First attempt at Core Synergistics tonight. Still pushing play. First 30 days almost done.0

I've decided to switch from lean to classic. We'll see how it goes!
Yay!
And I've decided I'm going to try my best to switch from classic to doubles. Let's see what happens!0 -
Core Synergistics again tonight, I didn't get to it until after 9pm which is about 2 hrs later than I usually work out. I was tired and probably only gave it a 90% effort at best. I just wasn't feeling it tonight, had a hectic day at work and at home, one of those days I really could use a stiff drink (but I'm holding off on booze at least for 30 days, dangit!). I'm kind of bummed this workout is only used 4 times in 90 days? Really is that right? I might swap it out somewhere down the line, maybe for Yoga a couple times.
Glad to see everyone is still kicking some *kitten*. Good job everyone!
You sure burned a lot of calories for not feeling it! Good job :-D0 -
Chect & Back and Ab Ripper X tonight after work.
Hate it when I have to be in to the theater early for work and don't get to work out first. :-/0 -
Legs & Back with ab ripper X Complete!!! Burned 539 calories!!!!!! I am excited about that!!!! Hope everyone else has a great workout day!0
-
Pushed through 1 hour of Yoga today ... totally psyched about that!
Seeing ever so slight improvement!0 -
Yesterday I was able to fit in 50 min of YogaX which is the most I've done of the dvd! I'm pretty proud of myself actually for taking the initiative and working out at work even if I wasn't able to fit in the entire DVD. This afternoon I only had time to fit in 1/2 of the Legs/Back because of my plans tonight and my weekend off now turned into a working weekend :explode:
Gonna bang out some Kenpo or Plyo tomorrow morning before work! I wonder if my neighbors below can hear me jumping around lol...I hope not, since I'm going to be jumping around at 630am on a Saturday! :laugh:
Nutrition today is actually pretty good so far. I still have a lot of protein to take in and I'm trying to watch my sugar intake...I forget how much sugar fruit contains...only eating 1 serving a day is hard for me!0 -
I liked Core Synergistics much better tonight, was able to push harder. I''m getting anxious about the 30 day results, I HOPE I see some changes!!!0

day 3 of my recovery week (kempo) in the books! My hamstrings are a little tight after kempo and now I get to sit in a car all night at work. A little stretching will be a good thing tomorrow.0

I'm starting in the morning day 10

Bring it! Good luck to you!0 -
Week 3 Day 1:
Start of a new week today! Did a good Chest and Back workout, although it's not my favourite of the strength exercises. Looking forward to/dreading Plyo tomorrow haha, I always feel so good after I've finished it though.
Glad to hear of new people starting up (or changing up) this program! I wish you the best of luck with it and encourage you to just keep at it in the beginning even if you struggle some.

Good job! I just finished my 5th week so it was my 1st week of doubles! It can be tough but I am burning over 1000 calories on the doubles day and I love it!I've decided to switch from lean to classic. We'll see how it goes!
Yay!

Great! I think most of us agreet that we HATE the yoga bug it does feel good after doesn't it!?
Im on my last day of week 2 and am already starting to see some slight improvements! I'm totally hooked!! Kempo today and then next week will be my first full week of classic version. I'm looking forward to it. I did Plyo as an extra routine last week and holy man!!! Nearly died but LOVED it!0 -

I have to say I am amazed at how sore my back is today ... I did 70 minutes of Yoga and ran 6.5 miles yesterday.
My legs are a lil sore... but my back muscles... ooh how worked were they. I love this type of sore...means improvements are being made!0 -
Hey yall! Just popping in to stay accountable. Yesterday, I skipped the Kenpo and did X Stretch in order to prepare for today's half marathon. Wish I could have gotten the cardio in, but I needed to give my legs a break after Legs & Back on Thursday...no matter how low impact, a 2 hour workout didn't sound like a good idea. Anyway, I had just finished complaining about the fact that I couldn't yet see any changes to my body, but did note that I am feeling much stronger...today, I beat my last half marathon time by almost 3 minutes and kept a pace of 10:26/mile. For me, that is pretty darn fast. And I felt amazing. My official time was 2:16:36. So, take that, scale and tape measure! Maybe starting this two weeks ago was a good idea after all. :-) Have a great day everyone!!0
-
Kenpo done!!!! Burned 684 calories!!!! I love that workout! It goes by so fast!!! I think I might take a long walk on my rest day instead of Xstretch...if it's nice!0

Good to hear someone else is doing it! I'm looking forward to it. I looked at the calendar, and over the next 8 weeks there's 11 days that are doubles. When you look at it like that it seems doable, lets see if I can do it lol. Having a 7month old baby that sometimes still wakes up at night might make my decision to do doubles challenging.0 -
Good thing I only had the stretch today, because we ended up going to the bar after work this morning for 4 tall beers and an all meat skillet. I woke up a little unmotivated to say the least. Got it done and back at it again tomorrow. Hope work goes by quickly tonight!0

Oh wow! Yeah I have no children and work midnights so I've been trying to do 1 workout when I get home at 8am, then 1 workout when I wake up in the afternoon. That way I can almost trick myself into believing it is 2 days instead of 1 and it doesn't seem as bad! I love the cardio X too it seems to go by so fast.0 -
Week 3 Day 2:
Accidentally did Shoulders and Cardio X instead of Plyo :P so I'll be doing that tomorrow instead. Silly mistake, but still no harm done. Good workout regardless lol!0 -
Still in my first recovery week, rather enjoying not having to do weights as it totally wipes me out.
Kenpo last night for the last time, going to miss that workout but it's got to go as it doesn't give me a high enough average heart rate. Stretch for the first time tonight, not looking forward to it as I'm about as flexible as glass.0 -
Starting week 5 today! Can't believe how fast time is flying!!0

Starting week 5 today! Can't believe how fast time is flying!!
Day 29, today starts week 5 for me as well. I'll do a 30 day progress report in a couple days with measurements and whatnot. I can tell visually so I'm excited to actual measure things out and see it all layed out on paper.
Yesterday I went with the rest option instead of Stretching, figuring I just did Yoga the day before and Stretch earlier in the week. Speaking of Yoga, for some reason I really enjoyed it this time, the first 45 minutes didn't seem as bad, maybe I'm just getting use to the whole routine. I do feel pretty good once it is over. I can do Crane almost for the full minute, still working on the wheel!0 -
Starting lean cycle tomorrow. So excited! Any leaners for any advice for me?0

AHH, but this is where you will begin to be more flexible than glass. 0 -
Didn't enjoy it at all, wasn't made any easier by my daughter doing it with me and being able to max out each of the stretches. She even managed to touch her knee to her nose during the glute stretch.
AHH, but this is where you will begin to be more flexible than glass.
I'll try again in a month, I'm definatley more flexible than I was during the first week.0 -
hey there x'ers. I just got my workout discs and am planning on starting this week. I am wondering if you are all doing the nutrition plan that they recommend. I fall into the 2400 calories group and I feel like this is more than I should be eating...Just wondering what you all are doing nutrition wise. I also dont have the money for the beachbody recovery drinks or protein shakes. Can anyone recommend an alternative??? thanks!!0
