Does anyone use this strength training program? I am a bit skeptical about the no cardio during the first few weeks.

    I'm at the end of phase 2 in this program.  I have really enjoyed it.  The first phase was a little boring for me because I had already been strength training so I just increased the weight and added some other exercises here and there depending on what muscle group(s) I would be working on that day.  I also continued to do cardio even though the program says not to for the first phase.  Again, this is because I had been training for awhile already and I need to do about 60 min of cardio 5 days a week to help me reach my goals.  I have definitely noticed results with this program.  My arms are looking fantastic!  My strength has significantly increased and my body fat and weight are not drastically but steadily decreasing.  I am really happy with this program so far!!

    Are you following the eating plan as well? Or just eating clean in general?

    Rachel Cosgrove doesn't want you doing cardio either. She thinks that steady state cardio conditions your body to hold onto weight. You can read more about that here:

    When I started Cosgrove's program, I gave up cardio for a bit. Nothing catostrophic happened but I missed it. Its more social than lifting and a great mood booster for me.
