Hello all

I'd like to do the April 2006 rotation focused on the lower body. However I don't have the Slow and heavy DVD or the Pyramids. I only have Butts & Gutts, Gym Style Legs and Legs and Glutes. What can I substitute for the SH and the Pyramids? Also what's heavy weight???? today I bought 15lbs dumbells and that's the heaviest I have. I have 5, 8, 10, & 15 lbs. dumbells.




Hi Everyone! This rotation is designed to improve lower body strength and definition by working hard with heavier weight for two weeks and then switching to lighter weights for two weeks. This approach allows the heavily worked legs to actively recover in a less taxing way while continuing to gain/receive benefits. Feel free to repeat this rotation once completed to continue with progress and benefits. Remember to eat clean and healthy too. Enjoy!

WEEK ONE:

Monday: Slow & Heavy Legs (only)and Segemnt 2 of Coremax
Tues: MIC
Wed: Cardio Kicks
Thurs: Slow and Heavy Legs
Fri: 45 minutes steady state run and segment one of Coremax
Sat: Bootcamp
Sun: Off/stretchmax segment


WEEK TWO:

Mon: Pyramid Lower Body and 10 minutes Ab Hits
Tues: Cardio and Weights
Wed: KPC
Thurs: Push Pull plus CTX Step & Intervals (cardio only)
Fri: 45 minute run or cycle (steady state) 5 minutes abs
Sat: Pyramid Lower Body
Sun: Off/Stretch


WEEK THREE:

Mon: Low Max
Tues: Leaner Legs and segment 3 coremax
Wed: Step Blast
Thurs: Kick Max plus a 20 minute run
Fri: Leaner Legs plus 10 minutes of Ab Hits
Sat: OFF
Sun: Step Jump and Pump

WEEK FOUR:

Mon: Imax 2
Tues: 45 minute steady state run and 5 minutes abs
Wed: Gym Style Legs plus 5 minutes abs
Thurs: CTX Kickbox and CTX Step & Intervals (cardio only on both)

Thank you much,

Why don't you sub the Gym Style series for S&H and use the heaviest weight you can. Another idea may be to slow down the count and do for example, one squate for every two Cathe does in Gym Style Legs to allow yourself to up the weight. I hope you enjoy your rotation!

Premixes for Strength ?Question ?

Has anyone done any of the premixes on Drill Max (or any of the newer circuit workouts) that just utilize the "strength segments" like the "total body premix" on Drill Max or "double upper body" on BM2?
Can they be used as a "solid weight" day in a rotation. I only have Muscle Endurane and Muscle Max as far as strength w/o's. I'm looking to use one of these premixes (or any premix)to change things up a bit.
