Rep range for strength is 1-6. And you have to have rest periods. At least a minute. (But you can superset opposing muscle groups if you hate sitting around waiting)
http://www.aworkoutroutine.com/weigh...ing-intensity/ I have used Nia Shanks' programs and loved it. You can browse her programs on her website. There's the new NROL book Strong that just came out. Do you have a pull-up bar, suspension trainer, heavy bands, access to any gym equipment? Are your dumbbells heavy enough to go heavy? There can be a financial investment in starting to strength train at home, but... New toys to play with! |

Pure Strength is a great set! The "old" Cathe at her best.
The title is not inspiring, but a good strength building workout is Safe Strength Training for Osteoporosis Prevention by Susie Hathaway. She goes very slow and you can heavy up. She gives good form pointers. (I know you're a young whippersnapper, but I hope you wouldn't mind working out with a gray-haired instructor.) Her site: http://strengthtrainingforosteoporosis.com/dvds/ On Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Safe-Strength-.../dp/B00944V4KI I also like Kelly Coffey-Meyer's Muscle Up and Karen Gentz' X-TrainFit: Toning. http://www.videofitness.com/reviewsd...ew.php?id=4679 http://www.videofitness.com/reviewsd...ew.php?id=4855
