Awesome!!!
I got to try my new KCM today!!! I loved it! I will post a breakdown later today or tonight.
I also posted the following in the GD thread questionning KCM's form (which, IMO, is sounding more and more like a Cathe thread every day, LOL!), but I thought I'd post it here too in case not everyone is following both threads:
Just wanted to pop in with an "average Joe" opinion here. I did the premixes using floor ab work for the active rests for both workouts this morning. I enjoyed them very much. I didn't feel one move was unsafe, and I did them exactly as KCM did. I think she explains things well, and she does offer modifications. For the record, I used 15s and 10s for the Chest/Back/Leg workout, and 15s, 10s, and 8s for the Biceps/Triceps/Shoulders workout.
I'm pretty confident of my form w/weight lifting. I'm no certified trainer or expert of any kind, but I think I know enough about lifting weights to know what is and isn't safe for me. I think as long as you don't have any pre-existing conditions and you are mindful, listening to your body, and controlling the weight (rather than letting it control you), you'll be fine with these moves. Do anything that seems like it might be risky for you using a low weight to start. If it tweaks or feels strange, stop.
I don't think there's anything here that is going to injure a person if they use their head.
All in all, I loved the workouts. Thorough, quick, and KCM keeps things moving so I never felt bored. I'm a big Kelly fan, and I think this is another winner of a workout from her!
