I have bigger hips and thighs. My upper body is fine no pro with my arms at all. Just wondering how to speed up the process of weight lose. I currently follow the weight watchers diet. I am at the lowest number of points and I think I might not be eating enought any suggestions I really need some help I am frustrated!! I have struggled with my weight since I was a child!
Thank you for all your help

Ok, give me a breakdown of what your workout rotation looks like right now. How many rest days are you taking?

Also, if you are following WW like I did, you are definitely NOT eating enough. I was on the 21 point range and that roughly translates into 1200 calories a day. That was way too low for me. I lost weight on WW, but I couldn't gain muscle mass or lose my body fat. So give me an idea of what you eat. We'll go from there.

as far as WW I follow the 18points a day. I have one cheat day. I run 3 times a week roughly 3 to 4 miles and abs. the other 3 days I do circuit training, or KPC or 4 day split or some other cathe dvd but always with weights in it and cardio.

Ok, you are doing way to much cardio. Are you doing any muscle building workouts? Do you have the Gym Style Series or any other of Cathe's muscle workouts?

So you have her Gym Style workouts? If so, you have a good collection to do a rotation with. Yes, you are doing too much cardio. Way too much. That is what I was doing when I was on WW. I did 6 hours of cardio a week and yes, at first I lost weight, but then I got to a point where nothing would come off.

I started lifting and as I progressed, my lifting got heavier and heavier and my body fat dropped. I usually do three to four days of lifting and 2 to 3 hours of cardio.

If you are up to a Gym Style rotation, I can give you some basic guidelines. Let me know.

I dont have gym style legs but I have legs that come with KPC
I have hard core compilation, the terminator, 4 day split,cardio fusion, KPC,step blast,step jump and pump,low max, body max,butts and guts,ab hits plus I have turbo jams tae bo the firms series,

[Fitnessfreakk366]

Ok, then I suggest you purchase the Gym Style series. Seriously, if you want to see changes in your body you have to lift some serious weights. And if you are afraid of getting too muscular - DON'T! It won't happen unless you take steroids or you gain muscle fairly easy. Most women have to work very hard to gain muscle mass. What I am aiming for you to do is tone up your body and burn body fat. Lifting will do this and GS is the way to go.

Is there any way you can get your hands on this serious in the near future? If not, I can do up a rotation using the 4DS workouts. They are also good for toning up the body and gaining muscle. Let me know.

[Becki0214]

if you can work one in with the 4 day split I can always lift heavier weights....I am going to try and get the gs series for Chrismas from my hubby

[Fitnessfreakk366]

Ok, give me this evening to work on something for you. I'll do up a basic rotation for you to start with. I need to go home and refresh my memory with the 4DS series.
