Dear Cathe:
I work in the PE department of the local high school and I was discussing weight training with the dept. head the other day. I mentioned that I knew of people getting really good results working each muscle group once a week. He said that didn't make sense because he had always understood that a muscle will start to atrophy after 72 hours of not being worked. I also remember reading that years ago.
Has that theory been disproven? Does the light work involved in cardio prevent the atrophy? Obviously once per week is working for lots of people. Is it like so many other things and the individual results vary?
Thank you so much for the wonderful new workouts. Since DH had a week off between Christmas and New Years, he watched the tapes with me while I previewed them. He was in awe. He told me he was so proud of me when I was staggering around yesterday after making it through IMAX 2. He does his own lifting routine, but I wouldn't be surprised to see him trying one of your tapes soon.
The creativity, intellifgence, and innovation are so well balanced with humor, fun, and warmth. Even if I say rude things at you at times, I will always know which tape to pull out when I want the most fulfilling workout.
