Starting tomorrow this will be my weekly routine.

FRIDAY : 30 day shred, ripped in 30, 30+ min of cardio
SATURDAY : 30 day shred
SUNDAY : 30 day shred, ripped in 30, 30+ min of strength
MONDAY : 30day shred, ripped in 30,30+ min of cardio
TUESDAY : 30day shred, ripped in 30, 30+ min of strength
WEDNESDAY : 30 day shred, ripped in 30, 30+ min of cardio
THURSDAY : 30 day shred, ripped in 30, 30+ min of cardio.

My goal is to lose inches, tone up & drop a few lbs.
I ALWAYS eat back exercise calories. How many net calories should I set mfp to? I currently have it set to 1450. Too little, too much?
I am 5'7, 18, & in the 140s.
Feel free to add me & help me out. Please.

    That's a lot of cardio. I now JM uses weights, but they're so high rep, it's more cardio than strength, Rally. I don't know about ripped in 30, though. Is it higher weights, lower reps? You need a good heavy lifting program or you might lose muscle and end up "skinny fat". I'm there now, and wish I'd lifted heavier earlier.

    "30 min strength" is very vague. What exactly do you mean by this?
