Loving these workouts!

Bygingerloveron March 31, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

These workouts have given purpose to my strength training at the gym again! I have previous experience with weight lifting but had fallen off the wagon with fitness the past several years. I started back to the gym at the beginning of the year doing a "biggest loser" competition that my gym was hosting and was doing group workouts once a week with a personal trainer. Unfortunately, the trainer's workouts felt very introductory and there was no progressive direction from week to week...the exercises felt very random and no advice was given as to what exercises we should do outside of the once/week group training session. To add to the frustration, I couldn't even really construct my own program to follow in between sessions because I never knew which muscle groups the trainer was going to target at our next session. Around this time I listened to an interview with Lou on the HalfSizeMe podcast and decided to ditch the group training sessions, purchase the book and give the workouts a try. Sooo glad I did...I'm about halfway through Phase I Stage 2 and am loving the workouts! I have scheduled all my workouts and to get through the whole program once is going to take me until roughly Oct-Nov...which makes me highly motivated not to miss a workout because I don't want to get behind in the schedule!
