thanks..it won’t be easy b/c I don’t want to focus on the scale. I’m just going to follow the plan EXACTLY as outlined and see how it goes!
Shelley and Roy- Feel free to find me on Facebook (Rebecca Bargeloh)I’ve been debating how I’m going to do it. I work A full time job as well. I fhink I’m gkong TJ so the weights and cardio in the am on some days.
Hi !
I was One of those people when I was in my 20s who could eat whatever i wanted I never gsinsed a pound. I was A busy college student, working and then a nurse which kept me busy
I stsrted “Playing” in the gym when i was About 27-28. I had No clue what i was doing. I was Self taught so to speak learning as I went
I was In and out of out of the gym for a few years and then stopped when I got a new job. I gained A bunch of Wright around age 31.I decided in 2010 to get on a better track. I got into CrossFit type wornkris and found a new group of friends with similar i terrsts My one friend said have you ever thought about competing ? I had No idea what that even meant. She said you have the muscle deffijiron to be a great figure competitor. So i hired A trainer at the gym and gave a try. I prepped For 9 weeks (i was Already in great shape from CrossFit) and placed 5th in my first show and 4th plaxe a year later.
Then life got in the way. Or i jist Lost motivation.
I ztarted Training with Nicole in sept 2014 and she got me into amazing shape again. Then i got Off track with travel for work a d bad food choices.
I went To phat camp last year and it was amazing. It sparked my motivation again. And i loce Doing these challenges. I need Structure.
So here I am at age 40 giving it 110%. Here are some photos of my long term goals. Let’s do this ladies !!!
I just focus on the heart rate guidelines listed in the program. I have Asthma and if i put The stepmill on level 15, i would Prob fall off (yep I’m prob that person! Lol)
As long as my heart rate is where it needs to be, i go with it. Ovetind i habe To increase the intensity to get my heart rate up bc it adapts.
Good luck !!! Get stepping !?I made mine last night and really pressed them down on the wax paper. I did (By mistake) leave them in the freezer for longer than 40 min but they came out ok.
So, I ‘m not very creative on IG but here I am rbargeloh 🙂
I love These challenges and can’t wait to see everyone’s progress!!!!My understanding of the program for phase 2 is
2 Days HIIT plus 10 min of steady State
2 Days of steady state or interval
1 cardio accel day.
I think The calendar is prob made as a reminder to add the SAWait a min girl … we gotta get through phase 1 first. Let’s focus on that !! ?
SS is steady state cardio. The definitions between SS, HIIT and Interval are all explained in the program.
In previous challenges … at the end of the day you should be within 5 grams of your total macros
Example: Protein goal 130 … then you’d want to be within 5grana of 130The spider curls are similar to the preacher curls in my opinion which you can do at home if you have a bench or at the gym.
My gym is busy too so sometimes I just do the best I can with what I have. I’m not sure which specific day you are referring to but if I’m doing a superset with dumbbells and a machine I take the dumbbells with me. You have to do what works for you. And if you don’t feel you are doing the exercise appropriately, pick another one similar to it. There are alternatives listed underneath each video.
I’m disappointed in your “I’m not Nicole Wilkins so I can’t save my equipment for the next set” comment. You don’t think she (and others) have been in your same position before with a busy gym and have to do the best they can with what they have? I know I have. It happens to everyone. I just deal with it. Not everyday will be a perfect gym day. If only…that were the case.
Hang in there everyone!!!! I know it can be very frustrating when the scale doesn’t move or seems to barely move at all. I didn’t lose as much the second week but I’m still seeing changes. I encourage you to take progress pics and measure. good luck!
At the start of week three, I’m down 6.4 lbs and 6.25 inches. Taking progress pics really helps!!! If you are not doing it, give it a try! Here’s to week three!!!!!! 🙂
I was hungry at first (ready to chew off my arm) but now my body had adjusted to the intake and I find I’m rarely hungry. Today is a low carb and rest day for me so my last meal is at 3pm. I keep busy in the evenings and drink water/unsweet tea.
I just rewatched the welcome video and I think it has your answer in there!
I believe you do not increase the weight each set.The calories may be off depending on the brand of food you have, but that seems like a lot. What meal plan are you following? If you post a screen shot of your daily meals, I can help you figure it out.
