Tonganterror: Week 7

Week 7


It really has been 7 weeks now. It's amazing how the time has flown by, and that I am still doing this workout. I am feeling great overall, even though the workouts, are well...a workout. It has been a very fulfilling journey and I'm excited to see what the last half of the program will do for me. Thanks to all who have followed and supported.


Day43—Chest, Shoulders, & Triceps—C an’t feel my arms…tired…great workout.


Day44—Plyometrics—Completely recovered and felt much more spritely during this workout than ever. I’m pretty happy with all the gains in strength and endurance here. I’m still no maniac by any means, but running up and down stairs in the library when copiers are out of paper is much much easier now.


Day45— Back&Biceps—Half way already. It really feels like we just started this program and now it’s already half over. My poor arms and back. I was already sore in my arms when I started this today. The worksheet showed some significant gains in reps today. The exercises are getting much easier, even though we missed last week.


Day46—Yoga X—I was tired and sore when I started Yoga last night. I was glad I went through with it though. My body really needed the stretch and the cardio workout that comes with it.


Day47—Legs&Back—This workout gets harder every week I think. It would seem that the more I am able to do, the more the workout kills me. It is really interesting to me that I feel worse every week, yet experience gains in the amount of reps I am able to do.


Day48—Kenpo X—For the first time, I found this workout extremely difficult. I suppose the extra work on the other workouts this week really wore me down. Whatever the reason, I was exhausted by the time this workout was over.


Day49—Rest—This rest day was long desired and now I am gearing up for the 2nd recovery week I remember the last recovery week being a trail of tears, so I am not optimistic about getting a whole lot of rest this week. Now that we are more than halfway done, there’s no turning back. We will continue on. BRING IT!

  1. Can I say that one of the highlights of this week for me was watching you and Rudy do yoga on Monday? The combination of watching people exercise and eating chocolate cake was incredibly intoxicating.
