Cool! I'm on week four too, day 25. Unless you were lifting very light (or not to failure), I wouldn't worry about it. You're supposed to lift at 60% for phase 1, 85% for phase 2, etc. I went too heavy in the beginning, so it can be hard to find that good weight where you're pushing yourself, but not to the point of bad…

Jamie is awesome, I love her recipes and how…

I just started week 4. So far I have LOVED it. I feel so strong and energetic. When I start Phase 2 I'm going to do HIIT for the cardio (sprints). I've lost about 5 pounds and a few inches so far, and I definitely see the difference. I'm looking forward to seeing the results that adding in the cardio give. Oh, and check…
