I'd love to see a new video that has a great workout combining cardio and weight lifting. I noticed it’s been a while since Zuzana has shared a weight lifting routine with us.

I read about using weights, but I wonder if rubber bands has the same effect? And would you then Zuzana make any exercise with rubber bands? Thanks, hugs, Paty Hi.

I really think she is 100% perfect women. Ok so now my question. I lift weight and try to build lean muscle as much as i can. How can i add this kind of routines (HIT) to my daily workout without them affecting my lifting routines? For example, If tomorrow is my leg day and i do Zuzanas HIT training today, i wont be able to put much weight at my day leg tomorrow! this could happen with all muscles... Any idea? @Frederick

The main reason why women cannot "bulk up" like a man is that they simply do not have the testosterone to do it...it doesn't matter if you train really hard, lift very heavy weight, eat a lot of protein, etc. Sure, you will be muscular than the average woman. But you will not look like a man. The reason many female bodybuilders look like men is because they use steroids to get that way. It's pretty much impossible to achieve that look naturally if you're female. Females just don't have the testosterone as I said. If you look at natural female bodybuilders, even the ones that are quite strong and can deadlift 250 lbs and squat 225...they're not big. And it took them a lot of hard work to get that way, they didn't gain what little mass they have as easily as their male counterparts.
