A really good aerobic workout with 50 minutes of all kinds of squats, dips, lunges, bends, and also working on the back with chinups... yes, I can do those, with one half foot on a chair for some stability... WHEW!!!!
Sweated my youknowwhatoff !!!! and had a yummy recovery drink.
Does anyone else here do a aerobic workout where you're really getting your heartrate up and putting out a good sweat?
I've read and seen some info about "recovery drinks" and I can tell you how to make a yummy one , drink it within 30 mins after the workout to replenish your protein and carbs and you won't crash and it will do your body good! I've made tonite's with banana.. mmm .. and last night had blackberry. Strawberry is good too.
Hang in there everybody!!!

when I am not so bothered by the gout.. I do something similar to what you do..
I use the Sean Burch Hyperfitness program.
He mixes things up a lot but does not break it down to body part days like your program.

with his all you need to buy the book.. although they do now have Cd's available which are not required but many people would find it helpful to see some of the exercises vs just reading the descriptions.
with maybe some exceptions the important thing is that you find something that works for you.. and you do it.
I work at a bicycle shop that also sells quality exercise equipment... and people are always asking is which piece is the best.
" the one you like and will use" us what we answer.
