I'm starting, too!! I need an accountibili-buddy, so I'll be your buddy! 0

Awesome! Have you started yet?
I did one workout A and one workout B with my trainer so I am ready now. I did B last night but I was still sore from the squats two days earlier so I didn't do too well in the lunges. 0 -
I just ordered all my equipment so it won't be here for a bit
I am so ready to start but have to wait... I can certainly join the discussion and support when it gets here!!!
I am not patient enough for this

I haven't started yet. I've done Chalean Extreme, but even those are "Barbie weights" compared to what I plan on using. I've looked over everything and had my husband show me the moves that I didn't quite get. I'm planning to start Monday... I have to finish setting up my workout space this weekend! I'm glad that there will be a group of us working together!0

I plan to start this weekend. Running a 5k tomorrow, so I plan to lift on Sat or Sun. I need some buddies!!!0
-
Start Monday. Feel free to add! I went to the gym with my brother today to go over some of the moves to check on my form. It helped me feel a lot more confident going into it0

Awesome I have buddies!

Hi, I am 52 and have almost 100lbs to lose. I have been doing weight work for about 2 weeks only. I tried Workout A on Friday but I intend "official" start today (Monday). My knee gives me a problem but I want to try work through it. My biggest concern was bursting the Swiss ball.0

Today I turned 58...eek!
Starting NR today, I'll add all of you!
By the way, I'm a paleo girl, so if you look at my diary, be prepared!

How did you go? 0 -
A1 completed last night. I really enjoyed the workout. I think I need to go heavier, except for rowing, but wasn't sure where to start. . A little sore sore today but not bad. Slept really good.0

I started this past Monday as well! Friday is day three...stage 1- workout A! Exciting!! :-)0
-
I've done the first 2 workouts I've also been walking and running this week. 0
-
bepeejay, I started Monday as well. After Weds. lunges I didn't think I would be able to walk the next day but legs were tired, not sore. I am really liking the program so far. My biggest struggle is squeezing the release enough to get it off the bar to change weights.I started this past Monday as well! Friday is day three...stage 1- workout A! Exciting!! :-)0 -
I finally get to start on Monday!! woohoo! Got my weight room set up last night - just some last minute stuff to the house this weekend and I am good to go!!0
-
Did my first one this morning! woohooo my arms are jelly but I did all my pushups My squat definitely needs form work so will recruit my husband this evening for form check lol
I was real happy with myself for trying.. now to start adding more weights next time around.0 -

Wahooooo
Feels great, doesn't it?0 -
It did feel good..... now I can't wait until Wednesday... I love doing it at 4:30am - my house is quiet and everyone is asleep :bigsmile:0

I have done 3 days and I have 2 challenges:-
I have to do girlie push ups as my wrists/arms cannot support my body weight which is a LOT!
My right knee has been giving me trouble for about 4 weeks but I am pushing through it. This then makes the squats, lunges and step ups more difficult.
Aiming to do 24 workouts instead of the 16, that takes my up to 29 December the I can kick off 2014 with stage 2.
Happy with the rowing though. Used 15kg weight on Sunday and I know I can definitely do more! YAY!0 -
recommendation for all women and pushups... I was in the Army for 12 years... so treat it like boot camp...
1. Never drop to the knees (not allowed...EVER)
2. Resting position is bent in half with butt in air
3. Do as many as you can complete full form - even if it is only 5. Then the next time..do more...
4. After a couple of weeks, give yourself a test on them - see how many can be done in full form in 2 minutes (that was our PT test)
The only way to get really good at them is to just do them - relentlessly. I used to love them while I was active duty and could easily knock out 65-70 in a 2 min period I can still do them (not that many lol)
You CAN do them - it sucks trust me lol it is great for building up strength... 0 -
I just started this morning too!
For those that have been at it a week or so now, how often are you upping your weights? And by how much? I thought this morning's workout was pretty easy so I'm probably not using enough weights. I figured I'd up weights when a new week starts - so do two workouts at the same weights and then up them the next week. Is that how you do it?0 -
Hi ladies! I'm planning on starting again (almost got through stage 1 in the summer, but stopped due to an injury) today! Really excited to get back into it 0
-
It's so exciting to have so many women start with me!
If the weights are too light, I'd add a plate or a few kgs and try again next workout. I used a trainer in my first session to help me figure out an appropriate weight. I was really going too light on the step ups - started at 7 kgs each hand for some reason (I think I read it wrong) but I'm up to 12.5 kgs each hand now.
Stage 1, Workout B3 tomorrow Love deadlifts. 0 -
Did stage 1 workout A1 yesterday! Felt so good to get back into it!0
-
Me too! Did B1 this morning and will do A2 Thursday.0
