I totally agree 40something!
KPC is awesome, but you will likely need a specifically weight-based workout to improve muscle tone. KPC can often improve muscle tone, but strength training really is essential. There have been quite a few threads on decreasing cardio & improved weight loss. You may want to check those out- on the Open Discussion forum, I think.
40something, I think this may answer your question- I copied a post from a while back. Some very intelligent person made a list but I can't give her due credit because I don't remember where I got this. At the top of the list is endurance. As you progress downward, the workouts become more strength focused. Conversely, at the bottom is strength, and as you progress upward the workouts are more endurance based.

I hope that helps!
