Well here is what I think of the program/exercises/nutrition so far:

1. Chest/Back/Abs workout-Very difficult, but I know if I stick with it I'm going to see great results.

2. Plyometrics-Probably the next most difficult workout next to Chest/Back/Abs

3. Shoulders/Arms/Abs-Again another great workout, not quite as difficult as Monday. I'm thinking this will be a great one for defining the arms out completely, and the abs workout is the same all 3 days, but has some very intense moves that I feel like no other and I've done tons of ab moves on my own previously.

4. Yoga-Oh man, thought it would be cake, but the first 45 minutes of this is very difficult with balance and flexibility, the last 45 is easier, but still difficult for me and stretching and core work.

5. Legs/Back/Abs- I don't think my legs will bulk on this, but I know they will get stronger with all the lunges, body weight squats, calf raise exercises that are hell, and wall squats that are horrible. The back workout goes back to pullups from Monday, and I know they will work wonders in 90 days

6. Kenpo-Well I'm not very coordinated. When he does like jab, cross, uppercut, jab or something like that, I get all confused on which hand to move. Kind of like that pat your head rub your belly, I'm hoping I get more coordinated to keep up. Plus my legs aren't very flexible (hip flexors) for all the kicks.

7. X-stretch-still felt like a workout because I'm so tight, but it felt great afterwards.

Running results-My Tues and Thurs tempo and interval workouts didn't suffer from the high protein diet, but my long run on Saturday did suffer. I was suppose to do 14 miles, but only managed 12 as I felt that I was running out of steam. It could have been the boredom of treadmill running too since I had to run on treadmills due to ice in the early morning and then squeezing in the treadmill workout in between work.

Results-I'm not testing BF weekly, just monthly, but according to the scales I lost 2 pounds. I think that is mostly to nutrition and my extra running. When looking in the mirror, I feel that I already see results in the midsection.
