Re: Body for life

[Guest guest]

Hi Lynn...

There are in fact a few things called Body For Life..

One of them involves a diet and another involves what

I do which is an excercise plan.. Not sure how many

other things there are out there with regards to the

program..

How the concept of it is to eat right and excercise..

The Body for Life excercise part involves doing a

challenge which last 13 weeks.. You will work out 3 to

4 times and week to your total workouts in the 13

weeks will amount to 52 plus workouts..

I did 3 challenges and worked out 5 times a week..

Each challenge is very different.. but involves the

use of weights.. They also encourage you to to do

cardio work on your between days.. Obviously I had to

double up some days to get both workouts in... and

keep my pace up..

My first challenge was strengthening my major muscle

groups.. Second challenge was now working on some of

my smaller muscle groups and my third challenge

involved endurance training..

With endurance insted of doing single sets you do two

different sets one right after another and take a one

minute break and then go at it again.. These are more

commonly refered to as supersets..
