Morning,
If you’re a diehard Cathe fan
and you can’t wait for STS, there is now the official FAQ available!
Here’s a brief bit of it:
#1 Cathe Describes STS in her Own Words.
Hi Everyone! I am noticing that there is still a bit of confusion surrounding the STS program and also that many are still viewing the series as a bit complicated and perhaps overwhelming. I am just wondering if I, or even Chris, are failing to explain anything properly. The only reason I ask is because I am THE LAST person who will touch a complicated program. I won’t go near anything that I have to read at length to “get it”. So doing these rehearsals and feeling the ease at which the routines flow, the soreness they are producing, and the muscle recruitment of the various applied techniques, I can’t help but feel the need to let you know how uncomplicated, yet very effective, this system is.
All you have to do is find your one rep max…that’s it!
And if you don’t want to use an online rep max calculator, simply pick up a weight that makes you say “hmmm, I don’t know about that weight” and try to lift it 10 times. If you keep good form while turning all funny shades of red and say things I can’t type here…you found your weight. But if you are losing your form and not even getting 8 reps out of that weight its too heavy. On the other hand if you are getting 15 reps like a breeze, do yourself a favor and load up!! ….MORE…..
Sure sounds like an interesting program! I really like the ideas about MesoCycles and will be posting more about that at another time.
Stay tuned,
Barbara
