Body Beast

First, what is Body Beast? Body Beast is a Beachbody Fitness Program. Beachbody's website describes it as the most advanced, muscle defining, … Continue reading Body Beast

Weider Ruthless

Weider Ruthless was discovered by accident. Actually, Amazon's practice of "recommending" things they think I might be interested in buying, based on my past purchases, things on my wishlist, things I browse, etc. is a pretty good method to get me to spend $$ as I have purchased several things because of their recommendations. This is … Continue reading Weider Ruthless

STS Wrap Up

I did it! My longest "program" rotation to date. I did 5.5 months of Cathe's STS. If you are new to this blog or STS or my blog posts on STS, go back to the very first post where I explained what STS is: STS Overview and Prep, in order to understand some of the … Continue reading STS Wrap Up

STS Week 22 (Disks 34, 35 & 36)

For more info on STS see STS Overview and Prep. This is it! The final week of STS. Meso 3 week 4 workouts are practically identical to Meso 3's week 1, 2 and 3 workouts. Here is the difference: you are now lifting 85% of your 1RM, but for 8 reps. So you have increased … Continue reading STS Week 22 (Disks 34, 35 & 36)

STS Week 21 (Disks 31, 32 & 33)

For more info on STS see STS Overview and Prep. Like I mentioned in the last review, these reviews are going to get shorter because, just like last week, these workouts are very similar to the first two weeks of Meso 3 (Week 19 and Week 20). The difference? For the upper body workouts you … Continue reading STS Week 21 (Disks 31, 32 & 33)

STS Week 20 (Disks 28, 29 & 30)

STS Week 19 (Disks 25, 26 & 27)

For more information on STS see STS Overview and Prep Mesocycle 3 begins! And since I am doing the 5.5 month rotation (rather than a 6.5 month rotation) I will only be in Meso 3 one month--so the STS reviews will be coming out weekly for the next 4 weeks. I also decided to not … Continue reading STS Week 19 (Disks 25, 26 & 27)

STS Weeks 16, 17 & 18 (Disks 22, 23 & 24)‏

For more information on STS see STS Overview and Prep This is the last trio of workouts in Mesocycle 2 and boy are they tough. The weeks get a little wonky here because I had a mishap/injury. I hurt myself while doing Disk 22 and made it worse somehow the next day doing cardio (I have no clue how I managed … Continue reading STS Weeks 16, 17 & 18 (Disks 22, 23 & 24)‏
