Anyone doing the Jamie Eason's LiveFit 12-week Trainer?

Just started, on Phase One Day 3 and I'm pretty sore today but I'm super excited to see how this works. I've been running lately working up to a 5K so I'm kinda disappointed about the cardio thing but I'm going to give it a try anyway. I can always add the running in when she says to do cardio. And I'm only using 8-10 lb weights, everyone is different! Good luck all!

I've noticed my work-outs seem really short too and it made me wonder also. But if you are doing all the excercises and 3 sets of 12 we must be doing it right?? I'm just going to stick with it, she might be starting us really slowly and maybe soon it will take us longer to finish the workouts.

I'm on day 11. I been following the workouts and resting. But am I doing something wrong? I finish working out in less than 20 minutes to 30 minutes. Not including warmup and cooldown. Help Do I need to repeat all the exercises again? I am lifting weights that are heavy enough to complete the total reps [12-15].

Hey everyone!
I've done TONS of research on many different programs including Jillian michaels. I was seriously considering jillians plan but the fact that you are limited on the amount of coffee didn't appeal to me. Also, it didn't seem organized or structured. Sure there are a lot of workouts she has and a lot of different recipes but I wouldn't know where to begin. I stumbled upon Jamie easons plan trough looking at blogs of people who have lost weight and how they did it.

I studied jamies routine - exercises and diet - for about four hours. I was so compelled how much knowledge she has and how her program has so much structure. She explains things so clearly that I understand and believe in her plan.

Those of you who are questioning the cardio - please watch her videos on why she has you do no cardio in the beginning. Muscle burns more calories than fat does. By building muscle in the beginning, you are preparing your body to burn the maximum calories so you shed fat and reveal teiscle you've built. If you do cardio you are using your muscle building energy and your body will not build the muscle intended in this program. Please stick to her plan with no cardio in the beginning. She emphasizes being honest an dedicate tothe program. If you don't see results, it's because you were not following it to a t.

For those of you questioning diet - it's just as important as the exercise regimen. Again, watch her video on this. I encourage you to take all of the supplements she recommends too especially the flax seed oil. This aids in regular digestion and bowel movemts as well as weightloss. Drink plenty of water too! Her diet is set up in a way that will achieve optimum results if paired with her routine. Find the strength and the mind power to follow this to a t! I know it will be hard but the results are worth it!

There are so many ways to make up small meals out of the approves ingredient list. You can have UNLIMITED veggies!! Steam a bunch of them together and bake some seasoned chicken. Cube chicken and mix in with veggies and season with any of the approved spices. This is good for lunch or dinner. You can make foil packets of white fishband veggies with a small side of brown rice or quinoa. Really the possibilities are endless you just have to be creative and remember portion control.

Drink water before a meal and after a meal, too. It will help you feel fuller longer.

Hope this helps some of you! Good luck!!

I am excited to start this program November 27. I am just throwing it out there in case anyone sees this as a topic and wants to join me. I really want to stick to the plan as closely as possible but I know it will be hard, not just the holidays but misc. holiday parties and get togethers. Drinking will be the hardest thing for me to give up, I think I am going to limit to one night per week.

I can't wait! I just wish I could start it tonight, but I really want to complete NROLW first
