ChaLEAN Extreme Update...
I finished Phase I of ChaLEAN Extreme. YAY me!! I don't think that there have been any changes other then I am starting to feel stronger and I could do almost all of the burpees (which I HATE!) and I am getting better with my form. I don't see a drop in weight in my face. I did notice that in other before and after pics from other people that day 30 picture does not have that much change and even in day 60 picture there was not that much change BUT on day 90 there was a HUGE change! So I am not discouraged that my pants are not just dropping off me! LOL It will come if I keep going plus it has only been 30 days. That is such a short time. I officially started Phase II TODAY. It was not as hard as I thought. It was hard. Have not doubt about it. BUT I had previewed it and already had an idea how heavy of a weight I was going to use to start. Its only 28 minutes after the warm up. AND my son did the workout with me, just CE!!
Goal #2-Add Cardio
Ok for Phase I I did very little cardio because I was just learning the program and I was not very strong plus my nervous-ness of the knee issues. So my Goal #2 was add as much cardio as I can in Phase II. Today I did the first day-Push Circuit #1 and added Fat Blaster/Turbo Jam. It was tough but not so tough that I could not finish. I did mainly low impact because of the Push Circuit and because the steps of this workout are not easy. The camera is not always on Chalene so I have to watch others at a weird angle at times. It was fun because she makes it FUN but I need some serious practice. I also found on her website www.turbokick.com that she has other cardio sessions on YouTube (which I joined today!) So I am trying to have a variety of cardio to use. Tomorrow is rest and then on to more Phase II! I feel very good about this and myself. I am proud that I am committed to this now. This is different then other other times. I can FEEL it!
Starving!
I don't really like food because it has been the bane of my existance for some time (10 years anyway). I am desperate for vatiety and overwhelmed with the choices. I feel so unorganized with food planning. To add to this I have been getting hungrier. Granted I was warned by Chalene and her crew but I could actually HEAR my stomach after my workout! What the??? I only had a bite before I worked out and definately drank my water. I did have a good breakfast after my workout. I only have a couple of bites before hand because I don't want a full stomach to work out with. I think that this is where the Shakeology will help me. I just want something I can zip together and just drink.
Tomorrow back to work!!
Ciao!
