I finally made it! I never thought this day would come any sooner! All the hard work and tears paid off! It was quite a journey and I must say I couldn't have done it without my family friends and loved ones. on WEDNESDAY 12/12/12 was the day I got pinned aka graduation. Our school only offers graduation once a year which is towards the...
It's been quite a while since I posted anything here. I am STILL doing TAPOUT XT however I took a week off of it the end of august, I was transitioning into going back to school in the bay area. It's my very last semester of Nursing school, I graduate in December! I'm super excited for that. I've been doing pretty well about...
We've hit the 30 day mark. Time for progress pictures. Only lost 2 lbs.. 11 inches in this month.. However, you can tell the difference between the before and after pictures and my progress. 2 more months to go!! ...
Before I speak about food, DAY 30 was ripped conditioning + ultimate abs. Ripped conditioning remind me of Strength and force upper xt. Using mostly bands. Didn't monitor how much I lost, I should've. Ordered some powdered Peanut Butter on amazon, got the chocolate PB and the PB for $10. It tastes amazing with my herbalife shakes!! mm... I look forward to drinking it. SNACKS:...

So far i've only lost a total of -2lbs and 11 inches. didn't lose much.. Workout summary of the night. After plyo tried out the sand bag for a few minutes. Pretty fun. ...
I received my Ultimate Sandbag Yesterday (Saturday) And I was so excited!! My boyfriend and I filled our sandbags with Quikrete Play Sand that we got at LOWES. The Sand isn't provided with the sandbag, because It would make shipping more expensive due to the weight. This is a 50lb bag and cost $4.60. WE bought 2 of these. I got the pink...
I sweated more than usual in this workout today. Idk what it was, maybe the AC wasn't on but my shirt was just covered in sweat. Afterwards we did some 8 min abs level 2 on youtube. That pretty much sums my workout for Saturday. I prefer working out in the mornings rather than at night. ...
On Friday we made it a rest day for tapout xt. But instead of resting, I went on the treadmill ran one mile and walked the rest. Afterwards I did Insanity Pure Cardio. I needed to get my workout in.. lol. Here's an overall summary of the calories burned and max and avg HR. I really love my POLAR FT7. All together on Friday's workout I burned 489 calories. Not too bad. I need...
In addition to this morning's exercise: TAPOUT XT SPRAWL AND BRAWL I decided to have a late night 30 minute total workout, because I gave into my cravings.. ugh I so have to RESIST all these unhealthy good looking food... My mom brought home MANNY'S fried chicken, I only had one piece.. usually i'd have 3 pieces with a garlic bread a potato wedge and...
I think this is my favorite. I love the fighting moves, kicking punching stuff. Takes me back to when I used to do Taekwondo. I believe this was 40 minutes long. But within that 40 mins I burned nearly 400 calories. I think this is my favorite one so far. As for results, i've been noticing more results in my upperbody. Not so much...
Today was buns and guns. It was only 31 minutes long. I would have to say this is the most least challenging of all workouts in the program so far. It was nice, but I would've wished for more dripping sweat. Since it was also still our first time doing it, we were still getting use to the moves. Today was buns and...
I've been wanting to try out these Body Rock exercises for the longest, maybe since last summer. I also bought the gym boss interval timer a year ago but never touched it. I finally got a chance to try out two of the workouts today called DRIPPING WITH SWEAT- REAL TIME TRAINING + SUMMER SIX PACK. Within 25 minutes, I already burned 211...
I want to try doing sandbag exercise. I wanted to get a barbell at first.. but maybe a sandbag will do? Any suggestions? Just want to incorporate weight training into my exercise for a toner body. ...
Today is WEEK 3 DAY 5 of TAPOUT XT. LEGS AND BACK for me. I also went for a jog on the treadmill because I need sorta get some training in for the NWM in October. I'm still not the fastest long distance runner, probably my miles are about 11-12 min.. Was hoping someday i'd get to 10-9 min/miles. Any tips and trips? I...
I feel like i'm getting a lot toner in my upper body area. I've also noticed my cellulite on my thighs are slowly disappearing. Not a dramatic change, but there little change! Slowly but surely! ...
This has a lot of cardio, hence the name CARDIO XT. It was a bit challenging only because it was a new workout of week 2. Sprawl and Brawl and Cardio XT alternate every week. Sprawl and Brawl was much more fun. I also didn't perform as well as I should have, due to a blister on my foot. I thought it was...
Here's a picture of me back in '08 weighing 112. Oh how i'd kill for that body again. I was also wearing my 7 for all mankind jeans size 26. by the look of it, they fit me pretty loosely. oh the days. ...
This afternoon I did Insanity Plyo Cardio Circuit. Yesterday I did the fit test. I'm still debating whether or not I should do Insanity, along with TAPOUT XT as a hybrid. However, I know when I start school again, I probably won't have time to fit in 2 workouts in one day. We will see!! My motivation is to look fantastic for my...
Today has been the end of week 2 and beginning of week 3 from starting my Herbalife Nutrition, and also i'm on Week 2 day 4 (day 11) of my TAPOUT XT WORKOUT. I met with my herbalife coach today and she checks my weekly weight and measurements. So far I've lost a total of about 2lbs and 11.5 INCHES!! END OF WEEK...
would love to have a stomach like this.. SOON! It annoys me when females are so afraid to lift weights because they think they'll end up super muscular, but lifting weight gets you toned and burns the fat! Cardio helps you lose weight but you still may have that excess skin. Weight lifting will get rid of that and get you toned.
