    Endormorph's and Long Workouts?

    Well that definitely could have played a role in what was happening with me because there were atleast 2 days a week where steady state cardio was done after STS so the water retention and cortisol levels had ample opportunity to play a role in how I looked and felt.

    Endormorph's and Long Workouts?

    I was wondering if I had read that cortisol could be elevated with the longer cardio after the strength training but I wasn't sure. Now, with the moderate interval training is that like metabolic training? There must be something to what you say because since starting Ripped With Hiit I have...

    Endormorph's and Long Workouts?

    Thanks, I will keep the post up On some STS days I would do cardio right after to get it in and if it were steady state it took me an additional 30 or 35 minutes that day with Hiit it was only an additional 25 or 30. I think Sts can be longer because your using more equipment on some discs.

    Endormorph's and Long Workouts?

    Thanks, it depends on the body parts but Cathe says to focus on heavy weights and strength not endurance and then there is a finisher at the end but of 3 sets but yeah my body does seem to be responding nicely.

    Endormorph's and Long Workouts?

    I'm sorry I didn't mean to imply that the hypertrophy was to blame, that's my favorite way of lifting. In Ripped With Hiit I believe that's hypertrophy and my body seems to respond great to how that's done. That's why I was curious as to what key difference is between STS and Ripped with Hiit...

    Endormorph's and Long Workouts?

    Thanks, I'm not doing STS right now because I'm beginning the second month rotation of Ripped With Hiit. Now that I think about it, it could be my hormones have something to do with it. I've been watching my diet, I've always avoided Soy and have cut way back on sugar. I understand the Zinc...

    Endormorph's and Long Workouts?

    Alright, I could be incorrect and please those of you who have experienced this let me know. First, I'm over 40, only 5'2 and my wrist is about the size of a 12 year old little girl. I can gain muscle fairly easily, it's become more difficult the older I've gotten but I can still do it...

    Ripped w/Hiit - 2 Month Rotation-Question

    Hi Ladies, I just finished my 3rd week of Ripped w/ Hiit the 2 month rotation after having completed STS and I am already feeling somewhat leaner which is what I wanted. I'm wondering how long it took some of you to see a physical difference in your appearance. I want to continue to lean out...

    X-Train or Ripped w/Hiit

    I know I'm only in my second week of Ripped With Hiit but for those of you that did lean out using the program ( I'm going to do the two month rotation) how long before you noticed that you were leaning out. Thanks

    On The Fence

    I'm starting my 2nd week and I have to say it is definitely challenging but the workouts go at such a pace that before you realize it, it's over, which is a relief:)

    Ripped With Hiit/Any Variations

    Thanks, I don't have the Low Impact Series but maybe I should check into that, my shoulders need building up, well my arms in general and like I said I do like to work my legs twice a week atleast so a mix of the two may be a great idea.

    Ripped With Hiit/Any Variations

    Hello Ladies, I just started Ripped With Hiit the two month rotation. I'm used to working my legs out with weights at least 2 days a week, did any of you vary the schedule a bit and how were your results? If not and you did the 2 month rotation exactly as is, how was your results? Actually...

    Found condonms in my 17 year old sons backpack (advise)

    I would talk with him about not just the physical issue of sex but the emotional impact it can have on two people if they aren't ready to be in that type of relationship. Extremely strong emotions can develop not just from his point of view but from the young lady as well, things can get...
