in Fitness and Exercise
While just getting back to MFP, I decided to try some different routines. I had been using Hip Hop Abs and P90X. When I strayed too far (3 months) I managed to gain back the 10 pounds I had lost. Now I'm back to square one..... Comcast Video On Demand has an exercise TV choice. I started doing the Jillian Michael's 30 day shred - level 1. It was hard, but not long enough. I was burning around 150 calories. So then I tried her Banish Fat/Boost Metabolism routine. WOW! Intense! 45 minutes plus 10 minutes of warm up/cool down. I burned 350 calories. So, for the last 2 days, I've been doing both of them - burning 500 calories. If you are looking for routines to try and you have Comcast On Demand, give it a try. It's free and a good way to preview routines before you buy them. Has any one else tried them?

Thanks,
Carol

    I've tried both workouts and yes they are awesome, especially first thing in the morning.

    Trouble Zones is a nice one too, a longer circuit routine while Banish Fat is major cardio.

    I did Boost Your Metabolism tonight and No More Trouble Zones last night. I love on demand. Try the Less is More Cardio. It is one insane half hour. Also Bob's (from Biggest Loser) Bootcamp is awesome too.

    I figure they get really obese people to lose a 100 pounds. It should work for my last 16 pounds.:bigsmile:

    Thanks all! Yep - tried the No More Touble Zone today. It is intense, but not as hard as the Boost Metabloism routine. Didn't burn as many total calories, but, burned more fat calories. Totally awesome workout. I'll have to try to other ones, too.....

    Just curious, when it say's I've burned 45% fat on my calorie count, what exactly does that mean? That I'm burning more fat? Or staying within my HR range more? When I do harder Cardio, I don't burn as much fat percentage.
