doing good, just finished plyo, feeling really good. already seeing a difference everywhere. pretty crazy! it makes me want to work hard and sweat more every workout. glamor muscles tomorrow. should be exciting!
good luck everyone.

wheres everybody gone, well done gc for yesterday i for some reason struggled a bit but still enjoyed it a lot so finished it... getting better with the rock star move and the bunny hop (though only a small hop).... looking forward to tonight.. should be good i reckon... godluck everybody hope everyone is still carrying on with it

I'm still here. I missed most of last week because I was travelling like crazy. But I've started back yesterday (with Plyo of all things) and I should go pretty much uninterrupted the rest of the way.

Since I was pretty much absent last week, I think I'm gonna do Week 2 instead of doing the recovery week.

just finished Shoulders & Arms. Strangely enough, I love the side tri rises.

Thats crazy JJ you're mental, nah really i enjoy them too only on the right arm more though... how did you find the ab ripper yesterday... i finally managed to do oblique v ups about 8 on each side with not so great form i dont think...

does any ones tail bone hurt during most of the abs work, mainly during the first two and the mason twist?

Check out my 30 days pics on the before and after forum. Topic my 30 days results. Comments (good or bad welcome)

it hurts my lower back more than my tailbone.

I did yoga last night, felt i did better with some poses but others quite bad... i have to say i struggle to keep the leg straight it bends about 20 degrees i fight hard but just cant fight hard enough....

for the first time i felt my abs were working during yoga belly 7... makes me think that i havent been doing them right

i think i might just padd up the butt area when i do ab ripper tonite see what happens...

GC my lower back hurts too...

just did Legs & Back ... this was my first time doing the DVD in "Music & Cues" instead of "Normal" mode. I did a lot better not having to listen to Tony so much.

i love love LOVE KenpoX

you and me both. i like it alot

I still feel quite silly doing it even more so then plyo...probbaly because i do look like i am out of my depth with the moves and look like a retard doing them... if this is mr miyagi training then i defintely dont think i will be ready for any kinda wax on wax off during a fight... did finish it the other day though... well hello rest week! i hope its hardcore cos after the last 3 weeks i dont want to stop...

Just checking in with my Oct 18/19 group. Seeing how everyone is doing. I have been mia from the boards. But still bringing it. I was wondering if anyone has been going up on their weights the first 3 weeks. I found I wasn't feeling the burn at the end of my reps.

Also wanted to see if anyone was getting better at the abs. The first two times I couldn't do all the reps. Now I am able to do all the reps. Seeing that difference already. Also im not really hurting the day after my ab workouts. Anybody else ?

Hey ChewChew (ha!)

Instead of recovery, I'm actually making up for week 2 this week. I definitely need some heavier dumbbells though. I might go to Play It Again sports this weekend to see what I can find.

I just really started doing Ab Ripper X last week. I was discouraged the first go 'round by not being able to do many reps coupled with my tailbone hurting. I actually discovered that the issue with my tailbone was actually caused by the waistband on the basketball shorts I was wearing. I have a slight slight soreness to my abs, but nothing like I know it can/should be.

Kenpo had me good and sore though

recovery week over. week 5 is up

Hello, I started Oct 18th, haven't had time to post.

Going into Phase 2, I ditched the bands and went with the bowflex selecttech dumbells. Not cheap, but I did my first workout with them today and am glad I switched. I couldn't get to the point of failure with the bands, and didn't like the way the resitance felt.

OH MY!!! Muscle Confusion is RIGHT!
I thought I had gotten stronger.. Today's workout kicked my butt. I my arms feel like noodles.

I had a lot of trouble with the Plange push-ups but the Pike presses were great.

One-arm push-ups = fail! LoL

JJ definetly feel your pain there... the pushup and loads of them were pretty difficult especially to keep up that kinda pace... i think i did about 10 to 16 on each of those different types to start with... got to one arm push up and the plyo pushups numbers went straight down to about 8 or less.... that definetly kicked my arse....

by the way its day 30 today... cant wait to get plyo done and get some photos taken to see the differences....

any one going to post them? i should hopefully tomorrow... would love some feedack from you guys once i do

just took mine right now.....im gonna try to figure out a way to set u them side by side.
