Days 28, 29, 30: Progress!! Plus Chest Shoulders Tris/ARX and Plyo X

21Apr08

I’ve been MIA this weekend, but I do have my 30 Day Progress report.

So I weighed and measured myself on Sunday morning, after another successful mile run on the treadmill. (I’m still shocked at myself that I can actually pull that off!) Anyway, here are my stats:

Weight:
Day 1 - 167.8
Day 29 - 160.6 (down 7.2 pounds)

Chest:
Day 1 - 38 in.
Day 29 - 37 in. (-1)

Waist:
Day 1 - 33 in
Day 29 - 32.5 in. (-.5)

Hips:
Day 1 - 40 in.
Day 29 - 39.5 in. (-.5)

Left Thigh
Day 1 - 24.75 in.
Day 29 - 24.25 in. (-.5)

Right Thigh
Day 1 - 24.75 in.
Day 29 - 24.5 in. (-.25)

Left Bicep
Day 1 - 12.5 in.
Day 29 - 13 in. (+.5)

Right Bicep
Day 1 - 12.75 in.
Day 29 - 13 in. (+.25)

My pictures really show a difference, especially in my arms and waist. I’m starting to slim down and I feel really good. I do have a ways to go, but the pics help me to know that I’m on my way and that my goals are attainable and within reach.

I missed X Stretch on Saturday because I was helping my mom set up her new computer. Then Sunday I was scheduled to do Chest, Shoulders and Tris but I didn’t get much sleep the night before and after running on the treadmill my energy just was depleted. I hemmed and hawed about whether or not I was gonna attempt CST, but I knew that since I was so tired I would just dog the workout and I wanted to give it my all, so I decided to do it this morning along with ARX and do today’s scheduled workout, Plyo, tonight when I get home.

I did the right thing, I think. CST is tough, just endless push ups, all kinds of push ups. My arms were fried when it was all over, they were shaking. I am still getting familiar with which weights to use so I can max out at 10 reps. I did all the push ups on my knees which kinda sucks. I was hoping that I’d be on my toes by this time, but I guess it’s okay considering I’m not even halfway through the 90 days.

Tonight I did Plyo. I had SOOO much energy for it, it was insane. I modified a little bit, but only took one unscheduled break (other than the ones they take). I really rocked it, even the bonus round. 621 calories according to the HRM.

My whole body is screaming right now. My chest, my arms, my hamstrings. I’m gonna sleep SOOO good tonight!
