Whew today was a killer, wasn’t as bad as last week but still hard as heck. This stuff really hits my hip flexors hard. Going to take me a while to build my wind up about 3/4’s the way through I’m toast. But it’s going to be great fun after about a month when I get my running lungs back.

Well this week felt a lot better than last, getting in the groove on the new routine. I wrote my reps down today so I can try to make some increases in each week. I’m still amazed at how much of a pump I’ve been getting from this.

Today was a good day, our first day of legs and it was killer. Did several exercises that were new to me always like that. Going to have to miss kenpou saturday as we lost that DVD, gonna get one before next week though.

After the first week I’ll have to say my impressions of the program have definelty changed. At first I thought it was going to be a cream puff routine, but now I’ll have to say it is very intense, you can make it as hard as you want by how strict you do the exercises. I really like the cardio part of it. My knees have kept me from running but I can really get into the plyometrics and it’s easy on my knees. The first week was just getting use to all the new exercises now next week we know what to expect. Going to try to start keeping up with my numbers, it’s going to be hard on this routine simply because you’re going so fast and so many things, we’ll see next week.

Well thought today was going to be a breeze, being yoga and all. Well we were wrong. Was the first time 4 in our group ever did yoga and short story it kicked our tails. We were drenched after this and didn’y even do the whole thing, I believe the whole thing was 90 minutes and we throwed in the towel at 60 minutes. We definelty know where our weakness is now.

Today was a fun day after the Plyometrics from tuesday. I definelty like the the weight days better than the cardio days. Didn’t write any of my weights down today, really don’t have much time during the workout. Hoping by next week after I know more about what’s coming I’ll be able to get some numbers down. Today was a good day though, several exercises I’ve never seen before. All in all was a very fun day.

Well today was day #2 and I’m sore as heck from mondays workout. Today was 60 minutes of plyometrics and boy oh boy could I tell it’s been several months since I’ve done any form of cardio. I was extremely winded about half way through, and was wringing wet. When they say you need a towel it’s no joke.

So far I’m really liking the program it’s very challenging. In the past I’ve always dreaded any type of cardio simply for the fact that it bores me but with this the 60 minutes went by pretty fast. Your doing so my different things it keeps it very fun and the time passes quickly. One things for sure we’ve got a long ways to go but the journey is gonna be fun.

Gonna have to break out the camera one day this week, because there’s no doubt after 3 months of this you’re not going to be able not to be lean as heck.

Wednesday is shoulders and arms so I’ll be able to put some numbers up.

Rode my bike for 15 miles this morning.
Well the good thing about being sick this week is that it helped me make my weight just in time, last couple of days my calories have prob been close to 1200 a day and I could tell when I stepped on the scale today, 180Lbs.:)

Was a good arm workout today and a good end the the BFL challenge. I really messed up this past winter bulking up putting on way too much fat, didn’t get to where I wanted but it’s a start. I’m somewhat satisfied with my progress but still wanting more. Legs, chest arms and back are okay but still need to drop some BF to get them abs coming through. Guess that’s gonna be my gaol for the rest of the summer, maybe get down to 175Lbs. and see how things look.

I didn’t get to take any pics today, going to get them tom.
