My climb continues. I can feel the anticipation to reach the end. By now, your body is now used to taking more reps, more weights, squat deeper all the while your mind is absorbing and silencing the earlier months’ desire to give up. Now, you know all about feeling a runners’ high and understand better your true limit. It’s a great feeling.
As the program progresses and this becomes a routine, the weeks also appear to go by quicker. The highlight for the week was how smooth and intense I approached my two Core Synergistic days – all with the exception of the last 20 seconds of bow-to-boat. I can’t say enough about how complete the Yoga and Core Synergistic pair can be. Sprinkle these two with some Ab Ripper X and you have a great toning set. In the not-so-positive category, I find the discipline of eating on a hectic work schedule can be very difficult. Having lunch with your group at work, customers and all the healthy food choices at airports while traveling, yuck :-( In order to stay with some protein bias in my diet, I’ve added one whey shake per workout as a recovery drink. I’ve found that ON 100% WHEY Double Rich Chocolate is absolutely delicious. No chalky taste even with just water and great formulation as I read its reviews. As for the results? I don’t know that the shake has contributed much to muscle gain compared to the workout itself. At least, I feel like I’m nurturing my body with cleaner food.
Lesson learned: Take your health seriously and you will be rewarded. You will regain your body and a lifestyle like you never had.
