Nov Rotation & Weights

[kblover]

Hey all,

I'm new to all of these videos (but I've been doing others for quite some time, hence the KB - kickboxing!). I purchased the 4 new videos and was really interested in the rotation listed. When I reviewed it, I noticed that there were no days set for doing weights. So I wanted to know if the new videos counted as weights or if I still had to fit that in separately.

Please let me know, because I really want to start these ASAP, and I want to do it right.

Thanks!!

I wouldn't count this as weight work as in you will build muscle doing this rotation, but I don't feel like I will lose it all doing the November rotation. After this rotation, I plan on hitting the weights hard. I'm currently finishing up week 2 and although, I consider myself pretty strong (maybe not Aqua-jock strong), am being humbled by some of the sequencing in these workouts.

I see. I just started doing Cathe's muscle max, and I loved it, which is why I got the other videos. I don't want to lose what I have gained, but I don't have time to do everything either.

Maybe I'll just follow your lead and hit the weights hard after this rotation

Thanks!

Ladies: that is exactly what I was thinking of doing as well. I'm following cathe's november 2006 rotation and I really don't think I'm losing muscle here. But, I do wanna do a day just for weights. So, I'm gonna do that in December! We should be ok, right???

take care

I hope so! What I didn't realize before is that there are weight segements in the vidoes. I haven't done them all yet, but from reading, I think the upper body may need a little more help. The B&G seems to cover the lower very well (at least for me. I am now VERY aware of my rear! haha!).

I am a little concerned about losing the little upper body muscle I have gained, so i may go against what I originally said and add in the upper body segement from Muscle Max.

Good Luck!

Hmmm...Yes, I like it. I really want to see a change in my body and I'm not the most patient person on the planet haha! I don't want to leave my weights behind while I do these videos either. I like the idea of the weights with the videos. I guess I get a little lost on when to do what because I know you're not supposed to work the same muscle on the following day. Do you also do any additions to the lower body? I find that to be my most difficult area, although the b&G workout is a great killer for me

I want to keep my legs slim and lean so I dont use heavy weights all that often. Sometimes I will mix my videos, I'll do Kick max leg conditioning drills, Gym style legs floor work only and Legs and glutes ankle weight work only

I'd have to say we are ALL VERY AWARE of our rear after doing B & G. I love this workout!!!

Well, I haven't been following the rotation exactly. I have been splitting BM2 into two and doing the "Double Upper Body" premix on the second day (step & circuits on the first). This increased the length of the rotation for me, but it's working out really well so far.
