Question re CTX

Shaz

Cathlete
Hi, can someone tell me about the weight training sections on the CTX videos, please. Are the exercises endurance style (eg like Power Hour), or strength style with short sets and rests (eg like Pure Strength)? Has anyone made strength gains at the same time as getting fit, or is this series mainly for people aiming to lose weight?

Many thanks,
Sharon.
 
Hi. Quoting Cathe:

CTX WEIGHT WORKOUTS

"These workouts are a cross between an endurance and strength workout. Because we move so quickly from exercise to exercise, the endurance aspect kicks in. But, at the same time, we don't really use super light weight and we do provide brief breaks so the strength aspect kicks in too. And finally, because we spend a fairly short amount of strength training time and on just one muscle group per workout, the maintenance aspect kicks in. Depending on how strong you currently are and what your goals are, will determine what these workouts can do for you. If you are just coming back to weights after a long time off, you will get more than maintenance from these 10 minute workouts. However, if you have been working out with weights regularly, then this 10 minute per body part work out will provide enough stimulation to maintain your current strength for about two to three weeks.
