    At the top of the giant set it says to complete 4 rounds.
    I am one day behind this week so I’ll do the Wednesday workout tomorrow (Thursday) … MY QUESTION….. why are a fee people on the FB GROUP page talking about doing only 5 reps? Maybe that was the person that was running out of time and couldn’t complete the whole workout?? Hmmm. I’ll do this workout Thursday (better get to sleep!!) Wish me luck!!

    I always eat my overnight oatmeal cold. It’s like a yummy breakfast pudding. One of my favorite things!! I made 2 tonight for the two High calorie days! Can’t wait to wake up and have breakfast!! Thanks for this awesome recipe!

    Hmmmm… no landmine attachment. Wondering if I can use just the corner of the room and just stick a pillow or yoga mat in a corner to help the barbell rotate smoothly? Hmmm…. trying to think of ways I can make this work from home. Any ideas of a work around?

    Thanks @djrosebrough – It comes out to basically the same. I think I had a warm up and cool down built into my numbers. I think 30 work/5 rest @ 12 rounds — comes out to the same as my 35 work/35 rest x 6 rounds. 🙂 But…Question — Are we supposed to rest in between rounds? I’m not seeing anything about rest. I was inquiring about one of the other (I think it was Body (Don’t) Wait – I asked if there was supposed to be a REST in between rounds and was told — nope – not unless I had to. I’m thinking the intent is to continue on and rest only if needed. 🙄😣

    When I enter 35 sec. work and 35 sec of rest – 6 sets x 5 rounds — total time is 34:25 minutes. Does that sound right?

    Well, for me, I’m not going that heavy. Additionally, the workout doesn’t call for a rest and Naomi had confirmed – no rest… just keep going. Also, I didn’t track my time for the warm up. I started tracking time once I started round 1.

    DIFFERENT LEG DAY QUESTION —- Took me less then 20 minutes — 16 to be exact. Doing all 5 rounds – as described – Round 1 is 10 reps; Round 2 is 8 reps – Round 3 is 6 reps – Round 4 is 4 reps and round 5 is 2 reps…. this took me less then 20 minutes. I used dumbbells…. Did I do this correctly? Only 16 minutes?

    As I’m planning my meals for the upcoming week — and looking at Meal Plan 1- Meal 3 has Whole Wheat Pasta w/lean ground turkey — but when I log in MFP, the whole wheat pasta has has about 36g of carbs – for 50g of whole wheat pasta. In phase 2, our meal carb limit is 21g per meal. Adding in the cheese, tomato – this meal is 41 grams of carbs. What do you think? Is this ok?

    Is this right?

    I think we need to calculate as follows – (think percentage of a minute.)
    :30 seconds x3 is (.5×3) = 1.5 minutes
    :45 seconds x3 is (.75×3) = 2.25 minutes
    :60 seconds x 3 is (1.0×3) = 3 minutes

    1.50
    2.25
    3.00 =
    6.75 TOTAL minutes per Interval
    X 3 intervals = 20.25 minutes.

    Yes.. makes sense to me. Is there a rest between the 5 rounds?

    Yes.. it was a good soreness. I think it was maybe the Hyperextensions – Day 3 – Leg Day. 🙂 That is a new exercise for me! I tell you.. that last tri-set on Leg Day is a KILLER!!! Whew! 🙂 I secretly LOVE IT!!!

    PLAN #1 — When i log the BLT – meal 3 – option 1 in MFP, the FAT macros are 17g and protein us only 14g.
    I have noted from nicole’s plan for PLAN #1 that fat grams per meal are about 11g & protein grams are about 25 per meal. Just wondering about discrepancy. I know this isn’t going to be exact but wanted to ask.

    RICE BOWLS!! Following Nicole’s Meal Plan 1 – Meal 3/option 2 – I prep protein (chicken & sirloin) and prep brown rice. I weigh out 4oz. of protein and 100grams of brown rice and pick your veggies to add (zucchini, broccoli, green beans, onions, spinach, etc..etc.) Then season for whatever you are feeling that day – Craving Chinese food? Just add a bit of ginger and Braggs Liquid Aminos. Craving Mexican? Add a bit of cumin, chili powder or any Mexican seasoning mix + a spoonful of organic salsa. Or maybe you use a basic Mrs. Dash Italian Seasoning or Lemon Pepper! The options are endless!!
