It's been a few days since my last post so I have lots of updates! Today is 4 weeks into the challenge. I can already see a big difference, I am so glad I started 4 weeks ago! Even Jonathan is already noticing changes even though they say it takes 8 weeks for your family to notice :). Tomorrow will be 30 days so I will measure and let you all know my status!!
Tonight I usually do a 30 min spin class followed by a 45 minute spin and 45 min abs class. The run intervals have been making huge progress with me (I've been increasing speeds, my last one was 3 min at 7.5 mph and 1.5 min at 8 mph which is the fastest I've done yet!). Thinking I might do run intervals and then the full 1 hour abs class and miss spin tonight or just do the 30 min spin class, run intervals, abs... not sure yet. They REALLY work, HIGHLY recommend them if your body is capable :).
