Hi I'm back and ready to work. I got over the back injury with the help of physical therapy and doing the Firm Express system (cardio and weight circuits with lots of core training) for the last month. I started Turbofire and I'm already bored with it after two weeks. It must be the music or...

Hi Cathe! I have a question about how to work back up to a peak fitness level. I'm recovering from a sprained back and I'm only doing beginner level Pilates and will be starting physical therapy soon. The last rotation I finished was the December'10. So after a month of very light exercise, how...

I finally did it! Completed 6 month STS rotation! Here's the results: 1. Lost 6 of the 10 lbs that I gained during the program thanks to a cleaned up diet in Meso 3. 2. Firmer legs thanks to Plyo legs, and more power during Hiit workouts and high impact step aerobics as well. Visible quads...

I'm hoping and suggesting that there be a monthly rotation based on the new DVDs released at the end of the month ... hint, hint? ;) Maybe with a little Shock Cardio thrown in to up the fat burn? Yes I am a sucker for punishment. Thank You!

Has any one else gained weight on this program? Yes I have seen my biceps and lats get bigger, but my waistline is getting a little bigger too. My oblique definiton is starting to disappear. :( My diet hasn't changed any since I started this rotation. Before STS, I was doing the monthly...

I started mesocycle 2 this week and found that if the rep patterns are 12, 10, 8, and then to failure, my failure reps usually end up at about 14 to 16 reps. Is this normal? Also would it hurt to add an extra 20 to 30 minutes of light cardio or other non weight activity when I'm feeling...

So next week is active recovery and I have cardio and pilates planned. I look forward to working on my flexibility, but I noticed that improved during the workouts thanks to the extended stretch chapter. Other improvements: 1.Things are tighter and more lifted, even though I gained 7 lbs...

Why doesn't my workout card print out the suggested percentage weight for all of my exercises even though I did the 1RM tests for them? For example, I did the 1RM test for dumbell squats and got a 1RM of 32 lbs, but on the Disc 3 workout card, the recommended percentage weight to use prints out...

I'm doing the Circuit City rotation (September '07 I think) this month and tried to tack on the 1RM testing to the end of the workouts. That got too time consuming so I cut back to just 40 minutes cardio and the 1RM testing. I'm still wiped out and not too motivated to finish. I did most of the...

I completed the March '10 rotation, and now I'm wondering if I should use next week to do 1rm testing and cardio only, or should I add an extra week of workouts and fit the testing in around the workouts. How do other people fit it in? Do you tack it on at the end of your weight workouts or do...
