I'm still doing it! Best friend Dan and I are going to Planet Fitness every Tuesday and Thursday, and alternating work on legs and arms using the Body for Life system. Those workouts get followed up by Myoplex protein shakes, and we try to fit in cardio on the off-days. (That's not 100 percent successful on either of our parts.)
We are also doing at least 20, sometimes up to 35 minutes of cardio after the legs or arms. And we're working abs each time we go.
I've kind of backed away from my run-a-5K plan in favor losing some FAT first and toning muscle, but it's not off the table. I still want to do it, but I think in the long run, this weight and cardio combination will help me get healther and stay that way.
