I discovered the MAX Workouts program while searching the internet for interval training programs.  My goal at the time was to raise my anaerobic threshold and increase my cardio.  I have been physically active for most of my life, running marathons in my early 40's and cycling since 1988.  Mountain biking until about three years ago and then road cycling. I joined a cycling club in Ashland, Oregon and now ride two to three times a week.with a group of club riders whose average age is a 15 to 20 years younger than I and I found myself struggling to keep up.  In addition I realized that I had lost a significant amount of my upper body muscle tone and mass over the last twenty years, so it looked like I only had two options.  One was to lose weight and get more fit and the second options was to quit. I rejected the last option and signed up for the MAX Workouts  

During my first 12 weeks on the program which I started on February 12th and ended on May 12th, I lost 10 lb and reduced my waist size by 4 inches.  I found that I was still not where I wanted to be so I started the program again on May 13th and ended August 11th.  I am still not where I want to be, so I will continue with the basic program.  I lost an additional 8 lb and an additional 3 inches off of my waist.  Although I have not increased my muscle mass a great deal, I am now much stronger and my overall fitness is much greater. One of the drawbacks of loosing a significant amount of weight at my age is ending up with a lot of loose skin. 

I would highly recommend the MAX Workouts program to every one who wants to be fit and trim regardless of age. For those in the prime of life, make the program a lifetime commitment and you just might end up in your later years with a lot less loose skin.
