no no, what you stuff in your face is important.
every thing counts and will help contribute to your goal.
<----recently went from 180 to 155lbs. and holding steady at 155-158lbs for a couple of months now, without doing any thing extra except for watching what I put into my mouth.
breakfast is important, and I suggest steel cut oats! EVERY Morning!!!!
it has fibers and proteins and is a slow digesting carb, which means you'll have energy and be fuller longer.

I'm about healed from a sprained ankle and will be taking my cardio game up a notch.
weight isnt so important to me, but body fat is.

 

I was making a funny to not eat candy and other crap but thank you for the advice. I hate oats so that's probably not likely that I'd eat that haha.

Day 2 down and I felt like I was going to die haha. Anyone have a good solution to avoid the dizzy feeling 3/4 of the way through the workout? I had to stop for a good 10 minutes just to catch my breath before continuing.

I won't do daily updates anymore but just looking for a suggestion on the dizziness.

 

Halfway through first week update: I can feel that my endurance is really improving every day and my abs are sore all the time. I had to skip a day to get on the schedule I wanted but I'm back at it and just did the first cardio recovery. Ready to finish out week 1 and start noticing more changes.

Notes:
- Found that taking a sip or two of powerade throughout the workout helps with the dizziness, I must have a high sensitivity to sugar levels.
- Tanya is a bitch.
- Ariel is really hot.

 

Anyone doing these workouts or any other workouts and looking for good results needs to go buy a foam roller ASAP. Rolling out all the sore areas such as quads, lats, and calves will help you recover faster and workout harder which will give you much better and faster results.

 

Did not know this. Thanks!

 

Two weeks in so time for an update.

Did the second fit test on Thursday last week and noticed huge gains all around in terms of endurance and strength over what I was at to begin with, I'll post actual results when I get home. So far I've noticed quite a bit of fat trimming around my body and hopefully the next two weeks steps that up even more. Hitting it as hard as possible every day gets tough on my body and my lower back gets super sore about 15 minutes into a workout. Thinking it's time to take some advil beforehand to pre-treat that issue. Also hoping that the next few weeks will help everything get stronger, especially my abs since I'm pretty much dying after the cardio abs routine.

Notes:
- My legs are getting bigger, like substantially. Not fat but muscle, it's making my pants not fit all that well anymore.
- My waist is getting smaller, lost 6lbs in the first two weeks which translated to ~0.5in off my waist. It's also making my pants not fit all that well anymore.
- I'm seeing a lot of fat loss in my arms, legs, and starting to see it in my face. I have button up shirts that I can now button the top button that I could never do before. Guess this is normal as your body uses fat from the outside in. Happy to see this starting to happen this soon so that my core fat will be next.
- One of the biggest things I've found is that you have to use your core as much as possible even outside of the workouts. Helps to suck the gut in and use your core and your back vs just your back.
- Tonya is still a bitch, but now even worse. She has nothing to say except "woo!" and the occasional "work it out" which basically means she thinks she's better than you.
- Ariel is still hot. Add Liz and Adriana to the list.

Week three started on Thursday and I'm still sticking with the schedule, looking forward to the remaining 75% of this hellish two months.

 

Yes tonya is a bitch, but realize this. She got fat and I now doing the "modifier" moves in Shaun T's focus T25

 

Ain't that a bitch, I've been working out and dieting pretty consistent the past year. And I still got this gut

Doesn't seem to go away or get any smaller.

I've cut back as much sugar as possible. Lowered my carb intake and upped my fiber as well.

Yesterday I was buying some new cloths and

 

^ what are your workouts like?

 

I've done insanity, tapoutxt and p90x the past year. Just been stuck. Lost like 60lbs when I started in 2012 and been stuck since may/june

 

Maybe it's time to step it up a little. I hear Insanity Asylum is even more...insane. Way harder than any other video workout.

 

What's your diet like? Do you have a sampling of your typical nutritional metrics? ie calories, and grams of carbs, protein, fats, consumed each day?

If not, track what you eat for a week without making any changes to how you're eating. PM it to me along with your height, weight, and activity levels and I'll see if I can help.

Insanity Asylum is the toughest at home video series IMO. My wife has it along with p90x and the regular insanity and I've tried all of them just to see what they're like.

 

Quick update. Life happened over the past week (which was supposed to be week 4) and as such I wasn't able to get all the workouts in. Because of that, I'm going to repeat week 4 in preparation for the intense pain that will be month 2.

Notes:
- Still making gains, stomach is down substantially, overall tone is better, endurance is way up, etc.
- I wish they would add in cardio abs more often than the once a week or whatever it is. I've added it after workouts on my own but that's a great program in itself. Going to try and do it at least 3-4 times during the rest week.
- Found that my ankles are starting to really hurt during these workouts, will be buying a brace to help with that. I've always had weak ankles so this isn't so much of a surprise.

My wife comments all the time that this is the skinniest I've been since we started dating but I feel as though I still have a long way to go and I'm excited to get there. The biggest motivation is seeing results.

 

Awesome,
For mean I can't do insanity that much anymore because bad knees. Runs in the family and the many years of being fatter having its toll on them.

 

Repeat of week 4 completed and recovery week started yesterday. I actually like the core cardio and balance routine and might even continue to do it after I finish out the 60 days.

I'll try and take pics of progress.

 

Just finished week one of month two and I almost died. Pretty much felt like the previous 4 weeks meant nothing haha. I can only imagine what would happen if one were to just jump into month two and skip month one.

 

good job man, keep it up.

 

Thanks dude, really appreciate it. After struggling through week one I decided to take some extra time off and complete some home projects. I'm going to start month two over this week and hammer through it to be done by July. This two month project is going to take me three months but it'll still be worth it in the end.
