Week 3 Day 5 is down! WOOHOO!
Today I wanted to work out in the morning, but I woke up with a kink on the neck and my left calve felt like if I had a cramp on it during the night, it hurt, so I thought I would work out in the evening and by then it would go away. Well it did not go away. But I will say it went away after the warm up, I tried doing some of those warm up moves during the day to solve the issue and did not help LOL not sure what I did different. Oh well important part is I felt better, however I did not want to add weights yet since I wanted to make sure I was really fine and I have two 20s which would make an extra 40lbs to start, not sure if it would be a good idea.
Lets see how I did…

Reading this Chart:
- Last column is the difference in reps since the last time I did this workout:
- Green = More Reps or Seconds
- Red = Less Reps or Seconds
- Second to last column is the goals I had set for myself.
- R = Reps
- S = Seconds
- NC = No Chair Assist
- C = Chair Assist
- RL = Right Leg
- LL = Left Leg
- W = Weight
The workout was also being done when someone was sleeping so again the pull ups I had to try and be quite, very hard. I still did them and still managed to do more in some routines. I will say it is one exercise I am starting to dislike, only because I can’t seem to get better at it yet. I use to be able to do them with out the chair, but I guess in time it will come, so I shall work on it. The wall squat, since I cracked the wall last time LOL, again I tried the door frame, I was able to do a bit more but, the frame starts to hurt more before I give up LOL, will have to figure something out for this. Another thing I would mention here is that there are lots of workouts that all he requests is a certain number of reps so that is all I did. But all in all it was still a very good workout, it felt really good, felt pumped! YEAH! BRING IT!
Lets see how I did on the next workout…

Reading this chart:
- Last column is the difference in reps since the last time I did this workout:
- Green = More Reps than last time
- Red = Less Reps than last time
- F = Forward
- R = Reverse
- RS = Right Side
- LS = Left Side
OK so I took a decision, I wont do more than 50 In & Outs for now, I figured that this gives me a bit more drive to improve on the rest of the routines and it seems to be working. The roll-up/v-up I was counting it wrong, he counts it as 1 when he gets up and touches is toes, then 2 when his legs are up and touches his toes again, I was counting the entire thing as 1, so I will continue to do so (Technically I did 8) LOL. And I still need to work hard on the leg climb. And I brought it on several of them, also brought it a bit at the end with mason twist, I managed to do the 40 he asked, next I will shoot for the bonus ones, and at the end I fell sideways like Tony and grunted like he does LOL. I felt my abs really pumped, they felt awesome! I loved it, because I am hoping this means I can say good bye to the Buddha belly soon. I did notice it is going down and close slowly is starting to feel a little larger on me.
So I did 18 crunches more since last time but for those who are wondering I did 216 More since Day 1, YEAH! BRING IT!! :o)
Alright so tomorrow I have Kenpo X, this will be fun! I love this routine.
Thank you for your time, and remember to always workout even if your wall is cracked LOL
