Did Phase 2 workout 5 today. I have to say I am much more impressed with Phase 2. My arms were killing me this morning!

    WO 5 is a killer on the triceps (and wrists), but I can SEE definition!! Something is working and it's so exciting!!! hehe!!

    Yes, it's a great workout. Especially with that third circuit between the cable chest flies, the crab with a leg lift and then the upper cut circuit. It's a killer on your arms!

    I started phase 2 today also. I'm thinking I should have followed the advice of another pal and skipped phase 1, since i had been doing ripped in 30 before this. Hope to start seeing results now.

    Started Phase 2 today, too. I never mastered the crab exercise so I substituted triceps dips. My shoulders just won't let me do the crab. I had a shoulder injury a few years ago so I think that just must be it.

    I've had to do a bunch of modifications with all the lunges and squats. I was relieved to see that Workout 5 wasn't too crazy with the lunging. Love those woodchoppers!

    I liked the wood choppers except I don;t have the best balance. I need to remeber to keep my core engaged.

    I did workout 6 last night. I really liked it. Supermaans with weight are hard! I had 2 lb weights and could hardly get the front of my body off the ground!

    Did my first workout 6 today- It was very challenging - but I loved it !! I have to agree with others workout 5 is a killer especially the cable exercises, the crab with leg raise was actually pretty easy for me- I was quite surprised about that:smokin:

    Oh I couldn't do superman's with weights. I was using 3lb in each hand could barely lift- so I continued without

    Those reverse planks are a killer for me! I'm working out as hard as I can and sweating my butt off during the workouts but still not getting the burn I thought I would - according to my BodyMedia. Oh well, I'm doing my best.
