Legs and back was probably my most uneventful workout to date. I came into the workout a little bit hungry and I think it played with my mind a little because I WASNT as intense on the pullups or the wall-sits as I think I could have been. Wall-sits, for the record, are what one would do in a Lost Eternity...I really really really hate doing them. This whole workout in general (minus the pullups) seems like a good way to build strength in your legs, however mass gain is not really going to happen doing bodyweight exercises like they suggest. I'm tempted to maybe swap out a few exercises with some plain old-fashioned leg presses or squats, and try to blend it in with the rest of the routine...what do you think?
Ab-Ripper is steadily getting better for me and I go deeper and deeper into the routine before tiring, although I only got about 10 reps into the Fifer Scissors before I had to put my legs down this time. Next time I'm shooting for the entire Fifer Scissors exercise...no excuses. (Side Oblique Raises still kicked my A).
I've got Kenpo X this morning and will most likely supplement it with a shopping trip to Costco X. I might have to pick up a new jacket at the Mall X and will probably see if I can meet up with some of my friends later for Supper X.
P.S. I had my first bad-eating day tonight, where I had Pizza with my relatives. Pizza and Nanaimo bars. Pizza and Nanaimo bars while doing ukrainian Pysanky (egg painting with wax, etc etc google it) and a bowl of chocolate covered almonds. I'm not too worried though, since I know for a fact that I don't have nearly enough fat to last me for a whole 90 days of this routine.
Before long you will have the entire dreaded Fifer Scissors routine complete without pause time. You may even find that you are doing them in your sleep :) I love good old fashion squats, they get the job done each and everytime.
ReplyDeleteYes, I googled "Ukrainian Pysanky" and learned some new things today. Thank you!
