I'm in the middle of my "rest" week (still doing cardio tho) and I will begin stage 2 next week

gymell · 03-12-2008, 06:05 PM

Tomorrow I'll be doing Stage 2, workout A4. My rest week will be coming just in time for my trip next week to Vegas, baby!

Don't look at stage 4 then! It repeats stage 2 with more sets and lower reps...

I have one more AMRAP and then I am on to stage 2.

I'm in my rest week now. I'll start Stage 3 on Monday. I think too many people don't take recovery seriously. If you want to be in this for the long haul, want progress to continue, and don't want to become injured, rests or deloads are essential. I still did intervals Tue and today. I'll do mobility work tomorrow and over the weekend. The body needs time to adapt to heavy lifting.

I am definitely taking a rest week. it will coinside nicely with traveling. I'll finish stage 2 on Monday and be done until the Monday after easter.

I'm in Stage 1, Workout #5 of 16 is next. It will be interesting with less reps next week. Definitely going to up the weight more!

I am in stage 3, having completed one workout of A and B. I enjoyed the exercises, but with the rest time, it took a long time to complete. I typically have to do the intervals on a separate day. I will be doing two more workouts between now and Monday and then I am on a vacation for 5 days. I will be doing lots of walking at the zoo and Sea World, so it will be a nice recovery period. My plan is to continue when I get back and finish stage 3 in two weeks. Hopefully with my vacation and Easter, I won't gain too much weight. I am finally seeing a downward trend (slight) on the scale. I am impressed that I have stuck with a rotation for so long. It is a great program. Keep up the great work ladies!

I am halfway through Stage 1! I am started to be on the second half tomorrow

LadyNoir · 03-14-2008, 10:19 AM

I have one more workout in Stage 2 to do on Monday then it's on to Stage 3. I took a break before 2 and plan to take another one after 3.

nancysmithwp · 03-14-2008, 07:41 PM

I have four workouts left in Stage I.

realcdn · 03-14-2008, 07:49 PM

Stage 1, workout A2

(as a true beginner I will do 24 workouts though instead of 16)

KayB · 03-14-2008, 08:19 PM

This morning I did Stage 1 workout 5A! Felt like a beast!

jessie · 03-14-2008, 09:08 PM

Stage 2, Workout #3 tomorrow

nutbar · 03-14-2008, 10:12 PM

I'm in Stage 3, getting ready to do my first B workout tomorrow.

I took a break between Stages 1 and 2 but none between 2 and 3. With the way life happens around here, I figured I'd break something and get a forced break soon anyway. If not, I'll probably be taking a break between Stages 3 and 4.

climban · 03-15-2008, 07:25 AM

I have to do one more AMRAP and then I take a rest week before moving to Stage 2. My body is getting tired from 3 NROLW workouts a week and one climbing session so some recovery time is very welcome!
