Day 51, 52, 53 , 54, 55 Tapout XT

It's been quite the Tapout week. I feel stronger, lighter, and fitter then  in past weeks. I have been working out like a mad woman doing TapouT XT and  building a deck while re-landscaping my backyard. I even had a chance to  work on my tan while working outside. Always a plus! The workouts are  getting easier and my body is starting to really change. Can't wait till  day 60 for weigh-in. I think the scale is going to move! I am most  impressed so far with my increase in upper body strength. All the push ups  and band training is really starting to pay off. I feel like I could lift  some serious iron! Granted I'm not but the extra strength came in handy  this weekend while building and working outside.  Diet wise I haven't been  as strict as in the past but still no fast food or alcohol but a whole lot  more grain and carbs than in previous weeks. It doesn't seem to be hurting  me though as long as I keep up with the workouts.

Day 50 TapouT XT

Rest Day -  I worked outside on the yard. Lost of lifting. Feel the burn! Ready for tomorrow's workout!

Breakfast: honey bunches of oats
Snack: oat clusters
Lunch: chicken caesar salad
Dinner: beef and veggies

Day 49 TapouT XT

Cardio XT + Ultimate Abs - Today was the first time I used the weighted gloves for the cardio workout and boy did it make a difference. I felt the difference everywhere. Mike's right you need to get the weighted gloves. The punches are harder, the running takes more concentration, and the jumping jacks are killer. Today was a long workout with 48 mins of cardio and then another 15 of ab work, but it didn't feel as long as it sometimes does since I was concentrating on just keeping up. Those gloves really pushed me today. Rest day tomorrow and I need it!

Breakfast: honey bunches of oats
Snack: oat and yogurt clusters
Lunch: salmon and asparagus
Dinner: chicken and brown rice

Day 48 TapouT XT

Legs and Back - First day back after 3 days of digging more holes and pulling up sod and I have to say Tapout XT was a welcome vacation from gardening. After three days of bending over, legs and back was rough. Felt it everywhere I was suppose to and some places I don't think I was suppose to feel it. Still on the Tapout XT band wagon and still loving it! Just keep it up and you will see results!

Breakfast: honey bunches of oats
Snack: 90 cal pack of oat clusters
Lunch: beef soup and an orange
Dinner: grilled salmon, carrots and broccoli
Snack: vanilla wafers

Day 45, 46, & 47 TapouT XT

I'm not going to lie instead of doing Tapout these past few days I ripped up my yard. I missed the last two workouts and replaced them with ripping up sod, moving wood, digging holes, and working in the sun. I didn't think I was going to replace them, but I wasn't physically capable of working out and doing the manual labor that the back yard entailed. Tomorrow is legs and back and I am ready! 

Breakfast: honey bunches of oat (all 3 days)
Lunch: soup(day 45), club sandwich on wheat(day 46), pizza (day 47)
Dinner: Sushi (day 45), chicken and brown rice (day 46), pizza (day 47)

Day 44 Tapout XT

Plyo - Kicked my butt. Totally worth it. Always feel a little sore after this one. Getting easier everyday though. To quit does not exist!

Breakfast: honey bunches of oats
Lunch: baked chicken, corn, green beans
Dinner: soup beef and barely

Day 43 Rest Day

Rest Day: I did just I was suppose to rested. Nothing else to report today.
