This is it. I am making a twelve week committment. I am fifty years old and ten pound has crept around my belly. It needs to go. My wimpy solutions are not working. I have following four week rotation and they are not working.
What I have in my favor is that I have maintained consistent workouts..although not with the level of intensity or focus that they should have. I want to shape up my fitness and eating before Cathe releases her new tapes...I want to be ready for the challenge. It also would not hurt to be in better shape by the New Year!
The program that I have designed for myself consists of two parts. The first part is fitness and the second part is trying to maintain a clean diet.
In the fitness area, I am going to try to maintain a twelve week program which consists of repeating a four week rotation three times. This is based on a weight loss rotation which Cathe posted some time ago. The rotation was a bit dated and included walk/run workouts. I tried to update it and included other aerobic workout which I like. The rotation is as follows:
Week 1:
Mon: Cardio Kicks or Powerstrike
Tues: Slow and Heavy Chest and Back with 20 minutes of hi/lo aerobics as a warm up. I will probably use part of a Christi Taylor tape. Do warm-up also in SH CB.
Wed: Power Max
Thurs: Interval Max
Fri: Off (yoga stretch and extra abs/core work if desired. Donna Reed pilates abs workout is great as is I Want those Abs)
Sat: Slow and Heavy Legs and Shoulders
Sun: Slow and Heavy Triceps and Bicepts with the cardi portion of Xpress Step and Intervals as a warm up. Do warm-up SH TB
Week 2:
Mon: MIC
Tues: MIS
Wed: off (yoga stretch and extra abs/core work if desired)
Thursday: Rhythmic Step
Fri: Power Hour
Sat: A hi/low aerobic tape or kickboxing tape
Sun: Circuit Max
Week 3:
The Cross Train Express series in the order of your choice. But separate the Power Circuit workout from the leaner legs video. Seventh day is off.
Week 4:
Mon: High low aerobics or kickboxing.
Tues: Christi Taylor or Cathe step tape
Wed: Pure Strength BBA preceeded by warm-up and step section of Body Max. Skip warmup in PS BBA.
Thurs: PS CST preceded by Intense Moves with Gin Miller as warm up. Skip warmup in PS CST.
Fri: PS/ LA
Sat: Off (Yoga Stretch and extra abs if desired)
Sun: The warmup, circuit, upper body, abs, and cool down sections of Body Max.
For the eating component I am going to try to follow the 12 week clean diet program which is posted at:

I hope some of you will join me in weekly check ins on the Open Discussion Conference.
