Tracey and Debbie, thank you so much. It was a car wreck. I can't even explain how hard it has been.
Tracey, I just got burnt out. I started to dread doing 30 reps of commandos and 60 jump lunges. I'm doing Edge Booty Extreme 2 now and my dvds are a nice change from the paper workouts. Just follow the pretty lady and do what she does. I didn't find bbg to be that great for my lower body as I find a mix of rep ranges works best for my body vs JUST endurance, so I was always adding in an extra leg day. I must say bbg hands down gives the best abs EVER though. I may have to take a look at Zuzka's site. I like her workouts as well. And you are so generous, thank you for the offer! About the app, I am not into paying for content I don't get to keep. Especially $30 a month for an app. It doesn't let you pause your weeks if you have to stop for any reason, which is no bueno. It's a 3 month minimum I believe. What I have heard is that it is 2 14 minute circuits, instead of the 4 7 min ones. The exercises are the same. A lot of girls are disappointed. |

I'm so sorry to hear about your husband, edensmom. I am really glad to hear the BBG community supported you so strongly -- that is great. It seems like the Tone It Up girls have a pretty good community, too.
This thread makes me want to do some Zuzka! |

Maybe I will do Zuzka today! I've not worked out yet. Another change in my life in the past year is that I went back to college and I have SO MUCH READING to do! Definitely need to get in my workout this afternoon. |

Thank you, ladies.
In other news I did a Zuzka workout today and honestly after 19 months of bbg I don't really find them similar. I think Zuzka workouts will build more muscle - a GOOD thing!!! Also she does not rep you to death and it looks like there is TONS of variety on the site. Definitely a bargain as well. Both workouts are metabolic in nature but I think Zuzka's are more well-rounded as far as hitting all muscle groups, especially upper body. Not that I don't love bbg - I lost 20 lbs doing bbg and cleaning up my diet. |

I'm thinking of doing bbg2. My goal is fat loss which I know is more diet, but in doing that thru diet I realized I most likely will not be able to build alot of "new" muscle. I consider myself fairly muscular already (more of an endo-meso). I don't want to get "mushy" doing bbg2. Do I "need" incorporate more straight strength training, ie maybe one upper body and/or total body weights day a week? I am fairly certain I will not be following the rotation to a T only b/c my work schedule/sleep schedule is highly variable so I have to take each workout day as it comes. (For background, I use Cathe 90% of the time. I just finished doing Butt Bible for about 2 months, I'm dabbling with ICE and EBE2 right now so I don't think jumping into bbg2 will be an issue).
TIA! |
