One more week down! Well…by the time I’m getting this posted I’m finished with week 6 and on week 7. I’ll combine week 6 & 7 on the next review. =)
Quick recap, the first 3 weeks of this program you repeat the same workouts each week. The 4th week is a transition week with totally different workouts, working on isometrics, pilates, yoga and other similar workouts. Then weeks 5 – 7 are another set of workouts repeated for these 3 weeks.
I am really enjoying these workouts, they are a little more intense I’d say than the first 3, well really 4 weeks. You rotate through the week between upper and lower body focused workouts, plus yoga in there and then an MMX workout. Loving the 30 minute workout and really pushing within those 30 minutes to maximum intensity and then done!
By the time some people are making their drive to the gym, I’ve already gotten mine done in the convenience of my home. ;-) That’s one reason I decided to start working out from home in the first place. My children were younger at the time and I was working outside of the home, I already spent a ton of time away from home and my babies. I didn’t want to waist any more time than I had to but I wanted to get in shape at the same time.
It’s called worker smarter, not harder in the workouts and by getting them done at home. I know, I know…many say they need a partner or someone there to push them…but I’ve found that most of the time it’s really just an excuse, and when you plug into an accountability group online like I do. Or you make helping others your ‘job’ in a sense, sharing to help motivate yourself and others…you can’t help but not get motivated.
Motivation will not just fall upon you. You won’t just wake up and feel motivated all of a sudden. You create your own motivation and momentum by taking action. And then if you plug into others on the same path, you create even more! It’s an awesome thing!!
Here’s the review with some clips from week 5’s workouts.
