5 Week Rotation Covering September 2010


September's rotation is starting a little earlier and ending a little later. I am making it a 5 week rotation. Essentially, I have built the rotation around Amy Bento's two newest workouts. I am adding her two sculpting workouts All Pump Xtreme and Slo Mo Challenge. Sadly, I have had these two workouts almost two years and have yet to do them.
Well September 2010, I will be doing them.
This month I will be working out in parts or splits for my sculpting workouts. I am not a fan of working out this way. It seems to take up a lot of room in a rotation and a lot of time in general. However, for the next 5 weeks I am going to deviate from what I normally like to do; to get in workouts that I have been meaning to do.
Rotation breakdown:
Sunday - 3 mile Run
Monday - Upper Body workouts - muscle groups will vary
Tuesday - Amy Bento Step
Wednesday - Legs (Mostly) I think one workout has abs and another workout has shoulders added.
Thursday - Amy Bento Hi Lo
Friday - Upper Body workouts - muscle groups will vary
Saturday - Rest
Along with adding Amy Bento 3 day split workouts, I will be adding Cathe 3 day split workouts as well.
Wish me luck....

    Your blog is really good Saundra, love all your reviews of fitness dvds. I have quite a few of the ones you have including the Amy Bento dvds (I love the music in her dvds). I've only discovered Cathe's dvds recently and I think I'm going to really like the challenge of her workouts. Your rotation for September looks great.

    Hi Saundra,

    Getting out of your comfort zone is a good thing! You can do this!

Image
The Pro-Form 600 LT Treadmill is HSN and Pro-Form 2011 model treadmill. Each year HSN brings out a new Pro-Form model to sale. On the HSN website the treadmill is called Pro-Form Step Up Personal Trainer Treadmill. The price of this treadmill is $699.95 and the Shipping & Handling is free. I have had this treadmill since May. Assembly is required. It took me and another about an hour, maybe a little less to put it together. The instructions are fairly detail and everything went together as it should. I had the 2007 model of this treadmill, but I like the advertised upgrades so much I decided to get this one. Pre-Program Work outs The 2011 model comes with 16 Pre-program workouts. Of the 16, 4 are distance, 5 are timed, and 7 are calorie burned workouts. The distance workouts are 1 mile, 5K, 10K, and 1/2 Marathon. The time workouts are 20 min, 25 min, 30 min, 45 min The calorie workouts that are broken down by time are 20 min, 25 min, 30 min, 40 min, 45 min, and two 60 min

Tony Horton P90X Plyometrics - Thoughts

Image
Plyometrics .  This means you are jumping. This means high impact. Although there were some none or low-impact exercises. The workout is about 59 minutes. The warm is about 9 minute and 30 seconds. Like the other P90X workouts that I have done, Plyometrics uses rounds as well. There are two rounds in which you are doing 4 exercises. The exercise are performed for either 30 or 60 seconds. After each round you get a water break. At the end of the workout, there is a bonus round that includes three exercises that were sports specific. The workout concludes with a 5 minute stretch and cool down. I am including a worksheet of the exercises. This is my least favorite of the P90X workouts that I have done thus far. Plyometrics just felt long.  Although I did think the soundtrack was very good and I burned a lot of calories. Equipment - towel, heart rate monitor 3 stars

21 Day Fix Disc 1 - Review

Image
Disc 1 of the 21 Day Fix Workout System features the following workouts: Total Body Cardio Fix Upper Fix Lower Fix Pilates Fix 10 Minute Fix For Abs Overall, all workouts follow a similar pattern which is a series of rounds containing two exercises each and you repeat the round before moving on.You perform each exercise for roughly a minute and you get a 15 to 20 second rest between the exercises. Also, like most Beachbody systems, each workout contains the countdown timer in the lower right corner.  These workouts also contain subtitles that tell you which exercises you are doing and it tells you for how long and/or how many reps.  Love this feature. Total Body Cardio Fix , Upper Fix , and Lower Fix contain the same warm up moves and cool down moves.  Roughly the warm up and cool down runs around 3 minutes per workout.  Also all three of these workout use weights.  Pilates Fix is made up of a series of exercises as oppose to rounds.  Depending on the exercise you will
