I'm half-way through stage 1, but very much a beginner.

I just started on Monday. Starting workout 1B today. I'm still sore from Monday but its a great feeling because I know I got a awesome workout! Good luck next week and stick with it!

I am in the exact same place...1B tonight! I wasn't sore at all yesterday, but today I am super sore!!

I definitely still feel like a newbie, so feel free to add me as well

I did 2B today, and am definitely feeling it! So far I've been staying on top of things and have been working out hard, but I definitely struggle with my eating. Hopefully I can get both my lifting and eating under control so that I can get stronger and lose fat!

Hi,

I just ordered the book last night and aiming for a Monday start (if it arrives in time). I'd love an add . Thanks.

Hello!
I did Stage 1, A, Workout 1 for the first time on Tuesday (yesterday) and am sore today!

I had actually thought it was going to be easy, but I made it a point to really push myself. Turns out, my YEARS of working out, lifting and even working with a trainer (2+ years ago) did help me to understand the first round of exercise moves but only after I did a trial run of everything and HAD to take the book to the gym with me! I'm starting all over here! This is GREAT STUFF.

It also helped me to make a pre-filled spreadsheet with the exercises and map it all out on a calendar. Yes, I am the kind of gal that likes her 'lists'.

Looking forward to tomorrow, Stage 1, B, Workout 1. Yes, I'm bringing out the book again!

I too would love to add friends at the same stage in the program. I'm a 47 year old Mom to 5 (ages 6-18). I work at home on a computer all day and I am working really hard to lose the rest of the weight I have gained in the last 2 years. (25 down, 25 to go!)

thanks!

I am starting on Sunday, any can add me if they like. Been doing Chalean Extreme for a few weeks but fancied giving this a try now.

Hi, I'm due to do workout 2B tomorrow. Feel free to add me :happy:

I'll be starting on Monday but I'll work through the exercises in workout A & B using body weight only on tonight and Saturday to learn the moves and form.

I would love some work out buddies! I'll start adding people and please feel free to add me. :flowerforyou:

I need to pull my book out again, I think they had body weight exercises in there, right?

Hey, I am starting the program tonight! I am looking for friends doing it as well so please add me!

i did 3A this morning. i'm doing the workouts at home and its going well. feel free to add me. i think stage 2 will be more challenging and after finishing this stage it will be great to have company!

Feel free to add me - I did 3B this morning so still a newbie at this...also doing the workouts at home

Thinking of starting next week too. I have had the book...want to look it over again this weekend. Not sure if I will actually start Mon or Tues. Looking forward to the progress. I have just got to step away from that dang scale! Love all the inspirational stories/pics of women who have done so well lifting HEAVY!

I just started this morning! I have been lifting on my own for a month or so but needed a good routine to stick with and help me see results, I've heard so many great things about this program I decided to give it a try.

Feel free to add me if you like, I love new MFP buddies!

I thought I finally understood the workout and just was reviewing it before I start tomorow morning. Am realizing now, I am STILL so confused! Looks like I need to start reviewing all the info again.

Is anyone finding that their grip strength sucks for the deadlift? I am going to try the over hand, under hand grip. I was only using 55 lbs. and it felt like the bar was going to slip. My legs and back felt great, but my hands wouldn't cooperate.
