Good morning! I'm starting Week 3 today. Fire 45 EZ and Stretch 10. My abs have been sore, but other than that, I'm feeling pretty good! What does everyone else have planned for this week?

I'm starting the program this afternoon after work.
I'm wondering though if I should start with the prep schedule or if I can start using the regular schedule.
For the past month, I have been walking and using my gazelle at least 30 mins to hour + around 3+ per week so it's not like I haven't been working out before I start this program.0 -
I would think that since you've been working out you'd be fine starting with the regular schedule. It'll still be tough and you'll be sore, but it'll be a good sore! Good luck!0

As long as it's not the "omg I need a walker" sore like I had this weekend after doing a 3.15 mile walk I think I can handle it. I felt like a penguin :laugh:0

@spikedholly, I didn't do the prep schedule (probably because I didn't know about it), just start with the "new to class" option you should do fine. Good luck. I'm finishing up week 20 this week, though I'm not following the assigned classes.0

Rest day today! It's recovery week, so a pretty light schedule. We did have our 5K stroller class this morning, but the pace was kind of slow. I might do another short run later without the kids.0

Hey new here I am on week 6 but I just started the regular schedule I did the prep schedule for five weeks. So today was Fire 45 :smokin:0

Went out and bought a puzzle piece floor mat to cover the carpet since it's hard to "pivot" on carpet and went to pick up a pair of new exercise shoes at Kohl's today and couldn't decide between two pair....so I grabbed 'em both :bigsmile:0

For those who have done the Inferno plan...how often can it be done? Would once a month be good? Thanks!!0

I have one of those, I normally use it on hardwood floors, but due to circumstances beyond my control, I used it on carpet and noticed it would move while I was working out, so you may need some sort of gripping material between the mat and the carpet.0 -
Fire45EZ=DONE :bigsmile:0

Rest Day today!!! Going to enjoy it :-)0
-

Thanks It seemed alright when I did HIIT 20 but if I do have some of that double sided carpet tape - maybe that would work if I start to feel it move.
Fire 30 + Stretch 10 after work today - Maybe since I did it once already I won't feel like I don't know what the heck I'm doing :P
Question: Folks that work out in the evenings: Do you work out before or after dinner usually?0 -
@spikedholly, it may have to do with the carpet pile, you probably have a thicker pile whereas, mine, being more of an area rug, is very low. That's great that it worked for you.
Finishing up TF this week, all 20 weeks, not expecting big changes in weight or measurements, but I may post before and after photos. Also I think I found my new favorite annoying TF song to replace "Boom, I got your boyfriend", don't know the exact name, but its in Fire 60 and has the words, "This girl is crazy", which of course I feel like while I'm doing Fire 60.
Edited to add: I workout in the evening, as soon as I get home from work and before dinner. I try to make sure I eat a snack late afternoon so I'm not hungry.0 -
Fire 45 + stretch 10 + 185 squats done!! I feel like I am a kid in school again and it is the last day right before summer break!! Loving this weather!!0

I workout before dinner. I go ahead and cook when I get home from work. I then do my workout, shower, and eat. It seems like it would be too difficult to work out after dinner.0 -
Fire 45 EZ today, not my best. I was mentally prepared for Fire 45 and then my daughter wasn't napping. I had to stop 3x to assist her with stuff, really decreases my burn!0
-
Going to be doing Fire 30 or maybe 45/55 since we have an event tonight with fatty food and beer being served. I have to work off those calories. Looks like I will need to buy a heart rate monitor. I currently use the FitBit but after working out last night doing Fire 30, FitBit only allocated 65 calories burned. I would like to get a more accurate calories burned when doing the TF workouts and then manually add to MFP.0

Feelin' it from Tone 30 last night. :oP And I don't know about you, but I'm not a fan of the tone and sculpt workouts. The red band hurts so much where it lays on my arms!0
-
Fire 55 EZ done!!! Woo Hoo !0
-
Fire 55EZ + 190 squats done first thing this morning...then me and my hubby took advantage of my parents being in town and got them to watch the baby while we went and ran 5k just for fun!! I haven't ran in 3 years...it felt good...although I am quite sore tonight and will definitely feel it tomorrow!
Don't get me wrong...I love turbo...but it feels so good to workout outside and get some fresh air!!0 -
Can I just say that Fire 55 EZ on Day 5 is a lie!! I kicked its butt though. LOL :bigsmile:0
