I'm 1.5 weeks out from Phase 2 and have looked ahead to both Phase 2 and 3. Looks like I might have to tweak a few things with the plan. Based on layout at my gym, number of people in there at all hours of the day and my schedule I might have to do the exercises but not superset them as prescribed.

I've had a lot going on the past few weeks, stressed and pulled thin. I decided to start this week on Week 7 (I was half assed doing weeks 5 and 6)

Question: How long is it taking you all to do a workout? My rest between sets is usually no more than 60 seconds. Sometimes I "cheat" and even do some supersets to speed up the process. I spend anywhere from 1hr-1.5hr just doing weights!!!

I was at the gym for 2 hours or so - they're long!

Good to know I'm not the only one. My motivation just sucks these days. You'd think my stress levels would encourage me to go workout but they don't..I turn more into a hermit. Anyway, gonna go get it in tomorrow.

Yesterday, I used an app for a stopwatch to actually count my 60 sec between sets..I was done with my leg routine in less than an hour! I'm going to keep using that thing. It keeps me accountable and focused on getting in and out

That's fantastic!! I'm really bad about that. I kinda stretch inbetween sets, then check my text messages, and leisurely start again. I really need a more disciplined approach like that.

I love those apps that keep me focused! I used GymGoal to input my workout and track everything!

hi everyone!

i am on day 36 (2nd week of phase 2) and i am looking for a little motivation! during phase one i didn't lose any weight nor do my clothes fit differently - and my muscle doesn't look too different either. i am hoping that phase 2 will create some noticeable results as i am feeling a bit defeated!

one thing i didn't keep up with daily was the fish oil - it is in my fridge but i keep forgetting about it. do you think it would make a huge difference?

thanks for listening!
day 36 tomorrow!

-suzy

so you did all 3 phases then?

I didn't do Phase 3....I need to lose more weight before "leaning out" which is what Phase 3 does. Tasha you did great! I definitely suffered with my share of injuries during Jamie's program! One of which I am still dealing with! Good luck ladies!

What kind of injuries? Now I'm nervous.....I am in the middle of phase two and things are going well.

I wouldn't worry a ton if things are going well for you this far. I have a previous runners knee issue that I had to adjust the program for slightly, but I don't think anything I did on her program actually caused me any injuries. If anything I was able to build up the muscle to do more with my legs than I would have otherwise because of my silly knees. As long as you've got good form you'll be fine : )

None that were related specifically to her program. I gashed my shin really bad and the worst injury was Tennis Elbow. That came from bad form with lifting, but not persay her program, just lifting in general. So "Form" is key!!!
