Neither will training like Mr (or Miss) Universe turn you into that slender, waif-like running machine.") what will continuing this routine do for me? hey Craig, im 17 and im on the track team on my school,our work out is 2 laps followed by weight lifting(everyone does the same work out). i read your article about different work outs (“If you train yourself like a distance runner, you ain’t gonna wind up looking like a bodybuilder.

Thanks. I've actually been an avid exerciser for the past 10 years...including completing many races and a marathon. I've embarked on different workout programs and am now a "gym-goer" doing a step class and strength class on Mondays, cycling on Tuesdays and Thursdays, possible short run on Wednesdays, a walk on Fridays, and kickboxing and strength training on Saturdays. I throw in a Pilates or Yoga class in every now and again. I rest on Sundays. I'm a clean eater and enjoy the occasional treat. At 29, and with a BMI of 22.5% or so, I get discouraged at the lack of change. My thighs are still measuring at 24 to 24.5 inches. I just don't get why. I've followed what you've mentioned in your article, but I have not seen change and am EXTREMELY discouraged. I sometimes think, "what's the point?!" I really apply myself in the classes and consider myself the "class nerd" because of how much I get into it. lol....but no change. Any words of advice would be GREATLY appreciated! <br/><br/>Thanks in advance,<br/>t. Great read. Thanks.

How do you pick a good one? Makes it difficult when the instructors actually have exercise physiology degrees and give you the impression that they know what is best for you.
