I think you and I are in the same place on this! I just finished my first round of WO4. I actually thought it was not that bad compared to WO3 but maybe that has more to do with what parts of my body are more fit than others. I haven't been doing the cardio workout... I know that's bad! but... I hate cardio! I used to go…

I HATE cardio days! I don't know why, I think the jumps and stuff really hurt my feet. I'm trying to get better shoes so it's not so painful all the time. It feels like I'm not getting tired so much as my feet feel like they're tearing apart. New sneakers today, so we will see how cardio works out with them!

Today I have to be in early at work so I got up at 5:30 to work out beforehand and... it's too early! Do people normally wake up this early!? It's inhuman. Also I think I didn't eat enough food yesterday because I feel kind of nauseated now. Blerg. Time to shower...

I just started on Monday! I am on week one day 3 :smile:

Hi there! I just started this on MONDAY! I am now on day 3, I guess, of week 1. So I've done one of each of the three workouts for weeks 1/2. It's been ok! I am trying to do this before work in the am, so that means I have to wake up at like 6 am, which to me seems super early. Anyways, if you want company, I am also…

Pff if only. I have this set of handweights that has weight plates, so the bars are in my checked bag because TSA thinks they are "bludgeoning weapons" and the plates (10 lbs of them) are in my laptop bag, which now weighs 25 lbs that I get to lug around the airport. I guess that's a sort of exercise too?! At this point if…

I just started on Sunday, so I just finished the fifth day of this. So far I like it more than 30DS bc it's structured so you don't do the same thing every day so it's not so boring for me! I think the first two workouts are fairly easy? I didn't feel like I was dying anyway. That might be because I've been doing Zumba…

That was pretty amazing! It makes me feel like I'm on the right track :)

Hey guys! I also have a Fitbit that I got for Christmas this year. I love it! It's definitely made me take the stairs and walk the long way more lately. I would happily be anyone else's friend :)

You guys are amazing and really inspirational! Thanks for all the pics!

Holy crap!

Thank you all for your inspiration :)

I don't know how fast you'll lose weight, but I think increasing muscle fitness is certainly never going to hurt anybody! I am not a fitness expert though...

bump...

Oh yeah, I guess during the SL gym period, I'll do like 10 minutes of running on the elliptical at some resistance level that's resistey but doesn't impede running? To get the heart pumping. And I'll usually do somewhere between 1-3 sets of warmup exercises while ramping the weight up to that day's amt.

I do Zumba ~ 3x a week (TWR evenings) and SL (MWF mornings). But I started SL recently, whereas I've been doing Zumba on that schedule for about three months. So far so good though! On Wednesdays I need my buddies to persuade me to actually get my butt to Zumba though...

Thank you for the clarification! I will be doing this on Wednesday :D

I just started this! I am excited to see where it goes. Today was literally day 1 and I'm excited to see where things go. Starting: Squat: 65 Bench: 55 Row: 55 I have a question: for the overhead press, do you start from the floor on each rep (I've seen people do this?) or do you start from the floor per set, i.e. lift the…

This happened to me this morning!! Congratulations! It's a pretty great feeling :smile:

Congratulations! I am looking forward to that day myself. Oh to wear skirts comfortably again! Etc Good job :smile:

Thank you very much! I am pretty nervous for the exam! If I pass, I get to stay on for my PhD (yay!)
