leaner legs

Inciser,
If PLB is the only other lower body weight workout that you have then it would be a good sub for LL. Leaner Legs is a very endurance based leg workout that is high rep and it has different moves than PLB, or similar moves with a lot of low ends thrown in (this was the workout where Cathe "discovered" the low end}( ), so if you have any other lower body workouts let us know and we might suggest another substitution. Otherwise, I would use PLB and lighten up the weights, but do all the standing work twice through, skipping the floorwork.
HTH,
Mattea

Incisor,
This will be much easier in that you have all the other videos
LL runs in "cycles", for example, squats (varying tempo), leg presses (varying weights), calf raises. Each cycle consists of about 2 "big exercises" for the legs (squats, plie squats, sit and stands, leg presses, one legged squats, lunges, dead lifts) finished with a few sets of calf raises to give the legs a brief break, all done with medium weights (both db and bb)---so it is definitely endurance for the legs! The best substitution that I could offer would be actually taking some of her endurance all body weight workouts and mixing them together. For example, do the lower body only from Muscle Max and Muscle Endurance (adding on the calf work from Gym Style Legs). Another good sub might be the lower body only from Super Sets and Push Pull. Feel free to lighten the weights a little bit with these as in LL Cathe's only using 35lbs on her BB. You would have to add on about 8-10 minutes of "good old fashioned" abdominal work at the end. Something with no equipment and a lot of crunches at various speeds from all angles.
Let me know if you have any other questions:7
