I do a power sculpt class at my health club. It's a great way to make sure I work all my muscle groups, and it also adds some variety to my workout routine. For cardio, I run three times a week for at least 5 miles.
hi there, being very busy with work & family i left 3 exercises for myself: stiff-legged deadlift, full front squats and overhead press - all in about 15 mins.... or sometimes just push our mazda mpv for min or two around a driveway - helps to remain some strength and fitness))))
Circuit training with a mixture of cardio and weight lifting is the best way to burn fat and sculpt simultaneously. If you are looking just to sculpt or build muscle, try the typical "cardio, then weight lifting" which most men prefer.
I have done so for years and have written up a routine that I have found has provided both clients and me personally with great results. I specify what I recommend for both male and female depending on what your goals are. You should check it out and see if it is of any help. Best wishes.
I do a mixture of different workouts - tabata training, kettlebells, swiss ball, classic kickboxing and I'm soon getting a pole so will incorporate some poledancing.
The kettle bell workouts can count as lifting weights - I build muscle quite quickly for a woman, so end up looking quite beefy if I do too much weight lifting (as I found out a few years ago!).

How should I create a workout routine?

I am a female and workout regularly doing weights and cardio. I want to lose weight and sculpt...my muscles. Should I be drinking a carb and protein shake (or just protein shake) after I do a weights workout. Or will this just be bulking me up.

No matter how much weight I lose, or how much cardio and strength training I do my legs never seem to get smaller. I lost 35lbs last year and lost 4 inches around the top and 5 inches around the bottom. I know that I have "lady hips" and I'm fine with that, it's my thighs I can't seem to...
