    Oh another thing i am not sure this applies to you but all girls out there step away from the barbie weights and get down and dirty with some dumbbells!

    :noway: Chalene extreme don't do barbie weights...... It does not have many reps and the weight lifting workouts have absolutely no cardio to it.... :sad:

    so it has you lifting 100-200 pounds per rep on the compound movements after a few months? I'm genuinely curious.

    No it does not - it has you lift whatever weights YOU can after a few months....It just so happen that I did stronglifts for three months until it bored me to death, and then some other dumbell stuff after that before I started Chalean - so I can do compound movements with between 60-100lbs.... Pure lower body stuff with more....

    If you are genuinely curious, go google that specific program....It is not cardio - it does have separate cardio dvd's (as she so wisely believe that a mix of cardio and strengh is good) but the main part of her program is strengh...I have not used the cardio dvd's yet, because I like running for cardio....
    It's a good program for beginners and experienced lifters alike, because you work with whatever weight is heavy for YOU....
