Freestyle rotation - do you have to workout 2hrs per day?

RWattier

Cathlete
I am trying to put together a Freestyle rotation - which will work my legs 6X per week and upper body 2X and cardio 3-4X per week, but it looks like i need to workout for 90mins or more to do that everyday? Any suggestions....................I will workout that much if I have to though! I have a tubing trip end of July and I want to really tone up my lower body........I can find the time if I need to........

I hope someone answers this because I have started freestyle training a week ago and I'm working out at least 90 minutes. If I do cardio after it is 2 hours. That is the only thing I'm not liking about it.

I do freestyle and I work out any where between an hr and 90 minutes... I do 20-30 minutes of cardio(mostly jogging).. 15-20 minutes of leg work,if its my day off work, I do a full cathe leg workout. I do abs 3 times a week sometimes 2 times a day... and upper body 2 to 3 times a week, what ever I have time for... You could get your whole workout done in about an hr and 20 minutes or less, depending.....
I don't have a rotation.............

Hi,

When I was doing freestyle training my average workout time was about 90 minutes a day.

So you can do a Cathe leg dvd 6X per week and add on from there?

If I am reading this correctly you work legs 6X per week, and upper body 2X and add cardio in as well???

Yes, I use Cathe's leg workouts as much as I can....
I do cardio everyday, 20 to 30 minutes........ Rhonda

I agree with the other freestyle ladies. I workout at least 90 min a day. I don't really follow a rotation but if you check the other Freestyle post about questions to me, I kinda breakdown what I do per day. I follow my own upper body, and try for abs 5-6 times a week. I do cardio everyday but remember I am a distance runner and am used to it. Let me know what Cathe workouts you have and I'll try to figure something out for you. Remember...you need to cut the weight amount in Cathe's tapes to 70% of what you were doing before or you will be REAL sore and could injure something. So if you used 50lbs for squats go to 35lb now....Carole

Hi Rhonda,

I am interested in the freestyle training routine but can't seem to locate it. Is there a specific website or book? Would greatly appreciate some direction as the thighs are my biggest problem area for me and I know I need to add to my workout. Thanks so much.
 
Most of the time I look for mckmain when I have ?'s about freestyle. You can go to this website: www.gsnyderproductions.com and order the freestyle fitness book .It is 34.95 plus 5.00 s/h. You can also pay for it w/ paypal. I got mine and I am on my second time reading it.I have not started a routine yet.HTH

Thanks Heather...:)...for giving Luv2workit the link for the book..

Luv2workit, I am not Rhonda but I have a few other websites that have info about Freestyle, plus look in the Rotation forum and Reba has posted a freestyle rotation using Cathe workouts. Here are 2 more links that I believe I copied from one of Rhonda's freestyle posts awhile ago...:

Reba,
Mckmain mentioned that you have a freestyle rotation w/ also using cathe workours. I can't find it.:-( Do you have the link? Thanks
 
Not so good. I have ben lazy the last 3 days as far as exercising (sp?). I have (18) 30 gallon containers of Christmas stuff that I am trying to repack and catalog then they go into the attic. I collect nutcrackers so none of them are going up.Neither are my candles or window clings. I have been going to bed at 10:30 and my husband gets me up at 2:00 a.m.. On top of that I have a 2 story house to clean, the new puppy and the therapists that come work w/ my autistic son. I plan to restart tomorrow morning. The walkning lunges are getting better. I still do no more than 200 AFTER my track/bleacher workout. I am going to do ME on Saturday.


Thanks for the link

You are welcome...:)...WOW Heather you have alot of Xmas stuff! I bet your house looks awesome that time of year! Sorry for not much sleep...:(...my very good friend that I saw tonight has an autistic daughter. I know it can be quite a struggle...my thoughts and prayers are with you...exercise can sometimes help in certain situations. Personally I think you are doing very good due to the conditions...:)...Carole
