Hi Cathe,
I posted the below "rotation suggestion?" question in the Open Discussion forum, but I specifically wanted to ask you more about a rotation based on my paleo/primal diet. I have multiple food allergies and the paleo/primal lifestyle is the easiest for me to follow due to mine and my son's allergies. I have lost a considerable amount of weight, but should not lose anymore. I'm finding (now at age 46) that less and more effective seems to be best for my body. I also find incorporating more active rest days helps as well. I'm overall happy with my body and health, but find I'm having a difficult time shedding the saddlebags (hormones???). Any suggestions or workout rotation recommendations you can offer would be so greatly appreciated! Love ALL you do!
Can anyone recommend a rotation that focuses on the lower body (specifically saddlebags!). I would still like to get a full body workout, but would like a rotation that targets more the lower body as that is where any little last bit of fat is trying to hang on! I follow a very clean diet since I have multiple food allergies and I eat a paleo/primal (some pastured/raw dairy) diet due to my allergies. I have been collecting numerous CATHE workouts and was following some of X-train before the holidays. Unfortunately, I only have a small window of opportunity to workout every day...30-45 minutes first thing in the morning at the most. I'm not looking to lose any more weight (lost over 90 lbs. already!) and my body fat percentage is good at 18%. I like to lift weights and kickbox, but I'm not coordinated for any of the step workouts (wish I were ). I also find I enjoy barre/pilates workouts a lot and I also try to incorporate yoga into my routine at least once a week. I am 46, 5'2 and weigh 105 lbs. I simply want to maintain my weight, gain muscle and lose this stubborn fat around my thighs and perhaps improve my posture (I broke my back years ago!). Would love to get some suggestions on workouts I could use to acheive this and maxamize my time. ~Thanks!!!
