Crossfit - The Beast

With a 95 pound barbell do: Deadlift, Power Clean, Front Squat, Push Press, Overhead Squat, Squat, Press Behind the Neck, lower bar to floor under control. That's ONE rep. Do as many as possible in 20 minutes.

xotique, let's clarify what toning really is. Toning if actually building muscle and losing fat. Building some muscle mass is what gives you the "toned" look. If you don't believe me check out LadyC, gymgirl, minime, and other progress pics.

You don't need to worry about "bulking up" or getting too big or anything like that. You are female, right? Very few women have the genetics to get big and bulky without hormonal supplementation.

I think it's better to show a picture of what I want:
http://www.bellegraynews.com/images/...inna-us-5l.jpg

She has muscle, but she still looks feminine. I really don't know how to get a body like hers though, that's why I ask. I don't want anything more than that. I definately don't want overly muscular arms, either.

The weights I'm talking about are dumbells.. if anyone needed to know.

Basically, this is what it is..

I'm 5'3", 123lbs. I'm slim but I want to be fit rather than just slim. So, I'm trying to lose 13lbs at the moment (I'm on a no carb diet), but with working out I really need some help. What do you think I should do to get something similar to Lisa Rinna? (There's more pics on google..)

I wanted to get a gym membership but, after inquiring I just can't afford it right now. So, I'm resorting to you guys! Help, please.

I tired it last night, xotiqe, and it might be a very good workout for you as far as toning and fat loss are concerned. And you could do it with your 15 pound dumbbells.

It is just a light hearted thought!!!
