My friends have been asking me how the program is going, I don't like to do status updates daily about working out so I'll try to keep the updates going here.
Today is the first day of the Challenge Group I joined. We are supposed to take our pictures each phase, take measurements weekly, and then report in on Facebook that we did the daily workout and drank the daily shake. No need to upload pictures to the group - it is just for accountability and motivation. To be in the challenge group, you could pick to do just the workout, just drink the shake, or do both.
I purchased a Challenge Pack so I'm doing both. I started the DVDs sporadically a few weeks ago and I've seen the improvements in just this short time period of working out 3-4 times a week. It helped make the goal more achievable and today's Day 1 start was still a workout, but I was able to do a bit 'more' and not just follow along with Tanya the modifier.
While I haven't lost any actual weight yet, my arm and thigh measurements have improved and my stamina and speed has increased. Other big improvements I see include my energy levels going up and I don't get as cranky easily. I like it better than P90x or Insanity because I still work up a sweat and it seems more manageable in my schedule to carve out 25 minutes between conference calls than committing 60-90 minutes.
Happy to report in to start the challenge that Day 1 - Alpha Cardio + Vanilla/Espresso Shakeology complete!
Check back tomorrow to see if I managed to do Day 2!
