Default stage 1, day 1 can feel it in my abs

Well I finally started, after reading this forum and waiting for the book to arrive. Everything went well until the prone jack knife, i couldnt do a single one! I kept falling off, so managed to pull off a few push ups and that really worked my abs. I havent done a lot of weight work before, only stuff in circuit classes and on machines, so I was surprised by how much my abs are feeling it after doing multi joint compound exercises. I love this book, its a real challenge. and this forum is great, with everyone being really supportive to each other and complete beginners like myself

I just started last week, and even though I had been exercising and done weight training before, I was really sore all week. After the third workout the pain eased and I feel much better this week.

If you have problems next time, you could just finish off your sets with normal jackknifes..

Glad you enjoyed yourself.

And welcome, both of you.

Talking now I feel it in my pecs!

thanks for the support, its now the day after and although Im sitting down at the desk job, I can really feel a good ache at the top of my pecs, and a bit in the abs, but not anything in the legs, which means either my legs are stronger than I think or the weight wasnt heay enough.. Im looking forward to workout 1 B now, too see where that hits me

I have a stupid question about putting in a signature.
