Would love Atkins 40 friends
I'm not new to Atkins but I'm starting it again to lose some weight after a carby bulk that went on waaaaay longer than intended because, well, more carbs & food.

Can they be done daily? They are on my strength training video workout ( do 2 X weekly) and on JM 30 day shred, which I want to start doing 2x a week. Should I wait a day between the two different tapes or can I do them back to back? The strength training I do with as much as I can handle with resistance bands. JM is using…
