I can see the difference in your pecs as well as in your abs. Done in thirty day?! Amazing.
I look forward to seeing the next photos as well.
Are there any more details you can share about your workouts? I expect it is easier when you're younger, but please don't downplay what you've accomplished, because it truly is amazing, especially within the relatively short time you've been working at it.
I do strength training 3 days a week. And, I run 4 days a week.
For strength training, I just simply do the P90X upper body workouts. I do not do the yoga, cardio, stretching, kenpo, and anything else. Just the upper body stuff. That's it. No secret. I do the workouts in the exact order, except way more often.
For running, I am training for a half-marathon coming up. So, I run 10 miles tomorrow. First time for that. So, we'll see if I break a hip or something. LOL.
Anyway, it's not magic, it's just pure determination. One thing is my intensity in this past month has really picked up. I don't know why exactly, but my workouts are very intense and I constantly beat records on the amount of weight and reps with almost every workout. I write everything I do down so I can compare and keep a running total of the progress for each workout and almost everyweek, I have been exceeding either weight or reps on almost every exercise.
I am also learning about how my body uses up energy. And, I find that I am way better off if I try to eat larger meals earlier and lighter meals later, rather than the other way around, which is more normal for most people.
I don't know. It's just hard work. The hardest part is mental. Sometimes, I doubt myself, and that's when I go get some ice cream or something.0 -
