Hello everyone,
I've seen this come up in several posts here lately, so I decided I'd ask for some feedback. I've been doing pretty consistent workouts this year, aside from winter sickness and an unplanned week off for trips home. What I'm seeing is consistent maintenance of my current weight. I've definitely seen improved cardio and muscle endurance, but now I want to get rid of that last layer of ick that has been there since I had my babies.
SO, if more or heavier weight training is better, which series or rotations have any of you had good success with? I have all of Cathe's workouts and I don't do any other instructors anymore. I made the first transition, which was getting back onto a consistent workout schedule (5-6 days per week). Now I want to kick it up a notch. I haven't used the Gym Style workouts much since they came out, and I'm wondering if a rotation using GS or Pure Strength would be the best option? I notice alot of people seem to rely on the Pyramids for heavy weight work, too. I'm just not sure which workout series is best for what I want to do. (I know that clean eating is the other part of the equation, so I've been making more of an effort to educate myself on that and incorporate it - it's a work in progress, like me!)
I hope this isn't too long, I'm just trying to get something put together to do for my July rotation and wanted to pick the brains of this educated crowd!
TIA,
Tricia
