Phase 3, Week 1, Day 5

"Legs and Back" followed by Ab Ripper-X was the workout on this Saturday morning that I completed. I can't say I was completely motivated to do the session today, but I pushed and made it through. Probably the hardest part was the pull ups. Even though I've probably seen the biggest percentage increase in improvement with this exercise, it sucks! I don't use a chair, or get any help at all ... it's just me pulling up 170 pounds of me as many times as possible. Judging by the pictures, I know I'm reaping the benefits from my back profile, but that doesn't make doing them any more fun!

The Ab Ripper routine is interesting too. Even though I know my form has improved a lot, and I can do each routine well (though still now keeping my feet off the ground during scissors or mason twists), I'm pooped at the end everytime!
