s), and authentic details. I was a child during the period it's about---the age of the middle Draper child---and it's like revisiting my young...

ITA agree. I also believe that more details about the new workouts will be described in the next newsletter.

This really hit home with me because my company is also in the midst of doing performance reviews. I think it's good that your conversation with your boss was straightforward. Too often it is a dog and pony show because the boss doesn't want to be honest or may not know how to give a critique...

Mad Men (yay! it's back!) Top Chef Project Runway The Soup That's about it. During the summer I watch mostly baseball. I've become a fan of a few other shows that get cancelled--not sure what that says about me--am I the kiss of death for tv shows?? :p

Not everyone.

I heard that one of his reasons to leave is that one of his colleagues had hooked up with his mom and he was having trouble dealing with it. :confused:

Thanks for the heads up. I'm in the middle of an STS rotation and I NEEDS MY WORKOUT CARDS!!!! :eek:
