Plus, a single month is not a lot of time, and this program is not so much a loss program as it is a body recomposition program, so I'm thinking that I might give it more time before throwing in a bunch of steady state. This is just one opinion, though.

I appreciate the feedback! I totally agree with you on the program being more of a recomposition goal rather than loss. I wasn't planning on doing so much of steady state cardio., but more along the lines of intense HIIT cardio. with some plyo. days mixed in to shake things up a bit. I have been working out 5-6 days/week for almost a year now, so my body is definitely accustomed to that level of activity. It started as a weight loss thing, and since I'm pretty much at goal weight, I guess I'm just looking for that magic combo to deliver the "perfect" results. I love the NROL4W program and I don't want to do anything to mess with the sculpting results I hope to get, but I still feel like I need some sort of physical supplementation to aid in the overall fat store loss.
(Sorry, I tend to have a bit of O.C.D. on this kind of thing! )

Thank you so much for the comments and the encouragement to look at things a little more clearly!!
