Day 28 - rest day and the end of Month One

Yesterday I did Plyometric Cardio Circuit for the last time. Month one is officially complete. I am honestly not looking forward to this recovery week, 6 days of the same workout sounds boring!!

This morning I woke up bright and early at 5:45am. So I got up and went for a run outside. In this heat that really is the best time of the day, before it gets to obnoxiously hot. I got in 3 miles and didn't see one car. I guess my body is getting used to early morning workouts when I can't even sleep in on my off days.

Measurements:
Arms - 10.75 (loss of 1 inch per arm)
Chest - 35.25 (loss of 0.75 inches. Not sure I am happy about losing inches here, but I will take the good with the bad.)
Waist - 30.5 (loss of 1 inch around the waist. Nice!!)
Hips - 38.25 (loss of 1.75 inches, Holy Wow!)
Legs - 23.5 (no loss, but it really is hard to tell if you are measuring the exact same spot on your legs. No worries, my legs definitely feel more muscular than they were a month ago.)

For a grand total of 5.5 inches in month 1. I still can't see the difference, but everyone on the team beachbody meassage boards says that is common and you start to see real results in month 2 so I am hanging in there, I am clearly doing something right, to be losing inches.

Tomorrow I will weigh in and have that to report. (I am crossing my fingers that I have finally broken 150.)
