A quick review of Week 3 this week as its a holiday weekend over here in the UK!
Week 3 has been really great and definately the strongest I have felt since I started the programme. Both workouts went very well and I also managed to get in an additional 30 Min interval session on Tuesday and Thursday on the bike.
Did the Bodyweight 200 on Saturday morning and managed to get it done in 13 mins so was very pleased. And I finished off with another 20 min interval session on the treadmill.
I am definately beginning to see the benefits in terms of strength as I am able to do a lot more reps of each of the excercises than when I first started.
For instance, I could only manage 1 or 2 chin ups when I started whilst this week I managed to do all 5 in a row. Like wise for the Inverted rows. Was struggling to do 8 in the beginning and now I am doing at least 12. This week I am going to add dumbells to the lunges and step ups etc for extra wight and resistance.
I am also beginning to see the benefits in terms of my body. I was planning to take pics next week after week 4, but decided to take some pics today to see if there is any difference.
To be honest I was completely amazed when I saw the before and after shots.
I have uploaded the pics to my profile page so you can take a look. You can definately see a big difference in my legs and upper body. The love handles are in decline and you can already see more muscle definition.
I must admit I was a bit dubious when I started the program and was not really expecting to see a big difference until week 7 or 8. I was definately not expecting to see the results coming through as quick as they have done so I am really pleased to see the impact it has had in just 3 weeks and can only imagine what the result will be after 8 weeks!
So bring on week 4!
