Introduction
Hey all, I'm on my third attempt to finish this program. In 2015 I got mono and then got pregnant shortly after recovering. I tried again after I had a baby and was up to Strength and Power IV when I needed to have my gallbladder removed and couldn't lift for 6 weeks. I've started again. Still on Basic Training I. How is…
Stage 3 - Strength and Power
I have just started stage 3. Anyone else? I am finding these very long workouts and exhausting! I had crazy DOMS after workout B. Need moral support, LOL
Back to Basic Training III
Started back on BT III this week after a break of almost 3 weeks (I went to Sweden to celebrate my mother's 100th birthday). So far, I have done one each of the A and B workouts. The first one was hard!!! The second one felt much better, so I'm getting back in the groove. One of the reasons I decided to do the Supercharged…
Finished Basic Training IV
Last week, and I'm really happy with the results! This program really works to build strength, burn fat and improve mobility. Because of my hip surgeries, my lower body is still a little problematic. I have had to completely "rebuild" my squat, starting with basically just relearning to sit down and stand up normally. It…
Kettlebells
Almost done with BTI2 and planning my workouts for BT3. I'd like to add kettlebells. I work out at home, so I need to purchase them. I don't want to go too light or too heavy. Can anyone tell me what they used at this stage? Thanks!
Carliee's Supercharged Report
Since some of you are curious about how my workouts are going, I thought I'd start a thread rather. I did Basic Training I Workout B for the first time tonight. It went really well. All exercises were challenging. I was even able to do planks, which means my elbow has healed a lot since I did workout A. I could only do 15…
Welcome and Introductions
Welcome all! My name is Carliee and I've got the book, have read some, got busy with work and school, and now I'm not sure where the book is. I'm not a fitness expert, just someone who thinks this looks like a great program. I need to get over the intimidation I feel when it comes from switching from machines to free…
From Machines to Free Weights
I'm totally intimidated by switching from machines to free weights. Some recent reading has convinced me that it's an important change. The key for me was reading that weights don't work your stabilization muscles. Today when I was trying to get up from a fall on an icy sidewalk while wearing my backpack, I decided I…
JP Fitness Forum
The other day I found what I think it the official Supercharged forum. The authors comment on posts here: http://jpfitness.com/index.php/forum/117-the-new-rules-of-lifting-supercharged
