I'm gonna bitch beacuse I don't have a camera to give you guys a before and after pic! (I'm in this more for strength and endurance anyways, nicer legs would just be a perk)

I sure will, I'm just out of town at the moment, and the workout log is sitting on my desk at home. I will as soon as I get back, promise!

butterfly · 06-02-2003, 02:46 PM

Damn, my legs are already sore

and it's only going to be worse tomorrow

nikegurl · 06-02-2003, 02:56 PM

my sentiments exactly. not even 24 hours and i'm sore. i think it's gonna be bad.....

and while i'm bitchin' - i forgot how hard the 100 squats were. i mean i knew it was hard but i didn't remember just HOW hard until yesterday. i'm already telling myself - 3 more times. just 3 more times....

Thank goodness!!!

You know what hurts the most is trying to sit on the toilet... and then trying to get up again

butterfly · 06-03-2003, 11:39 AM

Now my butt hurts too

butterfly · 06-04-2003, 06:29 PM

I'm actually feeling a bit better today

nikegurl · 06-05-2003, 11:25 AM

me to. wednesday i started to feel better.

i thought that meant i wouldn't be sore by today. wrong. it's not terrible - but not really any different than yesterday. (still hurts but i'm not dying).

i guess it goes like this:
sunday - nearly die getting through the workout
monday - legs kill
tuesday - legs kill
wednesday - legs hurt
thursday - legs hurt
friday - legs sore (i'm predicting)
sat - legs fine
sunday - do it again

naturaltan · 06-05-2003, 11:37 AM

I'm wondering if stretching would help ...

butterfly · 06-05-2003, 11:59 AM

That's about right for me too NG!!!

NT - I find stretching helps... but nothing helps when you sit in front of a computer for hours and only get up to go to the bathroom or get food out of the fridge

naturaltan · 06-05-2003, 12:06 PM

it's a painful walk to the bathroom ... I find with all the water I drink, the number of times I get to go should be considered a workout.

butterfly · 06-05-2003, 12:22 PM

AMEN!!!

spire · 06-05-2003, 02:04 PM

You guys didn't have to mow a lawn the day after the work out! Now that was a bit painful

Why thank you Jodi!!!

buff_tat2d_chic · 06-11-2003, 02:42 AM

Where are all of the leg challenge people? Not too many writing!! Common guys...for this to work - we have to post AND support the others.

BTW BF...you have done a great job.

butterfly · 06-11-2003, 10:11 AM

Thanks Buff!!! I appreciate that!

Now get your tight little ass to the gym

You haven't met me have you? he he he he lmao

There is NOTHING little about my ass he he he I would say its my "biggest" attribute lmao I am working on it though. It used to fit into a size 24 now it fits an 8-10...not small but definitely smaller

butterfly · 06-11-2003, 11:35 AM

How tall are you? Cause I'd say a size 8-10 is perfect! You don't want to be skin and bones... nothing attractive about that in my book!

spire · 06-11-2003, 11:50 AM

I think I definitly qualify as skin an bones : 6' 1, 157lbs, 31 waist and 36 chest. As a cyclist we tend to be bottom heavy too

nikegurl · 06-11-2003, 01:10 PM

k...can we bitch about lack of pain? i upped the weights on everything and getting through the workout Sunday was hard as hell. but i'm not in pain and wasn't yesterday or Monday either.

first time hurt too much. now i'm bothered that it doesn't hurt!

butterfly · 06-11-2003, 02:00 PM

Don't worry about it NG. I remember the same thing happened last go around.

It's still working even though you don't have the pain. Wait til Phase II, Week 1... you'll be hurting all over again

nikegurl · 06-11-2003, 03:07 PM

thanks butterfly. i was starting to wonder. on the one hand i know i really did bust my ass/legs sunday but on the other i was thinking i'd be less sore but not unsore.

you're right - there'll be plenty of pain to come.

speaking of - is the 1st phase the hardest to get through in terms of just being exhausting in the gym? is there anything up ahead that's as hard as the 100 squats?
