Hammer and Chisel revisited

I've been using the original rotation now for two weeks, and for some reason I enjoy it a lot more than the first time. All workouts are just so well designed, not a second wasted. I wish they had a H&C part two.

I really think so. I'm very very happy that I bought the set. If you like strength training, you can get a lot out of it. It is very easy to modify as well.

Haha. I canceled my BB when I realized that and bought H&C.

It took me a long time to purchase but I'm glad I did. The workouts are really good. The only negatives for me are the warm ups/cool downs - I wish they were longer.

I did 3 weeks of the H&C rotation but found that it was too much for me. My legs were feeling like lead, the workouts hit the legs hard every day. When I revisit H&C I plan to alternate the workouts with an extra day of cardio here and there.

Has anyone come up with a H&C rotation that is more balanced?

Does anyone know how the impact is in H&C? How about 21 day Fix? (Christmas is coming up).

H&C is mostly weight lifting program. There are some impact in the cardio, but easily modified.

I re-visit this system. Enjoying it much better for the second time. I am doing Hammer separate from Chisel now. I think I like this set up better. I was really feeling beat up with the sugested Hammer AND Chisel rotation. Now I feel like I have 2 systems instead of one!
