Core De Force | Week One

I’ve started a new workout program and it feels so good to not know what’s coming up next. There is something about the unknown that keeps things fresh and exciting. I’ve finished two rounds of 21DF (regular and remixed) and since then I’ve chosen Core De Force to complete. I didn’t plan to do this workout program as I really was expecting to go through 21DF Extreme, but as I didn’t have all of the required workout material to do so obviously I couldn’t complete that program. I literally jumped two feet in with this CDF program. When I bought BOD CDF was one of my first workouts and I almost died (if you need proof check out my time lapse on IG). I loved the workouts because they were fun, but it was intense. Now, I’m getting through the workouts easier, but the sweat is still pouring off of me. I’m ready for a month of CDF ! I will be using the Yoga Retreat as my “active recovery” workout because I know that I have to really workout on my balance.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK

Getting through these workouts is a highlight enough! If you’ve ever done a CDF workout you know what I’m talking about! Working for that break is something I definitely look forward to. I’m fighting for that summer bod.

PROGRESS

I will be honest I’ve been disappointed in the scale this week.  My carb loading weekend from last week is haunting me and finding myself regretting all those damn tortilla chips and pistachios. (Insert crying face here). I gained 2lbs from my weekend since I’ve ended my 21DF Round Two and I haven’t been able to shake it off mentally and physically.  I’ve been eating just like I have been, but I haven’t really lost any weight. I know that I shouldn’t base my victories on the scale, but it’s difficult to do so especially when it was so satisfying seeing that number to go down the past six weeks. After over reacting and getting back on track I was able to get back down to my end weight from 21DF. I have to appreciate my non scale victories like my pants, shirts and underwear falling off of me. Six weeks ago, I was squeezing into my clothes on the brink of having to buy new bigger clothes. That’s so huge for me! My favorite part of my body right now are my obliques. Who knew those babies were still there!?!?

This next week I’m looking forward to my harder workouts as well as switching up my food prep. I can only have so much veggies egg cups! J Waymon is also working on hiding that damn scale from me ! Positivity in my workouts is beaming off of me and rubbing onto Haidyn. She's now telling me how proud she is of me whenever I finish a workout . That's motivation enough to keep going!
