Help me decide....

I'm going to be doing a rotation with the Horizontal Conditioning workouts. I think it's going to go something like this:

Sun: CrossFire
Mon: HC
Tue: Steady state cardio...KickBoxing or Step
Wed: Yoga
Thu: HC
Fri: Total Body weight lifting

My problem is that I can't figure out which total body workout to do. Ones I'm considering are:

Turbo Barre
Muscle Endurance
Athletic Training
Low Impact Circuit

I don't want to do anything that is high impact. I limit those to once per week(and my knees thank me ). And right now(changes up every now and then), I'm more into muscle endurance than heavy lifting.

Any other options you have besides what is listed will also gladly be considered

TIA

That sounds like a great rotation! I'd be a little careful about the yoga right before an HC day. The chaturangas to up dog are similiar to HC in that you'll be working your chest and shoulders a lot with plank type moves. If you can, try to stick to yoga that doesn't have a lot of that stuff in it. Do you have STS total body, High Reps and/or Trisets total body? I just love those for total body strength workouts! STS total body goes a little heavier, but you could just use lighter weights if you want and add a few more reps for endurance type lifting. HTH!

My vote goes to Muscle Endurance...this is such a great total body weight workout and thorough!

I would go for muscle endurance. High reps, Sts total, power hours with moderate weight would work your muscles better. You won't bulk
Too much light weight would only work small muscle fibre. I would look like a runner:-// I would not like that for myself. Without sounding too visual, I am aiming to gain full benefit from lifting. Endurance hypertrophy and strength .

Thanks everyone!! I've decided to do them all...hehe I'm going to be focusing on my core/upper body strength until XTrain comes out. I'll swap my total body workout every two to three weeks just to change it up.
