Sharing for my fellow fit people that have either allowed themselves to get out of shape and are trying to get back in (like myself) or you’re a newbie that needs some guidance. This has been my Bible for a week now…I’ve never been so sore but it’s worth it
He not only lays out your work outs for you, you also get a video of each work out. You can event print out each work out or in my case I sync the pdfs to my phone which keeps me on track in between sets.
Unfortunately during my first week, somehow I gained 2lbs. Everyone is telling me it’s muscle but not too sure if I believe it. I think I knew in the back of my mind that I’m not going hard enough and I’m not eating clean enough. I need to increase the intensity of my cardio, eat way better and lift heavier. If I don’t see a loss this week I’m going to be pissed.
Artichoke Pesto:
1 1/4 cup(s) canned artichoke hearts, without oil, drained and rinsed (about 5)
1 clove(s) (medium) garlic clove(s), quartered
1 1/4 cup(s) basil, packed
1/4 cup(s) pine nuts, toasted*
*Toast the pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium-low heat until…
I did a quick 15min NTC workout today after work. It’s called the “Cardio Killer” workout. If you have an iPhone, you can download the NTC app for FREE. I promise you, your body will love you once you begin working out with NTC.
My particular workout today was amazing. I was basically moving fast for 15minutes. The hardest move for me to do was the ‘Alternating Froggers’ because I got tired quickly but was able to recover. This workout will get your blood flowing and mind focused.
Tomorrow, I will be at a 1hr body sculpt class at the gym at 6am. I honestly wasn’t planning to go but because I have a free week pass, I figured it wouldn’t hurt. Plus, water in my street is out from 11pm tonight until 10am tomorrow. I can already see the water changing colour (I just turned the tap in my bathroom on). Anyway, I prefer showering in the mornings and I can’t do without that - well, I already showered tonight but tmr will be a long day so I need to shower in the morning. And I can shower at the gym.
WORK, STUDY, EXERCISE, EAT, SLEEP (my basic routine).
Goodnight y’all ^_^
