    Accountability Round 2 T25 Beta - Upper Focus

    Finished Upper focus and my neck/shoulders ache. This is the problem with weights. I feel like I can lift more than 10 pounds but when I increase I get terrible neck/shoulder pains. Almost crippling. Not sure if form is wrong, tensing wrong areas, or just a baby. I tried increasing to 12.5 pounds and can go through the forms but my neck starts to pain. Not the workout pain but a "danger pain" if that makes sense. Then it takes me hours to relax the neck/shoulders. "Nailed the Video again"

    I think I may give up the scale for 2-4 weeks, bring my calories back up and see what happens. I ate Net Calories of 2182 and total calories 2500. Its a little higher than I wanted but I have a ton of energy this morning. My calorie experiment is over. I need to net 2000 calories to be happy and energetic. I will take a 1 pound weightloss per week instead of 2 pounds with the trade off being happier and more energetic. I was alert all day at work yesterday.


    Who can guess what I am ordering tonight?
  • Core Cardio and Speed 2.0 done. Now only 3 more workouts to go to finish out Beta!

    Accountability Round 2 T25 Week 3 Day 3 Speed 2.0 "Nailed It!!"

    I am loving this round of Beta, still nailing the workouts. Completed a 2 min plank but may have to stop the challenge. Not sure if form is bad or what but after my lower back is way more than hurting. I could barely move. May need to lose some more mid level fat stores Odd because on the planks in upper focus I am in them for like 5 minutes + doing other crap. Perhaps its just the low plank I am doing. Anyways, I kicked Speed 2.0. It feels a little weird after finishing the Vid to want to restart it and do it a second time. May have to try getting up at 3am, sneaking in a quick excersize before my wife wakes up and act like nothing happened

    Bedrock - Woot almost completed you T25 Series. Whats next? Another round? Gamma? I am hoping to order gamma this week.

    Accountability Week 3 Day 4 Dynamic Core "made it Through"

    Green is the color of the day. Went to bed with major headache. Woke up with same headache. Ate some breakfast and poped in Dynamic core. Intro was great. I hit 160 on the HR monitor for a minute or two. As soon as I started the ab work I got nausous and made a run to the restroom. Finished up, rinsed mouth and finished the work out. My abs have been killing me over the last week. I realy focused on my core through all the vids. When he says flex your abs I have worked hard doing that and I can feel it. I think I am getting a bit run down. Boys have been caughing for a few weeks and I am starting to get aches. Tomorrow will be my Plank challenge restart after a 2 day break. I will dial it back down to 1:30 and move up from there.

    I want to do a double tomorrow but am told, your not feeling well take a rest day
  • Oooh, JakeYuma, sounds like your household is getting sick, so don't overdo it on the exercise right now.

    I just did Rip'T Circuit. Now I only have two more workouts to go (I haven't been doing doubles recently).

    What's next? Not sure. My husband wants me to do CrossFit. Maybe I'll see how you like Gamma and P90x30 and follow suit!

    Accountability Round 2 T25 Beta Week 4 Day 1 Rip't Curcuit + Core Speed "Nailed them"

    Completed Rop't curcuit including the 4 count push-ups and 5 count abs at the end. Very happy with myself. Afterwards I wanted to watch Speed Curcuit Bonus DVD and see what that was all about. I decided to just do a double and see. I pushed through the video and one-hand burpees where not as bad as I thought. Not easy but I did them. Pushed hard through this video with an Avg HR 150. I am sure I can go harder next time and may replace Speed 2.0 with Core Speed or just add a few doubles during the week. Is it wrong I love the Speed videos. About an hour after the work-out I was still sweating.

    Very happy. Now if I can jumpstart my fat loss again. Its slowed to .8 to 1 pound a week and need to get it back up to the 1-2 pound per week range. I was short on calories by 290 yesturday. Do I get to add those to my calories today

    Double Stats:

    Avg Hr 149
    Max Hr 168
    Total Calories: 799

    Total calories for breakfast + protean shake = 802 Net colories for AM = 3

    Bedrock - Way to finish. I may have asked already but are you going for a second round of T25?
