Last night was the 3rd week of Core Synergistics. I have to say…our flexibility is improving. I can definitely tell a difference in my stretching. Kat’s sister Holly is here and we invited her to do the workout with us if she wanted to. Holly elected to give it a shot and we were sure to inform her that some of the exercises were not easy, at least the first time. We were blasting through the workout and doing great. Holly did well too despite cutting the workout short. I can’t say that I didn’t find it tough the first time either. But she was pretty impressed with the program as a whole and wants to see how it turns out for both Kat and I.

Sweat was still rolling off us during Core today. If you’re not sweating, you’re NOT working!! I upped my “Stacked Push-ups” count by 10 today and hit 30 reps. Sweet! However, I still haven’t started any morning core exercises once I get out of bed. Maybe it’s because I know that I’m going to get a killer workout when I get home at night. Thus far, I would have to say that AbRipper X is the toughest workout! Bar none! Just like Tony Horton says…”I hate this workout BUT I love this workout!” Kat and I second that statement. AbRipper is just that…ALL ABS…11 moves, 25 reps each. Now even though that doesn’t sound like a lot, it will KICK YOUR BUTT. There is still a couple of moves I cannot do especially since Tony chains about 3 similar moves together and expects your to rep out 25 per move! BUT…we do the best we can and hope toward the end of the program that we’ll be able to keep up.

Lookout Cardio X…here I come!
