CRF's Only Forums

I have went back to the gym after taking some time off( two years). I would say that is some time off!!

I started back with a my old weight program but I am not trying to build size. I want to train for racing hare scramblers and enduro's. So, I put together an endurance strength program. I have alot of high rep, lower weight lifting movements. And of course, cardio!

Well, I hate running and biking inside. I used the stair stepper and like that but it is pretty boring! One day, I was walking by the aroboics room, looked at the schedule and took a step class. I know! You think I am crazy!

Not only was I the only guy in the class, but I got a great work out. This female instructor put me through the ringer. Not only did I get a great workout, but i enjoyed the hour or so doing it.

Now, I am doing step once or twice a week along with my other workout activities. So, if your looking to change up your workout, I would suggest trying a class. The worst that can happen is.. you hate the class, you get really sore, and you get to look at women workout for an hour!

Try a spinning class next if you really want to work on your endurance.

the hardest workouts ive ever had are in my kickboxing class..

Every time i'm at the gym those days they have the spinning class just about every single person is drenched with perspiration.Its got to be pretty hard.
