Body Beast: Beast Phase End Of Week Two

Finishing week two with cardio tomorrow morning. Lately I have begun to get bored and annoyed with eating that I went to a meat free diet yesterday just to mix it up a bit! Today's meat was grouper. Three fish tacos!

Body Beast and Shakeology BEAST Phase: Day Three

Today was the BUILD: BACK AND BIS! I am definitely burning more calories and I am lifting heavier weights than I did during the first four weeks of BUILD! In the BULK PHASE it felt that I was not burning any calories. If my heart monitor passed 300 calories burned it was very infrequently. Today I was just inder 450 calories! Back tomorrow for another update!

Body Beast And Shakeology Last Phase: Day Two

I tell you what the nutrition in the last phase is super tricky. You have such a high percentage of protein that portable foods are few and far between. Today was reaaly hard as we had an offsite meeting beginning at 1PM. My morning was so busy I dd not have time for my cans of tuna. So I drank a Shakeology and chowed chicken at our eveining dinner! Long story short...not sure of I ate enough. Tomorrow morning at 5AM, 7 hours from now, is Back/BI's. I'll let you know!!

Body Beast And Shakeology Last Phase: Day One

I have gained 7 pounds heading into the last phase of BODY BEAST. So far here are my thoughts:
...I am up a shirt size (small to medium)! THUMBS UP
...Put back an inch on my waist that Insanity and the Ultimate Reset took off THUMBS DOWN
...Love the brute strength involved of pushing weights! Old school PUMPING IRON THUMBS UP
...Really miss the cardio of other workouts (P90X, INSANITY, REVABS)
...Not enough AB WORK! THUMBS DOWN!

These last four weeks will be really interesting as the change in nutrition is dramatic. Basically super high protein and hardly a carb to be seen!
I have decided to increase my Shakeology to twice a day. Gives me additional protein an I am focused and regaining my ABS!
Today was CHEST AND TRIS from the
BUILD phase. Felt really super jacked afterwards!! Day Two tomorrow!

What's in your wallet?

It seems that everywhere you turn someone or some company is promising an easy way to lose weight without exercising. Either a shake, a pill, a belt, or a wrap. In the end if the solution does not involve exercise then run away from that infomercial! Do not waste your money! In this economy we need to keep as much in our wallet as possible. So choose you program or weight loss solution wisely.
