My girlfriend bought me some weights.  :D  I'll start this weekend.

I'm going to bring it, so I can rightly claim that I brung it.

I'm going to leave the torrent running while I'm at work. Seeing friends (RL and online) doing this really encourages me into finally getting into decent shape, so I'm going to give it a shot.

(Note: I'm trying to download, need more seeds!)

Um, an hour and 40 minutes of yoga?? I got time, but not that much time. I did 40 minutes today and in the future will try to block out more time for it. I'm sure it's thorough, but hour and 40 is a bit much...EXTREME, if you will. Haha

Yeah I don't have an 1 hour 40 minutes to spare to do yoga, I'm not a self-depressed chick! :)

That hour forty is better spent on Statics homework. At least during the school semester.

Yeah Yoga is the longest one... My suggestion is if you don't have time for that then is replace it with the Kempo or Cardio.  

Personally I don't like the Yoga but it is good for balance and strenghtining  those muscles that you don't really no exist.

Yoga is actually fairly helpful if you give it a chance. It's definitely not he manliest form of exercise, but at the very least it is really relaxing. And it does help with staying limber and maintaining/improving balance.

I will be doing this with the included nutrition plan.  Doubt I'll use the supplements because I've already got a protein shake I've been taking but if it doesn't look like I'm getting the full effect I might think about it.  

Anyone else doing the nutrition plan and if so which type?

Also I'm curious to know if anyone else took the fitness test and what their results were?  (I'll be taking mine momentarily so I'll post them then)

I am not doing the nutrition plan nor did I do the fitness test. The supplements would be nice but I'm trying to keep my excess spending down right now. I've cut out sweet tea and soda though to help a bit. Keep us updated on how all that together is working for you.

Starting week 2 tomorrow!

Got out of the shower this morning, and severely tweaked my left tricep just trying to dry myself off.  The pain was absolutely intense.

I'm just focusing on arms and back.  My legs always seem to be in tip-top shape, but my arms are weak.  Not doing the nutrition plan because health food around here is extremely overpriced.

When you are starting this please make sure that you work out so that you can continue to work out.  Don't go overboard and push yourelf to hard the first week or two... Use the first week to ease into the routines.
