This was the Triple H one, correct?

[CharM]

Yes, it's the Triple H workout.

I'm probably going to do upper body 1 tomorrow. I'll update this post (it won't bump the thread) with an exercise list.

Upper Body 1
2 sets : 8, 12 reps
chest press
Single arm row
Seated on the floor - lateral shoulder raises
Bicep curls that work the forearms (i can't remember this, but i think it's a regular curl, but then palms down on the down motion, or I'm way off. Ha)
Sprinter sit ups

I didn't do it. I suck. i absolutely could not force myself out of bed this morning, but i got the exercises right, only forgetting the sit ups

Dela, I owe you a thank you for bringing this dvd to my attention! I'd not been enjoying my workouts lately, doing just whatever so that I can put it on my calendar instead of seeing a zero. But this has made me want to exercise again. I like it a lot.

- i can go heavy because there are only two sets (3 for lower) with not a ton of reps, so I can focus on what I'm doing and not when it's gonna end.
- the exercises are basic, but I'm not bored
- the workouts are short, but if you go heavy, you'll feel it's enough. I keep getting sore, that's not typical
- great tips on form, which are things I know, but he does a good job of explaining before and during the exercises
- i don't normally like my cardio to have a strength component, but since it's short, i tack it on after doing Upper 1. And I take shorter breaks in between, which keeps my heart rate up

We'll see how long I can keep it up.

** the above refers to upper 1, lower, and cardio. I've only done shoulders and biceps of upper 2, can't comment on the rest

Glad you are liking it so much! Funny, I just did lower body last night

I agree with all your points especially about his form pointers!

[CharM]

I did lower this morning and I'm already sore!

This is the Triple H workout? If I can only get one between the Tripe H or Stepanie's dvd which one should I get?

I have both, but can only do the leg workouts, warm up and stretching because of a shoulder problem.

Triple H is a heavier more strength based workout, Stephanie uses lighter weights going for a more circuit type cardio routine. Her leg workout is a nice little add on, but I needed to run through it twice to feel like I got a nice little leg workout.

I feel Triple H. is better on camera too, Stephanie is good, just not as good.

My preference goes to Triple H. but I also tend to always prefer slower strength moves over faster cardio/circuit.

I really wish I could do his upper body work, I feel this one dvd would make for a great full body workout.
