What next for a split routine?

[deanie]

Hi all. I hope you can help me decide what Cathe dvd to get next. I have decided to try a split routine and don't know which to get. I already have PUB and PLB which I love but would like to try another series. Between GS, PS, and S&H which is the best and why? Is the Ctx series worthwile?I want a change in my routine and to define my muscles. These are the Cathe dvd's I already have: Intensity series, BB series with the timesaver dvd, Low Max, PH(video) and the classics. I can only pick one series(hard!) because of budget constraints. Thanks, Deanie

I love the gymstyle dvd's and they are so challenging. The gymstyle legs is perfect for strength and endurance. The upper body portions are amazing. I have really gotten very defined and there is a lot of variety. With that said, I do also love the ctx series. There is some great cardio and is great for people who don't have a lot of time. The upper body portion is good, but still not has challenging as the gymstyles. The leaner legs on this dvd is also great. It is a no-nonsense lower body workout and it is pretty heavy. If I had to choose for just weight dvd's I would go with the Gymstyles. If you are also looking for some cardio and legs go with the ctx series.

Another vote for Gym Styles. PS and Gym Styles are somewhat similar in their "gym style" feel, but GS is almost like an updated version of PS in a way, with some new twists.

S&H is good, but it is more limited in usefulness (ie: you could do a 4-5 week rotation with GS, but going that long with S&H would be too intense). Also, I'm not fond of S&H lower body.

Thanks guys! I think I will go with Gym Style. Katherine, I'm happy you answered me,I have read alot of the forums and I find myself usually agreeing with you, or you give good advise that I try to follow. I am doing BB series this month and need more of a weight challenge. I'm looking forward to trying the GS! Then I think I'm done buying for a while- till the next presale! It's so hard not to buy everything!! Now I'm off to find a rotation for Nov. that includes the dvds I have and GS!
