    Have you lost 3 pounds since this past Saturday or last Saturday? Have you been eating at a calorie deficit too?

    If you want that athletic muscular look - you need to A. build muscles.... then B. Cut off the body fat so you can SEE the muscles.

    Do concentrate on your diet- and just do a body weight workout 2-3 times a week.

    You're diet will have a much bigger impact on your over all appearance vs the working out. (Obviously a combined effort is best- but diet first- workouts second as far as priorities)

    And hate to break it to you sweetie- you didn't lose 3 lbs of fat in 2.5 days. You could have lost water weight- or taken a crap and lost that. on a 500 calorie deficit- you are going to lose about 1 lb a week. 3500 calories = approximately 1 lb of fat... 3500/7 - 500 calories a day.

    That's where you lose weight.
  • I know it seems bad and it probably was water weight or something but the main reason for this post was for a new workout to do....
    anybody know of any apps like for ipods or of videos i can watch online. I do the workout in my original post and sometimes my davina dvd.... i also sometimes do insanity which i have a full copy of on my laptop but i just cant commit to a workout everyday but over the holidays i will do it
