Shawn, no I haven't seen the infomercials yet. I'll creep the Beast page on FB. Jeff, nice work given your crazy schedule. I doubt you have time to add some cardio to buy some calories back, but that is an option I give myself. Bulk Chest for me, I sure like this DVD as nothing snaps, crackles or pops during this routine.…

Good day for water and nutrition. Beast Total Body and Abs, I had a good work out. I did 30 minutes on the treadmill. I'm thinking Insanity is pulling my intensity down down, I'm going to ease up just a bit so I don't jeopardize my Beast workouts.

B on water and Nutrition Fail on workout. Too many distractions, really sore from yesterdays workout and some respiratory crap. I've got all the excuses today. I'll turn in early and have a better day tomorrow. I had this idea that at the top of my overhead presses to add a shrug with a squeeze to engage some new…

Great work Jeff!

Nutrition, D Water, C Build Shoulders and Insanity Plyo Cardio, A Faded fast on the Insanity workout and unusually sore and tight. I think the kids gave me the lung crud. As far as cutting goes, my weight hasn't dropped much. However the tape has been moving, almost 3/4 inch off my waist already. The higher protein diet…

Jfearn, Good to seeing you posting with your hectic schedule. Sagi has the "Asian Sensation"; we have "Spot On Shawn", nice work with the str8 As. Build Back and Bis for me. Another nice change from the Bulk grind, it feels good to change up the routines. I also did Insanity Pure Cardio, to buy back some calories.…

C4Z, I don't know about notifications I just log every day. Workout Bulk Legs and Insanity Cardio Recovery, I was over on calories again and needed the extra work. Water, 12 cups Nutrition, I was doing well...but the Mrs had warm chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven. My Carbs were still on, but my fat was 3% high.

C4Z, Insanity and Bulk Legs? Wow, way to bring it! I'm mixing in some Insanity, but not on leg day. Shawn, I plan on doing a second round but with my HS kids. If I can get one to agree to do it during the soccer season I'll start back March 1, he needs a 20 pound gain in the next year. Workout: Build Chest and Tris, it was…

Helping your friend is the right thing to do. Bulk Shoulders. It wasn't a very good work out. I had several good ones with the new 40s and I think I over did it. I'm pretty sore and stiff. Water wasn't too bad, 12 cups. Nutrition, wasn't very good about 33% all the way around and 400 calories over. I got my calories back…

Welcome Fernando. Congrats on finishing Insanity, the beginning of the second month about crushed me. You'll enjoy the the change up.

Daba, one only has to watch their news feed to know how much you like your cardio. I never felt as though I liked it, but I do miss it. Keep at it! I don't see much for lower body results for myself either. Arms and Abs today. I wasn't very strong today for some reason, strange for a morning workout. Nutrition was off, my…

A few beers would be good! Legs and Back for me since last check in, both workouts went great. Nutrition has been very good. Water was behind today, but has been very good lately.

@Shawn, I love that feeling too. I got Bulk Chest in late last night. I had a great workout and worked in my new 40# dumbells in surprisingly well. I was thinking I would never finish the sets but only failed on the upright rows. Nutrition, I've got these macros figured out. I hope I can figure out the next set of macros…

Nutrition and water are going well. Bulk Shoulders today while home with sick kids. I'm hoping I don't catch this crud! The workout was okay, I got it done but I wasn't really in the right mind set. I hope everyone is having a great day!

Bulk Beast Arms and Cardio. I had a great workout, but too many interruptions. Water, 12 cups. Nutrition was within 5% of my goals. Not too shabby, i usually get off on my fat and I finish my protein goal regardless.

Two day check in for me. Yesterday I had an unscheduled day off. Today back on track with Bulk Back. It was a morning workout and those are really satisfying. Nutrition, yesterday was bad; the pizza was awesome. I just need to order less. Today was very good. Water was good both days.

Huge Beast Chest, went a day early to avoid wrestling conflicts tomorrow. I had a good workout, like Jfearn I put extra effort into the squeezes. It was hard to keep pace with the workout when trying to finish the reps with a squeeze. Water, good at 14 cups. Nutrition, only a couple percent off.

Nice work Jfearn, I always laugh when he offers Scotty a hug. How about those Arnold presses? Those really tear me up. Huge Bulk Shoulders 44/90 I got my workout in after 10 P.M. I was amazed how weak I am at night workouts. I had to drop the weights last night. Even with less weight I got a good workout, and being afraid…

Huge Beast Bulk Arms and Abs for me too. I put a lot of effort into squeezing the muscle group being isolated as Sagi asked. I don't think I ever squeezed that hard on every rep. I added 2 sets of v pushups. I stayed on the floor to cool off and woke up 30 minutes later, lol. Nutrition and water was very good today.

Water and Nutrition Well, Exercise not so much. Sunday was just too busy to fit it all in between wrestling and volleyball. It has been two weeks, and is time to report results again. Measurement, Date Taken (11/8, 11/20, 12/8, 12/22, 1/6) Arm 13, 13.5, 13.5, 14.25, 14.25 Calf 14.25 no change Neck 14.5, 14.75, 15, 15.25,…

Checking in, I moved my workouts around to have yesterday off for HS wrestling. Nutrition, good. Water, okay. I think my lack of gain the last two weeks is based on calories. I lowered them 300 after obsessing about my waist, along with the extra 10 pounds never used to determine my daily need. I cut about 1/2 inch off my…

Yes it was hot apple crisp from the oven; at least it was a reasonable portion. I was Coyote hunting with a friend, my first time. I spotted the only coyote on the drive home somewhere we didn't have permission. Jfearn you're motivating the beatle juice out of me, I had a week and a half lead on you now you're just a day…

Bulk Shoulders, another flat workout for me. I spent the day laying in the snow in 5 degree weather hunting. I just wasn't feeling it today. End of this week is half way for me, I think I'm ready for some new routines mentally at least. Water, about 10 cups. Not to bad. Nutrition was going good until the Mrs made homemade…

Back yesterday and Arms & Abs today. I felt strong yesterday, today's workout was a bit flat. My weights didn't improve. Nutrition has been good as has water consumption. Have a good New Years...and back to College Football. Go Iowa State!

Bulk Chest yesterday and Bulk Legs today. Both went great, legs were especially brutal. I'm so much stronger/eager in the morning. Nutrition has been good. Water is going well also.

Jfearn, it doesn't take much effort to see the improvement in your arms and chest. Nice Work. Bulk Shoulders yesterday. Good workout, but my left bicep really hates Arnold presses. I better drag the mirror out and look closer at my technique. Muscle failure in one arm and not the other is awkward on a yoga ball. It isn't…

Happy Holidays, Shawn said it best...besides ourselves who would say 4 days a week of exercise it poor? LOL I'm not going to get mine today or tomorrow, but it is okay. I've been exercising 4 days or more a week since April. My 41st year has been my healthiest ever. I did want to share results, I hope people find them…

Nice job planning ahead Jfearn. Bulk Back for me, I had a good workout. I got the most pull-ups so far with bands of course. Nutrition was alright, I'm still having problems finding lean protein. I want eating to be more simple than it is turning out to be. Water, 6 cups. Meh...

I liked the Tempo workouts. Try them, you'll really feel it. The extra time on the negative set really left me with the shakes afterwards. I wouldn't call them easier, you'll just be more focused on the negative portion of your lift. It takes a lot more focus on the DVD.

Bulk Legs I did well and was able to choose a little higher weights the second time through this routine. I'm still really happy the Bulgarian Split Squats are behind me in the Build Phase; but I have to say Sagi's pace is painful on this routine. I wanted to double up with Legs and Back, but I was pretty well wrecked…
