    correction to 1rep max...

    Hi, Cathe and Snm, I just started week 2 for chest/shoulders and biceps of Meso #1. I am repeating each week doing a 6 month rotation and I am truly enjoying the workouts. But if I need to update the poundage for one of the exercises, how do I plug in the poundage without trying to do the rep...

    No soreness with week 1 of Meso 1..

    I totally agree.... Yes, I think that doing the 6month rotation is a real jewel. I will go a little heavier in week2. It is so funny that you suggest going to absolute max in the last rep in every exercise, my husband told me to do pushup (at least every other round) on my toes. He says...

    No soreness with week 1 of Meso 1..

    exactly... Ny25, I felt the same way you did about going heavier and not being able to complete the exercise! I am also thinking meso cycle 1 is not necessarliy going to make you sore, especially since I have been exercising constantly for about 3 months. I just assumed because this series is...

    No soreness with week 1 of Meso 1..

    except for legs:eek:. Is it normal not to have soreness after doing the upper body at 60% of the 1rm? I know that I feel it during the exercises, but I am not at all sore afterwards. I am currently doing the 6month rotation, so I will be repeating week one starting Friday, maybe I'll be sore...

    sts notice

    This is sorta confusing... I noticed that some people recieved notices of delivery whose order numbers are higher than mine.:confused: What is even worse is that I paid overnite delivery, no notice via phone number or notice via email. My aunt, who ordered on the very last day, recieved a...

    Rotations for weight lost using STS...

    I am sorry if this question has been asked before (did a search and could not find an answer), I know that the STS guide will have suggestions for cardio days or non-weight workout days, but will you have a specific rotation for weight loss using STS? I still have alot of weight to use and...

    Questions for those using Clx and ordered Sts...

    Thanks to those who replied. I think I am going to start the STS series and than start the clx later in the summer. Of course it all depends on which package I receive first, probably clx. Now that I think about it, it is probably best to do one program in its entirety and than began another...

    Questions for those using Clx and ordered Sts...

    My husband surprised me with the Chalene workout program, not realizing that I haven't received the STS yet. I am expecting the clx some time next week. I plan to follow the STS series for 6 month, and now I want to incorporate Clx. Is it feasible to alternate each week of Sts with a week of...

    Before Pics?

    I finally did it.... All this talk about before and after pictures and doing the 6month program on the STS series, has movtiated me to get going. I took my before pics; one in my current workout wear with all sides (front,back, left side and right side) and the other in my "jeans that I want to...

    For those old Firmies....

    Does anyone have the barbell with the pad attached from the old firmies? If so, do you remember the weight of the barbell? As I am preparing my workout room for the new STS series, I pulled out the old barbell and was wondering.... what is the weight? For the life of me I can't remember the...

    poundage in STS

    Thank you for replying. Money is sort of tight for me right now, so buying anything additional is not an option for me. I guess I'll have to wing it without the weighted gloves or magnetic plates. Veronica

    poundage in STS

    I hope my question doesnt confuse you or anyone, but what weight do I use if my 1rm at 60% is 9, 11, 13 or 17lbs and I dont have the plates or weight magents to attach? For example, if I am supposed to use 9lbs for a particular exercise, should I decrease my weight to 8lbs or increase to 10lbs...

    Fitness Freak's December 08 Rotation for 12/9

    I am a day behind the rotation ( just the way my schedule is) so today I did G/S chest and triceps. Holy cow, I havent done this dvd in a while i had to modify my pushups (knee position). I dont remember my triceps burning so quickly into the workout, but my chest and tricep will be sssssore...

    Yet another STS question.....

    As I was printing off my workout card, my husband asked me if I should retest my IRM after each meso-cycle. Should I retest after each cycle or should I retest only after completing all three cycles? Thanks, Veronica

    1rm easier than you think

    I have to say that it is easier than I thought. I have completed 95% of my 1rm testing. The only exception was some legs exercises in Meso 3, there are some that I am not familar with so I will wait until the tutorial is available. But I have to agree it is a lot easier than I thought, I guess I...

    video clips

    Good evening, SNM and crew, since the end is approaching for the release of the STS series, will you be posting anymore clips? Also, I read from a previous poster, that the slant risers are on backorder. If that still the case, how much longer will it be on backorder? Because I want to purchase...

    Non Political Housing Vent!!!

    I agree a lot of people got caught in this home crisis, and I used to feel that people should have know better. For the most part, most homeowners dont want to lose their homes and just forgot about reading the small print before signing. My sister in law, who i love dearly, bought a fixer upper...
