Default Beach Body Workout Question

I have been doing a workout plan at my gym called the beach body for about a month and a week also I have been dieting as well giving myself one free day a week to eat whatever. This workout consists of one day 15 minutes cardio and then on one day chest press x4 sets of 20 and shoulder press x4 sets of 20 and chest fly x4 sets of 20 then 15 minutes cardio then off to row 4 sets of 20 and shoulder fly 4 sets of twenty and lastly pull downs 4 sets of 20 then a 10 min cool down on cardio. This is one day the second day is the same setup with the cardio besides you do leg press x4 sets of 20 and leg extention x4 sets of twenty and bicep curl x4 sets of 20 and on the 2nd round after cardio again you do lunges x4 sets of 20 and triceps x4 sets of twenty and also hamstriing curls x4 sets of twenty and like the other day 10 min cool down lastly.


I work 12 hour shifts so most weeks I only get to workout 2 days a week sometimes 3. I have lost about 8 lbs on the scale but my body looks much slimmer. Do you think this workout is good for toning and do you think I am on schdeule to making good progress? I just figured that scale would have moved more by now. Maybe I am gaining muscle and thats why the scale isn't moving as much as I would like at first??

Any input I would appreciate!!!!

Don't measure your progress by what the scale says. Go by, A:how you feel and, B: how your clothing fits.

Muscle weighs more than fat and you are doing strength exercises. Just keep up the good work and focus on how you feel.
