The thread below about gaining weight instead of losing it has me wondering if I'm experiencing a similar problem due to performing more cardio than weight training. My schedule right now is as follows:
M - 35min Cardio/25 weights
T - 20min Interval cardio then 45 steady state cardio
W - 55min all upper body weight training
TH- 20min Interval cardio then 45 steady state cardio
F - 60min cardio / 30 weights
S - 30 cardio / 45 weights
Sun- rest or light cardio
It seems like I'm not really making much progress in terms of tone and definition, and can't figure out how I workout most days of the week, of varying intensity and varying activities, yet still have as much 'softness' as I do. I'm afraid that my body has become so accustomed to this much cardio, that anything less will result in more weight gain if I scale back at all. Has anyone successfully cut down on cardio and seen positive changes?? Any insight/experiences would be great!!
TIA!
Nicole
