Can CH #2 be the same as CH #1? Should I go by the book like I did for CH #1? Won't my muscles get too used to the same exercises?


For the interim few weeks I'd suggest pulling a few of the workouts off of abcbodybuilding.com - up top of their page there's a section with workouts, they are very well thought out and planned and fun - and painful ;) You'll find the place a wealth of information.

You can do C2 the same as C1, but I would recommend changing the exercises - I would recommend changing them every 4/5/6 weeks, frankly. Again, www.exrx.net and ABC have demos of exercises for different body parts - one of the keys to growth is change! Change is good! :)

Viva Mexico and Hawaii !!!!!

BFL CH 1, Week 11, Day 6!

I cannot believe I am starting Week #12 on Sunday. Am I going to actually (gulp) weigh myself when this Challenge is over?
Hhhhmmmm.

I will happily measure! I squeezed into a size 12 yesterday.
:)

Ok...Back to business...

Today's w/o: UBW-hit 10's! Added more weight to 3 exercises.
Feeling good.

BFL CH 1, Week 11, Day 7

Elliptical glider: 20 minutes; 3.5 miles! Hit 10's definitely!
Great work-out.

BFL CH 1, Week 12, Day 1!

LBW: Wow! What can I say? Best LBW work-out ever! I added weight & hit 10's & wore some ankle weights while doing exercises & FEEL it today!
:)

BFL CH1, Week 12, Day 2:
Aerobics; 20 minutes; Elliptical glider; 3.5 miles!

BFL CH 1, Week 12, Day 3.

Best w/o ever!
:)

UBW: Hit 10's on everything! I'm not sure if this is due to my excitement over finishing CH 1 or the fact that I "carbed up" a bit on Sat/Sun?

Anyway...I feel fabu!

BFL CH 1, Week 12, Day 5!

Last LBW for my first challenge; Ah...Bittersweet.
:)

Hit 10's.
Celebrated with a protein shake made with a bit of coffee, water, some cream, cinnamon, & raspberries with a big scoop of glutamine powder.

YUMMY!

January 31 & February 1:
No w/o's.

We had a very sad week...My sons best friends father passed away from cancer. I am not feeling too good...Fighting the flu...Resting my body.

I did tally up my BFL CH 1 results...In my journal.

I am looking to start my mini pre-Hawaii challenge tomorrow if I feel better.

P.S...I tried to add the picture here but I have to change it to upload it twice.

2/2/03:

Chest, Shoulder, & Tricep w/o:

4 exercises for each with 12 reps each & then a super set at the end of each body part.
(I'm using exercises from abcbodybuilding (thanks Nat) & two books; "Sculpting Her Body Perfect" & the "Body Sculpting Bible for Women" (thanks Pam)

Whey protein shake afterwards made with water, protein powder, dash of unsweetened cocoa, cinnamon, splenda, 1/4 C. raspberries & a scoop of glutamine.

Yesican Mon, Feb-03-03 11:12

I have a cold & feel miserable.
Whine, whine, whine.

I did manage a LBW of sorts...Certainly no 10's but I accomplished something. Today was supposed to be a cardio day but I couldn't even imagine getting on the glider today.

I think this is my body's way of saying, "What are you doing? You finished BFL Ch 1 & where is my week off?!"

It's coming!!! Two weeks from Thursday...ALOHA!
:wiggle:

Yesican Wed, Feb-05-03 07:13

2/6: Day Off (still feeling crummy)
2/7: Elliptical glider...20 minutes...3.5 miles.
2/8: Day off: Still feel crummy.

Yesican Sat, Feb-08-03 21:32

2/8...Continued...Starting feeling better...Did an UBW.
Not at 100% but close.
:)

Still trying out new exercises in anticipation of starting CH 2 in March.

Yesican Sat, Feb-15-03 18:46

My poor neglected gym log!
This is what no BFL will do to ya!

I have worked out. I am doing the glider & practicing new exercises in anticipation of BFL CH 2 which I will start on March 9.

Aloha.
