Than you Carmen! I think I need a daily check in too! Sara

Thanks Carmen. I'll check it out! Sara

I'm not sure how the check ins work, but I need some accountability! I just cannot get myself motivated to maintain a consistent routine. Is there a general check in or are they kind of specific, like people doing sts or a cathe rotation?

Has anyone else tried this? A friend bought it and loaned it to me to preview for her. I thought it was awful. The ab workout seemed okay, but the upper body was just dreadful. 1 minute of each exercise with really low weights. Maybe its just not my thing...I checked amazon and it seems...

I "kind of" had the same thing happen. I didn't buy gym styles until after I finished my 6 month STS rotation, so I can't compare a before and after. But I was lifting weights similar to you in Meso 3 and really struggled in Gym Styles with much lighter weights. I was really surprised. But...

Thank you for all of the great suggestions! I am not a big cardio person (shame on me!) so I'm trying to work on it. I'll run and bike, but I don't know that I reach the intensity level I should. So now I'm trying to be better about that and think the Step DVDs and HIIT workouts (and...

I am fairly uncoordinated and have a hard time learning routines. I am trying to decide on a new Cathe cardio DVD and would welcome any help. I have Basic Step, Low Impact Step, and HIIT for cardio. Any suggestions for either a step dvd that is fairly easy to learn or a favorite circuit workout?

I'm Sara. I sent a request to everyone that posted a link. I like the idea of Cathlete posts! Here is mine. http://www.facebook.com/#!/profile.php?id=1299063659

I didn't keep very good logs of my weights so it is hard for me to say exactly what the results of my six month rotation were in any quantifiable way. I know that I can lift heavier and that my legs feel a lot more toned. My arms look pretty good and I've gotten a few compliments on how they...

Thank you fellow Cathletes! I liked the 6 month rotation for the first time through because I felt like I picked up the routine better--especially in Meso 1 which is so quick-paced. I think I'll do a three month rotation next time. But for now, I'm going to alternate a week of gym styles with...

I just finished my six month STS rotation. I'm very excited about using gym styles along with STS for a new rotation and really kicking up some cardio (which I haven't been doing as good of a job with). I told myself I could buy a Cathe STS T-shirt when I finished. Now I have to...

I had a weird foot problem this year too. Not sure if it is the same. I was completely fine and then one day, while running, I felt a sharp, stinging pain. Mine hurt near the bottom of the third toe, and the pain was primarily coming from the bottom side of my foot. I went to my podiatrist...

The Garmin is the best investment ever! I too had the Nike sensor thing, but it was NEVER accurate. It always had me running way faster than I knew I was or way farther than I knew I was. Because of those issues, I bought the 305 (a lot of my friends had the 405 and has some issues). The 305...

I didn't do the 1 rep test for those. I did them for the first few dvds of Meso 1 and found that most of the suggested weights were too darned heavy. I actually picked the weight just by thinking back to what I could have done in high school--I think I just overestimated a bit because it was...

bench pressing 65 lbs in Meso 2's first workout almost killed me? I feel that it is. I actually had to put the bar on my stomach after failure, and awkwardly roll it off. :(

Me too! I just finished disc 12 in my six month rotation. Very excited!!!! I think Meso 1 was included great workouts, but I must honestly say that I thought it was incredibly repetitious. I thought each DVD would be different, but they are mainly the same exercises in different order...

I am one month in to my STS six month rotation. I would kill for a rest week--really exhausted--but don't see one on the rotation until I finish all of Meso 1. Is that right? Yikes.

Lost Pines I have stayed there before and found it to be really enjoyable. The rooms were nice, the staff was pleasant, and the food was really good. I have also stayed at La Cantera in San Antonio for some work conferences and it is also a great place.

I feel your nail polish pain. I dropped a deep red polish bottle in my bathroom a few months ago. It broke, of course. It took me an hour to get the majority of the polish off the tile, door, and walls--I had to use remover and the fumes about killed me. There are still spots I see on the...
