Don't Smash your Face in

That was one of Tony's sweet words of wisdom about doing tricep extensions and he was right, I didn't smash my face in and I am better for it. I decided to increase the resistance of the workout and move up to the next set of bands. That made many of the exercises better. The longer movement such as the rows were the most effected by the change. I think I need to tinker with the size of the loop in my bands but overall it was a success. But what I really want to talk about is the ab ripper.

Tony stresses that it is not ab ripper 100 or 200 it is 330. I think he is implying it is much harder than a standard ab workout. If you have been following my blog you know the workout is very tough for my tummy. I stuck with doing less reps and hoping to make it through the workout. Today was the first day I was able to get through the workout at the reduced repetitions. It was about half the number tony wants but I will get there. I realize of course by the time I get to doing all the repetitions there will be more modifications I will do to make things harder....but one step at a time. For dinner I had a sweet sandwich and some light yogurt it was very good. I snapped a sweet picture of it so I could share with the world.  I am trying to eat a little better while keeping the diet to the best of my ability. I know I am not exactly losing weight but I am looking a little leaner. I have read online that often the weight takes time to come off as you building muscle.
