When I talk about progress, it's in reference to both an injured and deconditioned state - I have a chronic knee issue that's plagued me since last summer and prevented me from running, and I gained quite a bit of weight from that (I whined about this repeatedly on just about every "did lowering intensity give better results" thread, I think - obviously for me, it did not ). I like kettlebells because of the interval cardio effect as well as strength+power, and barre has been important for joint stabilization and mobilization. Size-wise, I am much smaller than I was in the fall (pants falling off, been on clothes buying spree recently) but that is eating habits as much as anything else. I've gained tremendous core and overall strength. I'm not back to running, sadly, but when I drop in on judo classes I am super pleased I can still handstand/somersault to standing, pick up guys, etc, even without doing judo regularly. So that's what I mean about not wanting to lose progress. However, subbing in TLT for KB for a while might be OK. I will definitely keep doing barre. It's been hugely rehab-by for me. And I should mention I do some sort of yoga nearly every day - either my own yoga, class, or Jill's YTUAH.
