S&H w/ ME results

I've just finished a rotation of strength only (S&H). I'm thinking of adding in Muscle Endurance once a week. Anybody have good results doing something similar?

I want to maintain the mass I've built (maybe add even a little more), but really want to see the definition I had when doing primarily endurance. I eat cleanly and get enough cardio, so that's not an issue as far as the definition goes.

Thanks!

I did a rotation with S&H and ME in December. I had great results with it. But one week I did S&H, and ME, and the next S&H and SS or PP and then back to S&H and ME the next week. I only did this for 3 weeks because I never do S&H for more than three weeks at a time.

I should do that rotation again! I enjoyed it as well as reaped good results!

I have done this before. I did it for 4 weeks. I did S&H 3 days then did a cardio abs only day. Then did one day of upper ME and one day of Lower ME. I got nice definition doing this rotation. I am sure you will like it.

Thanks for the feedback! I just got ME and have done it twice. It's so much fun! I love S&H and will probably always incorporate either that series or the Pyramids, but ME is a nice change of pace. I think I like it a little better than SS.
 
I really don't want to sound stupid, but what is PP and SS? I'm trying to think of all of Cathe's workouts and I'm having a brain freeze!!

Thanks,

PP=Push & Pull, SS=SuperSets from the Blast Series.

I just started ME and I'm really enjoying it too Kara! Your idea of using it with S&H sounds excellent.
 
Sheila!

Just curious what you did exactly. Would you do, say, Legs and Shoulders one day, cardio the next and then ME or PH?

RE: Sheila!

Thanks, Sheila. I'm going to give this a try. S&H is my favorite series and I need to start incorporating a little more cardio into my routine. I have a hard time following set rotations, only because my work schedule is not set in stone, so I need to able to "tweak" it as needed. This looks great!
 
RE: Sheila!

Sheila,

Which you you (or anyone else reading this) say is better for building a little mass (especially in upper body)...S&H or the PUB? I own PUB and I love it, but have only had it a week. Wondering if I shoul dinvest in S&H too, or try this one for a few weeks first.
 
RE: Sheila!

s&h is imo better for building mass.But the way I do pub will put some muscles on also.I do the heaviest wts all the way through just decrease the reps so I start 12-10-8 (maybe 6)-than whatever I can manage which is usually 3-5.But I also use pub as endurance doing the exercises straight through with the lite wt example chest press I will do 15lbs 12-10-8-10-12 and than do chest fly same way.I also vary the tempo 12 reg time 10 2up one down 8 and 10 reg time 12 1up 3 down.I don't change wt(unless I can't manage it ) or take breaks in this version so it is like power hour for me.This tape is so versitale(sp) you can really make it your own and be creative with it.
