I wouldn't blame Tonique too much for the soreness. I think any time you challenge your body in a new way, you get that. I mean, you could have tried Lauren Brooks kettlebells and felt as sore the next day. Muscles seem to adapt very specifically to the movement you ask them to do. If you are okay with the level of difficulty and are enjoying the workout, you will want to continue, and your muscles will adapt and you won't get as sore.
If you want more variety, try out the beach project short workouts that Sylwia has posted on her you-tube channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/ToniqueFitness/videos I like the beach project workouts, they seem easier than the sculpt downloads that you bought from her website. Of those, I like sculpt 2 and cardio sculpt 2 the best, because they are mostly no impact. |

desie - thank you for posting that link - I hadn't checked out her youtube channel in quite some time and I just watched her Interview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2P9TGjo6wv4 and it is soo amazing! She is such a great person with so much passion and such a big heart - just awesome. The interview shares quite a bit of information on her workouts and how to work up to them (doing fewer reps etc.).

Thanks Cheryl and everyone for your encouragement. My diet has not been the best - the extreme cold and everyday grind leaves little will power right now - that I normally have. I really do like Tonique and believe that I will find the groove. Seems like slower is better to gain results - and I AM determined. Like I wrote before I have been doing TA year 1 exclusively- so I think the squats and lunges were a bit of a shock to my body and it has let me know it!
I look forward to posting back later in the week - to see if I can overcome this workout hurdle! |
