im starting on a new 8 weeks of the FT fitness program..

they switched around my body part days but kept me on the same reps for the most part.. I know after awhile we are suppose to change up our routine because are muscles get used to what we are doing..is this change in the days enough or should i adjust the reps..they have me on 16,12,10,8 mostly..

We should conduct ourselves not as if we ought to live for the body, but as if we could not live without it.

Velasca, i am not an expert, but I would say any kind of change to the routine would be effective to a point. Sometimes I like to add a set of push-ups for bench. Or exchange barbell shoulder presses for dumbbell presses. I think the more you change when it is time to change the more effecient it is to your body.

I would suggest keeping the reps and upping your weight.

Keep doing what you have on the plan. It's specificaly for you. And do keep trying to go with more resistance.

A little discipline at the table and at the gym might help reduce that belly!
