Week 4

I began my fourth week of Phase I on Sunday.  I can definitely tell a difference in the strength I've built in my core.  I'm pushing through the pushups (not from my knees) and getting better on the balance ball.  I feel like I know the routines fairly well and am pretty comfortable with each workout.

In staying true to the program by listening to my body, I feel like I'll be ready to move on soon.  I haven't been sore each week like I'd been previously and I feel like my core has strengthened enough to continue on. I'm not sure that I need a full recovery week, but I will probably do 3-4 days of the recovery schedule just to see what it's all about.

Damien has already moved on to Phase II and from the looks of those workouts, I have my work cut out for me.   I'm looking forward to the soreness I will feel after completing the new routines and "confusing my muscles."  I'm also looking forward to changing the diet up a bit and adding a whole carb into my menus.

Day 30 pictures are next week and I'll be happy with my progress when I can see real results in the photos, no matter how small they may be.

Until  next time...
