Howdy peoples!
Well, the first four weeks kinda flew by for me – hard to believe that “Phase 1” is already over. I think that although I “could have” accomplished more, I actually did meet my primary goals: 1) build a fitness base upon which to start REAL workouts!!; 2) work on eliminating the simple sugar (Pepsi and lattes); 3) get in the habit of drinking enough water; and 4) improve nutrition by adding more veggies and fruit every day.
So it was mostly a success. Total weight loss was only five pounds, but body fat percentage went down a bit and my clothes started fitting more loosely here and there. I did 27 days of \”some exercise\”, with the minimum being a 4-mile walk, and including bodyweight exercises, cardio routines (P90 Sweat), weight routines (P90X, The 300, KB Squat presses, Total Gym), and yoga/stretching. Overall, it was a really good start.
I thought about it quite a bit – what to do next – and I decided on a 60-day Beachbody Program called LIIFT4. It’s four days a week, which I find very workable, even with the daily 4-mile walk and with lap-swimming season starting up.
So onwards and upwards – Rip 60, Phase 2, here we come!! Peace and blessings to you all! Coach Jimbo
