I started Day 1 yesterday. I'm a little sore all over, but not too bad. I'm excited to try the B workout tomorrow.0

I've been waitiing for my book to arrive for about 3 weeks (it's coming from the US and I'm in the UK.) I'm running to the post each morning but still nothing :-(
Will I need to do the workout at the gym or can I do it at home if I have the right equipment? How long does the workout take to complete each session?
Can't wait to get started!0 -

The gym is easier but the book gives you alternatives if you're working out at home. The first workouts are pretty quick -- lots of people have commented about it. About 20 minutes. As the program goes on, they get longer.0 -

Still didn't arrive today grrrrr!0 -
Well I am excited...Day 1. It didn't take as much time as I thought it would but it was more work than I thought it would be. I am not new to lifting, I am not even new to lifting heavy but I am new to the "total body" concept. I used to lift chest and tris, back and bis, then legs and shoulders so this is different. I have to say I was really sweating this morning. I normally don't really sweat while lifting (even running, it takes me about a mile before I start to sweat). Today it was pouring down my back...very exciting, gross but exciting. Let's see how I feel tomorrow morning :-) I just wanted to say "Yay!" I am on the road to buff :-)
How much weight did you use on the squats?0 -

Ok that's what I used too. I started out with the 45lb bar and 10lbs in weights but decided that wasn't challenging enough so bumped it up to 20lbs in weights.0 -
