So the program was 6 days a week 30 minutes a day, with Sunday having the option of either rest or doing Dynamix. I chose to do Dynamix every Sunday as it's a good type of stretching that just prepares your joints and helps you recover better. I've developed such a habit of working out every day anyways, so this wasn't hard.
This program was definitely challenging! Much slow pace than T25 but I loved the variety of it. My favorite was The Challenge, which really was all pushups and pull-ups the whole entire 30 minutes! Just a different variety of each!
My other 2nd favorite program was called Agility X.. and it basically felt like I was training like an elite athlete! Lots of jumps, Plyo type movements that really gets you sweating in 30 minutes! He gives you commands and you move your body in all sorts of directions at a moments notice. My most challenging move from this workout were the Plyo Pushups which of course he puts it right at the end when you're already tired! Here's a little glimpse into my review for this workout!
So Block 1 was 3 weeks long and then I did a transition week which is to help recover from the workouts so that my body can get ready for Block 2 which is also another 3 weeks plus a transition week.
I kept my diet at around a 2200-2400 calorie diet since I did want to gain some weight. I drank Shakeology every day for breakfast as it provides me with my daily dose of dense nutrition. So I knew I was fueling my body with the right kinds of foods every single day. I had 1 cheat meal a week and pretty much stuck with my meal plan throughout the 30 days. I know what my goals are and I just nutrition is very very important. Even though I'm trying to gain some weight, I want it to be healthy weight. I don't want to go back to where I was before because it's very hard to just start over. What I was really proud about as well during this program was adding more weight to what I normally lifted! I tracked my workout on the workout sheets including on the Beachbody website so that I can challenge and push myself harder each time I did the workout each week! I also was pretty detailed noting either the weight was too easy and to go heavier next time or if the weight worked really well and I fatigued enough to still keep my form.
All in all I was very proud how the 1st 30 Days went!
And so I'l stop blabbing and I know everybody just wants to see my Day 30 results so far!! Here it is!!
