My January rotation

[NAB]

Hi all. Hope you don't mind my jumping in on your rotation check in. I've been doing the posted Jan. rotation and wondered if anyone had a good substitute for MIC which I plan to do this weekend. I have the Blast series, the CXT disc, Cardio Kicks and Circuit Max; 2 intensity discs which have Boot Camp, Muscle endurance, Cardio & Weight, and Imax #2; and the Classic Hits DVD. I was thinking maybe something off the CXT disc?

Thanks for your help,

Natalie

Hi Natalie. You can use the hi/low of circuit max and the cardio premix of bootcamp and the step of Cardio and weight or a premix of step blast.The hi/low in the ctx workouts is a great option to substitute the hi/low of MIC . Have a great weekend.

Hi Natalie,

I tend to think of these in categories -- otherwise I get confused. My categories are: (this breakdown is from the book, READY, SET, GO! by Phil Campbell -- a book about kicking up your intensity training -- and what that has to do with staying young and keeping healthy)

1) aerobics -- cardio
2) anaerobics
3) muscle or endurance training
4) plyometrics
5) stretching

I know there's many subdivisions within each category, but these are the main components of a good fitness rotation. Now, I tend to categorize MIC in the heavy aerobics to anaerobics category and so for me, I would substitute it with IMAX or IMAX2 or High Step Advanced or Bootcamp -- all four of these I consider tapes that give me an anaerobic workout, plus cardio, plus plyometrics. High Step and Bootcamp also gives me mucle training, meaning I need to put a full day off from anaerobics AND muscle training between the workouts -- usually after an anaerobic AND muscle tape I do a lower cardio workout.

Don't know if this will help, but there you go. My take on it.:7
