I started using...Parker, you're exactly right! I started using ankle weights and 40 reps during Sequence 1 because the sheer amount of time it took to do 60 reps plus 60 minutes of cardio plus 80 to 100 reps abs was a nightmare that I couldn't quite stand. I've also starting splitting up the 60 min of cardio. 30 in the day and 30 in the evening. I hope I still get the same benefits this way. <br /><br />I did take before pics! I can't wait until my after pics look delightful.Jaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12127148197149787796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6209132802255796656.post-91781106040853039332012-02-26T14:54:30.463-06:002012-02-26T14:54:30.463-06:00Bravo on the additional weight loss!!

I opted for wearing ankle weights and went up to 40 reps (because I didn't have time for 60 reps-- it would have taken me 3 1/2 hours to get through a damn workout!)<br /><br />Keep it up girlfriend, you're almost there!

My feeling is as long as you are moving that is the main thing. I try not to be overly concerned on being perfect with all her moves, the program still works when we are not.Tracy2011https://www.blogger.com/profile/11593644794340360376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6209132802255796656.post-39933649922514213332012-02-23T15:26:35.445-06:002012-02-23T15:26:35.445-06:00LOL @ a double dose or ridculousness.

I plan on cutting back on some of that or maybe even giving it up all together for the Lenten season! Who knows! LOL. <br /><br />Thanks so much for those kind words because I totally don't always feel like I'm being all that impressive with all of my stumblings here and there. I'll beat this thing yet though! I envy you for being done with BC though!

Thanks for telling me. I think I w...Okay, awesome! Thanks for telling me. I think I will try to be more consistent about getting my 60 minutes of cardio in each day. I sometimes only do 40 minutes and if I'm really pressed for time I do 25 or 30, but you're right, I notice more of a change on the scale when I am doing 60. <br /><br />One more question for you. I bought a rebounder recently and have been doing half of the DC on the floor and the other half on the rebounder, but I'm curious if people are attempting to do the DC from the DVD on the rebounder, freestyling or doing her tel aviv videos from You Tube. What I have been doing varies, I will either freestyle or try to do the DC from the DVD on the rebounder (which is hard). I haven't tried the tel aviv videos yet.Jaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12127148197149787796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6209132802255796656.post-298750010409537482012-02-23T14:03:14.780-06:002012-02-23T14:03:14.780-06:00Oh girl, I so feel you on having a hate day.

But you're doing amazingly, and I'm so impressed with how dedicated you are to the Method - that was one reason that I didn't go back to BC and started Meta instead, because I couldn't deal with working out for two hours every day. You're an inspiration!! xMelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999822985290762358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6209132802255796656.post-61904082919464549692012-02-22T21:03:32.755-06:002012-02-22T21:03:32.755-06:00Hi Jae,

I still do 60 mins of DC 6 x a week in continuity. I could cut it shorter, but I love the endorphin rush and the energy it gives me for my work day. I will say that I did drop most of my weight when I upped it to 60 mins. I also love to eat, and this helps keep me in balance.Tracy2011https://www.blogger.com/profile/11593644794340360376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6209132802255796656.post-75296476031311217582012-02-22T14:58:52.428-06:002012-02-22T14:58:52.428-06:00Hi Tracy!

That's not to say Meta won't be challenging, but hey, who knew I would actually be looking forward to only working out an hour a day, 6 days a week! Haha. <br /><br />I know that you have gotten awesome results with Meta, but did you only do the 30 minutes of DC and 30 minutes of MS or did you up the cardio to 60 minutes??Jaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12127148197149787796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6209132802255796656.post-32636728651634779382012-02-21T21:58:19.183-06:002012-02-21T21:58:19.183-06:00Hi Jae,

Your only human and there will be levels that you dread, but just do the best you can do and push through, the results will keep you going. I didn't do the bootcamp, just started with meta, but a lot of ladies have acheived great results with bootcamp and it helped them go into meta easier. Good luck on your journey. Keep it up.

Tracy said it would be like a part-time job, but really it's more like full-time. Thankfully I'm almost done!

Definitely not a good diet to do when you work 8 hours a day!!<br /><br />Good on you for sticking it out:) Keep it up ...Unpublished Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03152652424684567118noreply@blogger.com
