I have posted a format for Muscle Endurance(1 of 6 new videos I'm working on) below and I would greatly appreciate if you would contribute your thoughts as to whether it sounds good as is or if you would rather see it changed somehow.

Muscle Endurance.....I have two thoughts on how to do this workout. One way is to simply do another which is similar in style to Power Hour but with a slightly different approach. If so, what things would you like to see more or less of for that matter (remember that low ends are good for you
;-))
Another way I was thinking of doing the muscle endurance workout was in a 60 minute circuit style fashion. A warm up followed by 6 five minute cycles of total body weight work, then finish with core work, push ups and a cool down stretch. Each five minute cycle would consisit of the following breakdown and focus on a particular muscle group:
Example of a leg and shoulder circuit cycle:
a) one minute high intensity leg exercise with moderate to heavy weight (ie: step ups).
b) 2 minutes of compound exercises (using light to moderate weight for upper body, while doing a lower body exercise, ie: squats with side lateral
raises)
c) 2 minutes of an upper body exercise with heavy weight (ie; standing over head press). BTW, a rest is included after one minute of the overhead press and then continue for another minute
d) brief overall rest setting up for the next cycle
This would be a totally heart pounding muscle endurance workout.
